I missed my ride Take it all in stride This’ll be my night Had a feeling I could meet someone Got me feeling like I’m never gonna get enough Work the crowd Slip a line but the bands too loud Here for the night Gonna catch some eyes Or at least I’ll try Shoved to the side And I spilled my wine Shit, what’s my line? Had a feeling I could meet someone Got me feeling like I’m never gonna get enough Work the crowd Slip a line but the bands too loud Had a feeling I could be someone Had a feeling and I couldn’t ever give it up Be someone Who can roll with every punch He passed me by Guess I’m not his type Wonder what he likes She dropped me a sign In the bathroom line Now she’s with that guy But I won’t be wasting my time On garbage highs I can go all night Had a feeling I could meet someone Got me feeling like I’m never gonna get enough Work the crowd Slip a line but the bands too loud Had a feeling I could be someone Had a feeling and I couldn’t ever give it up Be someone Who can roll with every punch

Uh oh you’re lost on a cheap high Wide eyes on the hunt for your next ride Uh oh, they’re calling you out tonight Uh oh, you’re drunk on the limelight All love but you reek of pride Uh oh, we’re calling you in tonight Cut it out if you’re ready or not Turn it down cos we’ve all had enough Rinse it out cuz you gotta move on Ridin fast and you’re gonna fall off Fall off Uh oh you run but you can’t hide Bring lights and you fall to the dark side Uh oh it’s calling you out tonight Uh oh, turn a blind eye to hindsight Good luck doing time for a big smile Cut it out if you’re ready or not Turn it down cos we’ve all had enough Rinse it out cuz you gotta move on Ridin fast and you’re gonna fall off Fall off

Shake me up And bring me down I said girl you gotta go You been stepping on my toes I can’t feel the beat when you’re here She don’t seem to understand Blank face, takes me by the hand Her voice drowning out what I hear Leave me alone Me oh my Watch where you’re walking I won’t wait to cut you out Your time is ticking I’m so close to shutting down Need you to leave and It’s not hard to figure out Your time is ticking I’m so close to shutting down You’re set on sticking Round just to bring me down Seek me out To run your mouth Turn around For crying out loud I said girl you gotta go You been fucking up the flow I can’t loosen up when you’re near Tell me what I gotta do She don’t seem to have a clue Won’t hear what she don’t wanna hear Leave me alone Me oh my Watch where you’re walking I won’t wait to cut you out Your time is ticking I’m so close to shutting down Show you out Show you out Show You Out

So you know you know it all Chase the lines you draw In the dark Reaching out of sight Still you hold on tight Sure you’ve got a rise Out of me If you get the chance Save me one last dance Bring me to my knees Please Look me in the eyes Leave the talking to me Cuz you can’t see You’ve got it all, you’ve got it all Send your past out to sea Waves can set you free Just walk it off, just walk it off Hold somebody, You just need somebody To have and hold For the night She said If you told me why You feel drawn to hide I would seek All that we could be Just say what you mean Take a step, breathe Please Look me in the eyes Leave the talking to me Cuz you can’t see You’ve got it all, you’ve got it all Send your past out to sea Waves can set you free Just walk it off, just walk it off

Lovely Oh what you do to me Lonely All cause you don’t love me / Know that you don’t want me You call, don’t you know you’re always in my thoughts Counting the forget-me-nots Can’t we rewind? Oh oh Break off, don’t you know you got me all undone Each question is a loaded one I said I feel fine Who am I to you? What am I S’posed to do? Pretend like, I don’t know you? I’m only Receding Into the gap you’re leaving Lovely It’s what you do to me Lonely All cause you don’t love me Slowly Forget that you know me Lonely All cause you don’t love me / I know you don’t love me We talk, don’t you know you leave me wanting more Can I be what you’re looking for Won’t you be mine? Oh oh Stay calm, I don’t ever wanna know for sure If we coulda made it something more I’ll leave you behind Who am I to you? What am I S’posed to do? Pretend like, I don’t know you? I’m only Receding Into the gap you’re leaving Lovely it’s what you do to me Lonely All cause you don’t love me Slowly Forget that you know me Lonely All cause you don’t love me / I know you don’t love me

So much to prove It’s on your face Please play it smart Gotta keep steady for us You wanna stay Feel in the dark Gotta get with it or fall apart Keep it inside you Tear me apart Say you’ll do it for us Gotta run Can’t stay here When it all Gets too real Oooh But you’re so cold You won’t come home, I know Your lights out on the road Now Come back around Shake out the clouds, you’ll see You passed the price to me Can’t make you choose To stay awake Reel, start and stop On your trail of mistakes I wanna say Feel what you feel Better stop sinking to empty heights Learn to share the burden My words are lost Did you throw them away? Gotta run Hear the call I can’t Break your fall Oooh But you’re so cold You won’t come home, I know Your lights out on the road Now Come back around Shake out the clouds, you’ll see You passed the price to me

Your head, filling up with his words And you tell me that it don’t hurt We said worthy bridges won’t burn Here’s to hoping that you might learn We’ll wait while your judgment falters But hey We don’t give a fuck about it They don’t give a fuck about it We don’t give a fuck about I said let the loser go Tell him, time to hit the road Don’t give him another go I said doo doo doo I said does your mother know? And where did your father go? I said I don’t even know I said doo doo doo Don’t waste everything you might be There’s no way you see him clearly Are you betting every daydream On a million dollar maybe We’ll wait til you see what we see But hey We don’t give a fuck about it They don’t give a fuck about it We don’t give a fuck about I said let the loser go Tell him, time to hit the road Don’t give him another go I said doo doo doo I said does your mother know? And where did your father go? I said I don’t even know I said doo doo doo

He wants you Just to lose you And confuse you Chase the girl he thought you could be But knows he can’t keep You know he’s Hard to please He can’t see Loving you should be easy Easy You’re only, you’re only young once Wake up embrace your luck Oh oh oh Now Girl you gotta get out You only, you only want love He can’t give you enough Oh oh oh How Gotta let it all out Don’t you know at the end of the day You must walk away (All) the ways he Drove you crazy Called you baby Made you think he would let you inside You’re only, you’re only young once Wake up embrace your luck Oh oh oh Now Girl you gotta get out You only, you only want love He can’t give you enough Oh oh oh How Gotta let it all out You’re all in He’s stalling You can’t win This could never be easy Easy All that time By his side You know why It was never a waste of your time You lived for the ride Catch your eye With his smile Realign One last time You can’t say When things changed He won’t say It’s a game Catch his eye With your smile One last time This could never be easy Easy

about

Beginning at Vassar College in the fall of 2016, the story of Spud Cannon charts the emotional journey of finding oneself with vignettes of rock and roll highs and lows interspersed throughout. All, mostly, before the quintet of Meg Matthews (lead vox), Jackson Walker Lewis (guitar), Ari Bowe (keys), Lucy Horgan (bass) and Benjamin Scharf (drums) could buy a drink (legally).

Spud Cannon’s forthcoming third full-length, "Good Kids Make Bad Apples," bristles with an immediacy inspired in-part by all-night, definitely-allowed recording sessions at the Vassar squash courts. Each song recorded in the Wall of Sound-style court are pure takes capturing the energy of the Spud Cannon live experience in its purest form to date.

Returning from a stressful tour that nearly broke them apart for good, the album’s nine songs find the band locked in on the other side of turmoil stronger than ever. Reflections on relationships, knowing one’s worth, or simply just wanting to have a good time are all spun through Spud Cannon’s infectious rock sound. Like a good friend who knows exactly how to cheer you up or clock an ex from across the room and steer you away, "Good Kids Make Bad Apples" is a hand on the shoulder in the times that led you to yourself.

"Good Kids Make Bad Apples" out June 25th via Good Eye Records.
