Loved 01:32
I loved when you I loved it when you called me back to bed on our first date The stars shining I loved it when you kissed me in your car with the moon and the stars shining bright through the sunroof of your mom's 2003 Acura ILX blue-grey you got it on your 19th birthday

Suburban girlfriend Suburban girlfriend I need to be in your arms I just can't explain Suburban countryside I need to be in the open-wide I need to feel that release It's just not the same We'd go "ohh" My suburban girlfriend My suburban girlfriend My suburban girlfriend Suburban memories I wonder if they remember me? I wonder how things have changed I hope they're the same As my suburban gurlfriend I wonder if you feel the same as back then And I wonder how you have changed I hope you feel the same We'd go "ohh" My suburban girlfriend My suburban girlfriend My suburban girlfriend

Friday with Frida the Brooklyn waitress You're looking quite pretty in your Sunday dress And you kiss me and you ask about my day You're quite the difficult nut to crack And I'm an intimacy-phobic acrobat And your boyfriend, he's on tour in the UK You know that I know that he exists Unspoken jealousy that turns and twists And it comes out in the snide remarks I say And I don't wanna seem like I'm getting hung up on labels That's why I'm here in the first place But I'm so hung up on you God, I'm so cliche But your breath quickens too You can't always be this cool! Touchdown U.S.A. Touchdown U.S.A. Touchdown U.S.A. Touchdown U.S.A. Touchdown U.S.A.

U Did Me In 04:26
I don't know where you've gone I don't know where you've been Dunno what turns you on You did me in You gave me strong advice I took it on the chin But it didn't feel so nice It did me in And now My fun can fit on the head of a pin You did me in I haven't eaten all day I haven't shaved all week I haven't slept all month You did me in And now My fun can fit on the head of a pin You did me... in And now I wish we'd gone To all those places we both said we'd never been Like on the very same page It did us in And now my friends ask why I hang around the back of the party Looking threadbare and too thin I just told you why
5.
Things don't break my heart like they used to So many different things I got used to So many rules I learned to apply And things don't make as much sense as they used to You know the world can feel just like voodoo So many things, I can't even ask why Why? Why? Why? Why Thought my life had come to a standstill And then the bad news dropped like an anvil So many cartoon birds circling by And things don't give me pause like they used to A generation stuck in the doo-doo So many wrongs and ya can't ask 'em why Why? Why? Why? Why Someday it'll be over

about

"'TOUCHDOWN U.S.A.' was tracked with my band the Molson Twins in drummer Oliver Molson’s home in Jersey City. I sat with the sessions a couple months, then recorded keys and vocals and mixed it on a 4th-of-July-weekend mushroom binge in my apartment. The results, I hope, are a scabrous mix of Poppy Luv Songs with something a lil scarier — some of the big fat ominous anxiety that permeates everyones' wavelengths these days. The songs are about finding tiny moments of ecstasy, compassion, and erotic confusion amid the massive wave of history. It's 2021 and some of us dopes are still falling in love. <3" — MDL
