Written from a very interesting perspective, this is a story told via clever references to one of my favorite musicians/artists, Annie Clark. Also known as, St. Vincent.
Featuring trumpeter, Charlie Burchill and Norwegian singer/songwriter, Helene Gullsvåg.
lyrics
ST. ANNIE
(N. Parent)
The party started late, I was the first to arrive.
Some vinyl spinning fast, blasting off unknown vibes.
Strolling up, right with the feeling.
Beat pounding floor to the ceiling.
I've taken all I can from these strangers soaked in sin.
Talking quick, just to get away from them.
My eyes have seen enough to leave.
The neighbors shout out angrily.
Oh, I'm guessing I should stick around. (My patience is wearing thin)
Tell me, is St. Annie still in town? (I hoped that she would drop in)
She left her number on my phone and then she'd gone.
I hope she will remember me.
A woman enters quick, dashing into the fray.
With all the people 'round, she didn't have room to stay.
Her face is lost, too late to stare
At the slight curves, red lips, and dark black hair.
Slowly I am walking through the crowd.
Tripped up, spun left, and right into her blouse.
Now, now! Does she know?
Oh, no!
Well, here I go!
Caught up in the act of seeming sly. (Our faces both drawn with lead)
She takes me up the stairs, I'm being shy. (I'm thrown right upon the bed)
Her soft bright eyes are all I see, I say,
"Would you marry me?"
She tells me not to call anymore.
