Menomena - Heavy Is As Heavy Does

I won't lie: I paused my music to hear this one out expecting to be thoroughly disappointed.

This maintained a smile on my face. Thanks for the introduction to Menomena.

Is that a theremin I hear in there? Sounds too tonally continuous to be a guitar. If it is guitar work, however, then that earns them more respect from me.

Here's another pleasant discovery for me that was made recently (I had no idea a complete version existed):

[HeavyMetalParkingLot]

Say whaaaaaaaa?

[megabyteme]

Excellent, doobs!

Deserving of lyrics. Amazingly, the first 12 hits on Goofle had the same incorrect wording.

Menomena – Heavy Is As Heavy Does

heavy are the branches
hanging from my fucked up family tree
and heavy was my father
a stoic man of pride and privacy

and i don't care much for wishful thinking
it's heavy as i breathe
because i don't believe in second chances
it's heavy as i leave

as prideful as a man he was
proud my father never was of me

i did it for survival
but i looked like the asshole anyway

you ate up all my breadcrumbs
now i'm lost alone inside your cave

among six billion people
i want the ones who never wanted me

i'm not one for religion
but i can't seem to ditch this imagery

and i don't care much for wishful thinking
it's heavy as i breathe
because i don't believe in second chances
it's heavy as i leave
and i don't care much for wishful thinking
i can't breathe...
