lyrics

Break-up song on the radio
We’re as close as a slow dance
If that’s wrong, tell me so
Tell me something

Oh, say what you need to say
(The waiting’s the worst of it)
Oh, come on!
Ever since the world began it was this way
You’ll step back and see?
That’s not enough for me

Do we wait like we’ve always waited for you?
Waited like good girls are supposed to do
For love we’re not sure will come through
Waiting for you

Choose some nerve, some courage
Or choose old and lonely
I’m handing you the apple now
This is not our Eden

Oh, say
Say what you need to say
(Before I lose all respect)
Oh, come on!
Ever since the world began it was this way
There is no good time so...
Knuckle down or let go

Wasp Summer Berlin, Germany

After five years in Berlin, Europe’s grimy,
sleepless City of Fun, Wasp Summer makes
rock that is both agitated and dreamlike, offering grinding bass and taut drums
with spare, spaced-out guitar and
adventurous voice. The songs talk about resilience
and breaking with the past. ... more
