GUM
He felt down like a gum.
He can’t speak, you might
Motor’s humming to parents house
His boring life is there.
Foggy night
on the run
a touch so slight
to the wheel
Creepy sky
with no stars
Too much clouds
to stay here... Lonely!
Just a gum, nasty gum
A chewing plastic
on your teeth.
A sprawling, 25-song set from Pete Yorn complete with covers of Springsteen and The Smiths capture him at his unguarded best. Bandcamp New & Notable May 16, 2020
