lyrics
Woke up screaming last night.
Sleep is a senseless shame.
Beasts of the day, they run wild
Through hallways you made as a child.
I want to sleep for weeks
And be numb to the truth I know:
That nobody really needs you.
So you doubt ‘em, whatever you do.
Because the low, the low,
It’s everywhere.
In the morning air.
We’re born to hurt, baby.
Yeah, the low, the low.
It’s everywhere, it’s everywhere,
It’s everywhere.
The crooks a-bloat in the harbour
And the roses sprout from stone.
And every villain you knew,
They’re blowing kisses at you.
But the moon’s still the spit
Of some fled, fed-up god.
But you don’t want for nothing,
And you just cannot square it.
The love of your life,
From your castle, throwing money,
And she cradles your face
While you’re kneeling in line for the low.
The low, it’s everywhere.
In the morning air.
We’re born to hurt, baby.
Yeah, the low, the low.
It’s everywhere, it’s everywhere.
In everything breathing is the low.
The low, it’s everywhere, it’s everywhere.
It’s everywhere, baby.
Yeah, the low, the low.
It’s everywhere, it’s everywhere,
It’s everywhere.
So, come on, strip me
For some drunken pollution.
Fête me through the cars of a train.
Bombard my heart under pretty sky.
I buried someone one summer.
Since then, over and over and over again,
Oh, the low, the low, it’s everywhere.
In the morning air.
We’re born to hurt, baby.
Yeah, the low, the low.
It’s everywhere, it’s everywhere.
In everything breathing is the low.
The low, it’s everywhere, it’s everywhere.
It’s everywhere, baby.
Yeah, the low, the low.
It’s everywhere, it’s everywhere,
It’s everywhere.
Released in 2001, “The Convincer” is a gentle gem in the Nick Lowe catalog; an anniversary edition provides opportunity for rediscovery. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2021
Erudite chamber pop that hearkens back to the elegant and experimental production of the 1960s, swinging from melancholia to playfulness. Bandcamp New & Notable May 13, 2016
