lyrics

scratches on my window pane
I'm riding highway like major vein
vaguely leading to some beating love organ
or am I still sore again

are you all chiseled into your city
mister all-work-and-no-foreplay
are you all glued to your routine
the one that makes me seem
so extra ordinary
and are you ordinarily scared
of the extra that could be there

the sun is setting on my life in the front view
it's orange on my left
in the rear view
it's me and you
and everywhere else I've left

did I love you in a minute
mister jump right in then out of it
am I just up there singing to you daddy
just because you're there
and I can still smell you in my hair

I'm approaching
forty billion light years
from your universe

I'm wondering why
I carry you around in my verse
cuz I'm an evercoming coming new
newcomer to you

I'm rolling down this road
want to unlock heavy load
want to hold my heart open
like a newly singing mouth
left some of that part behind this morning
left some of it smoking in the south
did you notice some missing
did some of my heart today
run right off the top
of your breakfast plate
did you wake up late
did you taste what you ate
did you erase our date
because some people do marry
what makes them blue

is there a limit to speed
is yours posted
I want to raise my glass
way up in there and toast it
I want to slide into your drive
just coast in it
I want to breathe in
make the most of it

Bitch Los Angeles, California

The longstanding queer music icon Bitch makes witchy poet pop. She does it with violins and synthesizers, and the songs she writes are spectral, heartbreaking, political, and beautiful. "Bitchcraft" is like Joni Mitchell set to a click track, it’s queer Cyndi Lauper. It’s neon pink, in your face, ready to hex you with its brilliance. ... more
