Kings and queens of small town scenes
Beasts shitting in their waterholes
Hugs and kisses are hits and misses
Lipstick smears from sloppy messes
Dead end thugs, Persian rugs
Desperation, perspiration
Predilection for addiction
Round and round, round and round, round and round
Let me off, let me out
I don’t know what you’re on or what you’re on about
Or why it’s conveyed in a shout
Let me off, let me out
It’s clear that my word here carries next to no clout
And you’ve all the wisdom of a Boy Scout
Sycophantic declarations
Circle jerk jubilations
Jukebox DJ arbiter
Conch shell wielding superstars
Small time big guys holding court
Beer breath cheer squad to exhort
Predilection for addiction
Round and round, round and round, round and round
Let me off, let me out
I don’t know what you’re on or what you’re on about
Or why it’s conveyed in a shout
Let me off, let me out
It’s clear that my word here carries next to no clout
And you’ve all the wisdom of a Boy Scout

You can tell me yours and I’ll say mine
First up I’ll have to file a restraining order against time
That bastard’s been on my case since 1985
And I took it for granted
When you come from nothing it’s easy to feel
Like everything is something but I want it to be real
Did I lose you? Confuse you? I’m sorry
I lost myself too
Don’t give up the ghost, Hank
If there’s one thing you can bank on
It’s that the albatross eventually rots and falls away from
Your neck that’s still so young
And I’m not tellin you not to have fun
But you’ve been sprintin for a while
And it’s a long run
Please don’t idolise these friends who live fast and die old
Romanticising sad dead men and if I may be so bold
They won’t contribute a great thing to the canon of rock and roll
That they’re so devoted to
Don’t give up the ghost, Hank
If there’s one thing you can bank on
It’s that the albatross eventually rots and falls away from
Your neck that’s still so young
And I’m not tellin you not to have fun
But you’ve been sprintin for a while
And it’s a long run

Go Fever Austin, Texas
Go Fever is an Austin-based band fronted by Australian singer-songwriter Acey Monaro, known for combining 70’s rock riffs,
saccharine pop hooks and intimate lyrics delivered in an outside voice.
In June 2020, they headed into White Denim’s Radio Milk studio and the result is the New Wave-adjacent, dance punk-curious Velvet Fist, their first release on a label- Nine Mile Records.
