BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE: IF YOU LISTEN TO MUSIC, SIGN OUR MESSAGE BOARD AND LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. WE KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE. OK. Domingo... when you hear the word, only two things should come to mind, regardless of race, creed, or gender: "good music" and "man, I WANT them". On our new album "Everything Is Perfect", we basically took our old sound, sped it up by about 30 BPM, and made it rock harder. So listen, enjoy and love.

Story behind the song
basically, i hate the concept of newbury st. in boston... this is pretty much a really cynical song about materialism, etc., as seen through the eyes of me, on newbury st. i think that i actually managed to include sarcasm in every single line of the song.
Lyrics
sink your teeth into the skin that we're all drowning in it tastes much better when it's tanned all brown again newbury street is the home to the kind of sin that god will never punish you for but no one ever says "hey when i grow up i wanna buy a life that i put on when i wake up" it eats away at you like wine in a paper cup 'til you spill it on that nice new suit that you got down the street by the church where you know the acting is just much worse and so you think to yourself "at least i don't have to search anymore" so tell yourself that you need it to cover up that you want it if they don't completely love it you can choose not to flaunt it CHORUS: singing, "i'm on fire i've got expensive trends and my expensive friends can tell i traded my mind for a silver line that fits around my life a kind of upper status sign and i'd do it all again" saturday well it's the first nice day of the year you gotta pick the car that best shows off your career of peddling useless shit to people who've learned to fear being seen with anything less than that new pair of jeans or that fancy purse you know you could have it a whole lot worse and so you think to yourself "at least i don't have to search anymore" so tell yourself that you need it to cover up that you want it if they don't completely love it you can choose not to flaunt it CHORUS sink your teeth into the skin that we're all drowning in it tastes much better when it's tanned all brown again newbury street is the home to the kind of sin that god will never punish you for so tell yourself that you need it to cover up that you want it if they don't completely love it you can choose not to flaunt it CHORUS
