A return to Old Skool Lettuce aesthetics. Recorded live in one take with no overdubs or edits. Just a crappy keyboard and a microphone.

If King Missile and Portishead had a baby at a Cure concert - that's us.
Mayhem Lettuce has been crafting sad, strange, sometimes silly, spoken-word songs from rural Illinois since 1993. We're two beardy dudes raised on King Missile with delusions of Portishead.

Story behind the song
The verses of this song are about living with somebody who doesn't love you. The chorus is a chorus I came up with years and years ago and have been trying to cram into a song forever. It basically translates to "Cheer up".
Lyrics
There are days when I feel so disgenuine, so uncorrect, so malproper There are days when I shine onto you like a grateful star There are days when I don't know which way is up Spirit sent the rain to taunt me to tell me to end it The days go by so fast But the months drag on There are days when I fear it will never rain again Spirit sent the rain to taunt me to tell me to end it The center holds for one more day And that's all I need: One more day One more fantasy One more morning where it all feels okay Even if only for a moment Spirit sent the rain to taunt me to tell me to end it
