Lyrics:
The nazis that we hired
For our wedding band
Played your anthem like I wasn’t there
For the father/daughter dance
From the boondocks of Egypt
To the nosebleeds at Calvary
Recite your history of oppression, babe
While you are under me
There’s no doubting the devotion my ancestors had for yours
Now we’ve got all the love to pay for like a thousand different wars
A square foot of empire
Around the peep show slot
I see an avatar of mercy
With the same damn jeembles that I got
The boss wants to be anonymous
The talent wants to be seen
We weren’t paying for your body, lord
We were paying so you could leave
Now who will watch the chorus line stretching from Reno to Rome
Listen, Cherry, I know you love me but say you love me ‘fore you go
Val Kilmer had a wall length mirror just over there
Well, I’m sure he’s someone else now
But he was Batman when he lived here
Maybe he’s Yankee Zulu
Just waiting for the flood
And maybe Mac the Conqueror
With the severed head of love
I’ve seen him wearing aviators and a black baseball hat
Stalking airports ‘cross the bardo quiet as a wildcat
The wheel is turning
From night into day
Everything’s in transition
Everything must change
But none of us here
Will ever see the promised land
None of us here will be there for
Childhood’s end
I see ya
You student debtors
In the watchtower overhead
Lookin for headlights in the driveway
Crying “Dad, look what they did”
Just look
Even their romance made us masters and slaves
And now things keep getting worse while staying so eerily the same
Come build your burial grounds
On our burial grounds
But you won’t kill death that way
I don’t know bout you
But I’ll take the love songs
And give you the future in exchange
I don’t know ‘bout you
But i’ll take the love songs
If this century’s here to stay
I don’t know ‘bout you
But I’ll take the love songs
And the great distance that they came

If there's one thing I can say about Tillman, he always writes at least one song that perfectly captures what it felt like to survive 'that' year.
This is a perfect "farewell to 2022" song.
this song is so apocalyptic, so good

“Media in the 21st Century is just Media from the 20th Century on higher definition screens.” Paraphrased from Mark Fisher
Unexpected but gorgeous guitar solo made of lead.
guitar part in the centre was a welcomed surprise
These are the best lyrics I’ve heard in long time. Incredible.

@@pantalaemon Well I think part of it is explicitly there and part of it is interpretation. I think the last three verses are a pretty explicit rejection of writing Pure Comedy-esque world critic music. “I’ll take the love songs, and give the future in exchange” especially. But really I think the whole song is just Tillman roundaboutly saying how redundant it all is, considering every bad thing just keeps happening over and over anyway. I think the part about Val Kilmer is lampooning himself, how all of his storytelling in the past that people latched onto was really just as redundant as everything else is. A lot going on here, but reality is nothing we can say can even scarcely change things (even things that made him famous), so for now he will take the escapism of the love songs.
**officially visualizing**
We weren’t paying for your body, lord, WE WERE PAYING YOU TO LEAVE. That line hits so hard. Jesus.
this song honestly deserves a music video!
This gave me chills ….. eargasm If you will
Listening to this makes me feel 1:30 am after a night of drinking and on the downslope of the zenith of a buzz going towards a strangely gratifying headache in a world with its wheels coming off.
As someone who spent a lot of time unironically listening to the "Father John Misty's Father John Misty Playlist" on Spotify, I can really hear the influences you took from that music in what I've heard from this album so far. And I LOVE IT! Can't wait to hear the full album💙

What an incredibly dense lyric. I am reminded of my university days trying to decipher Eliot's "The Wasteland." I feel like I will be in the process of figuring this one out for some time to come.

I was very skeptical of this but it's actually 100% true.
Love the subtle changes in the video. The stars move and twinkle until the solo, when they suddenly fade and stop. The lyrics on the TV screen are also a nice touch.
Thanks!! For once again ecstasy with your art.
Reminds me of Mark Fisher in Ghosts of my Life: ‘There’s no time here, not any more’ The final image of the British television series Sapphire and Steel seemed designed to haunt the adolescent mind. The two lead characters, played by Joanna Lumley and David McCallum, find themselves in what seems to be a 1940s roadside café. The radio is playing a simulation of Glenn Miller-style smooth Big Band jazz. Another couple, a man and a woman dressed in 1940s clothes, are sitting at an adjacent table. The woman rises, saying: ‘This is the trap. This is nowhere, and it’s forever.’ She and her companion then disappear, leaving spectral outlines, then nothingness. Sapphire and Steel panic. They rifle through the few objects in the café, looking for something they can use to escape. There is nothing, and when they pull back the curtains, there is only a black starry void beyond the window. The café, it seems, is some kind of capsule floating in deep space.
Super excited to hear the rest of this album wow
Love it! The visuals are beautiful too.
Stunning song
That solo took me by surprise. Nice shredding.
Love this.
Misty is Life!!!!
The scene in this video reminds me of an old restaurant back home. Takes me back there. Thanks for the Visualizer!

Overall I thought this album was kind of mid, but this song in particular is easily one of the best FJM has ever made. Some of the most impactful lyrics I've heard in a while. None of us will see the promised land, none of us will be there for childhoods end. Gives me chills
yess ♥️
Love this very metaphorical description of the historical relationship between the proletariat and the burgeoisie and how the path taken will eventually lead us to barbarism and how, in the end, we must take the best things with us. Quality, not quantity, my friends.

I feel as though this relates to Mark Fisher's book "Ghosts of My Life" which is about how free-market neo-liberal fundamentalisms has killed all novelty within art and culture, as it's inherently unmarketable. Thus we repeat the same culture over and over again. The 21st century is the next 20th century.
Wow, your killing it. G bless

“From Reno to Rome”
Os nazistas que contratamos Para nossa festa de casamento Tocaram seu hino como se eu não estivesse lá Para a dança de pai-filha Dos confins do Egito Para as hemorragias nasais no Calvário Recite sua história de opressão, meu bem Enquanto você está debaixo de mim Não há dúvida da devoção que meus ancestrais tiveram pelos seus Agora temos todo o amor para pagar Como mil guerras diferentes Um metro quadrado do império Em torno do show voyeur Eu vejo um ícone de misericórdia Com os mesmos malditos chiliques que eu tenho O chefe quer ser anônimo O talento quer ser visto Nós não estávamos pagando pelo seu corpo, meu senhor Estávamos pagando para você ir embora Agora quem vai assistir a linha de coro que se estende de Reno a Roma? Ouça, Cherry, eu sei que você me ama, mas diga que me ama antes de partir Val Kilmer tinha um espelho na parede, logo ali Bem, tenho certeza que ele é alguém diferente agora Mas ele era o Batman quando morava aqui Talvez ele seja Yankee Zulu Só esperando a enchente Talvez Mac, o Conquistador Com a cabeça decepada por amor Eu o vi usando óculos aviadors e um boné de beisebol preto Por aeroportos atravessando o Bardo tranquilo como um gato selvagem A roda está girando Da noite para o dia Tudo está em transição Tudo deve mudar Mas nenhum de nós aqui Jamais verá a terra prometida Nenhum de nós aqui estará lá para Fim da infância Eu vejo você Vocês, estudantes em dividas Na torre de vigia acima Procurando por faróis na garagem Chorando "Pai, olha o que eles fizeram" Apenas olhe Até o romance nos fez mestres e escravos E agora as coisas continuam piorando enquanto permanecem tão estranhamente iguais Venha construir seu cemitério Por nossos cemitérios Mas você não vai matar a morte dessa forma Eu não sei sobre você Mas eu vou levar as canções de amor E dar-lhe o futuro em troca Eu não sei sobre você Mas eu vou levar as canções de amor Se este século está aqui para ficar Eu não sei sobre você Mas eu vou levar as canções de amor E a grande distância pelas quais elas vieram
