LYRICS:
Heaven, have mercy on the hypnic jerk
You blamed for your speech
Walk around the block again
Wait 'til I feel cool and straight
With the diaristic bent on undertaking
Careful, steady
Are we steady?
Cool and ready
I'm not bossy, I'm the boss
Shooter, not the shot
On the tip and fit to execute
I'm chief, not the overthrown
Captain, not a crony
So if you wanna row, you better have an awfully big boat
Boat, boat, boat
Holding a package from a total stranger
Who claims to know me
No, you never knew me, man
Not even a fraction
You just glimpsed your own reflection in a gold sheen
I'm not bossy, I'm the boss
Shooter, not the shot
Well-composed with keys to raise the skate
I'm chief, not the overthrown
Captain, not a crony
So if you wanna throw, you better have an awfully big stone
Stone, stone, stone
Stone, stone, stone
We could hang out for the summer while you wait for your girl
Dip a toe until it's sunk and freezing
But just because I let you kill time dangling me from the quarry
Doesn't mean that I won't land on my feet
That's 'cause I'm the boss
Caller of the shots
Sutanejo, never spit to me
Chief, play my own right hand
Not haggish, but the hag
How naive to trample
She who's running from the stampede
I'm raising the skate
Look, I'm raising the skate
I'm raising the skate
I'm raising the skate
Look, I'm raising the skate
I'm raising the skate
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

After hearing this band on Life Is Strange it has now become one of my favorite bands, really loving it.🖤
At my bands first gig we played this song first in our set, and since then it has now become our thing to play a speedy Ortiz song to open our set every time we play. Hands down my favorite tradition
the tone on this guitar and bass duo is something else
Flipping loving this! Why hello there Speedy Oritz, lovely to meet you! Please come in, make yourself comfortable in my ear holes!
The black guy always dies first.

This song is amazing deserves way more views hope to hear you playing on the radio
You gotta love the rough different sound of them. It sounds so unique and sort of garage-bandy and I love it.
Saw them open for Interpol last night, amazing.
the most underrated song of decade
watch the brand new music video for Speedy Ortiz's "raising the skate" over at WIRED. "foil deer" is out now. smarturl.it/foildeer_itunes

+Josh McCoy I have no idea. Should be a fun show. Its a pretty good line up. The lead singer from two inch astronaut is crazy talented. I kinda wish the band "Bully" was included in this line up. They all have kinda the same vibes. All of these bands have some kinda weird non commercial appeal, inspired by underground grunge and catchy chord melodies. They all want to express some kind of 90's feel but get stuck in that era. Its way too cool and weird. Just plan nostalgic! Should be fun. Are you going?

+Tania Gonzales Definitely have a 90s grunge/indie feel... Veruca Salt, Liz Phair... I have tickets to the show, but if they're just opening at Black Cat we might head to 9:30 club after for La Sera for the late show. Rare to get a couple great bands so close on the same night. I like Hop Along, but I'd Uber a few blocks for La Sera. My hunch though is that next month Speedy will be the headliner for the tour and that will be the deciding factor.

Oh cool, right on! I havent bought tickets yet. Hopefully they dont sell out. lol! I never heard of La Sera. To be honest, not much of a fan of speedy, as its way to spacey, half as talented and not stable enough for me to sit or stand to listen to for an hour or maybe 30 minutes. The only song from Hop Along, that i like the most is " The knock" I totally made new lyrics to that song. So awesome! How much are you a fan of speedy?! the lead singer has a nice rack. lol!

This video is an homage to all these horror tropes. Suspiria. Shirley Jackson. Hausu too maybe?
Sadie lookin dreamie in this vid. Everyone else too of course
miked4309 might be the only guy that likes this band quite as much as I do. That guy is everyhwere!
Her lyric and vocal style (and their song style in general) remind me a lot of Neil Gust's stuff in Heatmiser. I'd always preferred Elliott Smith's Heatmiser songs to Neil's, but I think maybe something about the female vocals fill in whatever Neil's stuff was lacking, for me personally, because this shit is dope!

The way to creative artistic freedom for young people is not being poor. Too bad you're fighting against the only man who worked to bring economic prosperity for everyone including the youth, the poor, and minorities.
the song is fire, but "you're a germ" by wolf alice's video is better lol
Yuck, crap, lousy needs a mental ward not perform, esp in front of minors.
ummm lame?
