lyrics

From the back woods of Manhattan
Came a good girl with a big plan
she made a bold play at the race track
put the cold cash in her back pack
no time for young boys and their skate boards
who fall like popcorn to the dance floor
And like a broken calculator
They try and try but never get her number

Went to her grandma's on the west side 
Who ran a seance since her man died
She puts the Bauhaus on the boom box
lifts an eyebrow when the door knocks
Enter a hip priest from the east side
with ayahuasca on his beat mind,  said
"I learned 2 things from my boy Buddha:
Life is pain but that don't really matter" 

Our girl went down town to the tar pits
Where the hedge funds keep their mystics
She said it's been real in the abstract 
But I'mma break out of this contract
and speaking backwards like a priestess
she left the court-yard after recess, Now
I got a hot date with the future
She packed, and left, with a thin ice figure skater

when the days flash like a strobe light 
get we get past what we thinks right
can we put down what we’re holding
can we be still for the moment?

hell yeah hallelujah (4x)

we’re all calm cool and complicated maybe 
even night school graduated
and whether stan-ding, tall or seated
sometimes our best plans get defeated
next time your big stage machinations
give you ribcage palpitations 
embrace that healthy attitude-a
can you say oh, oh hell, hell yeah and hallelujah

hell yeah hallelujah (8x)

Kotorino Brooklyn, New York

WNYC says:
…Kotorino has one of the most unique and unusual sounds of any band, ever. Even in a music scene saturated with “chamber-pop” bands and odd instrumentation, Kotorino stands out with its use of all variety of winds, strings, and other musical gadgetry. The music itself is omnivorous in its source material, quite pretty, and downright haunting ... more
