Violent Femmes - Key Of 2 Lyrics
Well I was sentenced to prisonTo do about one yearThey said it isnt so badWe got a good band hereWe play every wednesday nightSometimes tuesday tooIts the music of the future and it will get to youWhen I heard the band for the first timeThey has no (rhythm). they had no (rhyme)Well it almost like a dreamI never wanted to haveIt drove me (crazy). it drove me (mad)The man said: cmon and playAnd heres an instrument for youIts an ancient fluteIts in the key of 2. blow...I gotta get more time. I gotta stay in hereI used to be foggyBut the music made me clearNow the jail in rockin like elvis never knewIm on the inside now. Im in the key of 2Now we all are lifers and Im in the band tooWe play my favorite song. its in the key of 2And it will get to youIts the music of the future and it will get to youAnd it will get to youIts the music of the future. its in the key of 2Gordon gano: vocal, guitarBrian ritchie: 12-string bass, piano, noseflute, vocalGuy hoffman: drums, vocalRecorded and mixed by david vartanian at dvs perversion room, milwuakee, wi gorno music reprinted with permission
