lyrics

Hot rod Joe was an asshole, lived next door back in the day,
Everything he did was a hassle, pissed me off in every way,
He drove a Monte Carlo 396 4-speed,
Revved it up in the carport, every time I wanted to sleep,

Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe
Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe

Worked up at the casino, dealing blackjack, pot, and speed,
Every night was a party, down burnouts in the street,
His friends were all just like him, fat and dumb and mean,
I’d come home from the night shift, they were just getting started again,

Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe
Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe

Hot rod Joe had a lady, I met her by the washing machine,
Said she liked the spin cycle, til she got a look at me,
I took her through the next load, and she did the same for me,
Didn't stick around to fold, but I met her again the next week.

about

The Lost Eyes San Francisco, California

The Lost Eyes are a San Francisco-based band that plays original songs in a jangly post-punk style, with psychedelic flourishes and occasional detours into surf, country and desert rock. We like songs about beauty and tragedy, futility and silliness. 3/4 of us avoid hugs, go figure.

We are: Mike Zorn-Vocals/Guitar, Jeanne Park-Bass, Jan Gyn-Lead Guitar and Peter Warren-Drums/Vocals.
