Tune Tuesday

Band of Skulls music is a primordial soup of angst kick butt power with a sense of humor thrown in. I did not know when I found this group that they were on the “New Moon” soundtrack… **Wait come back, I promise it’s a good band!!** I actually don’t like the song that’s on the soundtrack, not saying its bad but it’s not my glass of sweet tea. But buisness wise it was probably a smart move on their part.


They are a British group that formed in 2008. Russell and Emma both share vocals and I think it just adds to their wickedness.



My Personal favorite is “I know what I am” which just gives me this really kooky boost of confidence when I hear it. I get this extra pep in my step. And if you don’t believe me just listen to it!!



LYRICS
High ho, triple sow cow,
I got a feeling like I'm tired of the flow
But I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be

Gasoline, saccharine
I got no reason for the state I'm in,
But I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be

Hotel, Taco Bell,
I got the hit that you know damn well,
But I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be

Cut, tease,
Better believe,
I got the feeling that I'm underneath,
But "I know what I am"
They know what they are
So let me be

But it’s alright, its okay,
I got the time, but the time don’t pay
(repeat 3x)
It’s alright it’s okay.

Flip flop no stop,
I got the wit that my enemies lack,
But I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be

Trick some, just begun,
Giving you more when you only want one,
Cause I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be

Hot, sweat,
Got debt,
Keep looking in the locker cause you don’t know yet,
But I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be

Ship shape, ticker tape,
Looks to me like a narrow escape,
But I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be

But it’s alright, its okay,
I got the time, but the time don’t pay
(repeat 3x)
It’s alright it’s okay

I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be
I know what I am.
(repeat)
