lyrics

Davy, you have a boy's name,
A heart-shaped, round face-
Two can play that game.
Davy, the dead of winter,
The check-out counter,
Ten days my elder,
But you're still a freshman...

Oh, Davy, the Christmas lights
Your lovely if angry eyes have beckoned me.
And though we disagree,
Davy would you come with me?

Davy, that day when Don rang,
The receipt said your name,
I asked him to arrange.
Effervescent Mary,
And Don and Margery
In mother's backseat, at the university...

Oh Davy, your wide-spaced eyes
Your wild ways, they hypnotize a man like me.
And we reached our college town
Where your eyes settled down.
And Bob had lit a fire.
And your stories made me smile.

Davy, those streets were icy,
The breaks and wheels screeched,
And most girls would scream,
But that kiss meant something...

Quick Said the Bird Columbus, Indiana

At one of our very first shows, a friend dubbed us "an atmospheric folk pop orchestra" and we liked that. We prefer stomping floors to kick drums, hand-shakers to high-hats, and Casio-keyboards-through-tape-players to electric guitars. We try and create little backyard micro-epics. We hope we don't buff out too many of the imperfections. ... more
