Liz Phair’s unreleased, never-before-heard, self-produced cassette demos from 1991, the ones that landed her a deal with Matador Records, have finally been released!
Check out GirlySound.com to hear all the tracks.
(Girly Sound was her original moniker way back in the day, before she sang under her name.)
This truly was an unexpected surprise. Fuck, I can’t even think of the last time I thought about Liz Phair! Listening to these tracks now, I’m reminded of why she was such a rock goddess back in the ’90s. (Lo-fi!!!!)
It’s been over 10 years since I bought Exile in Guyville, and “Fuck and Run” is still a favorite song of mine, although I don’t quite relate to it lyrically as I once did. Although, it goes without saying that “Flower” is an all around classic, especially when you take into consideration the salacious lyrics:
Chorus:
Everytime I see your face
I get all wet between my legs.
Everytime you pass me by
I heave a sigh of pain.Main Lyrics:
Everytime I see your face
I think of things unpure, unchaste.
I want to fuck you like a dog,
I’ll take you home and make you like it.
Everything you ever wanted,
Everything you ever thought of, is
Everything I’ll do to you,
I’ll fuck you and your minions, too.
Your face reminds me of a flower
Kind of like you’re underwater:
Hair’s too long and in your eyes
Your lips a perfect suck me size.
You act like you’re fourteen years old.
Everything you say is so
Obnoxious, funny, true and mean.
I want to be your blowjob queen.
You’re probably shy and introspective;
That’s not part of my objective.
I just want your fresh, young jimmy
Jamming, slamming, ramming in me.
Everytime I see your face
I think of things unpure, unchaste.
I want to fuck you like a dog,
I’ll take you home and make you like it.
Everything you ever wanted,
Everything you ever thought of, is
Everything I’ll do to you,
I’ll fuck you till your dick is blue.Final Chorus:
Everytime.
I’ll quit rambling now. Check out the site for tracks!
