Your Situation

Liner Notes

Just wanted to pretend for a little while like I was a strung out rockstar with big hair, too much eyeliner and a cigarette hanging out of my mouth instead of a 50 year-old mom living in the suburbs wearing sweatpants. All sorts of slop in this performance and I like it that way:). P.s. distortion and delay on everything is, indeed, the answer. And oh, this is number FOURTEEN! Crap, now I have no more excuses for not doing "real" work.

Lyrics

VERSE 1
So what’s your situation?
Cuz I know a guy
who knows a guy
With a potion
That will ease your mind
And soothe your soul
It could be poison
But if you mix it right
And take it slow
It’ll fix you
Up real nice
With a steady afterglow

VERSE 2
So what’s your situation
Cuz they found a way
to make picture
Perfect
Thinner, younger, taller
Oh, it could be deadly
But if you use it right
and take it slow
It’ll fix you
Up real nice
With a steady afterglow

CHORUS
Scalpel, suction
Try this pill
Drink it down
Send us the bill
We’re looking for
The quickest quick fix
Stitch me up
and hope it sticks

VERSE 3
So what’s your situation
You think you’re fine
But let me tell you
What you’re missing
All your dreams come true
Oh, let me show you
How you do it
You just use this right
and take it slow
It’ll fix you
Up real nice
With a steady afterglow

CHORUS
Scalpel, suction
Try this pill
Drink it down
Send us the bill
We’re looking for
The quickest quick fix
Stitch me up
and hope it sticks

50 Beth? You're only a baby. Great rock chick track. love the way the guitar's snarl are set way back in the mix, brings to mind Siouxsie and the Banshees.

Really enjoyed the listen.

It's amazing, you nailed another genre! AI will never be able to keep up with Beth Kille.

Congrats to making it to 14. I'm almost there as I write this. It's good to take yourself down the occasional dark alley of the soul and come out the other end. Chorus is great here!

@dasbinky 3d

Huge thumbs up for the super-flanger-delay-dripped geetar 🎸

Love the groove, and the attitude all up in the lyrical delivery. The guitar plug delay at the end even counts as a guitar solo. RAWWWWWWKKKKKK.

To be clear, sweatpants are infinitely and unironically hotter than eyeliner and big hair. The 80s lied to us.

I love this song so much!!!! Distortion makes everything better! Congrats on #14…though I know we all want more! :)

@val 4d

Approved! You couldn't be a proper hairband without distortion in everything. You're a rockstar even if you don't have a cigarette loosely hanging off you bottom lip. Great attitude and groove.
