lyrics
"Sister Claire"
It's all around the convent
I'm ballin' Sister Claire
I got into the habit
And she let down her hair
Cmon little sinner
You'll never be missed
Cmon little Godchild
Come out and be kissed
She's fine, she's fine, she's as fine as fine can be
She's mine, she's mine, she's as mine as mine can be
I felled an angel
Angel you be mine
I felled an angel
Angel you be mine

Musically, The Orphans were one of the most substantial of Perth's first wave of punk rock bands, and the darkest and most unsettling. A double album for the price of a single. The Geeks
Across their second full-length, the London post-punks offer up thrumming motoriks, industrial tones, and sullen sing-a-longs in abundance. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 17, 2024
Bodega joyfully celebrate the history of underground rock music with tunes exemplifying the best of college rock to jangle to indie. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 12, 2024
