Does the world really need another Marcus Kellis song?
"Glitter and Twang" is a song from Tullycraft's 2002 release, Beat Surf Fun. A friend of mine sent the track to me and I instantly fell in love with it, and then when the day came that I finally got around to buying a domain name I went for glitterandtwang.org. One day, while perusing some Google statistics I noticed that the search for lyrics of my site's namesake was a major source of hits. So, I transcribed the lyrics as best I could and sent them to Tullycraft to see if I'd gotten them right, and Sean Tollefson of the group was kind enough to check them over and tell me where I'd gotten them wrong. So, for all however-many of you in search of lyrics to this great song, here it is.Glitter and Twang
She grew up just north of privilegedWhere pink and perfect were sold
A cheap guitar and a shooting star
In Pensacola we watched as she drew wings of gold
She'll take you east out of San Bernandino
Straight up to 129
A simple dare and a secret square
In the casino we laughed as nightfall lit up the sky
Well don't you see
Glitter and twang
She's out to
glitter and twang for your heart
Well don't you see
Glitter and twang
She's out to
glitter and twang for your heart
She sings the song that she wrote me
I've got it stuck in my head
Broadway and Main and a ticket to Spain
She quotes the queen and makes the trundle bed
She said she'd like to see Dale Dauntless
And the Double-D ranch
A steeple chase and a lipstick trace
Dressed up like honeybees and we're takin' a chance
Well don't you see
Glitter and twang
She's out to
glitter and twang for your heart
Well don't you see
Glitter and twang
She's out to
glitter and twang for your heart
There are ten plagues of Egypt
Nine planets that circle the sun, we've got
Eight great ways to get the girl you want
Seven virtues, minus the one there are
Six ways to lose your wallet
Five pillars of Islam
Four Pavement songs that are kinda long
Three laws of motion
And then there's two
Me and you
And there's just one way we can solve this
Try and agree on the fifteen decisive battles of the world
and fancy soap in the soapdish
