WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT THE DOOR

Chaos finds her and she surfs it; permanently sandy, permanently optimistic

  • bright pop rock
  • jangly surf guitar
  • punchy live drums

lyrics

The compressor is going and the man says weeks not months
And thirty years of people are stuck to the front of it
Her mother, top left, and a dog and a man called Dave
And nobody in this family will say the obvious thing

What do we do about the door, the door, about the door
You cannot move a waiting room to a different fridge
What do we do about the door, the door, about the door
And she says it is fine and it has always made that noise

I offered to photograph it. All of it. Exactly as it is.
She said that is not the same thing and put the kettle on.

What do we do about the door, the door, about the door
You cannot move a waiting room to a different fridge
What do we do about the door, the door, about the door
And she says it is fine and it has always made that noise
