lyrics

You know all that shit you hear
about love and how it feels?
Could be that it’s real after all.
You just can’t know until you fall.
But it’s true what they say.
Oh it’s true what they say.
Turns out they were right and and I was wrong
all along.
Love is a hit from Shiva’s bong.
Love is exactly like you’re strappin on
some kind of electric thong.
Cause when she stepped in the room
my heart was back in bloom.
And it was singin to me:
Step right up boy to meet your doom.
Because it’s true what they say about love.
Oh yes it’s true what they say about love.
I guess it’s true what they say about love.
They say love will make you tame.
Losin every game.
Love will make you search the net for her name
and later hang your head in shame.
I’m saying love will make you pay.
Make you rue the very day you ever fell.
Love will make you wonder what to say
to make it go away.
Love will even make you wish that you were gay.
From what you’ve heard, you figure you could
get more tail that way.
But then she steps in the room
and your heart is back in bloom, singin:
Get along doggie got to get some boom boom boom.
Doggie got to get some boom boom.
Get along doggie got to get some boom boom boom.
Because its true what they say about love.
Oh yes it’s true what they say about love.
I guess it’s true what they say about love.
My eyes are red and my balls are blue.
So I guess that it’s true.
At least for the lucky few.
Am I gettin through to you?
Oh, it’s true what they say about love!
Thank you, goodnight.

about

Dropsy image

Dropsy Oakland, California

Dropsy has many musical tendrils, emanating from the vicinity of a funky lounge, sometimes snaking into dark caverns. The band sounds friendly enough, but displays its canines at unexpected moments. Cooper's droll lyrics brim with invective, taunts, boasts, disturbing delusions and bad advice. But he seems to be singing on our behalf, to a mutual enemy, in a bar on a tropical island. ... more
