v.1
You saw Jesus hungry … gave him no bread
Thirsty and you gave him no drink, that’s what he said
A refugee whose suffering you chose not to assuage
You threw him in an icebox, and his children in a cage
Chorus:
I don’t know how to tell you you should care
Perhaps a psychic surgeon practicing somewhere
could somehow bring your conscience to a state of good repair
perform an empathy implant, put a kinder soul in there
I don’t know how to tell you you should care
v.2
Jesus was a stranger… you didn’t take him in
Didn’t like his zip code or the color of his skin
It’s clear how you decide on just who merits human rights
But it’s cute you love the bible and you call yourself pro-life
Bridge:
What avails your precious privilege in the falsehoods where you dwell
Those unlike you are people but if you’ve convinced yourself
That they’re not really human then I guess it’s good and well
You vote for concentration camps and other people’s hell

I have appreciated your music for over a decade. Even the misses are still base hits. Between collaring with Edan (looooooong time fav), Quelle, and Deca, I never know what to expect but I know it’ll always be a joy to listen to. Thank you for giving us as much music as you can. tavis206
Hey you there, do you love Jeffrey Lewis? Do you love Peter Stampfel? Are you intrigued by the notion of music that has spent so many years secretly soaking in laughter and joy that it is now downright psychedelic to look upon? Both Ways is the culmination of a decade's friendship and mutual inspiration, a behemoth of a double album, spectacular, unique. It is a signpost for drifting souls. Listen, laugh, wonder, delight, be made new. And play Orgone Accumulator fucking LOUD. Grain Sparrow

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic
