Blow it off your back
hear that beat my golden lady?
It's never enough.
Pocket the beat in
out fade out pain syncopate
Creamy brass, next song
Like the time you found
a dime and the ice cream
left your tongue wanting
I'm backseat in an
El Dorado, and kissing
disco in my bed.
I. A slap bass tackles
a scuffle between rivals
football reference
II. Blast to last the night
right full is the way of funk
breath deep funky bro
Chocolate magic
I caught the fever with you
Be gentle, I'm young
Funky train starting
Yes, everything is disco
Feelin' good in here
It's one of those days
a bikini top bake off
Ham casserole done.
Sweaty sweaty sweat
The heat keeps fluctuating
Oh, polyester
The rhythm section
Grooves smooth enough to be oiled
Funky time capsule.
What good are words now?
let me become tangled in
your velvet g-string.
It's been a shit week
A honey dipped rendezvous
licked my insides smooth
When you wrote these songs
in 1979
I was three years old
Cheap Thrills is a record club based in Montpelier, Vermont. We get together every so often to listen to a vinyl record nobody in the group has ever listened to or even heard of before. While we are listening, we write reviews in Haiku form ( what you see here). Enjoy!

I wish I could ride
A colorful rainbow song
As close as it gets
A care bear just knit
Polyester sweater suit
Gargamel screams FUN!
Kittens <3 skeeball!
Arcade carpet bubblegum
A child's lost shoe
The last day of school!
Speeding bikes, candy + FUN
Is my summer jam
Casio jingle
Nice friends singing together
Am I charmed or not?
Love and time will blur
the difference between my
ice cream and sorbet

Better Than Ezra
Flip it over, then blank stare
Not my cup of tea
Over the ocean
I think this needs another
Electro remix
Nineteen Ninety-Four
Summer College radio
Shocking B - side switch
1998
Song is on the radio
I'm feeling car sick
Here goes caution, man
Up her skirt too slow in my
hazy high school car
I could not stay here
Goblin king came and got me
Drop the crystal ball

Oblivians - Desperation
Artist: Oblivians
Album: Desperation
Label: In the Red Records
6/11/13
Gonna tear this place down
Rip shit glorious
Glare lights on the drunks
Drums clean under guitar haze
Beats hard as picked bones
Long day working hard
Clean off the grease and plug in
Time to rock the bar
Your friends show up late
Its not for them anyways
Its your time now
Bareback hauling kegs
Body's packed atomically
Pools of bottle sweat
Teeth clamp, hips wiggle
Somebody call the police
Rock and roll sexy
In a grunge bar
Tight shirts and double whiskeys
Sweaty, drunk, gritty
Dirt on leather skin
Denim fringe curtains open
The sun kissed salt lick
You leave the front porch
No shower, Memphis summer
Bloodhound for cold beer
Move like a panther
To the back of the barroom
For everyone's girl
Then, a tambourine
Sacrificed a casio
To feed rock and roll
In all garages
An amp has collected dust
The battle begins
Winter's been long, but
The summer car is ready
Let's kiss and let go
Loudness button on!
We're doing youth a favor
By turning it up!
Send me your hustle
Surf my body crying game
Growl your divine
Golden bedroom light
Buried deep in dirty clothes
The phone is ringing
At the laundromat
The devil was in her eyes
And set it aflame
Obvi obvi oh
Shake your ass to the bathtub
The first thing came out
Greaser says fuck it
Guitar blast beehives all night
Sing if I want to
Skip from '55
to '77 to
Now let's do it
Trash can trampoline
Escaping and on the run
Fire on your heels
Inject my body
With caffeine amphetamine
There is no way down
