about

WEEK 7 of "Meet the Lampreys" wherein we finally meet the lampreys.

We suspect most of you are unfamiliar with lampreys. We were. And this song, well it may not be entirely accurate, even about the Star Wars monsters. We nevertheless hope it assists you as you come to know the lampreys in your own way.

lyrics

barracudas drill holes
but lampreys aren't like that
lampreys aren't like that
not a fish not an eel
but still kind of round (yeah)
a mouth full of teeth

everything you don't like but bigger and in tube form
everything you don't like but bigger and in tube form

got a mouth like a mynock
but won't attack spaceships
cause lampreys aren't like that
the exogorth and the sarlacc
have nothing on lampreys
except maybe size

everything you don't like but bigger and in tube form
everything you don't like but bigger and in tube form

about

The Invisible Cities image

The Invisible Cities San Francisco, California

We play loud and soft, guitar-y and loopy, dreamy and dancy, and tend to shift gears from song to song. Among other things, we are fans of The Breeders, Yo La Tengo, and the sprawl of the white album. And The Expanse.
