sailor boyfriend - do you like sonic youth? lyrics

[verse 1]

do you like sonic youth?
i’ve been trying to get to them too
i saw lee r-n-ldo
at kino kimino
so i figured i’d ask you
where should i start?
‘cause i only know superstar
is there someone i gotta prove?
and so i wanted to ask you

[verse 2]

do you like sonic youth?
i got kim gordon’s memoir
haven’t read it yet
but it’s spent sunsets way back in the armoire
next to a copy of m train lying on my bedside
and my mike kelly moma ps1 exhibition guide
if i buy five of your zines, can i be a part of your scene
and do they like sonic youth?

[bridge]

hey, you in the guided by voices t-shirt, you know, every time i try to ask someone where i should start listening to that band, they give you, like, six alb-ms. and, you know what? i don’t have the time or energy to listen to, like, six. i mean, i got bills, i got thrills – i’m just tryna listen to music that my friends believe in so maybe i could understand them a little better, y’know? but it’s people like you and your gatekeeping crew, with your big record collections that are just bringing me down, man

[verse 3]

do you like sonic youth?
they’ve been hounding me all my life
they’ve influenced every band i like since
they blew up in marital strife
i’ve heard thurston’s a bad guy
and i know all punk’s not white
but i think context is vital
so i’ll be sure not to idolize

[outro]

see no evil
speak no evil
hear no evil
