Up and down through what you thought would be your future
Became the dark reminder of
What a rash and inconsistent faith you had
In loving your true self and your true love
Clowne towne no shelter
Clowne towne no anything
Clowne towne single angel
Clowne towne no exit
Your true father smashed his hands through the glass
And failed out of the priviledged life of his dream
Your true love has drunk herself into not being able to pay her rent
Or keeping her own word to her own self
Your true brother has betrayed you over and over
And looked you in the eye
Your true self has become weak and alone and annoying
And a true ridiculous dumb-ass
Clowne towne revealing nothing
Clowne towne a flock of coots
Clowne towne a single beauty
Clowne towne a big dumb kid
The lyrics CLOWNE TOWNE of XIU XIU is also present in the album Fabulous muscles (2004)
Xiu Xiu è un duo musicale statunitense formatosi a San Jose, California, nel 2002. Il progetto musicale vede la collaborazione di Jamie Stewart (voce, chitarra, tastiere) e Angela Seo (violino, violoncello, voce). Il nome del gruppo deriva dal film cinese *Xiu Xiu: The Sent Down Girl* (1998), diretto da Joan Chen. La musica di Xiu Xiu è caratterizzata da un approccio sperimentale al rock, che fonde elementi di noise, post-punk, ambient e elettronica.
