Wheels down in Seattle
Three years ago in this town
They sent their best and brightest to me
I sent them all back down
Deluxe coach to the ballpark
There's champagne on the snack trays
Summon up the spirit of a brighter time
Looked bad last week against the Blue Jays
When my name was everywhere
None of you were there
When my name was everywhere
Potholes in the parking lot
You feel the jolts a little harder every year
The bat boy hands out yellow stickers
It never stops raining out here
When my name was everywhere
None of you were there
When my name was everywhere
When the speedball would squeal
With the highlight reel
When the headline hype
Was on the front page in extra large type
It was me, for all the world to see
Don’t call it a comeback
I've been here for years
Maximum respect to all the warriors
Who choose to fall down on their spears
When my name was everywhere
None of you were there
When my name was everywhere
The Mountain Goats are an American folk rock band formed in 1991 in Claremont, California, by singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist John Darnielle. The band's name comes from a Screamin' Jay Hawkins song titled "Big Yellow Coat". For much of its history, Darnielle has been the only stable member of The Mountain Goats, collaborating with a diverse group of musicians in the studio and on tour. These include bassist Peter Hughes, drummer Jon Wurster, singer-songwriter Franklin Bruno, bassist and vocalist Rachel Ware, singer-songwriter John Vanderslice, guitarist Kaki King, and Annie Clark (St. Vincent). The music of The Mountain Goats is characterized by introspective and poetic lyrics, often focusing on themes of love, loss, isolation, and spirituality. The melodies are simple but effective, with a strong emphasis on Darnielle's vocals, which possess a unique and recognizable timbre. Some of the band's most representative songs include "This Year", "No Children", "The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton" and "Up the Wolves".
