Framed plant portrait

how many times
somebody shouted
"last call"
and i knew he means it
at least this night
stained white sweater
fluorescent light
one quarter short
"get me next time"
somebody shouted
"get outside"
and we fell in rank to
watch him bolt by
"where the fuck is he?"
"down the stairs"
"what did he look like?"
"dark and tall"
somebody shouted
"they had it coming!"
"freeze!"
bang!
Bang!
"shoot!"
protect you
is what they say, but
point and shoot
is what they do
protect you
is what they say, but
point and shoot
is what they do
when shots are heard
when lives are lost
nobody cares in the ghetto
for two dead cops

Parquet Courts is an American alternative rock band formed in New York City in 2008. Originally consisting of Andrew Savage (vocals, guitar), Austin Brown (guitar), Sean Yeaton (bass) and Max Lerner (drums), the group has undergone several lineup changes over the years. Their music is characterized by an energetic and experimental sound, influenced by post-punk, noise rock, and lo-fi.
