Tell your mother that She sits too straight.

She's got a funny feeling.

That I'm up her alleyway.

And, tell your father that He don't work straight.

He's got a party feeling we all live in Pompeii.

And, Tell that girl you talk to weekly, You’ve got a funny feeling that I'm here to stay.

You say he’s always, he’s always got a funny feeling Even if I had one hundred thousand ways to make a million dollars.

He still wouldn’t have been it.

No, he wouldn't have been He wouldn't have been, he wouldnt have been it.

He wouldnt have been he wouldn’t have been it.

He wouldn’t have been he wouldn’t have been it.

Wouldn’t have been He wouldn’t have been And if it never happen well, then nothing would have happened and I’d Still be a ‘has-been’.

So, tell that girl you talk to weekly.

You got a funny feeling that I'm here to stay.

You say “He’s always, well, he’s always got a funny feeling All he’s going to find one hundred thousand ways to make a million dollars, he still wouldn’t have been it.

I'm Tanner Koetter, And along with Tony Kuefler and Parker Warfield, we are the Lonely Loons formerly known as the Flock Shot Coots Hailing From the Badger Tree Farm.

We use to perform as a two piece.

Acoustic.

We were called The Virgin Dads.

That was short lived.

And then after that, it was really when we met those two missing loons that kind of bridged the music of just us.

Pretty much just learning how to play instruments, into writing songs that could be for a full band one day.

And then, like I said, they flew away and we found some other loons on the lake.

Well, you went to a street dance back in, I think it's Four on the Floor.

That band.

Saw them.

That was kind of the inspiration to go a little more rock.

So then you got an electric guitar, and then he learned piano.

So he's other songs.

He's learned all these other instruments and obviously does vocals.

Yeah.

Grew from there.

And yeah, just wanted to play live in our mid twenties.

Thought it would be a fun thing to do rather than open mics at a small cafe in Duluth or something.

Oh, what a sunset, and they'll tell ya: “Your skin looks so much better in good weather.” Like they think they know you ya.

In your pull em’, with your poems Well, it's such a sight for sore eyes than mine.

And yes, I mind.

Oh, you got to get on your way.

You got more.

You gotta say.

don't ya?

Forget the boy that wanted the world for a California bound Miss Minnesota, Stuck in Oklahoma.

California bound Miss Minnesota stuck in Oklahoma on a “Call-for-a-good-time” billboard sign.

How bout that sunrise?

No more sunset now that you're facing west all the time.

Oh, where does that time go?

Your poor mama, What did she tell you?

Nothing's ever free except for the weather.

And you could do so much better.

Oh, well, you got to get on your way.

You got more you got say don’t ya?

Forget the boy that wanted the world for a California bound Miss Minnesota Stuck in Oaklahoma.

California bound Miss Minnesota stuck in Oklahoma on a “call-for-a-good-time” billboard sign.

Did you cross your t's, bat your eyes?

You gave up once.

Can you give up twice?

Can you recognize what you can't recognize yourself?

Did you cross your T's, bat your eyes?

You gave up once.

Can you give up twice.

Can you recognize when you can’t recognize yourself?

Did you cross your T's?

Ah, did you bat your eyes?

Did you cross your T’s?

Ah, did you bat your eyes?

The Lonely Loons Club.

The Lonely Loons Club.

Did Mr.Winterlonelyland get his margarita on mars?

If he can't afford to pay, then cash his check to the stars.

The lonely loons club.

The lonely loons.

It's always twenty after four at the loons club, but we’ve had our feet to the fire this entire cuffing season.

It's been a chalice of Aurora Borealis, with a hint of last summer's lime.

You're welcome to sweat on the hot rocks.

I'll put some monkeys on the boombox, and hobox this boondocks sauna.

We’ll slow it all down in here.

Careful not to disappear.

The lonely loons club.

The lonely loons club.

Space and time to sip wine at the Lonely Loons Club is karaoke tonight at the Lonely Loons Club.

Hey kid, we've all got problems.

We’d love it If you share.

You'll come to find we really care that life left you with just ice at the bottom of a glassy eyed stare.

It's life in a microcosm of the north country faire here at the Lonely Loons Club.

Lat dot dot dotty da.

Loons Club.

Here at the Lonely I cannot describe the style of music we play.

I have been trying to figure that out for a decade.

We've got Lounge Rock.

We've got Desert Rock.

We've got, Medieval Lidian, And as Tony likes to say, Rock.

Some songs are just a series of bridges that, you know, come together.

But, Strokes.

Arctic Monkeys, early Kings of Leon are influences.

And then from there, it kind of spreads.

But, early 2k Rock was our initial sort of sound, I guess.

Step right up.

Don't be shy.

There's a first time for everything.

You think You’ve got guts?

Rig-running through the gauntlet of rust?

And your home town is a desert a dust?

Yeah.

We'll be getting to screwing off.

Yeah kid.

We’d love to see what you got.

Yeah.

You shine it sometimes, shoot it sometimes You shine it sometimes, shoot it sometimes There’s no need to be.

Sex at daybreak, never know when it’s going to come around again.

Oh, S’il vous plait?

Des yeux qui font biaser les miens.

Okay baby, we’ll no see no say.

Well I said no see no say Babe!

You really outta see “Un Flic”, It’s a classic.

I'll be Alain Delon and you'll be in my arms.

We’ll have sex at daybreak.

On and off the hot wire again.

Oh, S’il vous plait?

Classic you.

Oh c’est la vie, oh c’est la vie.

I think I’m on fire.

Oh c’est la vie, oh c’est la vie.

I think I’m on fire.

Performing live to me is, like, like, looking out at a car crash and then looking over and seeing Matt, Tony or Parker.

And it's like looking in the mirror and telling yourself everything's going to be all right.

Which is why when we play Sentimental, I say that every time to remind myself.

Don't go loving me darling.

If you say it'll never work out.

Under a tree down in the garden, Do ya got time for one last shouting match so I can light up a smoke ache.

I’m taking a heart break.

Running the gauntlet again, babe.

It’s a bit of a freight train.

Don’t go loving me, darling, If you say it'll never work out.

No need to get so sentimental, no need to figure this out.

I say there's plenty of change at the bottom of that wishing well.

But who’s got that kind of time?

Come on, there’s plenty of change on the tip of your tongue, to shift this paradigm.

I hate to see you bringing yourself down, baby.

I hate to see you bringing yourself down, baby.

I hate to see ya, I always hate to see ya... Don’t go loving me darling, if you're always weighing me in your mind.

This sundown town is howling, And I'm dancing with the wolves this time.

And we’re all in the garden.

And I’ve got your guard down.

It’s really looking like one more last time.

I hate to see you bringing yourself down, baby.

I hate to see you bringing yourself down, baby.

I hate to see ya... I always hate to see you.

And you know it.

Now, when I say alright.

Everything's going to be alright.

Alright!
