lyrics

Well it’s hard to say what I wanna do,
with a head full of regret
I’ll order up another drink (make it two)
Then light his cigarette
But I won’t soon forget....

Keep on talking in circles, that’s fine by me
Your absurd and hateful words will come back ‘round again
You can’t outrun, you can’t outrun those horrid things you’ve done
My .22 is set on you, and baby you’re going down

Go on and take a seat, If you’d be so kind
My red hot and vengeful thoughts have only grown with time
You can’t outrun, you can’t outrun, my eyes have taken aim
These seconds past will be the last That you see this face again

I’m just getting my kicks In with all this target practice
I’m just getting my kicks In with all this target practice
I’m just getting my kicks In with all this target practice
I’m just getting my kicks In, Baby you’re going down

You have shot me down and left me good as dead
But behold as the prophecies told the dead will rise again
You can’t outrun, you can’t outrun, we’re going toe-to-toe
Can’t overthrow my blood oath to make you lose control

You were my detractor
And my Fame became a factor
I see now what you’re after
And I’ll meet it with smiles and laughter
You were my detractor
And my Fame became a factor
You See now what I’m after
And I’ll take it with smiles and laughter

Welcome, your sins on parade this is how they get made and I hope you’re afraid
Welcome, your sins on parade this is how they get made and I know you’re afraid
You’ll see what I’m after. I’ll take it with laughter.
And I know you’re a traitor

I’m just getting my kicks with all this target practice
I’m just getting my kicks with all this target practice
I’m just getting my kicks with all this target practice
I’m just getting my kicks, Baby you’re going down

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles

There Will Be No Intermission
by Amanda Palmer

supported by 5 fans who also own “Target Practice (feat. Sky White)”

So, here's my thing about this amazing thing. I've listened to every single thing of Amanda's that I could since 2008. So when I say I failed with this album, you'll understand how big that is. When this came out, I thought I'd get around to it later because I knew a bunch of the tracks on it already. I never got around to it. Now, I've heard it, and I'm broken. In the best way. I lost a dear friend this year, and I'm never going to get over it, but this album helps so much. Thank you, Amanda. Delenn

Exceptional punk music! I love sloppy punk, but this manages to be clean without without losing any energy at all (maybe even getting more of it in the process!). Can't recommend it enough and show them to everyone I know zacharypinkham
