lyrics
Summer Lawns
Checkered skin of the great python
Girls take their shirts off
Waiting waiting for the day they get lost
I'm not somebody's dreamer
I just wanna know you
I'm not the end of the river
I just wanna run through
And I gotta believe
In concrete and your rosy cheeks
Restless sun
Loose change in the streetlight dawn
Kids gonna run home
Like scroll bars on a telethon
I'm not somebody's armour
I just wanna ask you
I'm not the end of your fever
I just wanna warm my hands by the edge of your moon
And I gotta believe
In concrete and your rosy cheeks
Roll my eyes to the back of my mind
Let the beating stop
Nylon timeline I don't wanna lose mine
Asleep in your arms
Saw your face in the broken window
Almost made me cry
Sing me a lullaby
Soft in the lemon sky
And the sun-kissed smog
And I gotta believe
In concrete and your rosy cheeks
Checkered skin of the great python
Girls take their shirts off
Waiting waiting for the day they get lost
I'm not somebody's dreamer
I just wanna know you
I'm not the end of the river
I just wanna run through
And I gotta believe
In concrete and your rosy cheeks
Restless sun
Loose change in the streetlight dawn
Kids gonna run home
Like scroll bars on a telethon
I'm not somebody's armour
I just wanna ask you
I'm not the end of your fever
I just wanna warm my hands by the edge of your moon
And I gotta believe
In concrete and your rosy cheeks
Roll my eyes to the back of my mind
Let the beating stop
Nylon timeline I don't wanna lose mine
Asleep in your arms
Saw your face in the broken window
Almost made me cry
Sing me a lullaby
Soft in the lemon sky
And the sun-kissed smog
And I gotta believe
In concrete and your rosy cheeks

about
Petty Victories Toronto, Ontario
Petty Victories is a fusion of opposites. Front women Colleen Dauncey and Zoe Sky Jordan have rooted their sound in driving,
melody synth lines and smoldering yet sweet harmonies. Though their voices are like night and day, together they are often mistaken for one, earning them a reputation for pleasantly surprising their audiences.
Petty Victories second album is set for release early 2013.
