about

Combining neo-psyche and baroque pop influences, that will grab the attention of fans of artists such as The Zombies, Magnetic Fields, and The Shins that share a similar ability for sharp songwriting, memorable vocals, and pop hooks.

The song paints a picture of how most politicians start off with
good intentions and then it all quickly goes south.

Corner Suns is comprised of John Dufilho (The Apples in Stereo, The Deathray Davies) and Brandon Carr (The Earlies),

lyrics

i am in no mood to run
there's no one chasing me
still I feel like nothing will get done
unless i stand up and speak my mind
at the start it's all shaking hands for money
i am in no mood to be on television
and here i stand next to the nominee
I'll take him down with a few small lies
I've been known to find ways to get around the truth
I'll tell my version for now
and soon enough I'll be the one to say how this goes
believe me you'll have to pay
so much time getting here
now there's no way I'll leave this
I am in no mood to phone you back
it's not like it matters
someone from my team will be in touch
and thank you for calling friend
I've been known to find ways to get around a call or two
Mondays are just for golf
