Modest Mouse - Leaflets Gabe

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Leaflets club and leaflets Gabe, I know
Life is better at the candy store
Why is life and why is wage? I know
It all gets colder at the North, North Pole

{Chorus}
Ba-ba-ba-pa-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-pa-ba-ba-da-ta-da-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-pa-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-pa-ba-ba-da-ta-da-da-da

{Verse 2}
Both be long and both are big, I know
Life is better as an animal
Leaflets love and leaflets Gabe, I know
Life is better as a candy store

{Chorus}
Ba-ba-ba-pa-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-pa-ba-ba-da-ta-da-da-da

edit bio

Modest Mouse is an American indie rock band formed in 1992 in Issaquah, Washington, by singer/lyricist/guitarist Isaac Brock, drummer Jeremiah Green and bassist Eric Judy. The band’s lineup has dramatically changed over the years, and the only original members still in the band to date are Brock and Green. For a lineup timeline, see here.

Modest Mouse released their debut album This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About in April 1996 and have released six studio albums to date. They gained mainstream recognition with their April 2004 effort Good News for People Who Love Bad News and it is their commercially best-selling album, being certified Platinum by the RIAA.

Modest Mouse’s name s derived from a passage from the Virginia Woolf story “The Mark on the Wall” which reads:

I wish I could hit upon a pleasant track of thought, a track indirectly reflecting credit upon myself, for those are the pleasantest thoughts, and very frequent even in the minds of modest, mouse-coloured people, who believe genuinely that they dislike to hear their own praises.
