FEATURED New song CAMERAS officially released TODAY

I wanna sleep through the weekend
I wanna try
I wanna walk on my own floor
Before I die

And now, now the band tunes up
And now remember your lines
And all morning I woke up
And all day long no time

I wanna bring back the bison
I wanna try
I wanna close up the cabinets
Before I die

And now, now the band tunes up
And now remember your lines
All morning I woke up
And all day long no time

And it all
Comes down to hope
Came down on me
I’m begging you now
I’m begging you please
Comes down to hope
Came down on me

Someday spare change
Won’t feel the same
Stand up real tall
And wait to be called

Thoughts so strong
I feel them when you’re gone
Thoughts so strong
I feel them when you’re gone

And these old walks in the park
And meetings after dark
A sore sight
For sore eyes
Run wild and free
You got no place to be

Comes down to hope
Came down on me

Show me the side streets in your life
Train yards like bone yards, sharpened knives
Sidewalks are unassuming fields
Concrete and cracks won’t cut you deals
Won’t cut you deals
Won’t cut you

Lost teeth like white jewels of some kind
Petty theft for penny crimes
For penny crimes
For penny crimes
And we yell

ahh ahhh ahh ahh like a good ol’ fashion nightmare
ahh ahh ahh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahh

Riding trains to end of lines
Still we’ve got nothing but time
The skyline looks brighter tonight
Let’s go smash out every light
Your left foot in front of right
In front of right
In front of right
And we yell

ahh ahhh ahh ahh like a good ol’ fashion nightmare
ahh ahh ahh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahh

Let’s cut down the day
In this green rusty van
Like a red Cadillac
Top down, shoulders tan
I bought my first watch
But it feels all wrong
So let’s wait out the day
Bring the heat along

And when the timing’s right
Hold up wait
Wait wait
Wait wait
Wait wait
Wait
We’ll pull to the side
Arms up, count it down
Just like
5, 4, 3, 2, 1
The checkered flag means we’ve just begun

Let’s cut it down
Let’s cut it down

And we cut down
The day in my old van
Count down
From 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

We cut the legs off of our pants
Threw our shoes into the ocean
Sit back and wave through the daylight
Sit back and wave through the daylight

Slip and slide on subway grates
These shoes are poor man’s ice skates
Fall through like change in the daylight
Fall through like change in the daylight

I miss yellow lines in my roads
Some color on monochrome
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself

Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself

These sidewalks liquid then stone
Building walls and an old pay phone
It rings like all through the daylight
It rings like all through the daylight

And in the daylight we can hitchhike to Maine
I hope that someday I’ll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don’t pick up my phone
‘Cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

I have five clocks in my life
And only one has the time right
I’ll just unplug it for today
I’ll just unplug it for today

Open hydrant rolled down windows
This car might make a good old boat
And float down Grand Street in daylight
And float down Grand Street in daylight

And float down Grand Street in daylight
And float down Grand Street in daylight
And float down Grand Street in daylight
And float down Grand Street in daylight

And with just half of a sunburn
New yellow lines that I earned
Step back and here comes the night time
Step back and here comes the night time

And in the daylight we can hitchhike to Maine
I hope that someday I’ll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don’t pick up my phone
‘Cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

I have always said if Beyonce came up to me and said “Kim (yes, in this daydream Beyonce knows me) I want you to come be one of my back up dancers,” I would have to tell Matt I am leaving the band.  Well, we all know this isn’t going to happen, so to satisfy myself I dance at our shows.  I decided I had to step it up though and bring out not just a booty dance, but a booty dance on top of the crowd.

I have done it twice now.  The first time was in San Francisco.  See the video below.

This booty dance was a success.  The second time was in Santa Monica… I was up there but I feel like it wasn’t as dirty as it could have been. I also made the mistake of having a group of shorter people hold one foot and taller people hold the other foot. I know, this is a rookie mistake.  See the video below.

I am going to keep trying so I hope you are ready to hold my feet and together we will create the “On Top of the Crowd Booty Dance!”

Big hugs,
Kim
p.s. Thanks to the people who put the videos up!  Keep ‘em coming.

Hey, so you ever hear of these things called websites? We’re a little out of the loop here in NY and Kim and I haven’t updated ours in FOREVER, but now there is a new MATT & KIM WEBSITE and MERCH STORE! Check it out now and come back soon after we get a chance to write some stupid junk on here. The video section is pretty good. It has a bunch of videos we found on the internet that have something to do with our music. If you want us to put any other kind of stuff on here let us know (mattandkimmusic@gmail.com). Someone suggested a forum which we’re getting right on.

Hope all is awesome and see you soon.
