A quick and dirty love song to our spirit animal of the summer, White Gladis, the yacht-hating orca.
lyrics
white gladis
white gladis she's the leader of the pod
belov'd daughter of the ocean gods
white gladis she's showin' how it's done
white gladis sink a yacht for fun!
white gladis she’s a cool orca momma
workin' thru some childhood trauma
white gladis she's givin' all she's got
white gladis sink another yacht!
white gladis she’s the queen of the sea
class warfare v. the bourgeoisie
white gladis she's a real big "fish"*
white gladis sink the filthy rich!
go white gladis
go go go!
go white gladis
go go go go go!
2x
white gladis she’s the queen of the sea
class warfare v. the bourgeoisie
white gladis she's a real big "fish"**
white gladis sink the filthy rich!
go white gladis
go go go!
go white gladis
go go go go go!

* Yes, we know... Orcas are not fish, they are mammals. That's why we put quotation marks around the word "fish." But to be fair, have you ever tried to rhyme the word "mammal" with the word "rich"? Trust me (I'm a professor), it doesn't work. So, we're using our official State of Howdy Arabia Creative License here, and calling this glorious Orcinus orca a "fish," for the sake of the song. We'd like to think Townes Van Zandt would approve.
** See note *, above.

Nasty and yet sweet Italian garage rock. This one scratches a lot of itches for us: Dirty blues, VU sweetness, The Fall drones. One of our favorite records of 2019. The Prof.Fuzz 63
