about

A hot rhythm but a cold tale of a mismatched couple, where the much more alluring half wishes her sweet-but-unexciting partner would do the hard part for her and break things off.

lyrics

You just had to tell me all about it
Make a long story short? I doubt it

When I'm lookin' for a thrill I have to dream it
Try again now, do it like you mean it

You obey too willingly. You come way too easily, when I call.
You shouldn't stay with me, at all, don't stay with me

A good idea is a good idea is a good idea is a good idea—turn here.
Let me off, let me out, this is my stop.
Stop the bus, I'm gonna exit through the gift shop.

You know, you fold like a sheet. I want to shake like a leaf, on a tree.
You come way too easily, for me, don't stay with me.

Do it like you mean it. Do it like you mean it.

A good idea is a good idea is a good idea

You shouldn't stay with me. You shouldn't stay with me, baby.
You shouldn't stay with me. You shouldn't stay with me, baby.
You're just as sweet as can be, but please, don't stay with me.

about

The Claudettes image

The Claudettes Chicago, Illinois

The Claudettes fuse Windy City piano blues with the full-throttle energy of rockabilly and punk, jazz-age echoes of burlesque and vaudeville and the sultriness of '60s pop-soul to write a thrilling new chapter in American roots music. Johnny Iguana (ex-Junior Wells/Otis Rush/oh my god) works the piano alongside singer Berit Ulseth, bassist/singer Zach Verdoorn and drummer Matt Torre. ... more
