  11. White Girl by Soul Coughing on Irresistable Bliss (Slash/Warner) Info

    "White girl. Market at Van Ness"

  12. Down To This by Soul Coughing on Ruby Vroom (Slash/Warner)

    "You get the ankles and I'll get the wrists" might refer to moving a dead body. Or it might be a riff on something one of them (probably Mike) said at a job which was "You get the phonecalls and I'll get the lists" It was the 90s. There were probably drugs involved.

  13. St. Louise Is Listening by Soul Coughing on El Oso (Slash/Warner)

    "nd your aphasia strikes a bargain with the barter yardie I got to box you for the money, said it might end... Reeling and stumbling, I've got to bump around a while" Sometimes the lyrics make sense. Sometimes its just how the words sound next to each other. There's a similar appeal to the songs of Dry Cleaning. I don't always know what's going on explicitly, but damn the words sound good next to each other.

  14. Unmarked Helicopters by Soul Coughing on The X Files: Songs In The Key Of X (Warner)

    I bought this otherwise mediocre soundtrack just to get the Soul Coughing song. That's what we did in the pre-streaming era.
