lyrics

The big ticket Rock Stars
They come and they go
With folk fusion gimmicks
Comedy, electronics
Our story’s been the same
Since nineteen ninety-six
Selling Sushi in an Idli Shop for you
With Rock and Blues and Jazz and rolls on the menu

Selling Sushi is the Scene
Hope you know what I mean
Selling Sushi is the Scene
That’s how we wrap up this dream

I see you’re a producer of passion
I see you’re the chairman of cool
But if you’re the director of my music
I’d rather have the president’s rule
I’d like to be just like Lennon
You know, sometimes I play the fool
You can turn an event into history
Your sponsors on auto-renew
The drones they’re dripping kingfisher
As you fuck with the bands at your venue

Selling Sushi is the Scene
Hope you know what I mean
Selling Sushi is the Scene
That’s how we wrap up this dream, this dream

It’s getting cold here in this spotlight
While you rattle your cutlery
Don’t let me play a hole in your conversation
All I know is that this joke’s on me
Don’t need you to understand any more
And you can have all my tunes for free
Now you’re thinking this song is so bittersweet
You wear that smile so well
Shake my hand when I’m done, tell me it’s been a treat
I promise not to kiss and tell

Selling Sushi is the Scene
Hope you know what I mean
Selling Sushi is the Scene
That’s how we wrapped up this dream, this dream

Selling Sushi…
Would you like some chutney with that?

Founded in 1996, TAAQ is an eclectic, irreverent (but usually relevant) band that considers itself and its music as bastard children of the world. At home everywhere, belonging nowhere. Always true, tight, intense and ready to laugh.
