hold on not my fairy tale you're trying to start

Artist- Kings of Leon
Song of the day- King of the Rodeo

I fell in love with Kings of Leon one hot summer day at Lollapalooza several years back when I was searching for a bathroom (which is about 65% of my life) and heard Caleb Followill's voice over a hill. And let me tell you I hold my bladder for very little, but there is something more to this obvious rock band, besides the dreaminess. And lately I've been playing this older tune of theirs on repeat. I don't know if I find it extra charming whilst in Texas or the riff is just too good. And the video makes me miss my southern childhood and square dancing, though I do not miss Followill's long locks and find air bull riding to be quite disturbing. And though I am quite the opposite of a lot of Texans, I am secretly sad I was never a cowgirl king of the rodeo.




He's so purity, a shaven and a mourning,
and standing on a Pigeon toe, in his dissarray

Straight in the picture pose,
he's coming around to meet you

And screaming like a battle cry, its more if i stay

Me and your cold, Driving in the snow,
let the good times roll, let the good times roll
Cowgirl king of the rodeo, let the good times roll,
let the good times roll

How dare you some to me like withnail for a favor,
hold on not my fairy tale you're trying to start

Take off your overcoat, you're staying for the weekend,
and swaying like a smokey grey, a drink in the park

Good time to roll on.
