  • The Emperor's New Clothes Lathe-Cut 7" Single
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Lathe-cut (by hand!) VERY LIMITED edition 7" single. Why so $$? FWIW, we are not making a profit here. These are handmade and costly to do, but they look great and we wanted to make sure this small handful of leftovers was on offer in case you missed out first time around.

about

Another one from the final days of Betty Goo. Jeff brought in the song and the concept and we took it from there. Made a few changes for this version but it hews pretty close to the original intent. None of us is this crabby in our old age.

lyrics

Driving is a pleasure, some folks say
They must not do it everyday
My knuckles white from clutching at the wheel
Does no one care how I feel?

Patience is a total waste of time
I spend my whole life losing touch with mine

You’re so polite, you think before you speak
You’re not mellow, you’re just weak
Hanging out in doorways and in malls
I can’t stand it, I hate you all!

Patience is a total waste of time

about

Aaron Tap Los Angeles, California

Aaron Tap is terrible at branding. So he releases shit from both his current band Frank Shirts and, lately, the resurrected Boston trio Betty Goo, and maybe someday even a solo record. There are themes, yeah, but mostly it's whatever spirit moves the music that decides what name it goes by.

Aaron also plays and sings with Matt Nathanson, the Paula Kelley Orchestra, and Populuxe.
