Son they sure did whip me today My old man used to say We had the Lord to thank As he sank in the other room A sawtooth sawdust salesman And thus in the a.m. mirror I am Seeing only that I have to withstand Millennia of mistakes Here on the breath of an underground train That takes me to my screen And the family business We’ve been swindling for so many years Ever since we planted the first grain The notion of wanting To be more than sustained When you cut your teeth on Whatever you were handed The first time thinking, I don’t belong You didn’t know the half of it Sorta like the district In the evenings come midweek When the exodus is swelling all around me For escape after ten thousand years as poor actors Facing this backfiring engine I don’t want any part of Imagining the bodies That could finally match it When you cut your teeth on Whatever you were handed The first time thinking, I don’t belong You didn’t know the half of it You only knew you wanted to be true No wonder our bodies feel No wonder Our bodies feel out of tune

about

Brice Randall Bickford is known for recording and performing as The Strugglers from 2001 to 2009. During those years, Bickford released four LPs and toured Europe and the U.S. multiple times before leaving the band name behind. He released his first eponymous album, which was produced by Scott Solter, in 2011.

Bickford's songwriting has earned him wide recognition from influential musicians and critics alike. Pitchfork has described his writing as "tracing a single thought or sketching a single image throughout the course of several bars, building suspense and making you wait patiently for the pay-off".

His sixth album, Paro, was released by Austin-based Keeled Scales on February 24th, 2017.
