Well, I'm here on this song at 60+ years old. My 22 year old Vassar grad daughter asked me to learn Lucy's "Christine" for our annual Thanksgiving sing-along. I became obsessed. This is such a wonderful rabbit-hole. Honestly, the best song-writing I've heard in 20 years. Thank you Lucy.
***LYRICS*** Nonbeliever You threw your books into the river Told your mom that you're a nonbeliever She says she wasn't surprised but that doesn't make it ok You say nobody loves a city Nobody loves what can't love 'em back One-way ticket in your pocket What happened to the charm of a small town? If you find what you're looking for Be sure to send a postcard You promised you'd never forget The little ones when you got big You deal an unspoken debt No kindness without wanting something back What do I owe you? What did I forget? Or are we even after all of that? You shook my hand and said goodbye You'll never let me see you cry again What good has come from learning to pretend? You said I could've been a better friend If you find what you're looking for Be sure to send a new address And if you find what you're looking for Write a letter and tell us what it is, and tell us what it is Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out
It’s a sermon from a religious cult called The Way International. She talks about it in the interview from the same session, which you can listen to here: www.thecurrent.org/feature/2018/04/04/lucy-dacus-performs-in-the-current-studio

***LYRICS***
Nonbeliever
You threw your books into the river
Told your mom that you're a nonbeliever
She says she wasn't surprised but that doesn't make it ok
You say nobody loves a city
Nobody loves what can't love 'em back
One-way ticket in your pocket
What happened to the charm of a small town?
If you find what you're looking for
Be sure to send a postcard
You promised you'd never forget
The little ones when you got big
You deal an unspoken debt
No kindness without wanting something back
What do I owe you? What did I forget?
Or are we even after all of that?
You shook my hand and said goodbye
You'll never let me see you cry again
What good has come from learning to pretend?
You said I could've been a better friend
If you find what you're looking for
Be sure to send a new address
And if you find what you're looking for
Write a letter and tell us what it is, and tell us what it is
Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out
Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out
Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out
Everybody else, everybody else looks like they've figured it out
I love this talented woman
Everybody else, everybody else looks like they figured it out,
Everybody else, everybody else looks like they figured it out
Queen
In the beginning her voice is so similar to Angel Olsen

true
Does anyone know where I can find lyrics to that sample at the end? I really want to know those words
