Lyrical Chatter: Limbeck - Don't Turn Around, She's Not Worth It

The funny thing about music is it's like the internet. Whatever you make never goes away. This week's Lyrical Chatter column features the band Limbeck. Their one of those bands that never really gets the appreciation that they deserve. We will be listening to the previously un-released track, 'Don't Turn Around, She's Not Worth It'.

The title of the track is a story of itself, until you listen to the lyrics in dept. The track was originally released on the Doghouse 100 compilation, then re-recorded for their latest effort, The Delicacy of Living Modestly.

leaving now and it's so nice out i think that i could blind myself watching the sun go down play the radio loud i don't want to go but i gotta go now six hours to go until i show up back home i pull up to some kind payphone to hear the sweetest noise come out i played the radio loud i don't want to go but i gotta go now i heard the sweetest noise come out from the payphone i wanna turn around don't let time take the thrill while i'm away cause if you let it take the thrill this whole thing's a waste i played the radio loud i didn't want to go but to turn around i heard the sweetest noise come out from the payphone but it's such a joke now i didn't want to go home but i like my home now

Vocalist Robb McClean tells his story about going back and forth between a girl. He doesn't know if he should leave because he's obviously spent a significant amount of his life with her. He talks about how the partner shouldn't let time take the thrill because it will all go wrong. The thrill in this case is love and how she should just move on just like he did. At the end of the track, McClean states, "I didn't want to go home/but i like my home now" describing how he's content with how he's living now without her.
