Title & Registration

“Title & Registration,” written by Ben Gibbard and Chris Walla and recorded by them with their band Death Cab for Cutie in 2004.

“The glove compartment is inaccurately named
And everybody knows it
So I’m proposing a swift orderly change

‘Cause behind its door there’s nothing to keep my fingers warm
And all I find are souvenirs from better times
Before the gleam of your taillights fading east
To find yourself a better life”

King of America

“King of America” by the I Don’t Cares (Paul Westerberg and Juliana Hatfield), from the album Wild Stab.

I’ve cleaned your floors
Scrubbed your toilets
Man, I’ve swept under your feet
Worked in your stores
Every boy gets one chance
You’re laughing at me
Now it’s my turn to bleed
Shout it out
King of America
I wanna be king of America
