Lyrics
Thirst trap gonna getchya
That’s not future friendly
Reach out for the carrot
Hit the sticks
Now I’m running in circles over my head
Tripping all over the words I said
But it’s a new moon now
Ouroboros
Ebb tide
And it’s much too much for me
Oh, Athena
Take it easy
Athena, take it easy
Full stop
Didn’t get it
Locked out, not a member
Get stuck on the outside
In your dreams
Now you’re running in circles trying to get in
Tripping all over what might have been
And it’s much too much too much too much too much
Too much for me
Oh, Athena
Take it easy
Athena, take it easy

Born Ruffians have arrived at the point where a lot of bands give in to the nostalgic lure of album-anniversary tours, start contemplating the casino/fairground circuit, or call it quits. But the beauty of Beauty’s Pride lies in its refusal to accept those predestined fates. It presents them as the rare veteran act that can still make you feel like you’re discovering your new favourite band.
