Lyrics
FLAMENCO (sanden)
flamenco just like the rest of us
the crack in the cup
lets the dim light thru
sadness spreads like an oil slick
but colors unfurl even in the shadows
you and i were good in our time
flamenco dance yer way thru the hurt
clap yer hands gnash yer teeth
flamenco when it is all you know
i don’t want another
the pain
the pain
the pain
the pain
the pain
the pain
it will fade
with time it will go
just give it time
flamenco

Demitasse (pronounced “DEHmee-toss”) is a two piece acoustic group. It is the side project for Erik Sanden and Joe Reyes of the Texas art rock band Buttercup. Mixing melody, spoken word, and noise, the sound is somewhere between Simon and Garfunkel, Leonard Cohen, and the Beach Boys on a dark day. Or Elliott Smith on an extremely bright, sunny day. Or John Cale tossing his car keys to Neil Young.
