Nancy From Now On
Father John Misty Lyrics

Oh, pour me another drink
And punch me in the face
You can call me Nancy
Every man wears a symbol
And I know I have mine
I've got my right hand stamped
In the concentration camp where my organs scream "slow down, man"

Ooh, flowers and bows
Milk and honey flow
Just a couple states below

Ooh

Oh, hook me up to the tank
And roll me to the door
I'm going where my body leads me
I can fend for myself
With what looks I have left
I'll put away a few
And pretty soon I'll be breaking things I have of you

Ooh, flowers and bows
Milk and honey flow
Just a couple states below

Ooh, give me how it was
A place under the sun
Before the devil made me run
Run boy, run boy

Ooh

I was listening to this from a small hi-fi in the bathroom at 3:00am in rural South India over a hole in the ground while having the most horrific diarrhea of my life. Many questions came to mind when I first heard this - mainly why God had cursed my gastrointestinal system to such a horrid degree. Also, I wondered how a DJ in the middle of nowhere in South India had come upon Father John Misty and bestowed their lovely sounds upon me.

This music video makes a lot of sense to me. She came into his life and changed who he was as a person, when she saw him new and improved with other people it drove her crazy and in the end they're pulled towards each other again.

Only when you got a gf you get plenty chances of others. When you aint its a joke. Regret i never cheated on ex and kept options open:)

Nah. She's insecure af and used this dominatrix bit to make herself feel worthy of him/every emotional power over him.
You see eat the end he's fantasizing about the blond from the bar when he's in bed with his wife (after having fetched coffee for her.)

PasswordVEVO

That's pry true, but I see it more about how ,even tho she dominates dudes, she still wants a good man, like any other woman.

When i see this video it reminds me of the lyrics of Chateau Lobby, 2:09 "First time, you let me stay the night despite your own rules
You took off early to go cheat your way through film school
You left a note in your perfect script: "Stay as long as you want"
I haven’t left your bed since"
