Clean

from Golpe by Danso Key

lyrics

I was born a couple of years ago
Smartly
Just in the place I wanted to be
Perfect
Beautiful
Coherent
At ease with myself
Politically fluent
No negative back feed
Clean

Who would have known
I had been twisting it around?
I hadn’t noticed
I had been twisting it around
...what do the pure do?...

I didn’t give in to unwanted attention
I didn’t give up on a friend who made mistakes
I didn’t play around with others feelings
I never ever spoke or thought in clichés

I didn’t let myself be the weaker dealer
I didn’t choose a path of mediocrity
I didn’t pretend to be a believer
I never ever betrayed my soul

Brought up in privilege
Shallowness is deep
Haunted by the most common heterosexism
Born in a basket
But bred like a queen
Distorted
By consumerism
And by patriarchy

about

Danso Key Rome, Italy

Danso Key is a queerforward power trio that combines unrelenting drums, an electric cello boosted on low frequencies, an intoxicated guitar and velvety vocals: the result is warm but abrasive.
In January 2019 their album “LAVA” is out on Unrecords: nine crisp songs telling the ordinary turmoils of the queer next door. The 90's are back and so is Danso Key.
