one trick ponies
loved you all a long, long while
looked down into a deep, dark well
called all your names
they echoed down for miles and miles
and all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind
loved them all through many a lifetime
some are gone but some still strong
some are weird as hell but we love 'em
some are one trick ponies but we embrace 'em
cuz i've always had a soft spot for repetition
loved you all a long, long while
looked down into a deep, dark well
called all your names
they echoed down for miles and miles
and all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind
loved you all a long, long time
looked long into the length of a tunnel
called all your names
and we was tripping out cuz we needed a way out
and all them other crystalline mystic rationalizations
loved them all right down to my soul
looked well into the depth of a hole
pondered perpetual motion in the echo
just like the song if the repeats were long
loved you all a long, long while
looked down into a deep, dark well
called all your names
they echoed down for miles and miles
and all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind
loved you all a long, long while
and i'd give my left--nevermind--for one big synchronized smile
some are one trick ponies but so am i
round 'em up into a mixed bag bundle of love now
loved them all a long, long tick
and it's four, five, six
prevent your schtick
throw them at the wall in a mixed bag and see if they stick
then give 'em a glass of water
give 'em a cherry pie
loved you all a long, long while
looked down into a deep, dark well
called all your names
they echoed down for miles and miles
and all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind

I appreciate this to the utmost degree.

I love Kurt Vile! He’s the most chilled guy on earth! His music should be played everywhere ☺️
-
"some are weird as hell but we love 'em" - Kurt talking about himself
-
This song just has a way of making people extremely happy. Like a content kind of happiness.
-
Love the little 'whou!' that he shouts randomly before the verse
-
I’ve always had a soft spot for repetition. Such a great line
-
I want this played at my funeral
-
I remember when I'd always hear this on the radio after a long hard nightshift, and it felt like a hug. I really needed a hug all those nights.
-
Praise the Lord. Kurt this is just… I don't know what to say ❤❤❤
-
Kurt was sent from above to make us all happy
-
How does he take the most naively composed music and make it so beautiful and fascinating? This guy is a genius.
-
Having such a hard time right now and hearing this and Kurt Vile for the first time ever tonight, just randomly on YouTube. Like this song a lot. And the last couple. 3 songs in. Would see his name and things but never actually heard him. This feels good
-
One of those guys who nails a riff every time but makes it sound like he’s not trying, great words too nods
-
Kurt is the gold standard. He is the conduit and the torch bearer for music made the way it's supposed to be made. What a gift and what a burden.
-
Kurt is such a one trick pony!!! He only knows how to write one kind of song..AWESOME!!!
-
Well, I couldn't tell what it is. But when I hear this song I feel like I am 16 years old again. And all the wonders of the world are still waiting for me. Fresh and sweet. This is unbelievable.
-
I keep coming back to this song and video month after month over the years. I'm really grateful for this, and to know that there are people who think and feel this way, and who make art that is so generous and uplifting. Jeez.
-
I dont know why this music moves me so much. But it does. So thank you Kurt!
-
This dude is actually the greatest artist of this century.
