lyrics

Always wanted to be a good loser
On the days when my name was the last one down
On the days when the fence I was walking
Left me dripping with mud in a gray scale town
When the stronger choice
Made a joyful noise
With a starlet’s poise
With a body the boys like honey
With an inside voice
Uh oh, where do the funny ones go
Always wanted to be a good dancer
Like the virgins who twirled like a carousel
Taught to barter their kisses for comfort
I was sick on the day that we learned the hard sell
I was still untouched
But they’d tart me up
I default to slut
“We don’t see what the fuss is honey.
You can fake this stuff”
Uh oh, where do the funny ones go?
Cinderella’s sisters tell us
Nothing in the final edit
Cause we left them blinded, bled and
Screaming through the rolling credits
Made a mistake, played it straight
How many punchlines til she breaks?
Splitting on seams, no reprieve
What I get is what you see
Always thought I could be the good daughter
And that diamonds would beckon me through the gate
But the madwoman read me for wicked
And integrity left me a little too late
But I’m yours at last
Did you want me bad?
I can handle that
I’ve had all this practice honey
Do you like my act?
Uh oh, where do the funny ones go
When they get old?

about

Hannah vs. The Many image

Hannah vs. The Many Brooklyn, New York

"(Fairchild's)songs play out like tiny musicals - they’re dramatic, punchy, and lightly dusted with Stephen Sondheim’s lyricality ... you can hear a likeness to his dark theatre in her music."

- WNYC Soundcheck

"The key's in the name. Hannah vs The Many. Not Hannah AND The Many... You wouldn't want to be part of the "Many" Hannah Fairchild's ferociously taking down - track by track."
- Deli NYC ... more
