"Triple Dog Dare" Lyrics:
I'm not tired yet.
We still got a lot to figure out,
like what was the end of the movie about, anyways?
You're yawning on your couch.
I wonder if I've overstayed my welcome
until you ask me if I'd like to take a walk.
We're going to the five and dime,
the only open place at this time of night.
You're dancing in the aisle cause the radio
is singing a song you know.
The kid at the counter is gawking at your grace.
I can tell what he's thinking by the look on his face.
It's not his fault, I'm sure I look the same.
It's what you do, but it's not you I blame.
Your mama read my palm.
She wouldn't tell me what it was she saw,
but after that, you weren't allowed to spend the night.
I'm staring at my hands.
Red, ruddy skin I don't understand.
How did they betray me? What did I do?
I never touched you how I wanted to.
What can I say to your ma to let you come outside?
You know I'll be seeking if you run and hide.
If the door were to open, would you walk through the frame?
If you're too afraid, it won't be you I blame.
You passed a note in class,
told me to meet you at the overpass.
Your lip was trembling when you said that we are cursed.
You're trying not to cry
when you tell me you're afraid that we may die.
I said, “So what?
Everybody's scared of that.”
I want you to tell me that you miss me,
want you to hold and hurt and kiss me.
I want to run away and live on your family's boat.
It's a triple dog dare, you're a chicken if you don't.
I can fish for our food and you know how to start a flame.
If you don't get out now, you'll only have yourself to blame.
You said, “You have me there,
if it's a triple dog dare.”
A triple dog dare
A triple dog dare…
They put our faces on the milk jugs.
Missing children til they gave up.
Your mama was right, and through the grief
can't fight the feeling of relief.
Nothing worse can happen now.
Nothing worse can happen now.
Nothing worse can happen now.

#LucyDacus #HomeVideo
I see that Night Shift has recieved its appropriate, much needed and thunderous sequel.
Amen
*prequel
this has simultaneously been the best and worst seven minutes of my life, thank you
i fucking love songs that EXPLODE at the end literally my favorite genre
SAME omg
I don't get it, how? how does she embody desperation, nostalgia, yearning, affection, frustration, so many stages of an experience all put into 7 minutes and a half. Lucy Dacus never stop writing
She’s a true storyteller
This is an indie rock anthem, a melancholy masterpiece, and the first song to make me both laugh and cry.
possibly my all time favorite song by her. ive never heard anything that captured the feelings of young, queer love quite like this song does, its truly beautiful.
perfect ending to a perfect album
i cried so hard after knowing a part of the story behind this
hey where can i find it?
@@thaisacristino Here's what she's said about it, it's heartbreaking:
In high school I was friends with this girl and we would spend all our time together. Neither of us were out, but I think that her mom saw that there was romantic potential, even though I wouldn’t come out to myself for many years later. The first verses of the song are true: Her mom kept us apart, our friendship didn’t last. But the ending of the song is this fictitious alternative where the characters actually do prioritise each other and get out from under the thumbs of their parents and they steal a boat and they run away and it’s sort of left to anyone’s interpretation whether or not they succeed at that or if they die at sea. There’s no such thing as nonfiction. I felt empowered by finding out that I could just do that, like no one was making me tell the truth in that scenario. Songwriting doesn’t have to be reporting.
@@akielsurajdeen2817 the last part is really fascinating to me. reminds me of something richard siken once said, when people started poking too much about how much of his poetry was "true", he said "i am the writer, not the story".
@@akielsurajdeen2817 the mum at the end is glad that nothing "worse" (her child being gay) could happen now 😭
@@als_palsI actually read an excerpt from an interview and that part is based on a book Lucy read where a child dies and the mother reacts with this
Every time I listen to this song I fall in love with a different part of it
i wish i could listen to this for the first time again
thank you miss dacus i cried so so much
I didn’t realize this song was 7 minutes and 44 seconds, every time I listen to it I feel like it ends too quickly.
I don’t think I’ve ever cried so hard at the final two songs of an album since Brian Eno’s “Before and After Science,” especially “Please Stay” since I’m going through the same emotional trauma as the person the narrator is talking to in that song. Saw you a few days ago in Lawrence, Kansas. Definitely will be one of my top five shows of the year and it’s only February. Just a brilliant performance and you had everyone in that crowd experiencing more than just a concert. Please get better soon, Lucy, I can’t even imagine what it’s like having two herniated discs let alone touring and performing with them almost every night. Sincerely, an older man who is glad he discovered your music when he did. L’chaim.
best song on the album!!😭😭
One of the best on the album for sure. A triumphant ending.
The heavy part at the end >>
i am obsessed with this song. it haunts me at all waking hours and everytime i listen to it i feel like i have been shot but i cant stop listening.
Lyrics:

A triple dog dare
A triple dog dare
A triple dog dare

Final verse:
They put our faces on the milk jugs
Missing children 'til they gave up
Your mama was right, and through the grief
Can't fight the feeling of relief
Nothing worse could happen now
Nothing worse could happen now
Nothing worse could happen now
This song is a masterpiece.
This song has the storytelling level that Joanna Newsom works with. Easily one of the best songwriters of our time
this song is so beautiful LUCY U ARE A GENIUS!!!!
This song is keeping me sane while I recover from Covid-19...thank you Lucy
over a year on and I still listen almost daily, thank you lucy
My favorite song on the album🥲🥲🥲 thank you for this, Lucy❤️
this song feels so intimate i feel like there's only one person in the world that could listen to it. yet i genuinely love this song because it reminds me of things too.
being queer is such an unique feeling. i hope we all that relate to this song may feel a gentle love wo prejudice one day
so perfect. thank you Lucy.
this song hits so damn hard
Your music saved me❤
Such a great ending 😭
I listen to this while bathing my pug.
F**king catharsis, the ending of this one.
So glad I found this
LUCYYYY WHATTT
This is some seriously great stuff, been listening for days and was fed some acid but thanks for the beautiful music...
This song has me wrecked.
Wrecked like a car accident here too.
This is the one 😭
Thanks Lucy!
Reminds me of Yellow by Coldplay. Also getting OK computer era Radiohead vibes for some reason.
maybe its the quiet to loud like exit music
this is my good luck babe
please, do the live version soon, I love this song and I'm literally dying for it
❤❤❤
hello lgbtq community
shes so evil for writing this song
i died

I miss you... I can only hope you miss me too.
omg i listened to it in 1.75 fr
triple dog dare
i triple dog dare you to call your crush!
hey crush, i love you
ooooooooohhhhh

might as well
woof woof woof woof WOOF WOOF
i triple dog dare you to turn into a dryer
no i dont wanna be a dryer!!
triple. dog. dare.
aaaaaahhh
actually, being a dryer isnt so bad
Wait did they run away or commit suicide at the end?
she said: ''The first verses of the song are true: Her mom kept us apart, our friendship didn’t last.

Songwriting doesn’t have to be reporting.'' so it's whatever you want it to be (:
@@user-jm1re7kj9j right!, this song reads to me as an empowering young, lgbt love story of two people who runaway together in spite of a parent's disapproval. the parent's use of something as arbitrary as a palm reading as a reason to disapprove of their child's love is akin to parent's disapproving of their child's love because of something as arbitrary as sexuality
They got discovered at the 5 and dime as missing children
pighati
tama
WHY WOULD SHE WRITE THIS 😭
