I will never forget when you played Polite Company at the Austin City Limits Live Taping, and I shouted PREAAACH and made you guys laugh. Best memory ever.
My favorite song from these guys, saw them in Memphis in 2019 during a rough time in my life and that show was arguably the thing that set my sights on a better path, I am infinitely better off for having heard this beautiful music 💙
Lyrics: She's/he's the edge between the sacred and profane And means at least one other language you would never speak in polite company She's a dancer, lone riddle in the answer She auditioned for romantics But no calls from the right company She'll never love the way you need her to, darlin' You'll never lift her at all She only wants the man she thinks is you, darlin' You'll only take her if you think you could lose So what if I don't find you, take you back? I only want what I can't have If you love me, give me nothing But Polite company We're the dance among the drunklegs, a contest between Untied lace, pop-shoegaze, and 808 heartbreak We both caught the pace of two hearts, offbeat What will hold you when the dance is through? Put your back against the wall Follow syncopated water fountain conversation Making love inside a crayon covered bathroom stall What if I don't find you, take you there? I only want what I can't have If you love me, give me nothing Nothing Some simple math Two I can add I ain't writing it down I remember now what you came for, where your aim is Maintain it Try to burn the right glow I'll be on my way out I'll be over soon Sober later Fire that only I'd know You've been on my radar Are you lonely too? 'Cause your coast is clear to get a hold on me She's the edge between the cadence of my name And on these walls another language we would never speak In polite company
This song is so underrated. I have a soft spot for that trope about the tragedy of one who falls in love with a prostitute.
This song, and entire band has guided me through some of my worst heartache. Thank you RKS
You know this song is underrated AF when it only has 16k views. Amazing performance!
I would’ve been sobbing if I was in the crowd 😭
i was already crying just watching this video
my favorite song by them makes me cry every time
Your beautiful
@@alunacara1 omg stop thank you so much that’s so nice of you you made my day 🖤🖤
This would be the music I would want w/ me on a deserted island.

I hate when people yell like that during slow emotional songs. Feels kinda selfish.
Beautiful. Thank you for making life beautiful.
Heard this so long ago but here recently it's my very favorite. The entire car ride is this. Just so very good.
I’m in the exact same boat! Came across it on my playlist after not having heard it in forever, now it’s practically on constant repeat

Lyrics:
She's/he's the edge between the sacred and profane
And means at least one other language you would never speak in polite company
She's a dancer, lone riddle in the answer
She auditioned for romantics
But no calls from the right company
She'll never love the way you need her to, darlin'
You'll never lift her at all
She only wants the man she thinks is you, darlin'
You'll only take her if you think you could lose
So what if I don't find you, take you back?
I only want what I can't have
If you love me, give me nothing
But
Polite company
We're the dance among the drunklegs, a contest between
Untied lace, pop-shoegaze, and 808 heartbreak
We both caught the pace of two hearts, offbeat
What will hold you when the dance is through?
Put your back against the wall
Follow syncopated water fountain conversation
Making love inside a crayon covered bathroom stall
What if I don't find you, take you there?
I only want what I can't have
If you love me, give me nothing
Nothing
Some simple math
Two I can add
I ain't writing it down
I remember now what you came for, where your aim is
Maintain it
Try to burn the right glow
I'll be on my way out
I'll be over soon
Sober later
Fire that only I'd know
You've been on my radar
Are you lonely too?
'Cause your coast is clear to get a hold on me
She's the edge between the cadence of my name
And on these walls another language we would never speak
In polite company
Close enuff....
