about

Inspired by the graphic novel 'Persepolis' by Marjane Satrapi

lyrics

There's bombing it's just right outside of the window
There's bombing it just killed my neighbor last week
But I'm gonna go listen to my new album
If I've gotta die might as well keep the beat

There's lots of new rules that I don't want to follow
They've banned every last thing that might make you smile
But I'll tell you what I am wearing my new jeans
If I've gotta go down I'll go down in style

And almost everyone that I know is leaving
Some were arrested and some had to flee
But I'll tell you what I'm not going anywhere
If I've gotta die I'll do it right here

And baby you will sail away in the morning
I can hear gunshots right down in the street
So we're gonna make love right out in the kitchen
There's no better living to make our hearts beat

There's bombing it's just right outside of the window
They just arrested my uncle in July
But I'll tell you what I am throwing a party
If I've gotta die I'll do it with wine

Said if I've gotta die I want to be alive

Debbie Miller Seattle, Washington

Seattle songwriter Debbie Miller is like a tantalizing book of short stories. There are few musicians who work as diligently as she to be as narratively engaging. Her lyrics, like tightrope walkers, rollick on the taught wire of song, guiltlessly and pointedly inspiring listeners who crave more of their spectacle. Miller has played prominent Northwest festivals like Timbrrr! and Upstream. ... more
