The lyrics of tUnE-yArDs may seem tangential in the swirling colorful mind of songwriter Merrill Garbus but to the common listeners we can only take away what we can piece together through chaotic lines of off-kilter metaphors. But that’s no matter as their latest track is a skipping summer time jam, with enough “woo-has” to make us feel like we know exactly what Garbus is talking about.
“Water Fountain” is off tUnE-yArDs' forthcoming album Nikki Nack due out May 6 via 4AD.
