    Remastered by João Carvalho at Revolution
    Includes a download card to the digital deluxe edition of this release

    Domino is pleased to announce a remastered reissue of Owen Pallett’s early catalogue. Pallett has built a reputation on live virtuosity, as violinist for the many local Toronto bands, followed by the wild looped-violin songwriting solo project. Has a Good Homeserves as an introduction (and features many of Pallett’s best-known songs), and the follow-up He Poos Cloudsis a string quartet album based on the Dungeons & Dragons School of Magic, and was awarded the inaugural Polaris Music Prize.

    Please note: Any purchases of the digital album previously made via Owen Pallett's Bandcamp has been the remastered audio.

    Includes unlimited streaming of He Poos Clouds via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Got a daughter who’ll eat anything 

They like to feed her words, words, words 

Tell her, watch for the plague, girl, check your stool 

Or we’ll send you to reformatory school 

Where they’ll make a man out of you 

And they’ll press what is left into new 

They’ll press what is left into new 

They’ll press what’s left into new 



Out of dust, out of empty space 

From the bedroom to the marketplace 

You be bold, but not too bold, and frame it all in gold, in gold 

Your credibility is broken in two 

But we’ll press what is left into new 

We’ll press what is left into new 

We’ll press what’s left into new 



Let’s sing a song about a woman’s rage 

Sing a song about an empty stage 

A song, a song about how to sing 

A song song song about everything! 

Cause you’re tough, for a girl, and you’re smart, for a girl 

Stop, stop your ears from burning, fill my stomach with your singing 



Concern concern concern yourself with the invisible! 

Concern concern concern yourself with the incredible! 

Don’t turn to motherhood so fast, you have been blinded 

There’s a word for all you keep inside 

And though you try to hide it, we will write it
