about

Equal parts Western soundtrack and roots-rock
odyssey, The Cover Letter's new single
"Dollhouse" is a barroom brawler with a heart of
gold. The band jumps and rattles through a
classic tale of obsession and redemption under
the red lights, with huge four-part harmonies and
propulsive head-knocking riffs. You can shimmy,
you can shake, but out here, you can't fall in love.

lyrics

Throw your cares to the wind
Here’s a place where there’s no sin
Play the game that you will never win
Keep the lonely coming back again

No, there is nothing strange
As long as you’ve got the change

You can’t get enough
This won’t last forever
Might have thought it love
But you should have known better

She will bring your dreams to life
Poison fruit for your appetite
No right or wrong, no black or white
It’s all about green in the beams of the red light

No, there is nothing strange
As long as you’ve got the change

You can’t get enough
This won’t last forever
Might have thought it love
But you should have known better

You can’t get away
Her touch is a tether
A pound of flesh to pay
You’ll leave here a beggar

Falling in love with you
Darling, that just won’t do
No, that just won’t do
