Folks, it's Grace Potter and the Nocturnals!They're actually headlining at the First Flush FesTEAval today over in Charleston... at the tea plantantion. The First Flush event is 5 years strong today, and it signifies the start of another season (of tea). The "first flush" is made from the seasons first growth, which is said to have a supremely different effect on the palette. A richer, more flavorful taste. I was planning to go (tea AND great live music ... win/win!), but since that fell through, I'll just highlight them for this weeks Sunday's Songbird.
Now, in order to get as close to the experience as possible you'll need:
- a cup of your favorite tea (hot or cold)
- your laptop outside (or your desktop speakers turned WAY up and the windows open)
- a pretty tapestry (or soft blanket) thrown over the grass
- bare feet
- and possibly a hula hoop; that's a judgement call
I got the medicine that everybody wants!
Medicine ~Grace Potter and the Nocturnals
Policy woman got a hold on my baby
Since she come around, he ain’t been the same
She look at him with her dark brown eyes
She tell him things that would make a grown man cry
Policy woman took the love from my lover
He’s been in a haze since the day that he saw her
She shook her hips and her long black hair
Now all my baby does is stare... at the gypsy woman
Well, you like the way she makes you feel
She got you spinning on her medicine wheel
She’s crossing me with magnetic sand
She hypnotize with her mojo hand
She got the medicine that everybody wants
She got the medicine that everybody wants
She got the medicine that everybody wants
She got the medicine that everybody wants
Policy woman came a rolling into town
She got all the gentlemen to follow her down
She found the diamonds hidden in the drain
She disappeared on the ghost train
Well, you like the way that she makes you feel
She got you spinning on her policy wheel
Deep in the night, when no one’s around
I’ve got a plan to take that woman down
She got the medicine that everybody wants
She got the medicine that everybody wants
She got the medicine that everybody wants
She got the medicine that everybody wants
I stole her bag of rattling bones
Her fast-luck oil and her magic stones
I swept up her magnetic sand
I took her love potion and her mojo hand... now I
I got the medicine that everybody wants
I got the medicine that everybody wants
I got the medicine that everybody wants
I got the medicine that everybody wants
I got the medicine
I got the medicine
I got the medicine
I got the medicine
I got the medicine that everybody wants!
