Adam Green (born May 28, 1981 in Mount Kisco, New York) is an American singer-songwriter, artist and filmmaker.
Green is well known for his involvement in the Anti-folk music movement and as one half of the band The Moldy Peaches. Green has found success as a solo artist, enjoying increasing popularity in the United States as well as a number of European countries, particularly Germany.
Green attended Emerson College for one semester in 1998 before leaving to concentrate on his music, going on to co-found The Moldy Peaches with Kimya Dawson. In 2002, the Moldy Peaches went on hiatus, and both Green and Dawson embarked on solo careers.
Green released several albums on Rough Trade Records. Among his better known songs are "Jessica" (about singer Jessica Simpson), "Novotel", "Friends of Mine", "Dance with Me", "Carolina" and "Emily", and in the UK, his cover of The Libertines track "What a Waster". "Jessica" (#63, 2004) and "Emily" (#53, 2005) both appeared in the UK Singles Chart.
Apples, I'm home
Gonna grab a f*ck (Maybe play some hockey)
My mouth is a liar (beware)
My feet are on fire (who cares)
I've never been shy-er (i'm not scared)
If everyone's bumping around
Because
Knowers know to know and
Goers go to go and
Show-ers show to show and
No one's gonna ask your name
When you fade into forever
(i can't figure out the lyrics to this line. can anyone help?)
How can anyone say right or wrong (i love you)
And then tell you you're ok
Oh I loved the ground once
And i kept my fingers warm
Everything was true
Everything was true
When your
Penis fell apart and
No one had a heart and
No one had a chart to
Show you the right way
Had to be a creature
Without specific features
There were no teachers
To tell you what to say (rip out your guts)
