You're always watching me Just like big brother Last time I checked it out You're not my mother No Now you're feeling protective I wish you a lot of luck Cause this system Is set to self destruct This system Is set to self destruct Boy you bring to my life Lotta hot problems Last time I checked it out Not mine to solve them No Now you're feeling protective I wish you a lot of luck Cause this system Is set to self destruct This system Is set to self destruct Self destruct Self destruct Self destruct No Now you're feeling protective I wish you a lot of luck Cause this system Is set to self destruct This system Is set to self destruct Self destruct Self destruct Self destruct

My love is a hopeless case I put my hand up to his face Little bit of sympathy Little bit of honesty A precious waste Heartache It's got you in its sights It's far too late to make it right Heartache knows your name Heartache knows your name You don't need to look for it It'll find you just the same Heartache knows your name My love likes to pull on threads Cuffs and collars all in shreds It works its way inside I know where he resides No known address Heartache It's been 'round here before You don't need to walk it to your door Heartache knows your name Heartache knows your name You don't need to look for it It'll find you just the same Heartache knows your name There's no problem you can't make worse There's no problem you can't make worse There's no problem you can't make worse Heartache knows your name Heartache knows your name Heartache knows your name Heartache knows your name

Come to my house No words, no doubt Come shut my mouth oh Don't you say it Don't you break it Come and take it oh Oh I like the quiet type Oh I like the quiet type Monosyllabic man Monosyllabic man Monosyllabic man of mine Smell of wet leaves Hiss of hot steam Taste of wet dreams oh Clouds crack flash framed Sound of hard rain You man me Jane oh Oh I like the quiet type Oh I like the quiet type Monosyllabic man Monosyllabic man Monosyllabic man of mine There's no price I would not pay For the things that you don't say There's no price I would not pay For the things that you don't say There's no price I would not pay For the things that you don't say There's no price I would not pay For the things that you don't say

How large will the circle grow? She'll try anything And everyone you know The waves rush in And they take a man Throw back a body on the sand Don't do it for me Don't do it for her Be your own reason Be your own reason Any time the starter takes a spill He goes back to The medicine that kills Don't do it for pride Or all the times I lied Be your own reason Be your own reason Be your own reason Oh oh oh oh You told me to get lost So I have Any good pirate Has a map for that Don't do it for love Please don't do it for love Be your own reason Be your own reason Be your own reason

I know This is larceny I know It's a shameful piracy I know People look at you and me All they see is thievery But love doesn't know Love doesn't know I know You've got yourself a girl I know There's no place for us in this world I know You've gone away with her She shows me all the pictures But love doesn't know Love doesn't know Love doesn't know Love doesn't know a thing It doesn't know a thing I know The sea is full of men I know I've got a lot of special friends I know That all the second bests Would hold me close with kindness But love doesn't know Love doesn't know Love doesn't know Love doesn't know a thing It doesn't know a thing It doesn't know a thing doesn't know a thing

about

Justine and the Unclean are back ready to Runaway with you on their sophomore release... Heartaches And Hot Problems, a brand new batch of power-pop punk songs injected with a dash of hard rock -- another set of steely-eyed takes on love, loss, and the fucked-up, weird, and painful ways it ends. Or begins.

The Unclean are Boston music heavyweights, including Justine Covault (Malachite, Grand Theft Auto, Quest For Tuna) as lead vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter; Justine’s partner in crime from Malachite and Swank Janet Egan King (Heidi, Malachite, Swank, Tulips), on powerhouse bass lines & dirty-sweet harmony backing vocals; Charles Hansen (Rock Bottom, Tom Baker & the Snakes, Gymnasium, The Handymen) on ferocious lead guitar attack. Jim Janota (Upper Crust, The Bags, Rock Bottom) swings the lumber (dude, are those two-by-fours?) to round out the rock n’ roll assault.

It’s punk. It’s power pop. It’s power pop punk. It’s paisley rock. It’s glam metal. The record has it all: anthems, hooks, raw power, big amps, scorching guitars, a massive rhythm section worthy of any arena, and utterly irresistible choruses.
