about
Motion Blur was recorded at Parallel Studios in the Crown Hill district of Seattle, winter 2011. Mixed by Animals. Mastered by Steve Turnidge.
"This year-old Seattle quartet show a fondness for early Merge and Matador Records bands like Sebadoh and Pavement on their eight-song debut which is heavy on heavily distorted guitars and sunny melodies. "Nothing" could be an outtake from Weezer's Blue Album, and though the playing and production is a bit sloppy in parts, Animals in Cars ought to have no trouble finding an audience for this stuff. A solid debut."

- Track Name: Give Em Back
-
oh my love, it was just the calm before the storm
so give em back to me
give em back to me
you had it all planned out in the end
are we all where we belong?
where we're meant to be
I don't care if there's no point
to this misery
cause in the end I still love
that you can't destroy
I love the shadows of the cosmos
drawn like magnets to our fate
just sit back there's no escape
is it all planned out in the end?
olly olly oxen free
I hurt you and you hurt me
is it all planned out in the end? - Track Name: Until
-
until I'm ready for the grave
I will know it was your idea
and now you know to some degree
even though you'll never get it all the way
all of these years
what have you been thinking?
untie your pets
cause your ship is sinking
and don't think you'll ever learn
what's up and what's down and
don't think you'll ever learn
until it smacks you in the face
you will have a hard road ahead of you
and now I'll spell it out for you
even though you'll never get it anyway
hide her away
high in your castle and
no one gets hurt
but no one is living
and don't think I'll ever learn
you must hold love palm up and
don't think I'll ever learn
a sociopath is a sociopath
animals in cars
a double cross is a double cross
stabbed me in my back
stabbed me in the back
stabbed me in the back
didn't you?
didn't you? - Track Name: Nothing
-
I know I'm nothing
but you see something in me
that takes me higher
like the world's smiling at me
and I don't think I'm asking for too much
in another world I will marry you
in another world I will set you free
your eyes your smile
you're lying through your teeth
now I can tell you're poison in my veins
you're just like any other drug
you're always going up
unless you're coming down
you're always going up unless you're down - Track Name: Step Aside
-
I feel defeat again
like it's my only friend
and that's not how it's supposed to be
the walls are caving in
and I don't where I've been
and that's not how it's supposed to be
we go dancing under stars
higher than we should have been
we feel free but we can't roam far
notify the next of kin
cause someday when you're more mature
you will see it is absurd
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know how to do it
so step aside
cause I know how to do it
I feel complete again
more than written in the sand
and that's the way it's supposed to be
when you look me in the eyes
like you could never lie
that's the way it's supposed to be
we go dancing around stars
higher than we should have been
we feel free but we can't roam far
notify the next of kin
cause someday when you're more mature
you will see it is absurd
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know how to do it
so step aside
cause I know how to do it - Track Name: Spider Song

I wanna be a spider on your wall
make you scared but I am very small
You must admit I have good taste
hanging out above your face
I'm being blown around by your hot breath
I must admit you make me such a mess
I haven't spun a web in days
too bad dreaming doesn't pay
every time that I think I'm out
I crawl back 'round
I think I got shit figured out
no not at all
there's something missing
there's something missing
I'm gonna crawl across your legs
I like to see what I can get away with
in the dark
you haven't even noticed the design
all the shapes and intricate straight lines
you must admit I have a case
you're cleaning web up off your face
the screaming really added a nice touch
I can't believe you're making such a fuss
I must admit I am surprised
I didn't mean to make you cry
every time that I think I'm out
I crawl back 'round
I think I got shit figured out
no not at all
there's something missing
there's something missing
there's something missing
there's something missing
I bet you thought I was an insect
I bet you thought I was an insect
I'm gonna crawl across your legs
I like to see what I can get away with
in the dark
I'd rather die
than catch a fly
I'd rather die
than catch a fly
