So bum me a cigarette,
Buy me a beer,
'Til I'm happy to be here,
Happy to be here

With all of my family
Hookers in heels
and the men who watch them
like hungry black eels

Run into me Sunday
Tell me you had one hell of a time
And through the haze and the gunsmoke
I'm forced to believe you're probably right

And someone lies bleeding
Someone got violent and did not think twice
And I watched you my brother
Making a fool of the moon tonight

So bum me a cigarette,
Buy me a beer,
'Til I'm happy to be here,
Happy to be here

With all of my family
Hookers in heels
and the men who watch them
like hungry black eels

Am I just a spark?Lyrics provided by TANCODEhttp://lyricsever.com/" readonly=""/>

Family Lyrics

Say something awful
as if fucking the world is your right
And I watch you stumble
drunk out into the night.

To catcall ladies,
you're thirsty for blood
you're picking a fight
And I wanted to ask you
"Man, what do you do in the daylight?"

So bum me a cigarette,
Buy me a beer,
'Til I'm happy to be here,
Happy to be here

With all of my family
Hookers in heels
and the men who watch them
like hungry black eels

Run into me Sunday
Tell me you had one hell of a time
And through the haze and the gunsmoke
I'm forced to believe you're probably right

And someone lies bleeding
Someone got violent and did not think twice
And I watched you my brother
Making a fool of the moon tonight

So bum me a cigarette,
Buy me a beer,
'Til I'm happy to be here,
Happy to be here

With all of my family
Hookers in heels
and the men who watch them
like hungry black eels

Am I just a spark?

Noah Gundersen, lead singer of the The Courage (also known as Noah Gundersen And The Courage), hails from Centralia, Washington - a small town 85 miles south of Seattle on the I-5 corridor. Gundersen has been making music since childhood, learning piano at a young age and later teaching himself guitar. He often played in cafés as a teen, occasionally with his younger sister, Abby Gundersen, the two have been formally producing music since 2005.

Gundersen's music banks on strong lead vocals, boasting a poetic and lyrical charm, backed by ambient backgrounds of strings and percussion. Gundersen's music has been called a blend of melancholy folk and electric euphoria, occasionally drawing comparisons to the likes of Elijah Wyman, David Wilcox, and Damien Rice. Drawing the attention of crowds across the South Puget Sound region, Noah Gundersen regularly performs in a variety of settings, ranging from small college basements to more prestigious venues such as the Triple Door, the Crocodile Cafe, and the Columbia City Theater.

Gundersen and his younger sister usually create studio work on their own - together they have produced two EPs, a live album, and most recently two full length albums:

• Brand New World EP (Noah Gundersen) - 2008
• Live at The Triple Door (Noah Gundersen & The Courage) - 2008
• Saints & Liars EP (Noah Gundersen & The Courage) - Oct. 9, 2009
• Fearful Bones (The Courage) - Sept. 11, 2010
• Family (Noah Gundersen) - Aug. 6, 2011
