Pushing daisies es la undécima pista y el cuarto avance del álbum Little death wishes de CocoRosie (2025). Lanzamiento 5 de marzo de 2025.
Años atrás, las hermanas Casady quedaron perplejas y paralizadas ante un cartel que decía: “Las mujeres también conducen borrachas”. ¿Fue algún tipo de dicho feminista?. ¿Una proclamación de que para ver la plenitud de una mujer hay que reconocer primero su quebrantamiento?. Las preguntas que planteó el cartel, independientemente de su intención, ayudaron a aclarar los propios mensajes de las hermanas. Poco después escribieron 'Pushing daisies'. Un tema electrónico de dormitorio que rastrea las venas del trauma intergeneracional compartido entre tres miembros femeninos de una familia, la canción transforma espiritualmente clichés de dolor en nuevas revelaciones. Muestra a las mujeres en todo su dinamismo, sus fractales y astillas cosidas en un todo.
OficialLetra
Momma’s in the junkhouse working for her backseat poppy
(her backseat poppy, her backseat poppy)
Momma’s in the graveyard, she’s pushing daisies (she’s pushing daisies)
Sister’s in the madhouse dreaming of her junkyard mommy (her junkyard mommy)
Baby’s in the playhouse waiting for her deadbeat daddy
(her deadbeat daddy, her deadbeat daddy)
Mamma’s in her backyard-drifting
Dropping all her dimes and nickels
Waiting for her backseat poppy
Fucking door bell never ringing
Now that cranky rooster calling
In the early crack of dawning
Going looney tooney yawny
Dreaming of her backseat poppy
Poppy promised he would call her
Poppy said he would do better
Left her fiending lonely dreaming
With a baby crying screaming
Poppy dumped her poppy dropped her
Poppy knocked her up and locked her
Left her in that junkyard dying
With a baby screaming crying
Momma’s in the junkhouse working for her backseat poppy
(her backseat poppy, her backseat poppy)
Momma’s in the graveyard, she’s pushing daisies (she’s pushing daisies)
Sister’s in the madhouse dreaming of her junkyard mommy (her junkyard mommy)
Baby’s in the playhouse waiting for her deadbeat daddy
(her deadbeat daddy, her deadbeat daddy)
Momma’s in the junkhouse working for her backseat poppy
(her backseat poppy, her backseat poppy)
Momma’s in the graveyard, she’s pushing daisies (she’s pushing daisies)
Sister’s in the madhouse dreaming of her junkyard mommy (her junkyard mommy)
Baby’s in the playhouse waiting for her deadbeat daddy
(her deadbeat daddy, her deadbeat daddy)
Sissy’s in the henhouse thinking of her junky mommy
Lost her head crossed the bridge
Never coming back again
Fucking cracking up her business
She took too much fucking acid
Now she’s counting feathers falling
In the graveyard poppy’s calling
He got dead
Lost her head
She got kids but never wed
He went south
Dirty mouth
Nothing left but broken house
He got dead
Lost her head
She got kids but never wed
He went south
Dirty mouth
Nothing left but broken house
Momma’s in the junkhouse working for her backseat poppy
(her backseat poppy, her backseat poppy)
Momma’s in the graveyard, she’s pushing daisies (she’s pushing daisies)
Sister’s in the madhouse dreaming of her junkyard mommy (her junkyard mommy)
Baby’s in the playhouse waiting for her deadbeat daddy
(her deadbeat daddy, her deadbeat daddy)
