lyrics

So you’ve come to the market
And you’ve traveled, you’ve traveled so far
And you’ve reached in the sack
that you bore on your back
And you've laid out all your treasures and scars, my love
You've laid out your treasures and scars

And you’re worried no buyer will want you
And the clouds turn gray in the sky
There’s a woman who steals from your table
There’s a child who spits in your eye

So walk down the road again, my friend
And pick out a place you can stand
In the rain, in the snow
Let your offerings unroll
And get what you think you can
Keep your head held high
And pray to your god above
Though they all pass you by,
don’t you cover your eyes
For you’re looking, you’re looking for love
You're looking, looking for love

There's a little girl here on the market
Skipping rope while they measure and weigh
And she taunts you with songs of the schoolyard
Saying you smell of decay, my love
Saying you smell of decay

And it’s difficult here on the market
But tomorrow may bring a new day
And they can’t take your chance
So go into your dance
And keep brushing the flies away

And walk down the road again, my friend
And pick out a place you can stand
In the rain, in the snow
Let your offerings unroll
And get what you think you can
Keep your head held high
And pray to your god above
Though they all pass you by,
don’t you cover your eyes
For you’re looking, you’re looking for love
You're looking, looking for love

And we’re all on the market
And we’re covered in damage and flaws
Do you still dream of hearing
The sound of a little applause?

And it’s beautiful here on the market
In a story obscene and divine
We’re fools in a play,
and it’s lovely that way
For each one is one of a kind

So walk down the road again, my friend
And pick out a place you can stand
In the rain, in the snow
Let your offerings unroll
And get what you think you can
Keep your head held high
And pray to your god above
No you may not be fine,
but you're one of a kind
And you're looking, you're looking for love
You're looking, looking for love

about

The Love Markets Seattle, Washington

Weimar Berlin meets New Orleans! The Love Markets bring bite and soul to their modern mashup of bordello brass, funky bass and sultry cabaret rhythm, luring you into alleys haunted by pulp heroines and speakeasies rich with subversion.

"Irresistible.. A deliciously dark carnival."
-Seattle Magazine

"Ruffle-clad ruffians...Angie Louise is a singer- songwriter with fearsome chops."
