The Ophelias

The Ophelias were a psychedelic rock band led by singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist Leslie Medford. Medford formed the band in San Francisco in October 1984 and disbanded the quartet in September 1989. The band was signed twice, first by Strange Weekend Records for one album, then by Rough Trade Records, for whom they produced 2 albums and an EP.

Fun always comes at a cost
You're down on your luck
I'm taking the blame as always
When your cannons misfire

I wanna be just like
The girls you like
I wanna be what you fantasize

EMT who needs the
Class of 2015 calling

Dark circles under my eyes
I control nothing
You are a ready fire to burn
Plastic bags in a life urn

I wanna be just like
The girls you like
I wanna be what you fantasize

EMT who needs the
Class of 2015 calling

Control me like a puppet
Call me on my cell phone
I'm General Electric
You're a Casanova

I know what I'm doing
You can just come over
Be the one I'm calling
Get me down on all fours

Cut to my expression
Hold me in the sunlight
I am being thorough
Oh, you know that I try

Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can fight it
Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can be right
Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can fight it
Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can be right

EMT who needs the
Class of 2015 calling
