What's with all the Portuguese water dogs?

john darnielle will say “no you don’t understand guys, this line was SO bad, it’s literally the worst thing ever i couldn’t even release the song because it was so awful and i couldn’t fix it,” and then the line will be “I've got a Kenmore single-room window unit air conditioner.”

A lot of pre 2003 mountain goats is random and occasionally stupid shit and usually im on board and I recognize this one’s probably going over my head and that’s like the whole point or whatever but also i have to ask, because I just have to, and i know i will never get an answer but. Pure Honey goes like this.

What possibly could have inspired a song this specific. What’s with all the Portuguese water dogs, John?

[jennying-my-thebes]

I made a playlist!! I have always noticed how in many, many, MANY songs, John brings up some random place so I decided to go through every single song on spotify and compile them all into one playlist! I tried to organize it the way it made sense in my brain, so it starts with the "Going to" songs, then does the songs with places in the titles, then there are a few songs that don't have places in the names but rather denonyms, and finally the rest are songs with unrelated titles but that mention places in the lyrics. yes i have autism

i'm leaving out all hail west texas on purpose because it would sweep and i'm curious to know what people like otherwise! i'm also including the compilation albums rather than all their individual sources

“How’s it goin, my name’s John, i’m from Iowa. We’re the Mountain Goats *strums*, all of us, and this is called “Handball””

Thinking about this radio version of Handball. Just listen.

i don’t give a rat’s ass, you rat bastards

And I know you're only watching out for yourself And I know I'm not to take it real personal-like And I know you only want what's best for everybody I know you only want what's best for everybody But you better be nice or the Easter Bunny's gonna strike your name out of the little red book with the silver hinges on it that he carries
