Noticing the change, we are taking time
Everybody knows, everybody's fine
And we'll figure out, purpose in the end
Unless we have to jump, unless we have to win

Hold your tongue, brace yourself
Give me a kiss, show me what I've missed

Can I find a phone, can I drop a dime
Can I get a loan, running out of time
And I'll have a toast to what it's all about
Unless they move us on, unless they move us out

Hold your tongue, brace yourself
Give me a kiss, show me what I've missed

Seven doglegs hung to dry, it works that way
Postal blowfish makes me cry, it works that way
Begging on the nail, don't fail to clue me in
Cluster frogs and crabs begin

Though best known as a guitarist and keyboardist for The Strokes, Hammond has also been performing periodic solo work since his 2006 debut album Yours To Keep.

Still a member of The Strokes despite the controversy surrounding and following their 2013 album Comedown Machine, Hammond began to gain more traction upon releasing his 2013 AHJ – EP under Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas‘ Cult Records Label.

Though still an official part of his bandmate’s label, he released his 2015 album Momentary Masters through Vagrant Records.
