Alex Cameron - Stranger's Kiss Lyrics






[Alex Cameron:]
Don't even bother climbing out of the well
That ain't no way to get out of the hell that you're in
If you wanna see the back of it, girl
You better start digging down with your pail of tin
I got shat on by an eagle, baby
Now I'm king of the neighborhood
And it feels like I could
Just peel the gym pants off a single mother
But this run of good luck don't got me feeling all that good

And it hurts, and it hurts
But I don't wanna talk about it
'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
Then I wake up to reality's bliss
Now all I ever wanted and all I ever needed is right here
In the stranger's kiss

[Angel Olsen:]
Don't bother flying when we jump off the cliff
Make sure it's head first if you don't want to deal with what ifs
I know you're wondering if you'll feel it again
Just keep on digging it down with your pail of tin
No shame in sleeping with the seagulls, baby
This town's a tourist trap, it's no place to be in
They made a meme out of my legacy, darling
My hands are caught in the net and they're pale and thin

And it hurts, and it hurts
Well I don't wanna talk about it
'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
And I wake up to reality's bliss
All I ever wanted and all I ever needed was right here
In the stranger's kiss

[Alex Cameron:]
Me and Roy, we got a pretty mean posse
With a Down syndrome Jew from the real estate crew
He keeps me busy with a shift now and then
But it don't ever really stop me from thinking of you
[Angel Olsen:]
I know you're wondering why you wish you were dead
And there's no solace in the fact that it's all in your head
Try not to focus on the pain that you're in
Just keep on digging down with your pail of tin

[Alex Cameron & Angel Olsen:]
If it hurts, but it hurts
But I don't wanna talk about it
'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
And I wake up to reality's bliss
All I ever wanted and all I ever needed is right here
In the stranger's kiss

'Cause in my dreams, I miss you
And I'll just stick 'em right there in the bin
Thought I needed buckets of gold
But all I needed was a dirty little pail of tin

  19. Y.... ....

    thank you youtube algorithm
    I've found my favorite song

  20. T.... B....

    The music sounds good and what a weird dance it is! HAHA 😁😁 This video clip shows how those people are lost and so confused, without Love , looking for love and falling in love with a freak, another one lost too ... no purpose of life and too privileged, no aim on knowing themselves but duplicating, plagiarizing someone else it's all the time about looking alike, looking like someone else to follow... No dreams but just goals not far from under their nose. The truth is just watching this and trying to learn and understand those people, other humans. Well, sometimes coming from different places but living in the same place now for century and very different culture, it can't ever be in fusion. it's not good, it's not bad just knowing a lot about this culture but can't ever get to understand it fully. No self love, No love but games, and running from love only to look for it like a hidden treasure, hating families and siblings, turning back on friends keep climbing up, become great and selfish " watch Me!" ... "Show it off, show what you've got" running from true life and love but only to end up alone and very proud "I still have me, I love me, love myself"

  21. Z.... Z....

    Running on Empty vibe

  22. h.... ....

    Don't bother flying when you jump off the cliff
    Make sure it's head first if you don't want to deal with what ifs
    I know you're wondering if you'll feel it again...

  23. m.... h....

    This video is the reason I'm bisexual.

  24. S.... R....

    Thats a beautiful behind :))))

  25. M.... C....

    Anybody else hear Brandon Flowers solo style ?

  26. J.... S....

    How did I go this long without knowing of this guy?

    J.... S....

    He's only really famous in Australia, pretty unheard of outside of it.

  27. M.... G....

    I always find myself coming back to this song, this video, all of it. I never get sick of it. I can play it on repeat over and over again and it feels just as wonderful each time. I honestly I just wish it was longer. I want this to be the soundtrack of my life.

  28. K.... S....

    It deserves more views. Anyway thanks algorythm

  29. A.... A....

    so far I have listened two songs and both I will remember.

  30. C.... ....

    cool song

  31. �.... �....

    Браво 👏🏼

  32. L.... E....

    Love this song. Who the fuck are the ones who disliked this song ? That's what I don't get.

  33. J.... D....

    Looks like a couple meth heads too me.

  34. L.... C....

    I LOVE IT 💖! by: Lia, from 🇧🇷

  35. p.... ....

    Alex Cameron lives the life I've never had but wished

  36. f.... ....

    thank you for Dallas, one of the best concert experiences i have the pleasure of having. Thank you.

  37. 1.... ....

    3:21 me trying to force my Alex Cameron obsession on everyone I know

  38. S.... K....

    I found this vid thanks to Luke Deacon's cover of this song and I absolutely love it!! The music video is so beautiful!!!

  39. A.... A....

    I'd watch a whole movie of this

  40. a.... ....

    this song is so fucking good.
    I hear this song from The Kooples, and I spend 5hour for searching what it's name
    finally, I made it

  41. A.... B....

    I love this song, but it's even better live. If you get the chance go see this on stage. Roy chimes in with his sax and after the show you can usually hang with the band and they are a delightful bunch. Holiday is funner than a rollercoaster Alex is cooler than Antarctica and Roy is smoother than satin.

  42. e.... m....

    ANYBODY BUMPIN IN 2019?

  43. S.... O....

    I love music <3

  44. R.... Y....

    why did they change the thumbnail

  45. R.... D....

    This video is so beautiful.I already loved the song,

  46. b.... ....

    Underrated song

  47. i.... d....

    lovely song & video

  48. J.... P....

    A lot of Bruce Springsteen influence in his music

  49. t.... A....

    Emulation is the sincerest form of flattery.

  50. E.... B....

    OMG that kiss, i need that kiss in my life

  51. Q.... T....

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA remember this?

  52. J.... R....

    Russel Crowe (!!!) played this just on BBC 6 Music. Totally impressed he was. (Top endorser! :) ) So I had to come here immediately... Alex Cameron, this is simply brillant.

  53. C.... M....

    I'm not crying. It's just been raining on my face.

  54. R.... C....

    2018..???

  55. S.... S....

    one of the best music videos that ive ever seen

  56. o.... ....

    I don't know. The actual music says "love me", but the farcical image says "leave me".


    It's hard for me to want to commit to serious enthusism for art, when the artist wants to represent himself mawkishly.

    I feel like this satirical image of dorkdom is undermining what would otherwise by all accointing be quality heartfelt music.

    It's annoying, because I like this guy's music, but his obnoxious need to constantly lampoon himself as a Napolean Dundee Dynamite, taints my associative synesthesia perception. Now, if I try to enjoy his work I have this off-putting visual of a person trying way too hard to be ironically kitsch with inceasant squinty-eyed/pursed-lipped/clinched-fist faux stoicism amid bent-knee hip-swiveling in grossly tight red-tag special jeans.

    Yep - I overthink everything. Damn.

    o.... ....

    See, this just makes everything better for me. In the age where the image can be so easily manipulated into anything, choosing to not only make a fool out of yourself, but also to salvage the suffering of meaningless and existential despair of generic "losers" and giving it meaning, no matter how absurd.

    We are oversaturated with the same templates. We need art to break out of them. This is what Alex is doing.

  57. A.... R....

    wow, I love it.

  58. S.... D....

    Sometimes dreams do come true.

  59. F.... C....

    My favourite short film Ever!!!! Like Godard...

  60. W.... ....

    love it

  61. N.... ....

    love how raw it is, theres an obvious rejection of societal norms.

    N.... ....

    i think you are heavily projecting your own political beliefs into this. its a song about loss.

  62. t.... m....

    is she from dusk till dawn

  63. A.... H....

    It's been a year 08.02.2017 - 08.02.2018 :)

  64. a.... t....

    that's Jemima Kirke? from the thumbnail she looked like Amy Jo Johnson

  65. T.... ....

    I'm pretty sure this is a fantasy of his. A female that thinks he's the coolest. She worships him and idolizes him. She's obsessed with him. She gets with him.

  66. L.... ....

    I always did think Alex was the best Olsen twin before he transitioned!

  67. T.... T....

    Tight.
    I am gonna throw down a few of those dance moves at my mates wedding

  68. T.... P....

    God I love this song god I love this music video I just love it so much :'3

  69. p.... v....

    beautiful girl <3

  70. A.... M....

    So freaking bomb! I'm obsessed!

  71. K.... ....

    Song starts at 0:23

  72. K.... N....

    Fucking stunning, on every level.

  73. E.... E....

    I'd pay good money just to eat Jemima's ass. Str8 up.

  74. M.... E....

    insan sevgisiz soluyor.çirkin.

  75. m.... p....

    They're a great couple, we get it

  76. M.... Z....

    for me she is Jessa forever <3

  77. B.... L....

    bruce springsteen vibe

  78. K.... L....

    It looks cute, but at the same time it looks like the story of a narcissist and a codependent falling for each other.

    K.... L....

    Kat List that's the Alex Cameron magic, sweet and romantic but with darker implications

  79. D.... H....

    this sounds diffrent from the studio version is it me or is it in my head lol

  80. e.... z....

    what's up with the channel name change?

  81. D.... E....

    Preface: I love Bruce. I think this sounds like it could have been a Bruce Springsteen song

  82. T.... S....

    Totally hooked on Alex Cameron.

  83. T.... S....

    there really WAS someone for her.. even for her
    .. and why not.

  84. R.... ....

    Does the chorus remind anyone of Born on a Train by Magnetic Fields? The Arcade Fire cover sounds more similar.

  85. E.... D....

    ANGEL OLSEN I LOVE U SO MUCH MA GÖRLLL ❤️❤️❤️

  86. G.... G....

    How does this not have a million views already?!?

  87. W.... a....

    The video reminds me of the song Androgynous by The Replacements. Check it out.

  88. M.... P....

    I just just have to keep watching/listening to this, I'm addicted. Jemima Kirke is far better here than in Jaggers "Gotta get a grip", for me the "Moment" is the smile as they both lean against the wall. Yep I'm obsessed, for now anyway.

  89. D.... B....

    TOP TRACKS??!?!?!?! WTF!?!?!?!??! EVERY SONG IS A HIT STOP THIS NONSENSE

  90. m.... ....

    cameron didn't mind the massive downgrade from his previous girlfriend as long as it got him more exposure. clearly.

  91. A.... s....

    Br aí?

  92. N.... L....

    the video is perfect with this song - and this song is perfect

  93. S.... W....

    I need an Alex Cameron in my life ☮️💙

  94. S.... B....

    isn't it like fandom?
