A sexy, smooth second track, Annie Clark called “Down and Out Downtown” her favorite song off of Daddy’s Home. Stacking off of the theme introduced from “Pay Your Way in Pain”, the song follows the soupy, heavy, hungover morning after a disastrous night out in the big city.
Down and Out Downtown Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Last night's heels
On the mornin' train
It's a long way back downtown
Ten missed calls
They don't know where you are
It's a long way back downtown
[Chorus]
Hey, I was flyin' (Flyin', flyin', flyin')
Over the Empire State (Over, away)
Then you kissed me (Kissed me, kissed me)
And I crashed again
[Verse 2]
When'd it start?
This feeling so wrong
When you're down and out downtown
[Bridge]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Bowery John
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Forgotten, but not gone
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Prayin' at St. Ann's
Bodega roses in my hands
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Down and out downtown
And the joker with that funny laugh
Is diggin' through the basement of my past
It's a long way back down
Down and out downtown
[Chorus]
Hey, I was flyin' (Flyin', flyin', flyin')
Over the Empire State (Over, away)
Then you kissed me (Kissed me, kissed me, kissed me)
And I crashed again
Ooh-ooh-ooh

What did St. Vincent say about "Down and Out Downtown"?
This is actually maybe my favourite song on the record. I don’t know how other people will feel about it. We’ve all been that person who is wearing last night’s heels at eight in the morning on the train, processing: ‘Oh, where have we been? What did I just do?’ You’re groggy, you’re sort of trying...
