“Bedrock is supposedly just a couple blocks from the street that provides Bridgers with one of her song titles, “Scott Street.” It’s a quaint residential stretch that the song’s subject, Marshall, travelled to make a daily pilgrimage to buy cigarettes. But when we leave Bedrock to look for it, it’s nowhere to be found. “I’m directionally challenged,” she confesses before realizing that the street is actually called “Scott Avenue,” which explains why GPS isn’t able to help us. When we finally find it and get out to walk through the quiet row of homes, purple jacarandas flowers stick to our shoes. “I guess ‘Scott Street’ is about being really lonely,” she reflects. “Sometimes I want to cop out and say it’s about a lot of different things, but really it’s all there. It’s just a diary.”“ - bandcamp daily, September 25 2017

[Verse 1]
Walking Scott Street, feeling like a stranger
With an open heart, open container
I’ve got a stack of mail and a tall can
It’s a shower beer it’s a payment plan
[Verse 2]
There’s helicopters over my head
Every night when I go to bed
Spending money and I earned it
When I’m lonely, that’s when I’ll burn it
[Chorus]
Do you feel ashamed
When you hear my name
[Verse 3]
I asked you, “How is your sister?
I heard she got her degree“
And I said, “That makes me feel old“
He said, “What does that make me?“
[Verse 4]
I asked you, “How is playing drums?“
You said, “It’s too much shit to carry“
“And what about the band?“
You said, “They’re all getting married“
[Chorus]
Do you feel ashamed
When you hear my name
[Outro]
Anyway, don’t be a stranger
Anyway, don’t be a stranger
Don’t be a stranger
