how does one unsee things they wish they hadn’t seen? what spell casts you blind or puts you in a dream? and how does one believe in things that don’t appear in light? i bet someone could tell you for a price (or stay awake at night) you are presenting overly patient (and come too far to be a bitter man) stuck with an old alliance, like no one’s found a better science maybe the best thing’s a little peace and quiet (oh you’ll know when you try it) right now i’m not hypnotized by it you can get away with a little bit of this and a little bit of this and a lot of that you can get away with a little bit of life and a lotta wrong if you do a little right you can get away with a little bit of this take a little risk have a bit of that you can get away with a little bit of life and a lotta wrong if you do a little right are you like that every night? (not quite) cuz you embarrass yourself (yeah) you gotta take better care of yourself (i know) and i ain’t going to talk (thanks) but i’m not looking for a big baby who’s still teaching himself how to walk and harsh though this seems (nah trust me, i get it) man, your whole peter pan thing is dead to me everybody’s gotta grow up eventually i hear you and it’s gonna happen for me can you gimme a tip? i’m working on my mental fitness can you gimme a tip? get outta my city with that business can you gimme a tip? i’m working on my physical fitness can you gimme a tip? i’m working in my own best interest big push

about

"Boring Magic, Good Sport’s long-awaited debut album, is a simultaneously sobering and tongue-in-cheek reckoning with age and existentialism. Hizer's lyrics are deeply relatable and his compositions are as danceable as they are suited for solitary pondering."
-Eli Enis

'A proud, unique, and deeply satisfying exploration of modernity, discomfort, and the barren edifice of self-congratulation: eventually, being honest with yourself is the only remaining option. Good Sport makes a compelling case for letting middle age unfold with eyes wide open."
-Chillfiltr
