I FOUND IT

I finally found the song I was looking for: it was “Lolita” by Moneyshot off the album Bliss.

Which I CANNOT FIND ANYWHERE ONLINE. Spotify doesn’t have it, iTunes Music doesn’t have it, Musicbrainz doesn’t have it, even Discogs doesn’t have it. CDDB probably has it (given that I’m sure someone submitted it when they ripped the CD back in the day) but they don’t make it easy to search. And FreeDB doesn’t.

But anyway, mystery solved.

And here’s the lyrics that my script extracts for it (which are… pretty accurate, at least, and closer than what I’d remembered):

Back in the days you made our clothes
And we lived in a tin can
Unrenovated
Ah
Saturday night
You paint your toes
And we'd make love by the sound
Of the elevated
Ah
Lover, look up
Wherever you are
Lover, look up
I named you a star
Lolita
Lolita
You left the world in better shape than when you found it
Than when you found it
Ah
I tattooed your monogram out of sight
And even now I know
I'll never remove it
Ah
Grand Central Station
Late one night
We did it in a photo booth
I've got the pictures to prove it
Ah
Lover, look up
Wherever you are
Lover, look up
A name to a star
Lolita
Lolita
Lolita
Lolita
Lolita
Lolita
Lös
Lolita
Oh
Oh
Ralph

When you found me, Lolita, now
When you found me, Lolita, now
Lolita Lolita Oliver
Yeah!
Yeah!

so the lyric search engine would have probably found it, but only just barely.

Anyway, as usual, human brain beats AI.
