Little Frog is the first single from Sui Zhen's forthcoming debut album Two Seas. Taking a sideways look at her folk and country influences, Little Frog demonstrates an eclectic and mature approach to songwriting and arrangement. She draws influence from modern performers (Joanna Newsom, PJ Harvey and Karen O) as well as her broad record collection (Karen Dalton, Arthur Russell, Lou Reed)

lyrics

LITTLE FROG

Saturday, Saturday
Saturday left me
With Sunday a note
Dawn in the park
Dampens my clothes

How did I? How did I?
Spend so long away from home
So long away from home

Dawn to day
And day to night
I can cook three meals
With not even a fight

Maybe my, maybe my
Maybe my sister
Will be awake still (are you awake still?)
Cycle to her house
And knock on her sill

There she sits, there she sits
A bright spot of light, drawing in the night
She needs seven hundred but she only has fifty
Pick up a pen and get to work quickly

Little frog, little frog
Frog will you listen
And tell me if I’m wrong
I want all your enemies
To know what they’ve done
