Official video for ‘Rodeo’ by The Impersonators.
Having previously been signed to Sony/BMG with Carmen Gray, one of Finland’s finest rock bands, Tom Tikka formed The Impersonators in 2013, a two-man project born out of their ashes and designed to cut out the politics and strife that come from the rock ‘n’ roll carnival of band life. Comprising of Tom Tikka and lyricist Antti Autio, The Impersonators were a duo that masqueraded as a full band and did everything it could to defy convention, and nowhere was this more apparent than in their songs, which homed in on the warts-and-all gnarliness of love and real life.

Lyrics:
It’s true like a fool
I put my trust and faith in you
You were my first rodeo
Hey girl, I’m looking for a shelter
From your acid rain
This fever makes me a flaming house of pain
City lights were swerving stars around you
Neon arrows flew
And I forgot about my lonely avenues
Now I’m all black and blue
It’s true like a fool
I put my trust and faith in you
You were my first rodeo
So cruel I got schooled
A woman’s heart can be untrue
I’m cursed with your rodeo
Simple joys were difficult illusions
Always on the mend
You’re the storm, babe and you’re the hurricane
Sweet thorns of acrimony
Growing through my skin
Andromeda, the galaxy of sin
I’ve done all I can do
It’s true like a fool
I put my trust and faith in you
You were my first rodeo
So cruel I got schooled
A woman’s heart can be untrue
I’m cursed with your rodeo
You really took me for a ride
Sweet words and you were out of sight
It’s true like a fool
I put my trust and faith in you
You were my first rodeo
So cruel I got schooled
A woman’s heart can be untrue
I’m cursed with your rodeo
