A thoughtful lyricist taking his poetic inspiration, songcraft ideas, and even a few fashion cues from Bob Dylan, Ezra Furman sings in a nasally style similar to the Violent Femmes' Gordon Gano while making unpretentious indie folk/indie pop that's raw, deep, and achingly sentimental. As students of Tufts University, guitarist Jahn Soon, bassist Job Mukkada, and drummer Jordan Kozer formed the Harpoons as Furman's backing band in 2006 and self-recorded Beat, Beat, Beat in their dorm rooms with the help of engineer Dave Kant of Outtake Records.

A You know I love you so bad E I don't believe in love DA You know I love you so bad so bad
EA You know I love you so bad E Like the kid in the back of the classroom D Who can't do the math 'cause he can't see the A blackboard so bad
EA You know I love you so bad E Like the kids skipping class in the bathrooms D sneaking cigarettes underneath the football A bleachers baby so bad
EA You know I love you so bad E Like the kids growing up to be crim'nals D tearing pages out the back of the hymnals for A love notes baby so bad
EA Still remember so bad E The nights mom got drunker than dad did D She told me never hang out with the bad kids well A what can you say to that
EA I always knew I was bad E Always dreamin' so they called me the Spaceman D You first kissed me in your parent's blue basement A Wanted you baby so bad
EA Sometimes we got out of hand E We bought drugs from a parking attendant D But sober nights in your car were transcendent A I loved you baby so bad
EA You know I loved you so bad E Somehow you got yourself accepted to college D You said there had to be a way out of all this A garbage small-town rat trap
EA You moved away that was that E You still send me the occasional email D I got a dumb job working in retail A I missed you baby so so bad
EA I drew your name in the sand E Came to the beach 'cause we used to go here D I watched the blue wave cover it over A Do what the ocean does best
EA I know the past is the past E Then again the present's nothing without it D I feel fine don't even feel sad about it AE I just love you baby so so bad
A Wah wah wah wa-wa-wa-wah wah E Wah wah wah wa-wa-wa-wah wah D Wah wah wah wa-wa-wa-wah wah A Wah so bad so bad
