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.

[Verses] A You know I love you so bad E7 I don't believe in love DA You know I love you so bad, so bad
EA You know I love you so bad E7 Like the kid in the back of the classroom DA Who can't do the math cos he can't see the blackboard, so bad
EA You know I love you so bad E7 Like the kid skipping class in the bathrooms DA Sneaking cigarettes underneath the football bleachers baby, so bad
EA You know I love you so bad E7 Like the kids growing up to be criminals DA Tearing pages out the back of the hymnals. Love notes baby, so bad.
EA Still remember so bad E7 The nights mom got drunker than dad did DA She told me, "never hang out with the bad kids". What can you say to that?
EA I always knew I was bad. E7 Always dreaming so they called me the Spaceman DA You first kissed me in your parent's blue basement. I wanted you, baby, so bad.
EA Sometimes we got out of hand E7 We bought drugs from a parking attendant DA Sober nights in your car were transcendent. I loved you baby so bad.
EA You know I loved you so bad E7 Somehow you got yourself accepted to college DA You said there had to be a way out of all this. Garbage small town rat trap
EA You moved away that was that E7 You still send me the occasional email DAE I got a dumb job working in retail. I miss you baby so bad, so bad.
[Break] A
[Verses] A I drew your name in the sand E7 I came to the beach cos we used to go here DA I watched the blue wave cover it over, and do what the ocean does best.
EA I know the past is the past E7 Then again, the present's nothing without it D I feel fine, don't even feel sad about it AE7 I just love you baby so, so bad
