Looks like Father John Misty’s all warmed up to the whole songwriting thing now that his work on Beyonce’s “Hold Up” is published.
His latest work is a bit of a different pace, this time writing lyrics to the theme of the Netflix’s flagship series House of Cards. Last night (May 11th) Josh Tillman tweeted a series of lyrics to Jeff Beal’s “House of Cards (Main Title Theme)”. We’re not sure how “official” the lyrics actually are, but they’re certainly dark enough to match the show’s bleakness.

This hand I've been dealt
From beneath the deck
Is it the ace or jack
It's the dealers bet— FARMER JAH MISERY (@fatherjohnmisty) May 11, 2016
Under the wood
Lies a sinking sand
A whiskey injection
The blogs are closing in— FARMER JAH MISERY (@fatherjohnmisty) May 11, 2016
Let's make love to my bodyguard
Inside the House of Cards
