    2012 brought the highly anticipated release of “The 2¢ Show,” Steam Powered Giraffe's second studio album. The 2¢ Show gives listeners a one-way ticket with the robots on-the-road through an antique America that is filled with both magic and mystery. Join Rabbit, The Spine, and The Jon as they travel to romanticized echoes of various eras. Eras such as the wild and weird west, where Jackalopes yodeled alongside singing cowboys and Giant Rattlesnakes were king. Aboard an enchanted steamboat, they head deep into a mystical south, finding Bog Spirits who boogie to twisted Zydeco tunes. From a decaying past, dieselpunk fables and crooning records melt with electric folk pop and psychedelic radiation to create the unique, yet timeless sound Steam Powered Giraffe makes.

lyrics

Some girls say all they need is dreaming
But some girls say they ain't got time
But for those who dream
Well they just keep dreaming
We've got to chase the dream to be happy

Do you wanna sail into the sky?
Soar across the stars?

Well, I knew a girl, and her name was Lily
But her Daddy called her something rather silly
He called her by a name which matched her art
Come on and fly with me, fly with me,
my little Airheart
