🌺 🌼 “Hey Veronica” 🌺 🌼
by Danny Michel
A fun, sunny little banger built for windows down, volume up, and pretending you’re in a music video.
“Hey Veronica” lands on Bandcamp June 19, 2026, and on all streaming services June 26, 2026. But you can hear it first right here today — Thursday, June 18.
After that, a limited-edition translucent red 7-inch 45 RPM vinyl will follow, featuring “Hey Veronica” on one side and “Northern Star” on the other.

Lyrics:
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
Where’d you go, did your feet get cold?
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
If I said yes, would you say no?
Five o'clock at the Motel Six
I pick her up when she's off her shift
She's been cleaning rooms and washing sheets all day
Now she just wants to wash that smell of work away
She changed out of her uniform in the front seat of my car
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
Where’d you go, did your feet get cold?
Summer nights and the kicks we had
I'd meet her down at the Jimmy Jazz
Take one down and pass it around
99 bottles of beer on the ground
We stayed until the sunset rose
and we slept until the afternoon
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
Where’d you go, did your feet get cold?
Hey Ronnie, I'm a mess
When I saw you coming in that summer dress
I smelled smoke and I saw flames
She bit my lip and she burnt my brains
She sang up a karaoke song I said "hey, you wanna be my bride?"
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
Where'd you go, did your feet get cold?
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
I'm on one knee please don't say no
The spin cycle at the Motel Six
Threw in the towel and she called it quits
I was her lover, but for a summer
Or just another, some summer kicks
I don't wanna live this fast
but I don't want to die this slow
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
Where'd you go, did your feet get cold?
Hey Veronica, where'd you go?
If I said yes, would you say no?
I'm on one knee please don't say no
If I said yes, would you say no?
