Another Day
03:03
|
|||
|
I didn’t know that
That you were flighting
Something under your skin
Looking for love
In all the wrong places
Hoping to feel something good
Making new friends is hard
And new love, it takes time
It’s like fishing in a drought
Now I'm dancing alone
Like another day
Like yesterday, I'll be okay
Finding it hard to let you go
I've been spending too much time on my phone
Trying to fill a hole
And I know better than staying underground
But I'll come around
I'll come around
Your picture frame is still down the hall
Maybe I should take it down
Maybe I should take it down
And move on?
Like another day
Like yesterday, I'll be okay
Like another day
Like yesterday, I'll be okay

Watered A Fern

Watered a fern
And it died again
It was up again at 3am
Sometimes it feels like I'm moving too slow
When everyone around me is getting shit done
If money means success or time well spent
To eat from the hand that feeds or to find my own food
It's about success
It's about success
It's about success
It's about success
Is it pride or is it joy
Is it pride or is it joy
Are you trapped
Are you trapped
Are you trapped
Are you trapped
About the idea of success
Getting trapped in a game on chess on the beach
With a stranger, I didn’t want to meet
Anxiety levels are through the roof
I've had too much coffee before lunch
Now I'm stuck here in a conversation about petrol prices in town
Chomping numbers
Haven't go much done today
Spontaneity is nice until I get stuck in my own head
It's about success
It's about success
It's about the sex
It's about success
Is it pride or is it joy
Is it pride or is it joy
Are you trapped
Are you trapped
Are you trapped
Are you trapped
About the idea of success
It's about success
It's about the sex
And I’ll still do the same things tomorrow

Fall On Me
04:12
|
|||
|
We stayed up all night to watch the sun to rise
My mind has been playing tricks on me like I’m wasting time
To the things that we can’t change and to the things that we can
Can you still see my worst and love all that I am?
Fall on me
Fall on me
And I know that we try to make plans but we don’t stick to them do we?
And it feels like we’re always healing and we’re on the mend
But if you’re afraid to feel then you’re a human
Fall on me
Fall on me
Fall on me
Here we are the last ones standing
Our hips are swaying into the night
And I know that we both feel like we’re holding on
If you’re a human body in a human life
Woaaaa woaaaa
Woaaaa woaaaa
Fall on me
And I see you walking the streets alone
You know you don’t have to do that anymore
We’re humankind, we don’t like being alone
Fall on me

Oh Suzie
04:24
|

|
Old man sitting in the courtyard playing his banjo
It reminded me of the feeling of getting old
Do you want to sit and get old?
Just forget about it all
Ohhh, we can go anywhere
Ohhh Suzie
Ohhh Suzie, we can go anywhere
Memories can’t be bought
Oh Suzie, you spent all my money
When I called you honey
Oh and sometimes I want to get rid of all my stuff
And move somewhere new
And forget about this crazy world
Surrounding you
Ohhh, we can go anywhere
Ohhh Suzie we can go anywhere
Ohh oh Suzie
Ohhh Suzie, we can go anywhere
Ohhh oh Suzie
Oh Suzie, we can go anywhere
Ohhh oh Suzie
Oh Suzie, we can go anywhere

Tell Me I'm Your Girl

You caught my eye
I was waiting for you
Set up a picnic for just us two
Cut fresh roses from the neighbours garden
Cheap wine will have to do while I’m working at
woolies
Take me over to your mums house
Tell me, Im your girl
Fly me to france for hot summer euro romance
We don’t have to
We don’t have to sleep at all
You’re so chivalrous
You’re so chivalrous
You open my door
Tell me, I’m the light of your life
Tell me, Im your girl
Maybe ill let you into my under garments
Maybe ill get a tattoo of you on my arm
Tell everyone, youre my LUVR
If you tell me, that I’m special
Tell me, Im your girl
Tell me, Im your girl

I was standing around
Thinking my legs
Thinking my legs were too round
But you weren’t even looking there
Ive been spending too much time on my phone
Simply comparing myself to babes
I was looking back at photographs
When I was 18 now I feel like an old hag
I just wanted to feel young
I just wanted to feel young
So I had a white pill
Last Saturday and now I feel depressed
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
How will I let anyone in
Ive seen all the shadows under my skin
And I don’t think about the next cigarettes I have
Paint my eyes pink
Paint my eyes pink
Because I spend so much time in my own head
Its like am amputated leg
I had to get you surgically removed
But I hate white rooms and doctors
And they tell me the valves to my heart
Are all dried up and ill never love again
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
Things, they look different now
They look different now
They look different now
They look different now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now

Bathrooms

People’s bathrooms on display
People’s bathrooms on display
People’s couches on display
They just want to sit and watch TV all day
If I ask you to touch me in some place special
Would it make you feel
Would it make you feel naughty?
Touch don’t talk
Touch don’t talk
Touch don’t talk
Touch
Show me how you love, love
Show me how you love, love
I take you to the dance floor
And I ask you politely
Can you touch
Can you touch my leg
Blow up pool
No clothes on and I think of you
Can you touch
Can you touch my baguette
People’s bathrooms on display
People’s couches on display
Touch don’t talk
Touch don’t talk
Touch don’t talk
Touch
Show me how you love, love
Show me how you love, love
Show me how you love, love
Show me how you love, love
Show me how you love, love
Show me how you love, love, love, love, love, love

My Body's My Body
04:49
|

Look at me, what do you see?
An equal party
I turned the other cheek to see
The better side of you
Growing up was hard enough
With my body, changing every month
No you can't touch me because you’re horny
It doesn’t apply, when it's not your body
Do I have to get used to them
Glaring at my chest
Before breakfast?
Didn’t having sisters teach you about respect?
My body, is my body
It's better being quiet
My body, is my body
And I’m done, being quiet
I love you, but it's time
To step up
To raise our sons
To treat their ladies like queens
And I’m sorry if I've come across too firmly
It's already been a thousand years
I'm tired of hearing the words
That “boys will be boys”
Do I have to get used to them
Glaring at my chest
Before breakfast?
Didn’t having sisters teach you about respect? (Oooooooo)
My body, is my body
It's better being quiet
My body, is my body
And I’m done, being quiet
My body’s, my body
My body’s, my body
My body’s, my body
My body’s, my body
My body’s, my body
My body’s, my body
My body’s, my body
My body’s, my body

Feel Alive
04:22

Don't you say that you’re not really wondering
What you’re doing with your life
You said you were searching for something else on the outside
Yeah you took a couple of corners
You got a little older and you still find yourself with holes in your pockets
So you’ve spent so much time dreaming of this life without a dime in your eye
You took your chances
You learnt all the dances
Outside the kitchen
And outside the white walls
While we’re young
We have to live it well
To see what
What we can become
While we’re young
We have to live it well
To see what
What we can become
And how do you want to live your days?
What would your older self, older self say?
Oh to, feel alive
Feel alive
Oh, feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive
Oh to, feel alive
Feel alive
Oh, feel alive
Feel alive
Feel alive

Where Are You Going?
04:03
|

As I get older
My body becomes more shallow
Can you handle it, when it's time to stand up?
I wish I spent those years, holding you closer
We spend all our time, thinking about where we’re going
Forgetting about this moment
And where are you going?
Look at my lips
Holding on to something that’s already gone
Can you show up, when it's time to hold someone?
And we’re all rotating on this mechanical line
You’re not too old to kiss your papa on the cheek good night
And where are you going?
And I guess we have to learn to relearn
What it feels like
And where are you going?
As I get older
My body becomes more shallow
Can you handle it, when it's time to stand up?

Rest, Baby Rest
03:42
|

I've been staring at the ceiling
Staring at the ground
Not sure if its up or down
If it's night or day
Or if I'm dreaming
If you fell away when I was sleeping
Did you get up when I was dreaming?
Too feel good again
Love sick like a wet carpet on the line
It hurts me
That I have to say goodbye
Rest baby
Rest your head
Rest baby
Rest your head
Can’t tell if my hearts beating
Or if I'm dead
Will I wake up on a Saturday
Hoping to meet my friends at the beach
Too feel good again
Like spilt milk on the floor
Now you’re walking out the door
If it’s autumn or spring
What do you mean to me?
That you slipped away when I was sleeping
On my 26th birthday
You told me that you were leaving
Rest baby
Rest your head
Rest baby
Rest your head
Rest baby
Rest your head
Rest baby
Rest your head
To feel good again

Sweet, retro rock. Encapsulates the 60s sound perfectly. Festive, chill; acid dancer. Fun to listen to, great to vibe off of, move your body to, or just relax with. Every song on this album is a hit. Dancing album for sure... I saw them live, same kind of fun!
