WEEK 39 - SONG 39 - ANYWAY

WEEK 39 - SONG 39 - ANYWAY - FREE DOWNLOAD @ BANDCAMP

LYRICS:

When you're young all you need

Is someone to come along 

And light a path through the trees

I recall the blackest nights

But sunny seashore days

Sand in shoes, torch in hand

CHORUS: Anyway

Home again, sun or rain

Left to fend for ourselves

In a way

Home alone, made me twice as strong 

For the world.

But when the world 

Far from here

Teaches you new codes

Teaches you to behave

All I feel is a lack of being prepared

And all the time it would save 

CHORUS: Anyway

Home again, sun or rain

Left to fend for ourselves

In a way

Home alone, made me twice as strong 

For the world.

Is it hard not to blame?

It's not a bad thing anyway

Trying instead to see the light

To get it right, brighter days

CHORUS: Anyway

Home again, sun or rain

Left to fend for ourselves

In a way

Home alone, made me twice as strong 

For the world.

WEEK 38 - SONG 38 - Employee of the Month

WEEK 38 - SONG 38 - Employee of the Month - FREE DOWNLOAD @ Bandcamp

LYRICS:

When you walk into the office

Realise you haven't pulled up

Your zip has exposed your modesty  

Must be quick to deflect the attention of your coworkers

You look around and beads of sweat are creeping out of your forehead  

Don't look down. Don't! 

Sneaked a peek now they see… 

Tried and failed to make it a dance

Employee of the month: No chance! 

Forever a fucking loser 

And now indecent exposure 

   

Bargaining 

Smile and shrug and shudder in shame

Fight or flight

Window or stairs?

Fire extinguisher, through the 5th floor window. 

So sad. 

Life is long beyond your own death 

Dry your eyes and take a deep breath

WEEK 37 - SONG 37 - Pocket Composting

WEEK 37 - SONG 37 - Pocket Composting - FREE DOWNLOAD @ Bandcamp

Pocket Composting 

I like to smell new shoes all day

I like cafe au lait and hairspray

My spandex handbag has a leopard print

And I freshen up with bags of mince

A Hamsa shawl and a rugby tackle

Temper temper metro-sexual 

Continental breakfast and cancer stick

A real man knows how to suck … 

I close my eyes and pretend it's my wife

This tragic drama, this double life 

Oh my love you wouldn't understand

The virtues of man

I close my eyes and pretend it's my wife

This tragic drama, this double life 

I am a very petty man

I am a very petty man…

WEEK 35 - SONG 35 - The Doors of the Cliffs

WEEK 35 - SONG 35 - The Doors of the Cliffs - FREE DOWNLOAD @ BANDCAMP

LYRICS:

Come wild heresay

I'm a loner

Fold it up, fold away

When I'm older

If you could free their petty eyes

I don't know if I would 

I don't know if I could say "hey!"

Into the blue mould of the cold rain

I don't know what I mean

I don't know what I said before

And all that salt in the semen

It came from soy sauce

Please get me a glass of water

Amoured tanks roll into bedlam

I guess it saves them

I have a gun 

Pitfalls absorb the Earth for a while

For a while

Abyss turns inside out for a while
