Aftershade

When the clouds have gone and the aftershade has left
We can call our home, every family has a way
Of wanting, knowing a new
Overleaf caught in view
Night to night, they are calling for you
Shore to sea, you can help us breathe
Don’t darling, how can you bow down and apologise?
Don’t darling, don’t darling
Fever tides will rise
When the clouds are gone and the aftershade has left
We can pack our bags, drops the flags at half mast
Anyone can’t go through
Better hope that you are in the few
Night to night, they are calling for you
Shore to sea, you can help us breathe
Don’t darling, how can you bow down and apologise?
Don’t darling, don’t darling
Fever tides will rise
Are you game?

All I Want

Step 1: I meet you
Step 2: our love is cued
You’ve got a plan to ask me for my hand within a week
Step 3: will you marry me?
Step 4: it’s kids, we’ll have 3
No one can touch our happy ever after
It’s all I want...ooo
It’s all I want...ooo
It’s not that hard...ooo
It’s all I want...easy as that
Step 5: you cure my depression
You have really made an impression
A house in Stockholm and two in Sydney and London
Step 6: I cure your OCD
Every night I make us honey tea
And when we get bored we take a trip to New York
It’s all I want...ooo
It’s all I want...ooo
It’s not that hard...ooo
It’s all I want...easy as that
I will win the lottery
I will spoil you with jewellery
We would spend time everyday
If I could just have my way
It’s all I want...ooo
It’s all I want...ooo
It’s not that hard...ooo
It’s all I want...easy as that

Sunset Song
02:35

Sunshine, sunset, I am blue
Only 18, I keep distant from you
Moonbeam, starlight, I’m disgustingly shy
Now I’m 19, but my humour is just as dry
I could make up thousands of cells
But I am nothing special
My indifferent attitude has got you under my spell
Even though I’m far from my potential
Sunshine, sunset, racing light
He’s a runner, I could tell but I’m too polite
I could make up thousands of cells
But I am nothing special
My indifferent attitude has got you under my spell
Even though I’m far from my potential
A half of one is still a half
But a half of two is one
If I could choose who falls in love with me
Well I would surely choose the sun

Sitting at a desk, what a little mess
Do your work now, now or never
I was a leader, then I was a seeder
But I do what I want now, now or never
No you don’t, no you don’t
No you don’t, no you don’t
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
I don’t know
I got all my papers, unlike you fakers
File them off now, now or never
Shut up. Don’t tell me what to do
It’s time for me to stand up against you
No you don’t, no you don’t
No you don’t, no you don’t
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
You know
Supereffective, SU-PAH-UH effective
SU-PAH-UH effective
No you don’t, no you don’t
No you don’t, no you don’t
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
Don’t you know, you know, don’t you?
No

The New You
02:02
|

Forget you, what you had was amaze
What to do, when it doesn’t phase
Swallow all the words that you etched in sand
Wash them down
You don’t realise how lucky you were
You don’t realise how lucky you were
It’s nice to meet the new you
How do you do?
Tired nerd, your transformation offends reason
Even your favourite birds are unchanged through the seasons
You always lacked consistency, so forgetful
I don’t miss you at all
You don’t realise how lucky you were
You don’t realise how lucky you were
It’s nice to meet the new you
How do you do?
Sir
Go
Away
You always lacked consistency, so forgetful
I don’t miss you at all
You don’t realise how lucky you were
You don’t realise how lucky you were
It’s nice to meet the new you
How do you do?
Sir
Go
Away

Holding Hands
02:35
|

I wish I could show you
But I’m not much of a show-er
You ask how much do you love me
But I can’t give an answer
I’m not entirely sure
I’m lost in your gaze
My love, my life, it revolves around you
You show me a montage of images
Monochrome, sepia, multicoloured pages
Stow it away for a rainy day
In a broken hotel on a fugitive day
My love, my life, it revolves around you
You’re dwarfed by your own heart
The reading’s crazy, off the charts
I’m all yours to kiss at night
Yours to cherish and hold tight
And when you dream I’ll be there, holding your hand
Just close your eyes and don’t wake up
My love, my life, it revolves around you

You Tell, I'll Listen
02:42

If you have a problem, send me on the way
I’ll stick it to them and save the day
If you have an issue and don’t know what to do
No need for a tissue, just say who
Tell, tell, tell me darling
Tell, tell, tell me darling
Tell, tell, tell me darling
Tell, tell, tell me darling
Not blue skies, can’t get out of bed
Another hour dies, rest my sleepy head
Not a worry, I’ll try my best to listen
They’ll say sorry, don’t know what they’re missing
Tell, tell, tell me darling
Tell, tell, tell me darling
Tell, tell, tell me darling
Tell, tell, tell me darling
