I was unconditional back then You would’ve loved me I’d have been fine being treated like shit Ignored and pining And just so up for it When I was little I didn’t know love Only what I thought could be cool Fucking hell I was barely out of school Punted round Sloshing drinks I’d downed [...]

When Toast Met Crust
Oh, to be young and slutty again Then I’d not feel cold like this But one quid just to hang my coat Did kind of take the piss Especially when I had scarf and cardi Gloves and snood and muffs That didn’t half put me out of pocket Especially after blowing dough on the good [...]
Summer Of Love
I wasn’t in it for the music I was in it for the drugs Wanted to follow My old man’s footsteps And recreate The summer of love Wanted to taste that bitter sizzle Of the pills underneath my tongue And feel that unreal electricity In a stranger’s hug Needed to get more than just acquainted [...]
Eve
The world keeps spinning And you’re stood still Everyone’s gone into remission And you’re just getting ill Keep the past in jars On the windowsill Just staring and glaring Around and distilled A thousand bad habits You’re trying to kill A thousand coping methods That just make you feel Your birthday tomorrow Spent the eve [...]
A Natural Progression
He’s the type to throw beige paint On a parrot Sees gold until he has it Bold grows old Then he’s bolting like the rabbit And nowadays she’s old pick About as special As pearls in front of pigs She’s just the butt of his sex jokes That get the boys rolling Hooting with the [...]

Band Together
It mattered more back then And I give it some welly, I did Writing odes and playing shows But it went by so quick We’d get dolled up to collect chips Cook carbonara and gossip Piss off neighbours at sun’s tip Polish arse to a guitar’s rip Pose pretty and pose fast Chose city and [...]
Good Consequence
I’ll chance it until I’m caught I just hope it’s with good consequence I wanted to be wanted And you wanted to want me But was that better off as friends? I’d never felt so electric As this’s start And never so earthed As at its end Started stitching nasty patterns And let them become [...]
Peddle Both Or Fall
I just keep giving; and I’m giving out of love But how can you ever know if you’re giving enough? Who knows, I’m just giving out the love Maybe that’s the problem, no tariff on the stuff I didn’t expect exchange, was happy just on love Adored every hard edge clashing with the inner fluff [...]
