You only really notice When you focus Called her a genius Was a stroke of But a lot behind the brains We never spoke of Enough about the beauty  What she hoped of Elvis dip to the lips That smoke sloped off All these pictures At her weakest We take note of But what she [...]

The only time it’s acceptable to talk to a stranger With a bag of shit in your hand Is when you’re walking the dogs I’ll bring some little pink bows next time I know that frenchie's name  Like he’s family But I ain’t got a scooby To his minders I swear these ponds play hide [...]

You’re always gonna be looking for answers If you’re riddled with questions You’re always gonna be searching for trouble If you’re surrounded by yes men  You’re always gonna be needing assurance If your self esteem is less than  You’re always gonna be watching the ding If you don’t think before you press send You’re always [...]

I know every cynic in love Thinks I’m foolish and young And young and foolish But I don’t need any convincing To do this It’s useless Trying to get me to stop  Just fruitless Cos even if I’m clueless I’m going bollox deep And enjoying myself Cos this has been years Of a trying hell [...]

I don’t - I don’t find it easy without you Actually I find it excruciating I sit umming and ahhing  And ruminating But the sun comes up, you’re still gone And it’s devastating I thought you only dance for me But tonight your feet are levitating Clipping and clopping and clapping For others without hesitating [...]

Sorry for my absence I had a lot of shit going on Everything right, left And all good turned wrong I didn’t know where I was heading Forgot where I come from But now the slump is straightening I’m feeling the month’s weak gone strong I ain’t ever saw the future like this But I [...]

I dunno why I’m looking into the lights As if they’ve never made me dizzy But I got this beating screaming fight Inside my belly gone all fizzy It’s easier to avoid the draw When it’s daylight and I’m busy Even in the arse end of nowhere The traffic in my heart is centre of [...]
