Wriggle

I’m reliant on that love scent
I need it in abundance
I was feeling lucky
And you were feeling hopeful
Feel a little wriggle
Baby let me mingle
Hi my love
I don’t want the talking
Don’t you feel dangerous
Like me?
Give me something
Something better
Will you let me do
I just want you to know
When you’re always hiding in my high school
I don’t wanna see you doing Betty Boop
Take me take me fly home I am a woman gone
I don’t wanna stay here
Sinking in my daybed
Harder only never
Take it when you got it
I don’t think you caught my heart
You don’t labour like me
I don’t wanna stay here
Sinking in my daybed
Harder only never
Take it when you got it

El dorado do el dorado don't
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Paintings on the wall meanings that they won’t
Ever get, ever get
And I’m watching all evening
Through the gap in your teeth
While you play your songs
I’ll be right here for ya
At the Golden Dawn you’re singing Madonna
Like a prayer
When you leave I’ll go with you
All our friends will come too
When I hear your voice whisper
All my dreams will come true
All the glasses full of life
Every night is long and overripe
I need to get out of here
But I can’t leave I need to be near you
In a tiny kitchenette
With a guilty cigarette
And I’m crying and I’m wired
And it’s like you’ve always known me
Seen it all before you opened up your tired eyes
Staring at the soft-lit off-white tall column
You’re perfectly right it’s more than I can swallow
There will be no more broken promises
And no more miseducation
Coz it’s all for for what for what all for what
I give up when you ask me to
When you look right through me
When you dance
I am so full up
I choose to love you for
Almost all of the time
In a tiny kitchenette
With a guilty cigarette
And I’m crying and I’m wired
And it’s like you’ve always known me
Seen it all before you opened up your tired eyes
Helpless helpless helpless helpless
Cos you shouldn’t have run to, but you wanted to, and so did I

Think About You
04:15
|

|
Only ever think about you
I don’t think I have your problem
I don’t act the way you do
But I miss you every day
Even when I’m with you
Only ever think about you
You don’t admit to being wrong
I don’t even try to call back
After this cyclone has blown through
I was right all along
Only ever think about you
With us it’s like a see-saw coz
Whenever I’m up you’re down
Stonewall them if they call you out
Instead of something wrong with her
There might be something wrong with you
But you’re alone now
And baby I’m alone too
That’s why I only ever think about, only ever think about you

I Can't Sleep

Do you sleep alright
By the moon
In his half-light shadow
Dream about
The desert road
The mountains lively
They dance above you
Round my head
Hard to see
Halo as they fly away
Rising up
Like a wreath
With a purple shadow
I can't sleep
Never sleep
Pomegranate
Tangerine
All of these, no, wait, some of these
All the time I've known you
And the city night-lights like diamonds
I don't even want to know the way home
I'll just drive around ‘til my friends come
Dine all alone on profiteroles
I can't sleep
Never sleep
All I wanna be, that's all I wanna be, all the time asleep
What a way that you pull me back

Hi, there’s something up
It seems our timing’s off
One-on-one
And we got lost together
In the days of fun whatever
Pour wine into my paper cup
And watch me come undone
And pass by everyone
Colourful light
Flawless skin, collagen, spiritual guidance
'93, 2010, money can’t buy this
Now we see that our whole life has gone by us
I can’t wait any more
You are a silicon valley
Of your own
And I found out more than you'll ever know
And I cried and cried on the telephone
But I love you more
And I love you more and more
It’s not about the things I want
But what’s yet to come
So let it run
Flawless skin, collagen, spiritual guidance
'93, 2010, money can’t buy this
Now we see that our whole life has gone by us
I can’t wait any more
We’ll outgrow our own
Lonely undertone
And I don’t mind at all
Oh my god
Flawless skin, collagen, spiritual guidance
'93, 2010, money can’t buy this
Now we see that our whole life has gone by us
I can’t wait any more

All the fear on all the faces
All the time there's nothing wrong
You and I both know I'll be here forever
Makes no difference where I was before
I want you in the morning after
I want what we had before
I want you to live forever
You're the one that I adore
I want you to live forever
Never let you go
Feels so good to remember
Choose the same I chose before
Take it to the bleeding edges
Open up the cutting floor
I want you in the morning after
I want what we had before
I want you to live forever
You're the one that I adore
I want you to live forever
Never let you go
Windswept curls in your eyes
Your frozen hand in mine
Stumbling by Winooski’s side
River swollen wide
I want you in the morning after
I want what we had before
I want you to live forever
You're the one that I adore
I want you to live forever

Guadalupe

Float ‘til May, what have I got to lose
Guadalupe, bob around with you
Took the wrong fork back a mile or two
The further we walk the closer I get to you
Black rubber over silver falls, pink sunburnt thighs
Just move around all the forest walls, the cooler has its own tyre
Sunset walk, the oyster bar
The crab shack full of old shells
The waiters offering
What do I have to lose, why do I have to choose
The less we talk the closer I get to you
This river wants to eat itself, like a seething Ouroborus
Wise man at your hotel you ashed all on his tinsel
Take a breath and leave before us
All your words ring full of falsehood
Boy this time it was a lie
We walk around with bloodshot eyes
You come from the dark to tell me how far I am from you
You come and drop by my hotel, like aurora borealis
Pink light on my lapel, your hand in my mimosa
Pin my hair back 'til it’s over

Cold Shoulder
03:32
|

|
Why didn't you tell me?
How did I not know?
You say all of it seems too bright
When there is no light at all
You’re blurred at the edges
You’re losing track of your heart
You're surrounded by pathogens
Say they’re pulling you apart
Baby I’ll make you feel better
Help you pick yourself off the ground
We’re only a drop in the ocean
Following the current around
Do you know that I'll always love you
Every day a little bit more
And I will be there
So you can see that
I’ll never leave you on your own
When the lights come on
Someone’s crying in the corner
Get up high when you feel low
Go put your hands in the soil
I say it wrong, I take it back
I’m glad that you can handle that
Will you let me warm your cold shoulder
Let the sun get to your bones
Baby I’ll make you feel better
Help you pick yourself off the ground
We’re only a drop in the ocean
Following the current around
Do you know that I'll always love you
Every day a little bit more
And I will be there
So you can see that
I’ll never leave you on your own
