Karate in the dark is forming
In the back of beyond
We claw a little light in the evening
As we pray for our lungs
A parasitic line has you freakin’ out
Unable to run
Parole acidic love that you’re feelin’
Trap us under a big blue dumb fellon
Aeronautical
Coming up so fast
Don’t rally to be young
Evidence of holes
Living with the moles
In the tunnels
Painting Sistine lines on the ceiling
As I twiddle my thumbs
Planetary life revolving
Round the tip of a golden gun baron
An ornamental life that you’re living in
Melanoma salon
Corrode the little lies that your keeping down
Brimming over for all to sing along
Aeronautical
Coming up so fast
Don’t rally to be young
Evidence of holes
Living with the moles
In the tunnels
Boring
Boring
All this time to stay at home
Send in the guard
Medicating three lions
Come get in line
If you’re old, cold, sold, bold or blind
For love?
Aeronautical
Coming up so fast
Don’t rally to be young
Evidence of holes
Living with the moles
In the tunnels

Step into my ego world
Walking backwards to wannabe rhymes
Eat another Milky Way
Singing about how you used to be a live wire
You’re listening to Snow Patrol
Pretending that you’re into foreign jazz
A photo of a hurricane
You’re standing under a drizzling rain cloud
Summoning the rhapsody
Coming up with lines of Kermit Frog
Listen to my poetry, my lovely hair and my lovely…
Brown Nose
Brown Nose
So much bigger than before
Swollen head to heal the poor
Silly little likes
Keep your dream alive
So trite
You’re no better than
All this reverence
Shine a little light on
Shine a little light on
Dreams that die
Sentimental melodies
Skimming off the back of Skinny Love
Cawing into microphones
Thinking that you’re Frank Sinatra’s clone ghost
All the little lines you’re spreading round
Cutting off your nose to spite your…
Clown Face
Clown Face
So much bigger than before
Swollen head to heal the poor
Silly little likes
Keep your dream alive
So trite
You’re no better than
All this reverence
Shine a little light on
Shine a little light on
Dreams that die
So trite

Lulla-buy me

All the things we never do
But don’t complain
We’re swearing at the moon
A ferris wheel of moron doom
Comment on the rhythm of the walks
Realise
There’s nothing new to zoom
We’re pawing at the liner notes
Pass Go
Outside Soon
Paraphrase the rabble in their thrones
Parade
The blue in your tirade
A reverence for foreign nodes
Celebrate the clapping in the rain
Refrain
We’re dancing to explain
Another day in twilight zone
Pass Go
Outside Soon
So little weirdos
Don’t sew little riddles
You’re wrong

Elemental rules
Covenants of crazy fools
Pterodactyl cries
Thumbing out my own two eyes
Swimming in the reeds
Wallow in the rose faced scene
Drumming out the grey
Elephants just run to the forest and play cool
I’ll be on my feet again
(Running)
Down to where the water bends
(Humming)
All the things I never said
Please show me where I belong
I hope you’ll understand
All the time I spend in nervous land
(Strumming)
Rhymes that barely make a stand
Please show me where I belong
Ever since you crawled
Gathering the same old mould
Paradoxical
Living like a stone with gelatine hole through
I’ll be on my feet again
(Running)
Down to where the water bends
(Humming)
All the things I never said
Please show me where I belong
I hope you’ll understand
All the time I spend in nervous land
(Strumming)
Rhymes that barely make a stand
Please show me where I belong
You dirty little monster
I’m not trying not to feed you
Old enough to settle down
Cold enough to be around
With faux intuition
You’re back to the zone
Never saying No

Deforestation
For Big Macs and Drones
We shout at poor souls on the end of the phones
Alien nation
Of Karen persuasion
Coughing up plans
Like an 8 ball invasion of...
Lies we’re told
Lies we’re sold
Lies we are told
Lies we’re sold
Behold evolution
A petulant monkey
Is spitting at friends coz it’s dull and it’s angry
Pasteurisation turned cows into clones
Conspiracy tools turnin’ shapes into fragrant...
Lies we’re told
Lies we’re sold
Lies we are told
Lies we’re sold
Sold
