about

November 2021.

lyrics

Yer desire to be hip
Drips off your sleeve
I loved a menace
to the gallery scene
We regret nothing
But the superstar glow
That you wanted so bad
Like your own shadow

And still it cuts thru
Like a glove like a knife
That you carry at all times
at the heel of yer life
In the edges of yer talk
When you walk around brick
We all stagger on the stones
you taste another dip of yer

Key, it’s me, it’s modern sensibilities
To walk in the morning or crawl on yer knees
It’s not good it’s great
It shines like yer teeth
In the daylight it’ll
Wake you in the evening its just

Bad romance
You wouldn’t give it to yer plants
Not the rainwater loving
Not the stars in the evening
It’s bad romance
Don’t go cancelling yer plans
Cuz no matter how yer conceding
The heart will take a beating for you

Poets ain’t nothin
That’s what I learnt of myself
Shove me in a bar
I’ll be as good a hell
But poets ain’t meant for the cultural elite
Lyin on paper
Ain’t far from lying on a sheet

sheet, it’s me, modern sensibilities
To walk in the morning or to crawl on yer knees
No, not good it’s great
It shines like yer teeth
In the daylight it’ll
Wake you in the evening its just

Bad romance
You wouldn’t give it to yer plants
Not the rainwater loving
Not the stars in the evening
It’s bad romance
Don’t go cancelling yer plans
Cuz no matter how yer conceding
The heart will take a beating for you
