You're So?!

You’re so...
You shouldn’t be allowed
You’re so...
You shouldn’t be allowed
You look so cool with your hair like that
Always look like you've just got outta the sack
It’s your lazy moves that do it for me
I forget myself and I cannot speak
I like the way you smile when you get up close
Then you get all shy and serious
There's something on my mind you oughta know
You’re so... hot
You shouldn’t be allowed
You’re so... what!?
You shouldn’t be allowed
Side eyes on the high street
Love’s back in fashion and you look so neat
I know you know I know you know
What you do to me and it makes me go (swoon)
When you call me I don’t walk I run
You’re too good looking to be this fun
You make me feel things no one has ever done
You shouldn’t, you shouldn’t, you shouldn’t
You shouldn’t, you shouldn’t, you shouldn’t
WAAAAA!

You're a Camera
01:47

Don't know my good side
Never stood out in a crowd
Wide eyed sharp shooter found me somehow
Pictures of posers
Make me run and hide
But when you came over I couldn't help but smile
You’re a camera
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
You’re a camera
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
You captured me in an instant
A blink of an eye and I'd missed it
You got me
As quick as a flash
Like two hearts in a game of snap
We're on a roll
and everyone knows, they say
It shows in the way you light up my face
Time forgets
But you get the moment
Best friends and
All our remember-whens
You're a camera
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
You're a camera
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
You're a camera
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
You're a camera
In a dark room or a gallery
Everyone can clearly see
That the camera loves me

Ugly Cry
02:53
|
|||
|
I remember true love written 'cross the sky
The tenderness of new love filling up my mind
But I heard somebody said once
That when you grow up your heart dies
So I listen to the radio for the songs written for me
The songs that have that echo of the way that life should be
The ones that make me realise that’s it's not too late
It’s not too late for me
Oh, I don’t want to cheer up with these feeling deep inside
And I don’t just want to tear-up, I wanna let it out in style
Oh, I just need to be alone for a little while
With my tissues and my headphones
For a long and lovely ugly cry

Party from Hell
04:11
|

|
Okay, they're gone
You can come out now everyone
Put on some tunes
Let's sing songs like we used to do
This is the after party
After the party from hell
So grab a drink, head into the garden
And dance till the sky turns red
In the country and in the town
Everything's turning around
Can't you feel it?
It's bubbling out of the ground
There's nothing can stop us now
Okay, they've gone
You can relax now everyone
Get in the conga line
It's time for comrades to unite
This is the after party
After the party from hell
So grab a drink, head into the garden
And dance till the sky turns red
In the country and in the town
Everything's turning around
Can't you feel it?
It's bubbling out of the ground
There's nothing can stop us now

Love Them? Tell Them!
03:12
|

Got to thinking, so I wanted to say
Why waste time hiding away
Seems so dumb, holding back the ocean
Lay your feelings out in the open
Say what you mean and mean what you say
The more you open your heart, the more it shows the way
Sleeping and dreaming are not the same thing
So I'll keep saying it again and again
If you love them, tell them
Throw your heart wide open and let in the sun
If you love them tell them
Surprising to see how quickly it's gone
Then they’ll know, woah oh oh oh
They're not alone
Got to thinking, so I wanted to say
Time is fleeting and it’s running away
Your heads ruling your heart and holding you down
Surrender your love and let it all out
Let the better angels of your nature
Take the wheel, see where it gets ya
Let yourself go, keep nothing hidden
Just love them, love them, love them, tell them!
That you love them
There's so much more to life than walking the line
If you love them, tell them
Express yourself and we just might
Then you’ll know, woah oh oh oh
This is our time
Throw some sunshine
Down upon their day
It only takes a heartbeat to say
Take a minute, take a moment
Three little words
Love them, love them, love them, tell them!
That you love them, tell them
Throw your heart wide open and let in the sun
If you love them tell them
Show you’re happy and they’re the reason
Love them? Tell them!

The patient is resting
The symptoms are vexing
He just will not rise from his bed
He said:
Everything is less
Except an insatiable lust for laziness
It started in winter
But spring was no different
He speaks in a whisper
And he says, he says, he says
He don’t wanna come out to play with us
He’s got an insatiable lust for laziness
Get up! Get out!
The world’s falling down and all you do is sleep
It’s a minute to twelve and time's running out
We need ya up on your feet
Your friends who care can see it’s despair
That has you in the clutch of an impossible
Insatiable lust for laziness
So c’mon!

Fast Friends
02:29
|

Fast friends
In the slow lane
Unwinding
Walking, talking and laughing
Fast friends
Moving at a snail's pace
Unswerving
aimlessly, idly wandering
And I wonder when
We'll get the chance
To do this again
Slowly strolling
Fast friends
Fast friends
Without haste
Unwavering
Waving at neighbours
and nodding to strangers
I wonder when
We'll get the chance
To do this again
Slowly strolling
Fast friends
We’ve followed our own path
Through the long grass
And even after all these years have past
Fast friends
Taking time to be together again

Trying hard to catch his eye
What a cute guy, he’s a handsome fella
Never one to be tongue tied
Thought I just might die, I started to shiver
And like that my path stopped in its tracks
There was light where everything was black
Like a metaphorical heart attack
Or something like that…
When you were my boyfriend
We made plans together for things to make and do
When you were my boyfriend
We stayed up forever talking everything through
Taught my boyfriend how to dance
He’s a sweetheart, he’s a handsome fella
I thought his moves were out of sight
We made out all night like it could never be over
And like that my tears stopped in their tracks
There was light when everything was black
Am I theoretically bouncing back
Or something like that…
When you were my boyfriend
We made plans together for things to make and do
When you were my boyfriend
We stayed up forever talking everything through
I put my boyfriend in the band
He’s our biggest fan, he’s a handsome fella
He doesn’t need to sing or dance
Coz he hand-claps better than anybody ever
We fell into the tender trap
All I want is that feeling back
With no hypothetical strings attached
Or something like that…
When you were my boyfriend
We made plans together for things to make and do
When you were my boyfriend
We stayed up forever talking everything through
We had times to treasure
Love for each other
And finally, finally, finally
My heart went boom

Butterflies
03:33
|

|
I feel shy, I don’t know why
I feel tingles down my spine
When I’m with you I feel alive
When I’m not with you I think about you
All the time
You give me butterflies
You give me butterflies
I kept your messages to me
I know them off by heart but still I read
When I’m not with you I feel such calm
And when we are apart...
You give me butterflies
You give me butterflies

Cast off, I’m sailing away
For adventure on the ocean waves
So far across the sea
Ignore the sirens who wait by the shore
To the horizon to answer her call
So long lost at sea
Fantastic tales of the sea
Another shipwreck mystery
Fantastic tales of the sea
And wonders of the deep
A wild sunken paradise
Forgotten beauty that could hypnotise
Lost under the sea
Fantastic tales of the sea
Another story of heroic feats
Fantastic tales of the sea
Facing monsters of the deep
Surface on the beach of a brand-new land
The surf at our feet and pearls in our hands
From the heart of the sea
Swept up lovers standing side by side
We turn and face the turning tide
And wave goodbye to the sea
Fantastic tales of the sea
New adventures so extraordinary
Fantastic tales of the sea
Diving into a love so deep

Happy Winter
03:35
|

Sweetheart is this what you wanted me to be
A broken reflection of you
I see we’re still living with my memories
That mirror is tainted by truth
There’s not enough drink in the world to feel free
The season makes me reach for one more
The wreak of regret is doing little for me
Than to see the truth of it all
As the moon rises over the roofs of my road
Knowing that it's over leaves me out in the cold
The bitter wind stinging my eyes hasn’t gone
Happy winter my lover, it's time I moved on
We are within touching distance of love
Hope makes a troublesome friend
As hard as we’re trying, it is never enough
Wayfaring nearing its end
I’d never turn from my reason to be
I loved him before I knew you and before we were three
And now we are four, to my love I will cling
Happy winter my lover, it’s not long till spring
As the moon rises over the roofs of my road
Knowing that it’s over, leaves us out in the cold
The bitter wind stinging my eyes is a lie
Happy winter my lover, and for now it’s goodbye

Tiny violins
For we who’ve loved and lost
We have the stars
