Little Weirdo
04:30
|
|||
|
I'm meditating and feeling so forlorn
Hyperventilating, each heart beat fading, I'm tired of stating
We're dying from once we're born
CHORUS
I'm the only one that can see
This little weirdo
Each days a blessing I'm confessing now
All life's been testing, my wound needs dressing, my time is pressing
Its all a mess n' how
CHORUS

The tried and tested little motion
I guess I really should have put some clothes on
The icicles that hang are souvenirs
I'm far more shallow than it first appears
CHORUS
Internal character assassination
Put myself down before you can
Who is the most mighty man?
Kick back and let me tell you a short story
Its a tome of all my former glory
Are you listening? I'm letting out a secret
There's nothing captured so don't read it
CHORUS

Itch

CHORUS
She's got an itch, an itch you can't scratch
All what they're saying is just harmless playing
And is not going to sway my opinion
I don't wanna go there, its a disease ridden thoroughfare
You can tell from the colour there that its festering
CHORUS
A badge from the drunken night cuz sex is my kryptonite
I'm all puss and talking shite but I'm sizzling
Hold my breath I'm going in, jump headfirst so lets begin
I drank two thirds of a bottle of gin thanks a million
CHORUS
For goodness sake you've started flacking
Its crispy bacon
Somethings on fire I'm certainly no crier
But I've warts n all I'm no liar its a big mistake
Three hours of pleasure - I took a fourth for good measure
Now I'm having a seizure and some skin flake
CHORUS
For goodness sake you've started flacking
Its crispy bacon
Pass the water, its Satan's daughter
I shouldn't oughta
CHORUS

Dystopian Future
02:50
|
|||
|
Well behold the ruined world that you destroyed with your own hand
Chipped away at it bit by bit through selfish, reckless plans
I saw the whole thing coming but kept cards close to my chest
So enjoy the chaos that you made, you truly passed the test
CHORUS
I don't wanna live, don't wanna live like that
With your dystopian future
I don't wanna live, don't wanna live like that
A damaged broken creature
I don't wanna pray it will do no good
And I've no time for the preacher
I don't wanna live, don't wanna live your life
And your dystopian future
And then it was all over
Well hahaha and la-de-da we should have seen this coming
I pissed myself with laughter but I may have dodgy plumbing
Lets wave a flag of surrender and listen to a story
Told by bigots, fakes and righteous men on their long crusade to glory
CHORUS

Charming
04:34
|
|||
|
Check out my smile and smell the posies
And take the front seats
Now get ready to applaud
You truly are looking fantastic
Slightly plastic
Lets just say it, I'm a fraud
CHORUS
You realised I'm ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-charming
Now you're paralysed by my ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-charming
Every cloud has a silver lining
Mine needs refining
But I'll dance on anyway
Please take my hand for quite a journey
Got to get up early
But thanks again for the fun play
CHORUS

Generation Me
04:26
|
|||
|
Duck down Mrs Alpha we are under attack
Did I tell you all my woes and how I damaged my back?
And did I mention all the fillies that I've had in the sack?
Speech is free for generation me
I haven't any messages and it caused a hot flush
Dirty linen is out hanging and it should be hush hush
How that naughty Mrs Alpha kind of gave me her thrush
Would you like to see? Generation me
CHORUS
Those harsh words I wrote down will hurt and destroy you
Identity hidden, disposable
But tomorrow I will be at the front of the long queue
Drawing attention, fully posable
I've accumulated followers on my latest TikTok
When I filmed myself and friends all simply running amok
I think I'm really really cool but I am really a cock with a selfie
Generation me
CHORUS

Shitty Valentine
05:05
|
|||
|
Well its another shitty valentine
Its the same thing each year time after time
I even wrote a slushy lovestruck rhyme
In which I managed to swear in all but one line
Well its another shitty valentine
I had to make do with sex from a friend of mine
A crippling commercial pantomime
Each to their own its not really a crime
CHORUS
I'm faking emotion again
I learnt it way back when
I'm faking emotion again
My loving self has worn thin
Well its another shitty valentine
I'm counting the cards I think I got nine
So sorry if this sounds a tad unkind
But I'm wiping my ass with all of mine
CHORUS

I Apologise for My Sins
03:29
|
|||
|
I owe the firmest of apologies for being so unfair
For pretending I was with you but was never really there
I always made the loudest noise and did the craziest things
Sit back enjoy the moment
I apologise for my sins
I'm sorry I am little more than constant huff and bluster
I demonstrated ever bit of love that I could muster
In the great scheme of life these confessions count as wins
This won't frequently
I apologise for my sins
I'm the black sheep of the family I'm the embarrassment of the block
Please excuse me next door neighbour as I wave about my cock
I feel this searing shoulder pain from constant voodoo pins
Stop stabbing haven't you heard?
I apologise for my sins
I'm waving whilst you're drowning I'm waving with pure joy
At the final living moments of just one that I annoy
From my mountain made of wine bottles and empty lager tins
I'm the king of rats and rascals
I apologise for my sins
