Co-Star
00:53
|
|||
|
Just as long as I can see the horizon
There'll be nothing stopping me from getting back to you
And if you're not there I'll keep on walking
I do anything just to avoid bad news
I'd climb Mt. Fuji
I dive in too deep
I burn out so fast
But maybe we should give up
Cos I checked your Co-Star
And it says things that I would not remark

Castle Hill
00:59
|
|||
|
Castle Hill
You've got
The beauty
To bring these
Beaten bodies to their feet
So get on out...
And we will bestow
The benefit of the doubt
To our walking shoes
Cos we love you

Money Man

|

Where have you been money man?
Where have you been?
Please take my hand
oooo

Man out on The Road
00:59
|
|||
|
There's a man out on the road
He's sleeping in the depot
I see him everyday
I see him meditate
In the morning sun
I guess that he's seen better days
But I won't let it bring me down
He's probably doing alright
He sleeps in a bag of down
On all those cold winter nights
To all you nine-to-five's with all your clip-clop fancy shoes
I guess there's
Something to be said about having
Nothing to lose
There's a man out on the road
With a multitude of heavy loads
I guess we all express our sorrow

I'm Not a Deadbeat
00:57
|
|||
|
I'm not a deadbeat
I'm challenged by my friends
I fall in love
But only at the day's end
Oh love, my heart is entered in your contest
Give me a start you'll find that I will not rest
I've got so much to do but I
Just sit and read instead
So there you go
I might be a deadbeat
But I'm not dead
|
||||
6. |
I'm Not Your Father
00:57
|
|||
|
I'm not your father
But give him a call
He's probably waiting by the phone
Because we all die
And don't wanna do it alone
Oh love, my heart
Is drunken on the thought of you and me
But it will never be
|
||||
7. |
Trying to Forget You
01:00
|
|||
|
Diving into
Some fantasy
I will see what
I wanna see
Until I get bitten
Until I get grilled
How am I to fall for days
And wake up
With my head on straight
Singing a different tune
And feeling new
And feeling the need you give you all this love
Is the last thing on my mind
When I'm trying to forget you
And people believe that everything's just fine
But you're not on their mind

Bedroom Sit

10. |
||||
|
I miss you
I miss the true you
But what would I really know about you?
Well I'm
Waiting on you
I'm waiting for you to realise how
Much you could use
Being free from the enemy inside your own head
Being able to sleep comfortably in someone else's bed
Coming 'round to realise that every tale has two sides
And that the world is not as crazy as it seems
But what would I know?
|

Winter City Girl
00:58
|
|||
|
When we play these games
I know one of us will feel the hurt
But what else is there to entertain us in this
Winter city girl?
You've got your friends
I guess I've got my friends too
But that is different to making love in the middle of the afternoon
When you left I waited in the desert of my mind
Of which is now an oasis of the tears I could not hide
I'm so alone
With my family on the phone
I'm poor as hell
With my shelter and my good health
So I'm doing fine
With my book and my drink
And I'll walk that line
To what the future brings

Family Dinner
00:53
|
|||
|
Family are the friends you choose
And so important is the choice of food
This table here is set for four
But sometimes entertainment calls for more
At my door
Don't know whether to make
A tuna bake
Or apple pie
Or lemon cake
What are you allergies?
You dietaries?
Do you prefer
Vietnamese?
And If you come around about an hour earlier
To help us stay in tune
Then I know friends are the family I choose
|

Scrambled Eggs
00:46
|
|||
|
Scrambled eggs are easy
Scramble eggs are cheap
In the morning
To get you on your feet
Mix it with some milk into a yellow
Till it comes together slow
Secret to success is that you never want it overdone
You know
|
||||
14. |
Two of Us
00:59
|
|||
|
Next time you throw me under that bus
Make sure that you make sure it's the
Two of us
I can't afford to go without you by my side
Meeting all the marks on your criteria
Waiting for a spark that's gonna pick me up
Something tells me that your head is in the clouds
The two of us would make each other proud
|
||||
15. |
Leave Me Here
00:52
|
|||
|
When I'm trying to explain
Something strange just gets in the way
I made it work in my head
Haven't found a way into yours yet
So go on
Leave me here
Every day has a sunset
|

Connie Didn't Listen
00:58
|
|||
|
Connie didn't listen
And she left me in the middle of night
Connie didn't listen
Put her money to a one-way flight
She was doing fine
All she needed was a bit more time
Oh Connie, please
Please take care
You've got your friends
You've got none there
They're gonna turn you to a big star
They're gonna eat your heart
Put you on a snake-pit tight-rope
So if you're getting tired of the wide road
Connie there's a key under the brick behind my back door

Be Still
00:56
|
|||
|
Trying to tie yourself up in so many ways
Friendships by the wayside with a full plate
With all due respect, I guess
I just wanna know why you agreed
To do
So many things at once
At least you're not sitting in a cold cave
Counting all your blessings with the dark days
Hey, do you want to come out?
Sorry, gotta tune my anger out
Still
Be still

I Can't Get to Sleep
01:00
|
|||
|
I can't get to sleep
Maybe it's the things I read about you
All alone, sitting on my phone
Maybe it's a memory of something that you said to me
Maybe it's a forty-foot container anxiety
But I guess I've got tomorrow
And as I acquiesce
To a day of tired stress
I think about you
And all the things we used to do
Maybe I made a big mistake
Maybe there is another way
Counting sheep cos I can't choose my fate
|

Quiet, Lazy Life
00:48
|
|||
|
Well I sold my soul to this quiet, lazy life
Signed away my youth until I'm old
Just to find that all of this proverbial strife
Was a way to feed that dog inside that hole
And as soon as I heard that you left for the States
I had realised what I'd become
Just an unreliable fool in a cape
And I'm not sure if this can be undone

Dad Explains Planes
00:55
|
|||
|
Well, the bottom of the aeroplane wing is flat
And the top of the aeroplane wing is
Rounded
So when the air hits the front of the wing
And splits
The air going over the top
Has to go a greater distance than the air under the wing
At the back of the wing
The air
Comes together and meets again
But
As the air goes over the top of the wing
It goes faster
Because it goes greater distance
And under the wing it goes slower
Air over the top of the wing going faster -
The molecules are further apart
And as the molecules are further apart there's less air pressure
So there's a lower air pressure on top of the wing
And with more dense molecules under the wing there's a higher air pressure
And the higher air pressure under the wing
Pushes the wing upward
Thank you

Grand Designs
00:59
|
|||
|
I got grand designs
I got parking fines
And when the air is getting cold you'll find me at Coles
It's twenty-six degrees
So I'll pick the weeds
Mumma got me working under the trees
Digging all my holes
I wanna go out with a banging rock n roll song sing-along when I die
Work hard, feel good about my life so I don't need to cry
Then I come back as a little bird and say
Thank you for the worms today
A lesson learned is a good time come my way

Overload
00:59
|
|||
|
Funny how everything's alright when we hit the road
Guess I chose to carry myself to and overload
Why is everything in the morning harder?
Wanna work on loving you
But it's just like running through
A stampede field with a million horses
Trying to find their truth
I know you want a fresh start
Maybe you wanna go to Mars
Remember to love and criticise yourself for who you are
Funny how everything's alright when we hit the road
Guess I chose to carry myself to and overload

Fix My Feet
00:56
|
|||
|
Harry won't you help me fix my feet?
I feel like a goose
Downtown Chicken Street
I put off seeing you
When I was in Adelaide
Only to see my brother on
Holidays
Harry I think I should tell my friends about you
There's nothing better in the world that I would put my money to
So I hope that you know
You've got a solid flow in the gifts that you give to the world
To all the boys and girls

R: Hello Margaret
M: Hello Ronnie
R: Listen
M: Yes?
R: There's something we need to talk about.
I know you've been taking my eggs from the fridge.
I would appreciate it if you asked first.
M: Ok, I'm so sorry I have been taking your eggs,
But you never change the toilet roll.
Why don't you do it?
I only takes like three seconds.
And not to mention you are always bringing people around at like 2am on a Wednesday night.
R: Well, I work weekends so you are just going to have to deal with it.
M: Oh my goodness... I can't believe it.
I take one egg and you kick up a fuss about it, when you are being so inconsiderate.
R: Well.. Maybe we should take some time out and talk about things when we are not so angry at each other.
M: Ok, fine then. Bye.
R: Bye-bye.

Measure Up
00:58
|
|||
|
Measure up
All of your decisions
With a hard glance looking in the mirror
Could I make myself any clearer?
Measure up
Looking at your Insta
Does it really, really matter to you?
What did I just forget to do?
I'm at the park
I get a soda
I hear the grass
Whisper about a girl
I'm feeling vintage
With all these hip kids
With David by my side
And he's a real guy
So I will measure up
And be a stupid boy
I'm spending too much working on my fake life
Just to get a like

You Will Remember Love
00:52
|
|||
|
Don't you wanna be a part
Of the future with your friends
Killing yourself is awfully hard
For the people that you love
Maybe I don't know what you love
But I know that you forgot
I can assure you that you will remember
|
||||
32. |
||||
|
There is a certain gap
That frustrates and divides us
That sometimes blurs all the people that we trust
We can try to relax
And stop being so angry
But it comes on back
And just leaves us empty
From dusk till dawn
Our minds cannot stay calm
Of no apparent avail
It seems that we have failed
But amid the things that I had forgotten
There's one thing that's not surprising
It's that the sun just keeps on rising

Woman Up the Street
01:00
|
|||
|
There is a woman up the street
That when I think of her I need
To throw down my feelings of love
Because she doesn't buy bullshit stories
Co-Star is telling me I'm crazy
Thank God for scientific ladies
So scared to settle down fast
I do and I don't want to get to that point at last
