about

Just as we finished my first album, I wrote this in Ross Ryan's kitchen and recorded it the next day - just in time!

lyrics

I may never remember my past
The future may not last
Her taste is in the teacup
And Tinkerbell is so hard to find
Repetition doesn't work
Imperfection is all we're worth
There are floaties and life rafts
For the people who jump in first
The possible results are never less than amazing
The invisible results are always there for the taking
Don't let their ideas violate your ideals,
your fortune is fear
Put your fingers in your ears,
Cause they don't know how you feel.

Can't you feel it growing closer
Don't you know you're growing older?
Our intention is a chauffer
If I'm asleep why don't you wake me up.

A / B / F# / A

We're the morning after
The talk around town
We're habitual disasters
Lunatics in dressing gowns.

C#m / C#m / G# / G#

We're inadequate in so many ways
As World Nations go
Our collars aren't sitting right
We're walking round every night
Looking for pieces of the puzzle
We're trying to expose
Our lamplights are burning out
The Sermon on the Mount
With a Socrates theme and a Freudian scream
And a corny Conga line prose
No quiid pro quo
Cause they're gonna tell you what you know.

B / E / F# / F#

BRIDGE:
It's time to speak up again
It's time to speak up again
It's time to speak up again

G#

C#m / C#m / G# / G#

Can't you feel it growing closer
Don't you know you're growing older?
Our intention is our chauffer
If I'm asleep why don't you wake me up

A / B / F# / A

We're the morning after
We're the talk around town
We're habitual disasters
Lunatics in dressing gowns.
