// THE 1975 // Go down Soft sound Midnight Car lights Playing with the air Breathing in your hair Go down Soft sound Step into your skin? I'd rather jump in your bones Taking up your mouth, so you breathe through your nose
// LOVE ME // You've got a beautiful face but got nothing to say (Oh!) You look famous, let's be friends And portray we possess something important And do the things we like, meaning We've just come to represent A decline in the standards are what we accept Yeah, yeah, yeah, NO
// CHANGE OF HEART // For goodness sake I wasn't told you'd be this cold Now it's my time to depart and I just had a change of heart I'll quote "on tte road" like a twat and wind my way out of the city Finding a girl who is equally pretty won't be hard Oh, I just had a change of heart Then she said, "I've been so worried 'bout you lately You were fit but you're losing it You played a part, this is how it starts" Oh I just had a change of heart You used to have a face straight out of a magazine Now you just look like anyone I just had a change of heart I feel as though I was deceived I never found love in the city I just sat in self-pity and cried in the car Oh I just had a change of heart...
// UGH! // Hey boy, stop pacing around the room Using other people's faces as a mirror for you I know your lungs need filling Since your gums have lost their feeling But don't say that you're giving it up again And you're the only thing that's going on in my mind Taking over my life a second time I don't have the capacity for fucking You're meant to be helping me When I said I liked it better without my money, I lied It took a little while to recognize That I, I'm not giving it up again...
//IF I BELIEVE YOU // I've got a God shaped hole that's infected And I'm petrified of being alone now It's pathetic, I know And I tossed and I turn in my bed It's just like I Lostmyhead (Lostmyhead) And if I believe you Will that make it stop? If I told you I need you Is that what you want? And I'm broken and bleeding And begging for help And I'm asking you Jesus, show yourself I thought I'd met you once or twice But that was just because the dabs were nice and opening up my mind Showing me consciousness is primary in the universe And I had a revelation I'll be your child if you insist I mean if it was you that made my body You probably shouldn't have made me atheist But, oh, I'm a lesbian kiss I'm an evangelist And if you don't want to go to hell then Miss, you better start feeling this.
// PLEASE BE NEAKED //
// HOW TO DRAW // I've not learned how to draw I've not learned how to draw What if you die with all of the colours?
// SOMEBODY ELSE // So I heard you found somebody else And at first, I thought it was a lie I took all my things that make sounds The rest I can do without I don't want your body But I hate to think about you with somebody else Our love has gone cold You’re intertwining your soul with somebody else I'm looking through you While you’re looking through your phone And then leaving with somebody else No, I don't want your body But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
// THE SOUND // Well I know when you’re around cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you’re around cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart I can’t believe I forgot your name Oh baby won’t you cum again? She said “I’ve got a problem with your shoes And your tunes, but I might move in And I thought that you were straight, now I’m wondering” It's not about reciprocation, it's just all about me A sycophantic, prophetic, Socratic junkie wannabe There's so much skin to see A simple Epicurean philosophy And you say I'm such a cliché I can't see the difference in it either way And we left things to protect my mental health
// LOSTMYHEAD // And you said I’ve lost my head Can you see it? Can you see it? Belly aches while you’re in bed Can you feel it? Can you feel it?
// SHE'S AMERICAN // A big town Synthetic apparitions of not being lonely Look! He's having a breakdown Oh what a let down, a shame, I think he might die! She's dancing enthralling, I guess I gotta wait my turn I said, "Don't fall in love with the moment" She said I've got a lot to learn You know I'm in love with this city But the green is turning brown And I just look pathetic now And we're socially relevant, she’s American If she says I've got to fix my teeth Then she's so American (she's so American)...
// PARIS // She said hello, she was letting me know We share friends in Soho She’s a pain in the nose And I’m a pain in women’s clothes And you’re a walking overdose in a great coat And so she wrote a plan for it on the back of a fag packet She had to leave because she couldn’t hack it Not enough noise and too much racket I think I’ve spent all my money and your friends, oh But how I’d love to go to Paris again Oh, how I’d love to go to Paris again
