Why can't you love me Like you love your cat? You never make a fuss of me like that If I shit on the kitchen floor Will you love me more? When you have your girlfriends round I make polite conversation I don't sit on the sofa Licking my ass You're cat walks on the piano Makes some kind of weird melody You stick it on Instagram And everyone says he's so cute and so sweet But I can play Imagine and Für Elise But no one gives a shit

I organise my life Around cigarettes and glucose spikes Alright? We got bigger fish to fry Wait til we hit 40 Come summertime You better get busy living your life When you have a bad day, give up Go home and sleep Try again tomorrow Not every bad day can become a good day That's universe speaking to you Sending you a message Listen to the universe

Left Right Right left Shiny boots Tight chest Smart haircut Step in time Must be true Coz it rhymes Armoured body In the mirror Strike a pose Take a picture This is you This is me Inside Cacophony Ooo you’re sharing your political views online Must be album release time Commodify your life You’re part of the problem mate Bully’s side kick Bully’s special prize Healthy body Healthy mind Ulterior motive Step in time Must be true Coz it rhymes Body language Body Talk Chase a ball Go to war Your body The commodity In the picture……

Vibe clash, chalk and cheese He was lager I was Ecstasy Double top 180 Heart like a vibrator that needs a new battery Vibrations, overtones, harmonies Massive bloke standing too close to me He’s straight to TV like a film in the 80s Don’t switch over I’m just getting into him Bubble and squeak like my mind Tongue in cheek in salty brine Amen breaks for Randell He’s got funny feet so he has to wear special sandals I say birds you say bitches She says hilarious, got me in stitches Smoking rollups in ya dressing gown Curtain twitchers one bollock hanging out 4am I’m up with the farmers 5am train to Yarmouth Bucket and spade, lacey knickers On the corner work gangs of vegetable pickers Paning for gold where the sewage pipe hits the beach Scraping mold where my best life hits the screen The kind of content he’s on here for Reels and reels of Japanese soft core Cigarettes and glucose spikes Down Yarmouth big fish to fry Wait til we hit 40 come summertime Watching the horizon waiting for the waves to rise I’ve got monopoly pants coz I’m a player Got Christmas socks coz I believe in Santa He’s alright but his Dad’s a wanker

Pass the drink I’m waiting for you On the edge I don’t want to You look worse than death On the ran tan But do you recollect What Bruce Lee said? You drink as if you’re settling a score with life But she don’t care she don’t about you And your troubled mind She’s gotta bigger fish to fry Just remember what Bruce Lee said Bruce Lee said Make your bed Do your stretches Mindfulness Eat your breakfast Try to meditate Listen without talking Then you get the call I’ll meet you in the bathroom
