Cold Hearted Kevin 03:36
lyrics

Should have know better than to reach for the high class Should have found it easier to stay in my own glass Should be happy when someone is suffering Got to be better than waiting and buffering You're making assumptions when you put up your tent When every conversation is an argument You've got to do the actions when you do the plan Cause cold hearted Kevin does the best he can Should have waited til the klaxon sounded The warble of frustration that was always unfounded The oven that's not getting hot in the kitchen Its never going to work again with no one fixing You're making assumptions when you put up your tent When every conversation is an argument You've got to do the actions when you do the plan Cause cold hearted Kevin does the best he can Oh no Oh no You've got to go You've got to go Oh no Oh no You've got to go You've got to go Should try harder when everything's breaking The room is moving all around the walls are shaking There’s nothing left to strive when Kevin makes them frustrated Break glass in emergency he’s always been hated You're making assumptions when you put up your tent When every conversation is an argument You've got to do the actions when you do the plan Cause cold hearted Kevin does the best he can You're making assumptions when you put up your tent When every conversation is an argument You've got to do the actions when you do the plan Cause cold hearted Kevin does the best he can You're making assumptions when you put up your tent When every conversation is an argument You've got to do the actions when you do the plan Cause cold hearted Kevin does the best he can

Worn Out Boy 05:09
lyrics

Where is the piece of paper? Where you wrote your name I’ve got it here somewhere I need someone to blame You're a crack in my phone screen Getting bigger through the day Soon you will shatter You will break and fall away Why there's no chance to walk beside you The slippery slope to steep to climb to through Served in a plastic jig you’re waiting The needs of the moment re-arranging This worn boy used to walk you home This worn out boy couldn't leave you alone This worn out boy when we ran to beat the rain This worn out boy that you’ve replaced There's hole in my soul and a creased up face This worn out boy will never walk with you again There's mud on the pavement It leaves footprints as I go Not much of a pattern We don’t have much to show Every conversation We seem to argue about the past Its getting boring And I know it just won’t last Why there's no chance to walk beside you The slippery slope to steep to climb to through Served in a plastic jig you’re waiting The needs of the moment re-arranging This worn boy used to walk you home This worn out boy couldn't leave you alone This worn out boy when we ran to beat the rain This worn out boy that you’ve replaced There's hole in my soul and a creased up face This worn out boy will never walk with you again There’s a world out there Gone with your own two eyes You look back and stare Severing all the ties This worn boy used to walk you home This worn out boy couldn't leave you alone This worn out boy when we ran to beat the rain This worn out boy that you’ve replaced There's hole in my soul and a creased up face This worn out boy will never walk with you again This worn boy used to walk you home This worn out boy couldn't leave you alone This worn out boy when we ran to beat the rain This worn out boy that you’ve replaced There's hole in my soul and a creased up face This worn out boy will never walk with you again This worn out boy will never walk with you again

You don’t know why You don’t know why This will be intense in time No I can’t make you stay You will be the first in line Nothing goes the right way This will be intense in time Fire bolts inside your dreams Scorching you why you sleep But you gather self esteem Its something that you can keep Monsters in the afternoon Forever keep you awake Fire bolts and red balloons both of us are at stake They’re fun, of course Moods that swing away They’re fun, of course Nothing goes the right way They’re fun, of course Moods that swing away They’re fun, of course Nothing goes the right way Oooh oooh oooh Oooh oooh oooh You want free You plainly You finely You want free Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn They’re fun, of course Moods that swing away They’re fun, of course Nothing goes the right way Of course Of course Of course Of course You can run away You can walk away You can move away You can get away They’re fun, of course Moods that swing away They’re fun, of course Nothing goes the right way Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn Worm on the turn and he’s never gonna learn

I was thinking of you And I won’t be coming back again Oh no Oh no Dreaming of you But I won’t pass by this way again Oh no Oh no Looking at you You can’t see beyond what is real Oh no Oh no Throwing things against the wall But you just don’t notice me at all Oh no Oh no Stop showing off in front of your friends when you get so sad Oh no Oh no Existing on your shoulder When you don’t know your not being bad Oh no Oh no Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back I didn’t want to be this way But sometimes you don’t get to choose Oh No Oh No Drifting around you in this house You can’t hear all my interviews Oh No Oh No I can only influence I cannot just be your only muse Oh No Oh No Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Now I’ve lost you on the way Can’t seem to seek you out Moving towards the bright lights Hope to see you soon no doubt Though I hope you’re not the one Tough you could become the most I hope you don’t end up like the others Just another wretched ghost Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back Woah oh oh oh Keeps coming back

Holiday from My Worries 04:42
lyrics

There’s a cold wind on the horizon It doesn’t know which way to turn It blows in every direction It never seems to learn It leaves without a warning It gusts where it will go There’s no point in trying to avoid it It won’t stop to make you go I need a holiday from my worries I need a holiday away from you I need a holiday from my worries So that's just what I’ll do The wind in your direction The vane spins all around It pours through cracks and crevices It never leaves the ground It leaves without a warning It gusts where it will go There’s no point in trying to avoid it It won’t stop to make you go I need a holiday from my worries I need a holiday away from you I need a holiday from my worries So that's just what I’ll do There was a scream from you Barely audible across the room The roof is missing, the shelves are clear The wind is blowing though there’s no one near I need a holiday from my worries I need a holiday away from you I need a holiday from my worries So that's just what I’ll do

Hole in the Ground (Wiggly Spiders) 03:36
lyrics

Feeling very uncomfortable Scratching at your back Hearing funny noises Just can’t find the knack Something on your jumper Something on your arm Shoulders rock and shaking Just try to stay calm Wiggly spiders in your hair Wiggly spiders everywhere Wiggly spiders between your toes Wiggly spiders up your nose Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground You will fall in and you won’t make a sound Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground Nothing seems to shake them, they're Crawling everywhere Underneath your armpits They're not playing fair Rampantly avoiding The chance to be removed Itchy legs and itchy feet Bravery approved Wiggly spiders in your hair Wiggly spiders everywhere Wiggly spiders between your toes Wiggly spiders up your nose Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground You will fall in and you won’t make a sound Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground You will fall in and you won’t make a sound Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground You will fall in and you won’t make a sound Don’t you know that there’s a hole in the ground

Tell Me Your Story 03:47

There’s no conversation when there’s silence all around There’s no understanding when your feelings hit the ground In the middle Of the silence Easy on the volume there’s a hush that’s going round Doesn’t make assumptions when there really is no sound In the finish When you’re quiet Spectre of pre-owned wannabe Lost your self in the certainty Don’t speak freely, its not free Your livelihood and voice all crinkly So tell Tell me your story Tell me your dreams And where you belong Tell Tell me your story Tell me your dreams And where you went wrong No justice for the quiet unless someone lets you speak Underneath the surface its really not that weak In the muted On the subdued Spectre of pre-owned wannabe Lost your mind in the certainty Don’t speak freely its not free Your livelihood and voice all crinkly So tell Tell me your story Tell me your dreams And where you belong So tell Tell me your story Tell me your dreams And where you went wrong So tell Tell me your story Tell me your dreams And where you belong So tell Tell me your story Tell me your dreams And where you went wrong

There’s a place for us I know Where the people come and go Its always noon when they arrive They won’t leave until its time They won’t go away, no way They won’t go away, in this time Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble Hard hands McGraw Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble Hard hands McGraw Its so strange when they walk in And your just so welcoming Then their arms begin to fail They don’t seem to be to scale They won’t go away, no way They won’t go away, in this time Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble Hard hands McGraw Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble Hard hands McGraw Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble Hard hands McGraw Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble Hard hands McGraw When you need a helping hand There’s no where else to turn Be there in instant and He’s not afraid to learn Nothing that he can’t fix and There’s nothing he can’t me-e-end His own incessant helping that will drive you round the bend Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble Hard hands McGraw Who’s your brother Now there’s trouble

Give me your bank details And I’ll take all your money These people do not exist Look at all my holiday photographs I’m always smiling These people do not exist If you take me out to dinner You can pay me for my advice These people do not exist Feeling a bit vulnerable Then let me help you out These people do not exist These people do not exist If you like sports cars and nice hotels I can help you These people do not exist I can invest in anything on your behalf, Just let me know These people do not exist Of course you have to patient If you want your money to grow These people do not exist No need to contact me I’ll let you know when you’ve got your money These people do not exist We don’t need a contract, My word is good enough These people do not exist How about you send me the money now We can sort out the details later These people do not exist You’ll have to be quick If you don’t want to miss out on this opportunity These people do not exist Of course I know where to invest Just look at my enormous watch These people do not exist If you don’t here from me in while don’t worry Your money’s safe with me I’m having a great time on holiday with your money You can be just like me
