Move

How can I stay still
When I've just gotta move?
How can you just sit there
Without a worry or a care
All relaxed and chill
When I just can't sit still?
I've just got to move
Remember that time in the park?
It was cold, and it was dark
You thought there was something there behind you
A chill ran down your spine
It's like that all the time
That's why I've got to move
I've just got to move
And if you think that I approve
I don't
I've just got to move
And if you think that we're about to dance
I'm not
I've just got to move

Knock knock Mister Immigration man
Please let me in
I've got a healthy constitution
And my heart is free of sin
Mostly cos I don't believe
In that kind of thing
But I've heard that you are open-minded
Excuse me Mister Immigration man
Please let stay
I've paid all of my taxes
I work as much as play
And I've got a 5-year-plan
I wrote it up all neat
All my docs are notarised
And in French too, gratuite
Help me Mr Immigration man
Please let me start again
I'll give you all of my money
Why can't we just be friends?
Why must you interrogate me?
Ask me about my life
I don't even really know
My mother's sister's doctor's wife

Saving Myself
04:09
|

Follow your dreams
I've had a few
Stick to what you know
And you'll get there too
Learn from the best
They will show you how
From little things, little by little
They'll grow now
Don't worry about it
Everything will work out in the end
One day at time
Put your head down
If you see it, it will come
If you could only see it from here
So don't worry about it
Everything will work out in the end
I'm, I'm saving
I'm saving myself
Can you see the light
Shining at the end of tunnel?
That's your saviour, that's your redemption
No, not long to go now
So don't worry about it
Everything will work out in the end
I'm, I'm saving
I'm saving myself
I'm, I'm saving
A bullet for retirement

Ripple Effect
04:42
|

Take it away
Send me off into the fog
I know I did
But that was before
Close your mouth
Pull that thread inside
It made a hole
And I quite liked that sweater
And you did it twice
The ripple effect
And I was happy
In the calm
I know you
I kept it myself
So take it away
No good comes from mis-speak
Do you feel better, will you sleep?
Do you feel lighter, now this burden we keep for you?
Take these words and take these stones
Leave our good still hearts alone
Take the excuses, the little lies you love to tell yourself at night
Give us peace and let us live
I have not one single shit to give
Ripple effect
Take these words and take these stones
Leave our good still hearts alone
Take the excuses, the little lies you tell yourself to sleep at night
Give us peace and let us live
I have not one single shit to give
Take your words and take your stones
And leave our good sweethearts alone
Take the excuses, those little lies you love to tell yourself at night
Give us peace and let us live
I have not one single shit to give

Daisy
03:02
|

Dark night, hot day
I walk your way
Down streets, up paths
Won't stop, can't start
To think, to dream what might be seen
We'd fight, you'd say
Doesn't matter anyway
I crushed the daisy in my hand
It's not gift I thought it was
I know it's wrong
To sing your song
But it's stuck for years
Brought up old fears
I'm great at this
Don't try, resist
Walk your arse home
You're not alone
I picked the daisy up from someone else's garden
And threw it down the drain

Still
03:06
|

You go walking light through the forest
The quiet resting snow is there for now
Waiting white to be disrupted
And you drift past it without a second glance
Waiting for the world to be still
Cos you've been running through every dream you've ever had
Just to turn back round and see
Nobody's chasing you
They're still
You're tethered to the hitch, like silver pieces
They're wrapped around his careful little fingers
Waiting for the other shoe to drop
Double-back and take off home to Grandma's house
Cape blowing in the breeze
Waiting for her to leave it all to you
Cos you've been running through every dream you've ever had
Just to turn back round and see
Nobody's chasing you
They're still

Warrior With No Teeth
03:42
|

I've got a pocketful of change to feed the meter
But not enough to change my name
And if you've got a hope in hell to change me
What hope I have to stay the same
I've had years of practice at this thing
I've aced my thesis, rode the gown
And if you've got a hope in hell to change me
You'll have to set fire to this town
It's hard to feel full when you're empty
It's hard to feel alive when you're dead
It's hard to feed the soul of an animal
Who's sooner bleeding than bled
Well I'm the warrior who went to fight without her teeth
Who's to say I won't find a musket there
And if we've got a hope in hell to change me
We'd better split this difference fair
It's hard to feel full when you're empty
It's hard to feel alive when you're dead
It's hard to feed the soul of an animal
Who's sooner bleeding than bled
I'm better when I'm sleeping
More focused than awake
Take to new tasks with the reckless abandon
Of someone with better things to do
You might be a better thing to do
It's hard to feel full when you're empty
It's hard to feel alive when you're dead
It's hard to feed the soul of an animal
Who's sooner bleeding than bled
