STAR MACHINE

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Been thinking of building a ship to the stars
Found plans made in fourth grade should get me that far
Jesus she says I know what you mean
I’ll make you then take you my flying machine
I’m over exposure
I need to levitate
Above this experience
I need to find a way today for far away
There’s a simple explanation
For the trouble that we’re in
The shed light on all night
The work noise outside
The belief in relief found somewhere to hide
Jesus she says I know what you mean
Don’t be scared just prepared
My flying machine

Pre Chorus
Chorus
Meander
Chorus

I’ve set the date take off’s tonight
My star machine takes flight

FALL DOWN

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Thought police have busted in
And broken up and stolen almost everything
They’ve a job to do a special mission
To reinstate their point of view
It’s in with the old order out with the new

They’re the guys that wrote that song
That’s been playing on the airwaves all day long
It’s a catchy tune hummable melody
And you can’t drive it from your brain
It’s got a chorus that repeats over and over again

Window, opportunity
I got a message and it comes for free
There’s another way that way is real
But you just won’t get it till the walls fall down

JERKS OF ATTENTION (2015 REMASTER)

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Verse 1:
There is no pain, my bodies drained
I never should of had that fourth slice straight
We gathered round, the lost and found
But my jerks of attention let me down

Pre-Chorus:
Well I took the first one,
And I pulled it back.
And what was once green
Had all turned black, had all turned black
And there was nothing left to say.

Chorus:
I’m ten foot tall, the world’s so small
I know it all when I’m wasted
What you see, inside of me
Has been set free when I’m wasted, wasted.

Verse 2:
I’m getting there, my constant stare
And I don’t think I’ll move from this chair
We’ve got them both, Archers of loaf
And the Stone Roses in the stereo

Pre-Chorus
Chorus x 2

Wasted, wasted
Wasted, wasted

Chorus

I don’t want to be straight, don’t want to be straight
I don’t want to be wasted, wasted, wasted, don’t

ANIMAL

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Make the most of opportunity, nothings free, nothings free
And don’t believe everything that you see
It may not be quite what you believed

Oh I know everything that I do tonight
Means nothing if I don’t succeed

My highlight desire while ecstasy
Filling me
Let intentions out so openly
It’s not crazy, just chemistry

Oh I know everything that I do tonight
Means nothing if I don’t succeed
I’m insufferable when I’m in heat
It’s my animal, animal.
I’m insufferable when I’m in heat
It’s my animal, animal

Animal Instinct

Make the most of opportunity, nothings free, nothings free
And don’t believe everything that you see
It may not be quite what you believed

Oh I know everything that I do tonight
Means nothing if I don’t succeed
I’m insufferable when I’m in heat
It’s my animal, animal.
I’m insufferable when I’m in heat
It’s my animal, animal

CONTROL

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

We were doin’ fine
We had everything, the stars and the sunshine
Drinking liquor from the neck of the day time
From the city to the sea
There was nothing that could hold us back
Falling like the rain for each other
With the hope of a slow train
Memories grew older than smoke stains
There was something going on that
Nothing in the world could change
Where do I go now?
‘Cos I don’t wanna be in control
Where do I go now?
‘Cos I don’t wanna be in control
I don’t wanna be in control again
I don’t wanna be in control
I don’t wanna be in control again
Playing in the sand
Thinking everything we held in our good hands
Was immune to all the stuff that you can’t plan
Now I’m trying to understand
The good to come with moving on
Where do I go now?
‘Cos I don’t wanna be in control
I don’t wanna be in control again
I don’t wanna be in control
I don’t wanna be in control again
I’ll kick my plans to the side of the road
I wanna live more but I can’t let go
I wanna live more
But I can’t let go
Where do I go now?
‘Cos I don’t wanna be in control
I don’t wanna be in control again
I don’t wanna be in control
I don’t wanna be in control again
Never in control

LEAVING HOME

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Verse 1:
Were you laughed at by your friends And were you lost for words when everybody finally told you what they thought
You can’t keep up with the trend It makes you lose but somehow everybody always makes up in the end
Oh, was it something that I ate
Oh, didn’t even touch my plate
Oh, suddenly I’m feeling great
Do you like me now

Chorus:
Leaving home, life was never good to me
Leaving home, I smell the morning air
Leaving home, life was never good
You can work it out we’re leaving home

Verse 2:
I could hear them through the door
As people came in laughing at the way they acted when they were alone
And an argument can start with nothing more than this
To be the light and leave you standing on your own
Oh, am I doing it again
Oh, I’m a loser now and then
Oh, and I smile at everything
Do you like me now

Chorus

Verse 3:
Hope I like the life I find when I leave everything behind
I hope I’m sure I’ve made my mind to go and leave home

Chorus

FIRST TIME

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

There’s a first time for everything
You don’t have to be the alter boy to sing
There’s a last time for nothing
Until you die of course in which case there may be

But I’m holding on to the learning and the reading I’ve been doing
About what awaits us on the other side

There’s a first time for everything
So if you want it don’t be shy girl just jump in
You might find out if you do nothing
You’ll regret it for as long as you’re living

And I know that it’s not easy to believe in what I’m saying
But if we’re gonna make it we just gotta try

When on a losing streak day will everything wind up ok?
This could be the end of the line or this could be just like our first time
I’ve been a fool for so long
Could something so right be so wrong?
This could be the end of the line
Let’s make it just like our first time

And I know that it’s not easy to believe me, lord knows I agree
To the point where I can’t even believe it myself
Believe it myself
But if you do I will
But if you do, yeah if you do
There’ll be a first time!

SHE’S LIKE A COMET

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Starting a fire
Secret admirers
Stolen exchanges
Measured denial
I hope you come around

Coming and going
Every moment
Falls through the sky
Erupting and glowing
I hope you come around
I hope you come around

Just like something
Comes out of nothing
She ain’t the done thing
Yeah she’s different

Nervous and twitching
Sparks and emissions
Keeping a finger
On the ignition
I hope you come around

Brother to sister
Sister to brother
Far and away
Orbiting each other
I hope you come around
I hope you come around

Just like something
Comes out of nothing
She ain’t the done thing
Yeah she’s different

Oh she’s like a comet
Oh she’s like a comet
Oh she’s like a comet
Yeah she’s different

Nervous and twitching
Sparks and emissions
Keeping her finger
On the ignition
I hope you come around

Coming and going
Every moment
Falls through the sky
Erupting and glowing
I hope you come around
I hope you come around

Just like something
Comes out of nothing
She ain’t the done thing
Yeah she’s different

Oh she’s like a comet
Oh she’s like a comet
Oh she’s like a comet
Yeah she’s different

Yeah she’s different
Yeah she’s different
Yeah she’s different

HARPOON

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Verse 1:
This will take some explaining but I think you will agree
There is no use pretending that there’s hope for you and me

Chorus:
And I love her, but do you think she can see
When I tell her, it’s the end for you and me
It was over, ever since you went and shot me
Like a harpoon, Like a harpoon, Like a harpoon in my heart
Like a harpoon, Like a harpoon in my heart

Verse 2:
Yeah I can handle the fighting, it’s the affection I can’t stand
And I don’t mind us talking, just don’t try and touch my hand

Chorus

Verse 3:
When you left I didn’t want you back
But now your gone so won’t you come right back
Come right back x 5

Chorus

Why does it hurt
Simple matters don’t seem worth
We’re the same but it’s not happening again

Chorus

PLEASE LEAVE

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Those things you said are getting to me
I close my eyes so I couldn’t see
I’m used to all the crap you dish out
I know exactly what it’s about

You didn’t want to come across the sea
Dragged by your hair, it got worse you got me
Now everything is cool up until when
Accidently screw up your life again x 4

It’s not that I don’t want you around
But you act as if we’re bringing you down
Maybe you don’t have the guts to go
Maybe you just don’t want me to know

Chorus

During the last Chorus Kevin sings:

You can’t blame us for everything
When lives come down you’ll probably leave
So pack your bags and take your time
To leave, to leave, to leave
And someday when you think of me
Remember how I was happy
Until the day I learned to see
Please leave, please leave, please leave

MILITARY STRONGMEN

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Verse 1:
I’m on parade, you don’t say: why can’t you see that
Keeping my feelings at bay: why can’t you see that when
When you’re around, you just get me down, I’m better off without you x 2
I’m just better off

Verse 2:
All of the years add up to: why can’t you see that
Something has happened to you: why can’t you see that when
When you’re around, you just get me down, I’m better off without you x 4
You just get me down
It’s not me, it can’t be I’d rather leave
It’s getting hard, to be a part of what is around

Is this the situation of the time
If so you can have yours, I want mine
I know there’s something better you could be
Now I am past caring, completely

When you’re around, you just get me down, I’m better off without you x 4

TRACKSUIT

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015
Well I don’t want to make things bad
But these last few weeks are the worst I’ve had
And that’s really sad, it’s really sad, you know – woah!

Because I knew what we were gonna say
And I didn’t want it to end that way
Like on a winters day, but that’s okay
Because I’ve got my tracksuit ready on

Don’t give me your friends
Yeah they’re driving me round the bend
I just wanted some time alone
So we could sort this thing out, lifes a rolling stone

So I’ll take you for an elephant ride
And I’ll show you things that I feel inside
Yeah that’s what I’ll do, cos I like you
And I don’t wanna let things slide

Aaaaahhhhhhh…….

So I hope everything’s alright
Because I know I won’t see you tonight
I just turn out the light and fall asleep
Without a peep

And when I wake up with my tracksuit on
Well then I’ll know that you’ve been away too long
So I’ll play a song, I’ll play a song
And I’ll dedicate it just for you

Can we still be friends
Yeah that’s all that we’ve got in the end
But I’ve been secretly holding out
That some day you will say you want more than that

So I’ll take you for an elephant ride
And I’ll show you things that I feel inside
Yeah that’s what I’ll do, cos I like you
And I don’t wanna let things slide

Aaaaahhhhhhh…….

FEET TOUCH THE GROUND

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

So I thought the worst was over
When my heart stopped beating again
And the weak side of my body has come undone
Through trusting them
So we walked into the building
Took the lift to the third floor
Pain lies behind that door what am I to do now?
When what they tell me is just what they sell me
And I know to be realistic
Will save me from the shock to come
Any fool believes what you tell them
Happiness is being dumb
So we listened to the experts
Everyone needs some kind of guide to help them
See deep inside what am I to do now?
When what they tell me is just what they sell me
And it’s not the truth but I’m not calming down
Till my feet touch the ground
So I thought the worst was over
When my heart stopped beating again
And the weak side of my body doubled up
I’m never trusting them
So don’t listen to the experts
Cos I’ve seen they don’t know anything
Can you hear the truth ring what am I to do now?

Chorus
Break
Chorus

IT’S OVER

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015
Long ago in days gone by
It was much simpler for the guy
And when The Cure sang “Boy’s don’t cry”
I said I had something in my eye

You were right when you said I was wrong
It’s over

And right before the storm I told you everything
I know thats not good form but feeling is the most peculiar sport
I might get bored but I could never tell you that it’s over

Spent too long staring out for stars
I lost control and crashed my car
I hadn’t even got that far
Left my good fortune at the bar

You were right when you said I was wrong
It’s over

And right before the storm I told you everything
I know that’s not good form but feeling is the most peculiar sport
I might get bored but I could never tell that it’s over

It’s over.

MONUMENT

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Verse 1:
I’m really gonna pack in this new job I do
It’s gonna be the death of me
I went to a party of some girl that I knew
At least the alcohol was free
With all the family around
We couldn’t find a common ground
And so we left with what we found
When we first came so

Chorus:
Where you been, where you been, where’d you go
Leaving me alone and feeling low
I’m supposed to be the one you want
I’m supposed to be the one you want

Verse 2:
I’m supposed to be the one you want
I know that I don’t earn one hundred points in bed
But will you love me anyway
It’s just that there’s so much going on in my head
That I don’t know what to say
Your car rolled away out of sight
You can not leave without a fight
Okay you lose so we were right
When we first came so

Chorus x 2

YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS BRAVE

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Verse 1:
Yesterday when I was brave I didn’t fold I didn’t cave
Gave freedom to every slave I’d ever harboured
Yesterday when I was strong I made a right of every wrong
That had been around so long I’d just got used to

Chorus:
Where do you go?
Who do you keep running from?
The world has only kept you down
Where do you go?
Who do you keep running from?
The world has only kept you down

Verse 2:
Yesterday when I was brave I saw a future I could save
Nothing else stood in my way could ever stop me
Yesterday anything was a possibility because I believed and so it was that nothing broke me

Chorus

Verse 1

Chorus

MORE ALONE

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

I’ve been doing the strangest dreaming
I left not knowing where I was going
And you’re so misty and I’m so twisted by the way I feel
I’m spinning like a wheel
My love is so surreal
Walked for ages through different stages
Of all my failures and past disclaimers
And in this city being lost aint pretty like it used to be
Now when my mind is free
Things get on top of me

Oh, I’m more alone when I’m with you
There, you got me

There’s no hiding the future’s riding
On coming clean with the past I’m fighting
Cos when you’re with me I’m forced to see me as I really am
I’m not s’posed to be thinking of you
At least not this way but now it’s too late
And you’re so misty and I’m so messed up in this reverie
I’m never gonna be all that I hoped I’d be

Oh, I’m more alone when I’m with you
There, you got me

I’m done with holding out for the sky
Opportunity passes me by
Cos it’s true you don’t think of me
The way I think of you
Come on admit it it’s true

Oh, I’m more alone when I’m with you
There, you got me

TEFLON

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

We were going along
To a particular song
Just hanging around
Feet scuffing the ground
Catching us on a roll
We were collecting the dole
Doesn’t mean something’s wrong

We were just slipping along
Slipping along
Slipping along
Yeah
Slipping along

At a party we found
People hanging around
There was nothing to do
We were smoking a few
Saw two girls outside
They were both pretty wired
I thought something was wrong
But they were just getting it on

Slipping along
Yeah
Slipping along
1, 2, 3, 4
So long, I’m slipping on, and on
Yeah

We were going along
To a particular song
Just hanging around
Feet scuffing the ground
Catching us on roll
We were collecting the dole
Doesn’t mean something’s wrong

We were just slipping along
Slipping along
Slipping along
Yeah
Slipping along
1, 2, 3, 4
So long, I’m slipping on, and on
Yeah

LOST MY NERVE

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

On a whim or some fancy
You take me out and you break me
I don’t fit in I feel stupid
Give me a break ‘cos I told you man

I’m fuckin’ sick of listening
To some rich kids
Playing on their guitars
Their guitars
Their guitars

Tonight.
TOnight, yeah…

Should I yell from the rafters?
Or should I silently yield?
Should I say what I’m thinking?
Or should I hide how I feel?

‘Cos I’m sick of listenin’
To all them big men
Banging on their drums
On their drums
On their drums
On their drums

I really lost my nerve tonight
I really lost my nerve

Tonight.
Tonight, yeah

I really lost my nerve tonight
I really lost my nerve

Tonight,
Tonight,
Tonight, yeah

RUN OF THE COMPANY

ALBUM: TWENTY, 2015

Believe what you will they’ll take your honesty still
Honoured Chairman of the Board picking the scraps off the floor
Desperate for more it’s corporate law when spirits fall
They’ll own our souls.
It’s all that we know, in everything that we say
It’s everyday of our lives, born to a loss of control (control)

I dream daily, humans are commodities
One day you’ll see, run of the company

You don’t realise till it’s in front of your eyes
When your inside of the plan
Answering all to the man

Chorus x 2
