Boys with guitars
think that they are all fucking rock stars
Treat you like a bag of shit
Then try to get you to suck their dick
Boys with guitars
Never seem to be there
when you need them the most
Unless you offered a spit roast
No need to commit to you
They're always flying to timbuctoo
Boys with guitars
think that they are fucking rock stars
Treat you like a bag of shit
Then try to get you to suck their dick
Boys with guitars
Ever since he went to school
heβs been put on a pedestal
Had the girls acting crazy
so he thinks he's special for the ladies
Boys with guitars
think that they are fucking rock stars
Treat you like a bag of shit
Then try to get you to suck their dick
He believes his lies all the time
Because he thinks he's prophesied
Thinking that heβs god damn deep
But heβs judging you when you queef
Boys with guitars
think that they are fucking rock stars
Treat you like a bag of shit
They try to get you to suck their dick
Boys with guitars
think that they are fucking rock stars
Treat you like a bag of shit
Then try to get you to suck their dick

People Come & People Go

People come and people go
Life is often spent alone
no one can really know
when it's their turn to go
Tried your best to put me in line
things come back wait some time
Did you think I didnβt see
What was happening to me
Days where turning grey
Flowers to decay
I knew I had to run away
Weβve only got so many days
People come and people go
Life is often spent alone
no one can really know
when it's their turn to go
People come and people go
Life is often spent alone
no one can really know
when it's their turn to go
It always seems the good die young
everyone could shine like the sun
When you leave it's clear to see
Rippled waves is a tendency
Rosemary by the grave
These things we sustain
life moves to another plane
Happy to remove the chains
remove the chains
remove the chains
remove the chains

Sometimes when Iβm feeling blue
I look back and I think about you
miss those days
those early days
when I didnβt know your cruel and cold ways
Some moments that we shared
pointed us to where we should stare
but things have gone beyond repair
Those times will always stay
encapsulated in memories play
Iβm sure soon enough
I'll see your face again
In my dreams again
And we will meet again
And maybe weβll still be friends
Sometimes when Iβm feeling blue
I look back and I think about you
miss those days
those early days
When I didnβt know your cruel and cold ways

Limbo State
03:01
|
|

Thought the play was over
the songs I sang for you
Hopes n dreams crash sober
too much weight for two
There was a place to rest my head
the two of us stuck In bed
Where nothing really happens
where nothing really moves
Waiting for the rains to come
Like the sound of a drum
Stuck inside a waiting place
that all familiar limbo state
Mumma told me not to look back
no doubt it will be a trap
When birds wings don't flap
they walk around like rats
Love deluded he feels excluded
rituals set in stone walking on tiptoes
dogs they loose bones bowels they catch crones
Time flyβs when the digital rise
in her sins she must baptise
for there's an object and there's prize
But these things go on the fly
Thought the play was over
the songs I sang for you
Hopes n dreams crash sober
too much to weight for two

I've Been Wrong
03:23

Iβm just trying to stay real in the game
but all of these parasites crawl through my veins
images everywhere penetrate my brain
it causes me to go fucking insane
Iβve been wrong so many times
Iβve been wrong so many times
Iβve made mistakes
I count dozens
donβt often wait
too persistent
I talked a lot
things said untrue
I felt abused
forgot about the toffee
taste of burnt coffee
Iβm just trying to stay real in the game
But all of these parasites crawl through my veins
imagers everywhere penetrate my brain
it causes me to go fucking insane
sometimes silence seems so loud
itβs like being lost in a crowd
I know I can be over proud
I guess I try to be profound

Wonder Why
04:14
|
|

Spending time wondering why
Why so many tears to cry
just try and let it go
Until I take another blow
into the depths of my sorrow I flow
Flow
I wonder why
Down the tunnel I start to fall
But heck well Iβve been here before
Gasping for air
I feel so small
Look in the mirror
And see that same seed
Knowing that iβll never be freed
you live inside of me
Me
I wonder why
Why there were so many lies
Dragging out goodbyes
thereβs nowhere left to hide
thereβs nowhere left to hide
Giving the characters all the same roll
Always playing out of that hole
With so much anger
You tend to feel sad
like you were robbed
before you could stand
Two black birds flew to the right
two white birds flew to the left
Its was a beautiful sight
Makes you think itβs all alright
They say these things are signs
That somewhere there is a light
Write out these words
To try and make sense
To try to survive
In the chaos that's left
I look to the right I look to the left
there's no one there
you already left
Left
I wonder why

Black Hills
03:00

lost my heart in the black hills
the black hills where I wanna go
go together like spinach and cheese
Then we rise to the next degree
so much better than smoking green
giving up a life of greed
Babe Iβm shaking Iβm shaking all over
saw you shining like a supernova
It's so clear everything is here
when Iβm rocking in your atmosphere
oh starry starry starry night
how you sparkle oh so bright
used to be in such a fright
but now Iβm gilding like a meteorite
Never really understood love
in awe of what lies above
As something as true as you
must be more than just a fluke
Hear the voice of the mystic mountains
The sirens they are drowning
Donβt need no outer space
All I gotta do is look at your face
Babe Iβm shaking Iβm shaking all over
saw you shining like a supernova
It's so clear everything is here
when Iβm rocking in your atmosphere
oh starry starry starry night
how you sparkle of so bright
used to be in such a fright
Now Iβm gilding like a meteorite
To love so strong you must be brave
You could leave any day
Its a price I can pay
Just to hold you through the rain
Who's to know what's beyond the veil
must have faith or the heart goes frail
Who's to know what's beyond the veil
must have hope the heart goes frail
Who's to know what's beyond the veil
must have faith or the heart goes frail
Who's to know what's beyond the veil
must have hope the heart goes frail

Dan does a great job of writing lyrics that are as hilarious as they are beautiful and moving. I keep coming back to this understated little album in my dark hours and discover more depth every time. For barebones 4 track recordings these songs are somehow epic and full. I saw Dan live at the Tote front bar in 2020 and he was just as captivating!

This whole album sounds so original and refreshing. The subjects of their songs touch on so many facets of our daily lives inc going to centrelink!!! Also note that my vinyl pressing of this album is far superior than most other indie releases.
