They called the cops at four in the afternoon They wore leather jackets To make them look intimidating The noise complaint it pissed us off a bit I guess a 50 watt amp doesn't belong in Jesmond you are answers and i'm just questions you know everything and i'm just guessing It's okay to watch the TV and sleep all day It's okay to be going nowhere, but out of your mind and some days, all you'll do is sleep But that's fine I feel so out of place in university Because i'm so unorganised and lacking the motivation to do anything but play a six string I guess I'll never amount to anything But you are answers and i'm just questions you know everything and i'm just guessing it's okay to watch the TV and sleep all day It's okay to be going nowhere but out of your mind and some days all you'll do is sleep but that's fine

Coffee Cups 02:55
I'm pretty sure there's mold growing in the coffee cup beside my bed, and i'm pretty sure that I am stagnant too, There's piles of clothes, there's photo frames, there's a beer beside my bed And i'm pretty sure this is how life is now Playing songs to five people on a dive bar stage Singing songs about singing songs about the songs that I play Trying to make something meaningful out of the mess I call my life And my car is full of maccas wrappers and empty cans of redbull There's camp cope on the radio and I'm sitting next to you It's not the healthiest lifestyle but it's the one that I choose I'm pretty sure this is how life is now Playing songs to five people on a dive bar stage Singing songs about singing songs about the songs that I play Trying to make something meaningful out of the mess I call my life (SOLO) Playing songs to five people on a dive bar stage Singing songs about singing songs about the songs that I play Trying to make something meaningful out of the mess I call my life x2

She wraps her hands across her chest so that they might leave her alone She walks quietly with her head down and pretends to be on her phone "It's just a joke, it's a compliment, it's just because they like her" They're full of shit, it's primitive, it's just to stay on top It's about time that we end this shit That we stop putting up with it I'm not laughing with you I'm not laughing with you And if a bloke says something back he's a f*****, he's too soft Nothing could be stronger than victimising a woman, Well fuck that off, i'll cop that tag, i'll not sit down, I'll not shut up It's about time that we end this shit That we stop putting up with it I'm not laughing with you I'm not laughing with you
