Well it’s the blind leading the blind
but you gotta cruel to be kind
Where is the child that smiled?
Where is the child that smiled?
Well it’s the blind leading the blind
(I can’t see, you can’t see)
but you gotta cruel to be kind
(take it from me, take it from me)
Where is the child that smiled?
(where is he? where is he?)
Where is the child that smiled?
(where is she, where is she?)
Will you follow me, along?
Will you carry me?
Will you follow me, along?
Will you carry me? Your page of wands?
Now I’m six feet down
And I’ve finished my rounds
Check my pocket and under my tongue
Do I hold that golden son?
Will you follow me, along?
Will you carry me?
Will you follow me, along?
Will you carry me? Your page of wands?
Your page of wands

Gold leaf
Catch the light
Match your voice
Are you having a good night?
No-one told you
How to be a boy
Except the ones
You were right to avoid
Performance, Performance, Performance
Performance, Performance, Performance
Performance, Performance, Performance
Performance, Performance, Performance
"Scrubs up!"
Don’t drop the ball
Settle on something
Once and for all
I’m early for the disco
I’m freaking out in Coles
Left my heart in San Francisco
My lungs in Montreal
Performance, Performance, Performance
Performance, Performance, Performance
Performance, Performance, Performance
Performance, Performance, Performance
Looking at your own face
Looking at your own face
It's looking kinda strange now
It's looking kinda strange

Only Connect

Slogging with you in the mud
Feeling life inside the blood
Grubby angels, feathers tangled
Meet you at an obtuse angle
Choke the words I ought to say
Keep the honest thoughts at bay
Fall into the yawning pit
In between the words and it
Was so indirect
It’s what I’ve come to expect
(Ooh, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh)
I’ll second guess and deflect
I only wanna connect
With you
Close enough but not too far
Baby you can drive my car
Drive us to the ziggurat
Bite me like a vampire bat
Not a question of romance
Just something in this weird expanse
Real, unfiltered, apropos
to finally letting go
But it was so indirect
So circumspect
(Ooh, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh)
We are a doppler effect
I only wanna connect
With you
The internet it looks so beautiful tonight
Deep sea tapestry joined by a billion flashing lights
But a campfire mystic said my life is an illusion
Hence my confusion
And then I woke up wrecked
And put my nerves on cassette
For who?
(Ooh ooh ooh)
Try not to overcorrect
I only wanna connect
With you

Wrong All Along
02:12
|

Cobbled convictions, patchwork creed
Syllables to live by and sew the seed
A nagging doubt in the dead of night
The alternative might be right
What if I was wrong all along?
I’m not like them, I’m ok
A little cloudy but I’m finding my way
No church, a question mark
Might be voices in the dark, and I guess
Non-violence, reform
I wasn’t anyone before I was born
Hard science, soft power and a
Plant-based diet and a meteor shower, but
What if I was wrong all along?

Life of Leisure
03:42

After every next breath comes a bigger yell
Get it out, get it out, get it out
Spraying dirt and smoke as we dig our heels
into the ground, in the ground, in the ground
I’m refreshing my browser, I’m running late
for the round, for the round, for the round
Follow our shadows to the starting gate
Hear the sound, hear the sound, hear the sound
But we may never, ever, ever live a life of leisure
Our parents' dreams never looked so good
Come around, come around, come around
Quit the circus for a simmering neighbourhood
Settle down, settle down, settle down
I’m alone at the bowser with the radio on,
it crackles out “how soon is now?”
I’m a bird of paradise, drinking patron
and I’m talking to the ceiling
But we may never, ever, ever live a life of leisure
Spare moments turn into instruments
Document the evidence: I’m having a blast,
Feeling: loose bolts on a runaway train
Catch our breath, hit refresh
Again and again and again and again and
Never, ever, ever live a life of leisure
