lyrics

It’s Friday night and I’m under the covers,
With a hardback book about star- crossed lovers.
Depends on the night – what tickles my fancy;
The Female Eunuch or flicking through Banksy?

Other people are out on the town,
Loading up on shots and getting down
But it don’t fuss me ‘cause I’m tucked up cosy
Cuppa in my hand enough cheese for a toastie

Oliver Sachs, chilling with Viv Albertine,
Why waste my time just flipping through a magazine?
Worlds to discover, between the sheets,
The lyrical genius of Tempest and Keates.

Oh it’s easy to see why people would mock me
Staying in with Bran and that mysterious heart tree,
Don’t get me wrong, when I go, I go hard…..
But sometimes I’m happier with beadle the bard.

So I turn on my lamp, and switch off my phone
Don’t need company, I’m fine on my own
It might seem dull on the face of it,
But life moves fast and I don’t give a shit.
What you think of what I’m missing
There’s plenty time for piss ups and kissing
So sorry son, but I’m not conceding
‘cause tonight’s the night
For bedtime reading.
