[Verse 1] Promise never to let you down Promise never to walk away I will stay with you, play on your side Together you and I always remain For I have rosy eyes for you [Verse 2] Promise never abandon you Promise never to say goodbye So reminding you, come what may, No matter choices choose, or self deny Know I have rosy eyes for you [Chorus] And I will say it loud so you may know Stand out from the crowd so you may see I'm always here for you Know you always part of me [Verse 3] Promise never to judgement pass Promise never to path prescribe Though forget today, hold open door Remember you are mine and I am yours And I have rosy eyes for you

[Chorus v1] Unnecessary necessity Survive to resurrect normality My frivolous [Verse 1] My shop until drop Saturday consumerism My natural world disconnection Covid hair style wave good riddance [Verse 2] My keeping up with Joneses life, my superficial My pint inside my favourite pub My cosy social isolation [Chorus v2] Unnecessary necessity Survive just to regress, lesson unlearn Progress undo [Verse 3] My non-essential fundamental pet addictions My blame-game playing parliamentary Finger pointing politicians [Chorus v3] Unnecessary necessity Survive just to resume my prejudice Other dismiss [Instrumental] [Chorus v4] Unnecessary necessity Survive to keep alive my us and them My might is right [Verse 3] Drop bomb on Palestine again in name of defence Brand anti-semite who complain Thank God for covid vaccination ;) [Spoken word outro] You can tell COVID's on the back foot. The politicians are bickering again, ASBOs are on the rise, air pollution is back up, and the bombs are falling on Palestine. What are we so keen to return to? Today we may have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to massively reset what we consider important. Look sharp, that opportunity window is closing fast!

Goddess 05:17
lyrics

Verse 1 Some just want to believe Even when they ain't sure They don't care if it's True or false any more Verse 2 Then they argue they're right Only see black and white Can't accommodate Shades of grey in their life Bridge (v.1) So if you pass them on the road again Forgive you jump to concluding they're lost And don't know what or where or when Verse 3 Some people live a lie But they always deny Dump their stuff on you When you question their view Repeat Bridge (v.2) And when they pass you on the road again Forgive them jump to concluding you're lost And don't know who or why or when Chorus But when she smiles We all celebrate it The way she shines You better believe it And when she moves We see she bewilders all Verse 4 Some people they pretend They don't wanna be real Hear them say it's okay I just wanna feel Verse 5 Some people wanna judge So they discriminate Right from wrong they believe They're speaking for God Bridge (v.3) And when they pass me on the road again Forgive them jump to concluding I'm lost And don't know how or if or when Repeat Chorus

There Is No Should 04:03
lyrics
buy track
Verse 1 Do you really believe That social norms preserve truth? That they are more than fleeting? That they will stay for all time? Verse 2 Do you really believe That this is all you can be? That there's no more than you see? I think you may-be-ing used Chorus For there is no should unless you want it There is no must unless you choose There's only stuff they place upon you to serve them Verse 3 Do you really believe That businesses care for you? That governments they should lead? I think you may-be-ing used Repeat Chorus Instrumental Verse 4 Do you really believe That religions possess truth? That they don't want to control? I think you may-be-ing used Repeat Chorus
