If They come in the morning.

Sinister times.

Chasing happiness like a butterfly that knows exactly where the good stuff is during a warm sunny day

Give It A Try

This isn't my bed 
Those aren't my clothes
Whose on the wall are those holiday photos
Nevermind the cuddly bear, the floral dresser
And the drawer full of underwear?
There's the 'Be Happy' heart
By the window with the view of the bins in the courtyard
And the doormat of 'Home Sweet Home'
Where we barely wipe our feet before it's time to go 

And if you want to climb the ladder
We can sublet our rungs
You can rent my heart and let my bladder
You can start a lease on my lungs

They have no taste in furnishings
There's a big deposit so we can't burn everything
Or sell it to pay the rent
Even the rubber duck should be unscratched at the end
When the landlady comes to view any stains in the oven 
After her trip round Peru
And our journey starts where it began
Travelling round the city in the back of a transit van

And if you want to climb the ladder
We can sublet your rungs
You can rent my heart and let my bladder
You can start a lease on my lungs

Subletting

Al Chamberlain is a north-western English songwriter who lives in Brighton. Compared lyrically to Jarvis Cocker, Alan Bennett and the Montgolfier Brothers, he writes simple songs about the words that tell the stories that paint the pictures that paint a thousand words.

"...poised vocals, understated production, immaculate guitar technique and eloquent songwriting" - Tom Robinson, BBC6 Music

"Chamberlain’s lyrics are leagues above your standard run-of-the-mill singer-songwriter, with all of the wit and understated poeticism of Jarvis Cocker" - Sam Lee, Fresh on the Net

"Better 'n most stuff I hear" - Micah P. Hinson
