Recorded live at The Hug and Pint, Glasgow

I want your features 
And your statue stare 
I want you presence 
And your top tail hair 

I want a mug shot
 in the shape of you 
Give me a room but not with a view 

I want a photograph 
Of billy blue jean 
I want it all
Every bit that I see 

I want a mugshot 
In the shape of you 
Give me a room but not with a view 

I don't care about this stone cold city
I want your mother and i want her pretty

I want you ugly, i want you in debt
I want you to want to, to want to forget
I want you early, i want you late
I want your indifference, and i want your hate

I want your fire to burn me to dust
I want you to tell me youve got me sussed
I want your friction i want your sin
I want your teeth marks under my skin

I dont care about this stone cold city
I want your father and i want him pretty 

Wanting is yearning is needing is bleeding
Would you bleed if i ask? Id never ask
But if you would task me, to open wounds, id oblige in ways i cant describe with words
Here in verse, im trapped by romantic cliches, each says, something i dont need it to say, there must be a way, but with each passing day, it seems less likely to me, that the way i burn will ever be better described than by the flame that sucks oxygen from lungs, and makes tongues touch tongues, if we could only be so young, as young as i want us to be

I don't care about this stone cold city
I want your mother and i want her pretty
