D'jap

lyrics:

Is the glass half full
Or half empty, bull
The glass is too big
And I took a swig

Now it's in my veins
And I'm feeling the pains
Of post-ironic memes
Of monocultural teams

Writin' their minor songs
Discrete dabs, no passin' bongs
Let me play you this one
This is serious anti-fun

I've been drinkin' that Gen Z pee
It's problematic just talkin' to me
All I did was mention a Beatles tune
And your angry ass decorated the room

I've been drinkin' that Gen Z pee
But maybe I should spend more time in the street
I've got a sign with two sides, scrawled
Just tryin' to see you, I'm gonna crawl

Just attempt to conceive
What privacy may relieve
Tyranny of the self
A manic grandmother elf

Those prior problematics
Now fermenting spaztics
Your songs ain't so bad
Just call 'em all "I'm Sad"

Poor you
The poor things

I've been drinkin' that Gen Z pee
Now I'm mired in madness, clipped speech intensity
I fixed up the house, I cleaned the toilet
But you didn't stick around long enough to soil it

Hope I didn't spoil your party (What party?)
I've just been listenin' to Jen's E.P.
Me and that girl, I mean, honestly, like, for me
In my opinion, personally, it's like, seriously
For me, I mean

Gen Z Pee (or, Jen's E.P.) [P×2 Demo]

‘Will we be fools again’ 
Written in September 2023 after standing in a queue in Starbucks, looking out at a wet, dirty and declining High Street.  I had been been watching the people in town, including one particular couple locked into an intense conversation under an umbrella. They prompted the story in the song. 

I wanted the backing to be sparser and more guitar led to give it an edge. I also wanted the instrumental in the middle to have a woozy, emotional feel to it. 

It’s a song about everyday people ‘stuff’ against a backdrop of a slowly deteriorating townscape. It couldn’t be slick (and I couldn’t be no matter how hard I try!) I hope you enjoy the song. Best with headphones! 

Take care

James (lyrics below) 

Will we be fools again? 

The chewing gum looks like leopard spots on the pavements in the rain
And litter blocks the drains again

Recklessly, we agreed to meet, after these silent years
Now there’s excitement and fear!

Behind the wall, by the social club, an old sanctuary for lovers 

We’ll talk, we’ll laugh 
and then I’ll start to think 
will we be fools again?
Will we be fools again? 

Graffiti on the empty shops, can our town survive?
And meanwhile we destabilise our lives! 

What fools we’d be, to lift the lid and let those lies escape 
Just think of all the hearts we’d break 

But we’re in your car, the radio’s on, as we unwrap the past! 

That smile! Those eyes!
Make me start to think
Will we be fools again?
Will we be fools again?

I’m aware, yeah I’m aware, 
I know where my fault lines are
And you’re spread right across them!  
Right across them.. yeah!

Instrumental 

Yes, we’ll talk, we’ll laugh
You know I’ll start to think
Let us be fools again
Please let us be fools again

Yes, we’ll touch, we’ll kiss
And then the path is clear
For us fools again
Let us be fools again….please, please..

James Whiteman September 2023

Will we be fools again?

Home
Melodic
Ballet new
Bring back the nymphs
At the center of our wandering dreams
While purring prayers
Our furs dotted with stars
A few daisies between the lips
Gems in our shoes
Lying on the layer of the horizon
Your scratch in the heart
Again
Hatch the dawn
And kiss the abyss

Kiss The Abyss

When I make music, I often think of the people who have gone...
