[Chorus]
Girl, it’s so surprising sometimes to find new love
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, it’s so surprising sometimes to find new love
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, how does it feel just to meet on that train?
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, how does it feel just to meet on that train?
Girl, girl
Man, I don’t know, I’m just enthralled
Girl, girl, girl, girl

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I’m not sure if you noticed me
Sometimes I sense that you’re curious
Sometimes I think we’re in tune
Maybe it’s more than mysterious
You always say, “Meet me soon”
We set Oxford Circus at five
I hopped on Circle, you took Vic
Then you got stuck—London alive

[Pre-Chorus]
People say we’re a match
They claim we share the same route
We rode from Edmonton Green
And folks around looked amused
Can’t tell if your heart is open
Or if you’re lost in a hurry
But each time we step on Overground
I feel that rush, no worry

[Chorus]
Girl, it’s so surprising sometimes to find new love
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, it’s so surprising sometimes to find new love
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, how does it feel just to meet on that train?
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, how does it feel just to meet on that train?
Girl, girl
Man, I don’t know, I’m just enthralled
Girl, girl, girl, girl

[Verse 2]
You’re all about that Victoria line
While I’m on Central each day
We planned a date near Oxford Circus
Then I found out you were astray
You said you were late, I teased, “You’re late!”
Tourists get lost—so do we
But I have found you in chaos
This daily ride feels meant to be

[Pre-Chorus]
People say we’re quite mad
They see us crossing each day
Going to work’s never so fun
Now that we’ve found love en route
If you still want me beside you
I’ll wait on every platform
I’m ticket-ready to see this through
Let’s make each journey transform

[Chorus]
Girl, it’s so surprising sometimes to find new love
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, it’s so surprising sometimes to find new love
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, how does it feel just to meet on that train?
Girl, girl, girl, girl
Girl, how does it feel just to meet on that train?
Girl, girl
Man, I don’t know, I’m just enthralled
Girl, girl, girl, girl

[Outro]
Girl, girl, girl, girl

[Intro]
Wanna turn that red light... 
into bright lights...
Yo... Grrrt... Bap... Look...
Not that danger light... 
maybe spotlight...
Mad... Real talk...

(I wanna turn those blue lights) What have you done?
(Into strobe lights) There's no need to run

[Chorus]
There's no need to run
If you've done nothing wrong
(Sirens not comin') for you
(I wanna turn that red light) What have you done?
(Red light red light) No need to sell your soul for fun
(Not that danger light) What have you done?
(Into bright lights) No need to sell your soul for fun
(Not that danger light) If you're just tryna survive the run
(Maybe spotlight) Red lights shouldn't trap just anyone.
Trapped... Facts…

[Verse 2]
Gun crime in your right ear (Bap!)
Road life violence in your left (Skrr!)
Default white headphones floodin' the ends, you get me?
Subconscious waves you accept (True)
You're sittin' on the block back home
"Wagwan G? Answer your phone" (Brrrp)
Paused the poison to answer the text
Your boy sounds rushed, vexed, what's next?
See the scummy man, givin' gyal the eye (Ugh)
Half a chance, rob you blind, no lie
See it in his stare, yeah, he's got a drivin' ban
Amongst other things, part of a nasty plan (Scheme)
He tells the young G's, "Put on your red light"
Be the alpha, start the fight, live for the night (Madness)
Meek inherit earth? Nah, they inherit dust
Nice guys finish last, is love built on trust?
Or is it just muscle, the P's, the whip's thrust?
Drinkin' too much, livin' on the edge of the cuffs (Blue lights!)

[Bridge]
Mm, you better run when you hear the sirens comin' (Woo woo!)
When you hear the sirens comin' (Leg it!)
Better run when you hear the sirens comin'
'Cause they *will* be comin' for you (Ah, ah)
Run from the red light, run from the blue (Ah, ah)
Run from the choices hauntin' you (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Tall black shadow gettin' off the bus
Face shows no emotion, so what's the fuss?
But the life you chose casts a darker picture
Red handed acts, whispered scripture
"Look, blud, I'm sorry, had to get out of that"
Now you're the shook one, world's gone flat.
Blood on your hands but you don't know where it's from, oh
You got blood on your hands but you don't know where it's from.

[Chorus]
There's no need to run
If you've done nothing wrong
(Sirens not comin') for you
(I wanna turn that red light) What have you done?
(Red light red light) No need to sell your soul for fun
(Not that danger light) What have you done?
(Into bright lights) No need to sell your soul for fun
(Not that danger light) If you're just tryna survive the run
(Maybe spotlight) Red lights shouldn't trap just anyone.
[Drill Ad-libs]: Trapped... Facts…


[Outro]
Red light... blue light... spotlight... maybe...
Blud, when you hear the sirens...
Don't you run... don't you run...
What have you d-d-d-done, done?
Don't you run... from the red light...
2-0-2-5... London settings... Gone.

Red lights (Jorja Smith Blue Lights Remix)

Just playing around with this great song by Ethel Cain

Fuck Me Eyes (Cover of Ethel Cain song)

[Verse 1]
Hush now babes, there ain’t no doubt, you know you’re my only one.
But this ain't for fun, it's a money call, gotta get the deal done.
They watch me on road, they want me to fall, praying on my destruction.
You know I’m too smart, only idiots pay for that petrol consumption.
Yeah I hear you my love, I'm listening to your voice.
But the guy owes me P's, I ain't got a choice.

[Chorus]
But for now we are surfing the overground train.
Dodging the cameras and walking in the rain.
Feeling the pressure, feeling all this pain.
One day we’ll fly and never come back again.

[Verse 2]
I see you tense up when I get that text.
You ask what I'm cooking, what's coming up next.
This world is full of traps, my mind is complex.
So I’ll stash this right here ‘til I'm ready to flex.
Can I use your address, please don’t be vexed?
They can’t catch me, on that promise I will stand on the hill.
Don't you worry darling, just sit back and chill.

[Bridge]
We'll fly away to where the ocean's always warm.
Where the blue lights show respect and don't cause you no harm.
Living the good life, safe inside my arms.
No more restrictions or false alarms.

[Chorus]
'Cause right now we are surfing the overground train!
Dodging the cameras and walking in the rain!
Feeling the pressure, feeling all this pain!
One day we’ll fly and never come back again!

[Outro]
One day...
One day.

Surfing The Overground Train

A blues rock crossover. Grab yer dancin shoooos 

4th  song from “ Rock yer socks off “

Another song made with the help of Silver Blue Music Productions

Whispers in the dark they bloom
Shadows dance across the room
Is it real this strange perfume
Or just a trick a sweet costume

Heartbeat drummin fast and loud
Lost inside a hazy cloud

Love's a game a crazy game
Burning bright a brilliant flame
Love's a twist a funny turn
Lessons learned we always learn
Love's a challenge every day
Wins and losses come what may


Puzzle pieces in my head
Words unsaid and feelings spread
Will I fall or fly instead
Chasing dreams until I'm dead


Maybe there's no finish line
Just this feeling so divine
Yours and mine a cosmic sign
Forever intertwined

Love's a game a crazy game
Burning bright a brilliant flame
Love's a twist a funny turn
Lessons learned we always learn
Love's a challenge every day
Wins and losses come what may

Loves a crazy game come what may .mp3

[Intro]
Rise it up, ancestors!
Can you feel what I’m claiming now, yeah?
Get your truth in the air, sir!
And we will rewrite the verse, sister, go, go, go!

[Verse 1]
I said no (I said no)
Watch the empire fall (watch the empire fall)
Can you hear me call, yeah? (yeah yeah)
Watch the empire fall (watch the empire fall)
Do you perceive I would keep such a brand on me?


And hand it to the master's clan?
I wouldn't claim that, oh no (ooh, ooh)
I wouldn't claim that (ooh, ooh)
And if I say that, I would scream "Sir!
Come on and take your shame off me!"
I wouldn't name that (ooh, ooh)
I wouldn't name that (ooh, ooh)

[Chorus]
Elliott was my slave name, was a trade name, man
Right now, my spirit reclaims the land
Elliott was my slave name, yeah
Irish Scottish prisoner vanquished, rich
Poor helpless rebel in a ditch
Elliott was my slave name, was a chain name, man
Right now, my spirit reclaims the land!

[Verse 2]
I'm not a ghost to haunt myself
So I was ignorant of who they stole from me
The history was wrong (ooh, ooh), oh yeah
The history was wrong (ooh, ooh)
From Africa but don’t know my name
Lost my tongue, words never the same
Do you conceive I would fake such a life in me?
And sell it to the government man?
I wouldn't do that (ooh, ooh)

[The Break - Dancehall/Hip Hop Switch]
You steal it from me one time (huh!)
You steal it from me two times (huh-huh!)
You steal it from me three times (huh-huh-huh!)
You steal it from me four times (huh-huh-huh-huh!)

[Bridge]
Oh, words can not control me now
Oh, no text can not hold me now
They write it down and they lock the truth away
They try to hide I for a year and a day
But through the powers of the blood inside
Got to turn me loose, I say!

[Outro]
Elliott was my slave name, was a grave name, man
Right now, I define who I am, well!
Elliott was my slave name, was a knave name, man
Right now, I define who I am, hey!

Elliott Was My Slave Name

[Intro]
I don't know why
I don't know why I even came out tonight
And I wish I could just, like, read your mind
And I wish I could just, like
I wish I could skip the awkward start of this
When everyone says, "Just be yourself"
And, "Go with the flow"
Like, I just feel like the seconds are taking years to go

[Verse 1]
I’ve been trying to act like myself
Dying to handle what this is
But it feels like the room is spinning upside down
And I don’t know how to deal with the fizz

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve been memorizing every word
I’ve been faking conversations
It’s hard to keep it up
Yeah, I’m running out of vibrations
‘Cause I don't have the voice
To rearrange the situation
Yeah, the rhythm here isn't mine

[Chorus]
Can we just move a little bit closer?
‘Cause the lights and noise are a beautiful disaster
Wish I could fly ‘cause I can’t stop trying
So, can we move a little bit closer?

[Verse 2]
I thought I knew the rules 'til now
Even had my opening lines planned out
But standing here stiff has ruined everything
Just spit me out
I’m wired different, not artistic
Searching for a signal but the air is static

[Pre-Chorus]
Couldn't predict the burn
Yeah, the panic is coming hard
It’s cold standing alone
Tryin’ not to drop my guard
It’s like the night is ending
But maybe that’s because it is
I wish

[Chorus]
That we could move a little bit closer
‘Cause the lights and noise are a beautiful disaster
Wish I could fly ‘cause I can’t stop trying
So, can we move a little bit closer?

[Bridge]
Touch the sky
Let’s get high
I’ll be your maze runner tonight
I wanna take you away
But you look vacant, you look away
Make you mine tonight
Share some bedroom delight

[Outro]
It’s gonna take a spark, to feel the light
It’s gonna take a spark, to feel the light
It’s gonna take a spark, to feel the light
(I’m better here than home alone)
It’s gonna take a spark, to feel the light...


Maze Runner (Can we just move a little bit closer?)

[Verse 1]
Did I miscalculate?
I know the sum is great
You say, "Oh, solve for the unknown"
But I reckon on this
I'm dividing my heart for you
Yeah, that’s the share I’ll do

[Chorus]
I say, two
We make, two

[Verse 2]
The formula is yours
It’s the answer I run to
Yeah, that’s what I do
And I know the odds were long
But we subtract the noise
Oh, yeah, we will, yeah, we will, yes, we will

[Bridge]
Yeah, infinite us
Yeah, infinite us
And infinite us
Yeah, infinite us 

[Outro]
Work it out
La-la-la-la, two-two
La-la-la-la, two-two
La-la-la-la, two-two
La-la-la-la, two-two

Math

[Refrain]
We ride, ride, ride the Overground
We ride, ride, ride the Overground
We ride, ride, ride the Overground
We ride, ride, ride the Overground

[Verse 1]
Edmonton Green, the signals start
Silver Street, within my heart

[Verse 2]
White Hart Lane, the spaceship lands
Seven Sisters, touching hands


[Interlude]
Overground... Overground...


[Refrain]
We ride, ride, ride the Overground
We ride, ride, ride the Overground

[Verse 3]
Stoke Newington, the twilight zone
Electric heart is coming home


[Outro]
Ride the Overground
Ride the Overground
