Captain Elon
Captain Elon
Won’t you lead us into outer space and
You can be my Captain Elon

We’re all living in this world of Elon Musk
Where robots take our jobs cause they’re smarter than us 
We should be grateful, and we shouldn’t kick a fuss
We’re dying anyway 

The planet’s heating, and the ocean’s on the rise
It’ll wipe out Asia and then Europe’s next in line
Come on America, don’t you act surprised 
This is the price you’ll pay

So Elon, Elon, won’t you save us from ourselves
Elon, Elon, cause we ain’t got no one else
With your technology, your vision, and your wealth 
You could save us all

Captain Elon
Captain Elon
Won’t you lead us into outer space and
You can be my Captain Elon

We’re all living in this world of Elon Musk
There’s nothing in the news today that I can trust
Countries tweeting other countries that they lust
What a perverted state

With every search and every photo that I like
Shows my location and records my porno sites 
Power now is telling others what to buy
They got my face and name

So Elon, Elon, won’t you save us from ourselves
Elon, Elon, cause we ain’t got no one else
With your technology, your vision, and your wealth 
You could save us all

Captain Elon
Captain Elon
Won’t you lead us into outer space and
You can be my Captain Elon

Captain Elon
Captain Elon
Won’t you lead us into outer space and
You can be my Captain Elon

Captain Elon

V1
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I matched on OKC
She was smiling in her photos, that’s a must for me
After several messages about our top five bands and films
and celebrities invited to a dinner party (Thom Yorke) 

She asked me for a date near her in a north London park
I played it cool and said, ‘Sure, I know how to get there’
Got off the bus and took a left turn, should a took a right turn, 30 minutes later in the wrong ends

When I finally showed up, I was sweating from my jog
But she was pretty cool, she didn’t give me stroganoff
So we chatted about childhoods, teen-hoods, and a postmodern, sexually fluid, non-normative adulthood

Mono, poly, swing a brolly, bi or queer, straight or gay
Casual, hook up, I’m all shook up, unicorns and anarchy 
We’re the generation swiping on Tinder
And I haven’t even mentioned we were socially distanced

CHORUS
She’s a lady lover
She’s a man lover
She’s a lover’s lover
Hold tight
She’s a wine lover
She’s a cat lover
She’s a massage lover
Alright

V2
For a second date (Woop!), I chose the V&A
Looked at some foreign things collected by some old, white males
Tried to impress her with my knowledge of the Empire
But she just shook her head and said that, ‘History is a big liar’

So we continued to a super trendy King’s Cross bar
I asked her questions over cocktails in a jam jar, like
‘How is your child?’ and ‘What are your kinks?’ and
’Is it important what your primary partner thinks?’ (Haha)

She laughed at me until the News at Ten told us to go 
Government regulation keeps the R rate low 
Back outside I thought to my myself, never met anyone like her
And she must have read my mind, cause she said, ’Is it OK if I kiss ya?’

Mono, poly, swing a brolly, bi or queer, straight or gay
Casual, hook up, I’m all shook up, unicorns and anarchy 
We’re the generation swiping on Tinder
And sometimes we don’t follow being socially distanced

CHORUS
She’s a lady lover
She’s a man lover
She’s a lover’s lover
Hold tight
She’s a wine lover
She’s a cat lover
She’s a massage lover
Alright

V3
On our third date, I invited her over to mine 
We planned to watch a film and red red wine
But feeling confident, proposed a massage and she said, 
‘Ooh yeah, if you top up my glass’

I worked my hands up and down, side to side 
In the joints, round the curves, waxing on, waxing off
Worked the muscles, and the bones, and the glands
And the tendons, and the nerves, it was getting pretty hot

I took my cue from her relaxing moans
It was now or never to start the kissy kissy
I thought I’ll do my bit for Queen and country
Let’s eat out to help out and help my friend Rishi

Mono, poly, swing a brolly, bi or queer, straight or gay
Casual, hook up, I’m all shook up, unicorns and anarchy 
We’re the generation swiping on Tinder
And sometimes we don’t follow being socially distanced

CHORUS
She’s a lady lover
She’s a man lover
She’s a lover’s lover
Hold tight
She’s a wine lover
She’s a cat lover
She’s a massage lover
Alright

V4
In the morning, she said, ‘We need to have a chat’
You know it’s never good when someone says that
‘I like you,’ but, ‘life is so busy’
‘With my child and my girlfriend and my pussycat Tiggy’ 

And so… ‘I know it’s early but a break would be cool’
I thought, ah na, I’m Ross being elbowed by Rachel
‘I’ll be in touch when there’s work and there’s schools’
But I’m not holding my breath for days of old normal

So that’s the story of the girl I matched from OKC
The kiss she asked for still means a lot to me (x2)

Lover's Lover

Terry, he meets Julie
But Julie doesn’t show
Cause love don’t last forever, everybody knows, and now he knows

Friday nights are lonely
Dinner by the phone
Forget about that river now, let that river go, let it flow

So, London, tell me why, are your people crying 
London, tell me why, should I keep on trying
You got to let me know, should I stay or should I go

Julie’s feeling seasick
She can’t fight those waves no more
Grab all of your belongings, turn and face the door, don’t wanna fight no more

Now Friday night’s for drinking
At half past four again
Celebrate that sunset, you made it through the day, another day

So, London, tell me why, are your people crying 
London, tell me why, should I keep on trying
You got to let me know, should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go
Should I stay or should I go
Should I stay or should I go
Stay or should I go

London, Tell Me Why

VERSE 1
So I’ve… never been to New York City, cause I’m a little afraid to fly
And I’ve never caught any petty criminals in my web, cause I’m a little afraid to die
But if you share your number and let me walk you in the rain
I’ll be your Spider-Man, you’ll be my Mary Jane

VERSE 2
Now I’m… not the type of guy who gets angry. I’m a respectable, bespectacled guy
If someone shoulder barges me in the street, I’ll say, ‘I’m sorry. I hope you’re alright’ 
But, girl, if someone shoulder barges you, just shout me, Romanov
No more Dr Banner, the specs are coming off

VERSE 3
Sadly I’m not… rich or super charismatic. I don’t have witty remarks up my tuxedo sleeve
I don’t drive fast cars, have any fancy gizmos, not on the cover of glossy magazines
But if you want someone to run you a bath and feed you strawberries and love you lots
I’ll be your Tony Stark, you’ll be my Pepper Potts
 
VERSE 4
You can… see that I’m not much handsome, and I’m certainly no god
I don’t go to the gym five times a week. I got no muscles to show off
But, girl, if you can see past muscle, you’ll find that I’m no bore
Be my Dr Jane Foster, I’ll be your Thor

VERSE 5
Lastly I’ve… never been made a captain of an army or even my football team
I’m the kinda guy who likes to hang back, observe it all. Ain’t got a reason to lead
But, boy, if you lose direction and I see people do you harm
I’ll be your Steve Rogers
I’ll be your Steve Rogers 
I’ll be your Steve Rogers, you’ll be my Bucky Barnes 
 
OUTRO
Na na na na na, nana nana, na na nana na. You’ll be my Mary Jane
Na na na na na, nana nana, na na nana na. The specs are coming off
Na na na na na, nana nana, na na nana na. You’ll be my Pepper Potts
Na na na na na, nana nana, na na nana na. I’ll be your Thor
Na na na na na, nana nana, na na nana na. 
I’ll be your Steve Rogers
I’ll be your Steve Rogers 
I’ll be your Steve Rogers, you’ll be my Bucky Barnes

Steve Rogers

V1
I wrote my heart on an envelope 
I lost my words and I kind of choked
So I scrunched it
Now it’s a ball

CHORUS
Brown paper ball
That you slam to the wall
Asking one question
‘Do you love me?’

V2
I told my heart it’s time to forgot about you
I said these words out loud so that my heart can’t refuse
But it refused
And started pumping some more 

CHORUS
Heart’s pumping some more
Cause of this brown paper ball
Asking one question
‘Do you love me?’

MIDDLE 8
I… really wanna love you more
If only you’d open up and invite me in
  
V3
I’ll tell your heart don’t play with envelopes
They’ll mix your words and they’ll go for broke
So just scrunch it
Make it a ball

V4
And tell your heart there’s plenty more fish in the sea
But I am tired of fishing, I just want your 
Good old fashioned company cause 
We could be so good together   

V5
Tell me something, tell me something 
How do you sleep so peacefully? 
When my mind is full of thoughts
‘Do you love me?’

CHORUS
Brown paper ball
That you slam to the wall
Asking one question
‘Do you love me?’

CHORUS
Heart’s pumping some more
Cause of this brown paper ball
Asking one question
‘Do you love me?’

OUTRO
Ball

Brown paper ball
Do you love me?

Brown paper ball
Do you love me?

Brown paper ball
Do you love me?

Brown paper ball 
Do you love me?

Brown paper ball
Do you love me?

Brown paper ball
Do you love me?

Brown Paper Ball

When all is said and done
Well I hope you had some fun
In the rain and in the sun
You will dance with everyone

You made some lovers and some friends
And I’m sure you’ll meet again
You’re a sentimental guy
Enough to make me cry

When your head is full of doubt
You don’t know if you’re in or out
You can kick and scream about
Even better twist and shout

And they say you have a dream
And the best is to be seen
You’re a sentimental guy
Enough to make me cry

You’re a sentimental guy
You’re a sentimental guy

Sentimental Guy

Quirky indie-popster from London. 'Sentimental Guy' out now!
