Oblivious

Excite Me Much

Unholy river

I

I was a bell jar full of storm
and you a trapping lid
boy you´re such a Nancy boy
so I guess that makes me Sid
In my bed I sleep with many books
and they please me like you never did

// 

Show me slowly
how you stole me
from the deep blue sea
and now you tell me off
you won´t be needing more of me

he says he tried 
but he failed to deliver
and words run right through
me like some 
Unholy river
Unholy river


II

I had a vivid dream I wore a satin dress
barefeet and red lips like Marilyn Monroe
I had an avid man and he had avid hands
and I cried in his face: give me shelter
I cried in his face: keep me warm
or please let me go

//

Show me slowly
how you stole me
from the deep blue sea
and now you tell me off
you won´t be needing more of me

he says he tried 
but he failed to deliver
and words run right through
me like some 
Unholy river
Unholy river

UNHOLY RIVER

Dogeye minute 

I.
It was a street-shark-kiss on the lips
you shoved me up to the wall
you counted 1 2 3 4 
baby yeah you knew I would fall
baby yeah you knew I would fall

II.
Wet with praises and off your face
you with your dogeyes bitten with
my love it´s only minutes ticking 
and all of this will be forgotten
a mouth full of you
is a mouth full of cotton

Chorus:
It was a dogeye minute
then you went awol
can´t call that love innit
now it´s like I never knew you at all (x4)

III.
Cold white tiles I´m gonna stay awhile
barefeet, hurt and dry I´d walk a mile
eye to eye just to say
Hey wasn´t it all just a
Hey wasn´t it all just a

Chorus:
Dogeye minute 
then you went awol
can´t call the love innit
now it´s like I never knew you at all (x4)

Bridge:
An eye for an eye
a kiss for a tooth
a headache, a sunrise
a table for one
now that you´re gone
wasn´t it all just a 
wasn´t it all just a

Chorus:
Dogeye minute 
then you went awol
can´t call the love innit
now it´s like I never knew you at all (x2)

It´s like I never knew you, knew you
At all 
It´s like I never knew you, knew you
At all 
At all.

DOGEYE MINUTE

(him)							(her)

Don’t you recall how you told me  			I wrote you a letter
Once in that booth in the corner  			Or maybe I called you
“Oh I love a place with a history”			Something impressing
This once was a speakeasy 
Now it’s a bundle of nerves

                                                              Ah...

Something unraveled in pages 			I wrote you a letter
Someone is bitching and moaning  			It’s funny how things go
Somehow despite how you fight it 			Everything’s easy
Everything’s perfect
Because of what’s in disarray

                                                              Ah...

Don’t you remember those feelings			I thought that I saw you
Don’t you remember those noises 			I thought that I heard you
Don’t you remember it’s laughing 			Laughing and coughing
Don’t you remember
To never forget that again

                                                              Ah...

They always will be disapproving			I never knew them
And say things like “I like their old stuff better”	I wanted to know them
But I know your demons will thank you 		I’ve always known them
The next trip you take
Should be lost in your own little world

                                                              Ah...
