"Roll Me Over" is the final single by "Lonely Gimmick" before the release of their first album/E.P "Stay At Home to Sleep In" at the beginning of next year. 

Centred on the same girl as an earlier single (“Grumpy Days”) "Roll Me Over" reflects on the relationship’s aftermath. LG bares their soul right away, describing the beginning of the end with their opening lines. They place the blame completely on themselves whilst trying to soothe by saying "everything will be alright", "the night sky is full of stars".  Despite the hurt inside LG, their sole concern is to not cause further pain to themselves or anyone. 

This is the first track by Lonely Gimmick to start with vocals only: a bold move.
By focusing on lyrics more than music, LG demonstrates how deeply they feel about the song's meaning.  Whether that feeling originates from a sense of guilt or a search for forgiveness is, like most of LG's music, down to the listener to decide. 

The music accompanying the introduction is comparable to the sound of "King Krule". Following a slow, sober start the song hails back to the dancey indie disco days of LG's youth. The song’s structure could be juxtaposed with "When the sun goes down" by "Arctic Monkeys".  A heavy club kick drum and funky guitar drive the sonic motto of LG's production style "if it doesn't get your head boppin’ it ain't worth nothin".

This new release is almost a sibling to "Grumpy Days" but different enough to show there is still much to be explored in that sound.  A fiery jangly guitar riff and a vocal hook guaranteed to have you singing along within seconds. "Roll Me Over" explodes with energy and compassion, proving that LG is not afraid to take risks.

HIGH TIME

High time
I was feeling fine
Till They threw me in a ministry cell
High time
Pay me no mind
I don't think i'm a taking it well

End of Days
World gone mad
But we're not alone in this fight
I try to pray
But not today
High as a kite, i'm gonna take my flight

Make it through
Be reborn
The future never looked so bright
Old brown shoe
hullaballoo
it's gonna be a helluva night

But I Don't know how it will end
But I Know it sure is gonna be rough
The fix is in… take it on the chin
what's the matter boy, ain't you tough?

I'm on my way
To see the man
Who's responsible for all this
we're gonna look him in the face
Me and my ventriloquist… 

You came from the depths below
We thought we knew who was to blame
But you tricked so many mortal souls
You play so well but you can't win the game.

High Time (Pay Me No Mind)

PLAYIN FAIR FEAT. PURPLEP (PROD. ESKIMO)

Whip-poor-wills, Daffodils, And Mulberry Trees
You’ll be livin’ high on the hog
You’ll be playin’ kick the can, when I kick the bucket and
Until then I’ll work like a dog

I’ll be pushing up daisies come May they say I’m buying the farm

Don’t you dare look a gift horse in the mouth
You gotta take life by the reins
Put me out to pasture where the sunflowers sprout
Plant me where the Sycamore sways

I’ll be pushing up daisies come May they say I’m buying the farm

You can reap the harvest that I’ve sowed
Ain’t no reason for you to bear the yoke
I’ll till the soil for me and for the worms
Then we’ll rest together while you rest your concerns, they say I’m buying the farm

Here’s the deed yes indeed it’s free and clear
Take it before the good lord takes me
Don’t you kow-tow and stop your crying those tears
I got other fish to fry before the spring

I’ll be pushing up daisies come May they say I’m buying the farm

You can reap the harvest that I’ve sowed
Ain’t no reason for you to bear the yoke
I’ll till the soil for me and for the worms
Then we’ll rest together while you rest your concerns, they say I’m buying the Pushing daisies come May they say I’m buying the, 
Pushing daisies come May they say I’m buying the farm

Cropped

See.
