my mother always called it market research ...  <3 

Lyrics: 
[Verse 1]
My mother always called it market research
Don't worry honey if your heart gets hurt
My mother always said you love and leave first
Don't worry honey if you haven't learnt

[Pre-Chorus}
You got one thing on your side and
It's time
You got me by your side and
You're fine

[Chorus]
Alcoholics have more fun
Have them here but don't have them over 
if you think he is the one
Double check when you are sober
Shopaholics have more fun
But don't forget that you'll get broke-er 
if you think you've got it wrong
No one out there's got it closer 
if you think you've got it wrong
All you've got is me to learn from 
when you've got it wrong
You know I'm here for you to learn from
 when you've got it wrong
You know I'm here for you
For you 
to learn from

[Verse 2]
My mother always called him market research
Don't worry honey if you're not his girl
My mother always said he's just the reserve [pronounced: "re -zerve"]
Don't worry honey 'cause he's not your work

[Pre-Chorus]
You got everything on your side
You got time
You got everyone on your side, 
you know you're fine

(She said...)

[Chorus]
Alcoholics have more fun
Have him here but don't have him over 
if you think he is the one
Double check when you are sober
Shopaholics have more fun
But don't forget that you'll get broke-er 
if you think you've got it wrong
No one out there's got it closer 
if you think you've got it wrong
All you've got is me to learn from 
when you've got it wrong
You know I'm here for you to learn from
 when you've got it wrong
You know I'm here for you
For you 
to learn from
(For you - to learn from)

[Bridge]
Once you're thirty down
You won't see your exes in a crowd
Once you're twenty-nine
You'll know a red flag from a sign
Once you're thirty down
The third the fourth won't stick around
But you're only 21
Now's the time to get it wrong...

[Chorus]
Alcoholics have more fun
Have him here but don't have him over 
if you think he is the one
Double check when you are sober
Shopaholics have more fun
But don't forget that you'll get broker 
if you think you've got it wrong
No one out there's got it closer 
if you think you've got it wrong
All you've got is me to learn from 
when you've got it wrong
You know I'm here for you to learn from
 when you've got it wrong
You know I'm here for you
For you 
to learn from

[Outro]
You know I'm here for you
For you to learn from

Market Research

Just the way I observe the world... I write a mix of genres, all with a lyrical emphasis: blues/jazz, pop, indie, folk and country. Mostly record live takes of me singing/playing but started using Suno to produce demos of all my songs to get them in the ether. I'm starting to focus my efforts on recording my vocals on my favourite songs for my debut album I'm hoping to release by the end of 2026 - stay tuned. Please get in touch if interested in a collab :) - insta @lucettaedward
