She was ready.
The landscape didn't help.
I can tell you that.
He just stopped and waited.
In the evening it would be the same.

The landscape didn't help.
I can tell you that.
He just stopped and waited.
In the evening it would be safer.

They can drink so much.
But it's not easy.
A few friends know the answer.
They can drink so much.
But it's not easy.

She wouldn't tell me.
How far is it actually?
That's a big window.
I don't remember exactly.
It doesn't really matter, Charlie.
It's windy in here.
We didn't write it, Charlie.
He is in charge.

DRINK (live)

You can find it in that blue folder.
Every monkey would be happy to hear that.
It seems to be an important issue.

We will never forget what happened.
You can keep writing and reading all day.

Someone is pulling the strings.
The weather has always been there.
She's been lying for a long time.

The weather has always been there.
She's been lying for a long time.

We could have coffee next week.
Early in the morning, Charlie.

It seems to be an important issue.
Every monkey would be happy to hear that.
It seems to be an important issue.

music and lyrics by Larva Peruzzotti

Coffee

It's not that difficult, Charlie.
Waiting is not that bad.
From another perspective nothing looks so black.
A roof and no walls.

That engine will become a ghost.
And nobody knows.
And having a second breakfast won't help.
We are looking for the money.
Cash, horses and stones.

Wooden frames waiting.
The end of the sentence is not as good as the beginning.
We'll keep trying.

We'll keep trying.
Did you hear about the next boat coming?
Everything keeps happening.
We've been waiting for the world cup.
Motorbikes are not allowed.
We keep crossing the river.
You keep coming back.

I have to bring the money soon.
All those rabbits can not wait any longer.
It's a huge amount.

The moon is round.
They will never notice.
The moon is round.
They will never notice.

music and lyrics by Larva Peruzzotti

Money

It's up to you, Charlie.
Don't need to talk too much.
It's been many years since that happened.
So he wonders who would know the answer?
I can't think about anything better to tell.

Mine is a broken computer. I can not scroll.
I was not talking about you, anyway.
All the buses go in the same direction.
White lights and screaming birds.

We were sitting together and talking about grass.
Listen to all those lazy animals.
I see seven flags but they all look the same.

Just keep waiting and send a letter.
Only if you think you are ready.
But never on Sundays.

I guess she was expecting something else.
Everybody was smoking.
All those heavy bags can wait.
Usually it's time to go.

music and lyrics by Larva Peruzzotti

About

We would like to go fishing.
She tried to explain.
I failed once again.
I failed once again.
Everybody knows.
Everybody was looking at you.
The duck was so innocent.
A big amount of liquid and a scientist.
I keep running and swimming and waiting and swimming and running.
It's not your turn, Charlie. It's not your turn.

She was drawing a line.
They never explained what happened to her.
The plants keep thinking about something else.

And the duck was so innocent.
A big amount of liquid and science.
I keep running and swimming and waiting and swimming and running.
It's not your turn this time, dear Charlie.

music and lyrics by Larva Peruzzotti

Plants

I don't remember. You don't want.
We've been waiting for hours.
Tomorrow I have to work.
We could meet on Monday.
She always writes about those things.
Please bring the money.
We could meet on Monday.
She always writes about those things.
Please bring all your friends immediately.
Not all of them look so good.
The main entrance was out of control.
They were trying to explain everything.

We could meet on Friday.
They were trying to explain everything.
The dog is eating wood.
You don't need to worry.
The dog is talking too.
You don't need to worry about that, Charlie.

By Tuesday everybody will be gone.
He wants to talk about it.
She is not so sure.
They keep eating as much as possible.

I don't remember. You don't want.
We've been waiting here for hours.
She always writes about those things.
We could meet on Sunday.

music and lyrics by Larva Peruzzotti

Tuesday

It doesn't mean anything, actually.
It shouldn't be so complicated.
They know what I'm talking about.
She got lost in the future.
Why am I here? Who am I anyway?
They gather in the morning and then they talk about it.

Sometimes it's not in the menu.
Not following the instructions could be dangerous.
Listen to me, Charlie.
What happened with the mirror?
Everyone is out of focus.
We could have gone to the temple.
Just in time for the next breakfast.
Two hundred bottles of dust and a black watch.

Just looking and waiting.
Waiting, waiting.
She was all covered in shit.
He took her to the hospital.
The birds where not there.

I will pretend that it happened.
Please tell your friends about it.
Any smile is welcome.
And don't forget to shut up.

The lights should be enough.
Start collecting stones, and wait for the message.
There's still people on the table.
They used to be called something I don't remember.

Where is the knife?
Where is the knife?
The knife is there.

Pink and black are better than nothing.
It was almost a disaster.
We keep waiting for the moment.
I'll try to remember.
I'll try to remember.

Birds

The kitchen is clean and warm.
The music they play is quite confusing.
The kitchen is clean and warm.
The music they play is quite confusing.
Did you manage to fill the page?
I hope they don't expect too much.
She didn't get a good impression.

We shouldn't talk about that.
I've been writing what you asked me.
They want to drink some wine.
She was dressed and waiting for Charlie.

The kitchen is clean and warm.
It's useless to stay.
Did you manage to fill the page?
She didn't get a good impression.

I'm being quite honest.
We shouldn't talk about that.
I'm being quite honest.
We shouldn't talk about that.
The soup was delicious.
My fingers will let you notice.

music and lyrics by Larva Peruzzotti

Honest

Drink

She keeps drinking from the empty glass.
He behaves as a real gentleman.
That was a healing conversation.
Apparently I'm lacking some know-how.
It's cheaper on Wednesdays, Charlie.
It's not always like that.

He behaves as a real gentleman.
Apparently I'm lacking some know-how.
The queen was not ready yet.
For now I will keep recording.
You might need a rope tomorrow.
She got an unexpected schedule.
We stopped looking for them.
That was a healing conversation.
Apparently I'm lacking some know-how.
We stopped looking for a solution.
It's washable.

music and lyrics by Larva Peruzzotti

Queen

I'd like to swim. Go and tell the rabbits.
The Greeks were right. The Greeks were right.
The prisoners will try to recognize her.
Spend the night around the fire.

How many pages do you expect?
The dogs next door can also run.
The Greeks were right. The Greeks were right.
I'd like to swim. I'd like to swim.
Go and tell the rabbits if you wish.
The prisoners will try to recognize her.
Spend the night around the fire.

How many pages do you expect?
Apparently the book she wrote was rejected.
A desk full of papers was not enough.
Just bring every candle you find on the way.
Apparently the book she wrote was rejected.
The north is just a reference. The north is just a reference.

The Greeks were right, Charlie. The Greeks were right.
The horses are still running, Charlie. The horses are still running.
The horses are still running, Charlie. The horses are still running.

A desk full of papers was not enough.
I try to manage. I try, Charlie.
Just bring every candle you find on the way.
May I have a glass of water?

Greeks

Memory Fish produces dreamy, meditative songs with a subtly soothing, medicinal quality. With a pared down sound, using only a vintage synthesizer, the vocals take center stage in these quiet lovelorn songs. The album’s ten songs are connected by mysteriously evocative fragmented stories dedicated to a fictional character named Charlie.   

This Amsterdam-based solo-project was founded in January 2018 and gently references artists like Leonard Cohen, The Space Lady and Yo La Tengo. In November 2018, the first album ‘The Horses Are Still Running’ was released. On stage, the songs stay true to their album versions since the record was produced to be reproduced live in all its intimate detail.
