Laveda - bb

Hey, I don’t wanna be somebody else’s
I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours
Wait, did I come off different than I meant
I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours
Oh

Why wait
I’m tethered why would I go back to
Those days but I’m worried
I might repeat the same
I might repeat the same, same, same

Babe, did you mean it all at all
Are you losing patience, I wanna be yours
Wait didn’t mean to argue with you again
I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours
Oh

Why wait
I’m tethered why would I go back to
Those days but I’m worried
I might repeat the same
Same, same
The same, same, same mistakes

Should we try to make it up
I don’t wanna listen
Yeah we did the same thing once
Is it any different

Should we make up
I’m just in love
It all hurts too much
I’m just in love

Yours

High Sunn - strawberry cheesecake

Afternoon

The song is about personal transformation and challenging societal norms, using the character of Mary Magdalene as a metaphor for breaking away from traditional gender roles and expectations. It celebrates the strength found in vulnerability and the profound connections that can happen even in moments of despair, such as a 4am call to a trusted friend. The lyrics intertwine themes of resilience ("Pride absorbs the pain") and self-realization ("Tungsten blasts of yellow cast the woman within"). The repeated references to vaudeville and theatrical imagery ("Tap your stick hand on the till, You reinvented vaudeville") suggest a reinvention not just of self, but of performance art, highlighting how the persona onstage can reflect deeper personal truths and transformations. The song is both a tribute to enduring friendship and a provocative challenge to rethink identity and performance in life's grand stage.


MARLENE
It's the friends you can call at 4am
Who'll listen if you're tearing out your hair or just your him within 
Lights go down the score unfolds 
That wisp has broke her him I'm told
Pride absorbs the pain

Determination waits for nobody's wings
Tungsten blasts of yellow cast the woman within 
Keys are slammed brass cracks pronounce a joke
Flicks the holder takes a toke  
Silence plays the game


Mary Magdalene split your gender crop your name
Walk the boards Berlin to Bonn
Where have all the flowers gone?
Ghosted face top hat and tails
Painted brow with scarlet nails 
Tap your stick hand on the till
You reinvented vaudeville 

Lovers from the world a voice like sour dew
A man without his tenderness is nothing to lose 
Critics go and shoot the breeze while women imitate her tease 
Glamour takes a bow
You knew how to hold and love and chastise them
Smoke would fill your laughter close your eyes
And whisper when 
A wink in time could fill a sterile stage
Off beat gasps and comic rage
A grin beneath the fan you became the female man

Mary Magdalene split your gender crop your name
Walk the boards Berlin to Bonn
Where have all the flowers gone?
Ghosted face top hat and tails
Painted brow with scarlet nails 
Tap your stick hand on the till
You reinvented vaudeville
