Lyrics: 

I think i’m ready to do this all over again 
(Stop laughing this time i really mean it) 

(It can’t be any worse than last time) 

Let’s kick things off with a bang!
Nail the punchline and make my excuses
But it’s all gone quiet again
And i’ve forgotten what i was trying to say

Jokes on you 
This isn’t even really my real voice 
You’re just in danger of overthinking things a tad
It’s just a pang
And just like that life is interesting again

But then I got bored 

So onto the next one!
This is what we call real conversation 
And this is what we call fucking it up 

(Oh God this can’t be happening again) 

You’re in danger of trying too hard
But who could resist in a place like this 
You’re gonna love it here
It’s simply a matter of confidence 
It’s all, part…

What funny looking little men and women!
I’m gonna be an American 
But to everyone else's dismay
I’ve forgotten what i was trying to say 
So i’ll just sit at the front and wait for the questions
I’m open for business
And i'm not very good at this 

(Really? I never would have guessed)

It’s all confidence 
It’s our chance
To make something happen 
And they all gather around for the best looking man in the pub 

(I’m not sure he’s even northern…)

We’re gonna have a hell of a chat
So start making notes now
This is the most fun I've had in years!

(Oh yeah i really believe that)

Catch the mirror
And i haven't really grown at all have I
I’m in danger of otherthinking things a tad 
And fantastic life is interesting again!
But i’m still bored 

It's all confidence
It's all part of the dance 
But its a chance 

To go back to the start
And tear things apart 
And get that devil off your back 
For a moment you could kid yourself 
That someone might just see the signs 
But what a terrible choice of words from the best looking man in the pub 

(It’s just a matter of confidence) 

C’mon! 

(All eyes on us, all eyes on us) 

Calibrate for one hot minute
It was fine, fuck the delusions of grandeur 
Enamoured with a better looking idea 
And it was just a pang! Just a pang! Just a pang! 
You’re fascinating 
And life is interesting again 

But i'm still bored
And i’ve forgotten what i was trying to say (what a surprise, what a surprise) 
It's simply a matter of confidence 
You're in danger of trying too hard
But who can resist? Who can resist? Who can resist? 
We’re gonna stick it to the end 
Where’s the punchline?
Where’s the punchline?
Where’s the punchline?
Where’s the punchline?
Everyone seems to have forgotten we’re still here 
And i’ve fallen apart 
And it's all brilliant art 
And that’s it
We made it
Do you think it was worth it?

Even Fred’s Happy makes music that gives a voice to that noise in the back of your head that doubts everything you do.
 
Forming its current line-up in 2023, the London trio are equal parts chaotic and charming. Not afraid to divert from the well-trodden paths of the capital’s live circuit, the band can  been found performing on post-punk bills at The Windmill, but also at pop nights with Laura Mvula, or at Art Galleries, house parties and comedy clubs. Also operating their own regular Post Punk is Dead club nights, its most recent edition at a sold-out Old Blue Last included sets from Truck Festival openers Yuke and DJ sets from actor Tony Gardner (My Parents Are Aliens, Fresh Meat) and Still Listening Magazine.
 
De facto debut single ‘The Best Looking Man In The Pub’ offers a glorious introduction to the band’s engrossingly perverse vision. Produced by Darren Jones (Emile Sande, Stormzy, Fat Dog), and self-effacingly described as “if James Acaster decided to front a camp Yard Act tribute band”, the track leaps from pummelling disco rhythms to all guitars-blazing euphoria; it’s both a whimsical package of performance art and an earnest, blood-rushing electro-punk extravaganza. Crowned with a release show at renowned comedy club The Bill Murray, the track has been featured by So Young Magazine, Hard of Hearing and Still Listening Magazine, as well as being played multiple times on John Kennedy’s Radio X show.

I’m a singer-songwriter from Derbyshire. All songs on here are demos. Just recorded on my phone or iPad. I have songs also on philbus.bandcamp.com . Also on YouTube at @Philbus77 . I’m also on instagram at @philbus850 . My email is philbus850@gmail.com . 
    I love bands like Crowded House, Embrace, Depeche Mode, New Order and singer-songwriters like Josh Ritter, Josh Rouse, Neil Young, Kara Jackson and also all of the girls from Boygenius. Please check out my new album Tales on www.philbus.bandcamp.com
   I have been writing songs since I was about 10 years old, maybe even a bit longer as I can recall being younger than that and strumming a toy guitar and singing some sort of melody. I can play the keys a little bit and that’s where I write my songs at the keyboard, because I don’t have a band behind me, at the moment songs are recorded using keyboard presets as backing music with me singing over into my iPad. 
  I’m in the process of changing my setup and will soon start using a laptop and a keyboard to make hopefully a more unique sound, at least I hope more professional.
  I hope that you enjoy my music, that’s why I make it, because I enjoy it and I want other people to as well.
  Thanks, from Philbus, or Phil if you want to be more personal.
