deep under the sea, there lies a city
with a mayor who doesn't care
all covered in water, te huia's daughter
but the mayor, he doesn't care
didn't know it was raining
pity me, i've been training
set my racquet to kill
and the media, i will
sick of all the complaining?
well, i've got three years remaining
and the clouds will keep me shouting
as your god keeps bawlin'
and your hopes are fallin'
well, the courts are callin'
yeah, you might have won
now we're counting the cost
i won't say love if you won't say you lost
you call them all drongos
four gone to the shadows
call that a backhand?
you may be right
didn't know it was raining
pity me, i've been training
set my racquet to kill
and the media, i will
sick of all the complaining?
well, i've got three years remaining
and the clouds will keep me shouting
as your god keeps bawlin'
and your hopes keep fallin'
well, the courts are callin'
on day nine the sun came out again
came out again, came out again
please crawl back into your hole
please don't pretend you care enough
please crawl back into your hole

Asking For It

boomers, they want; and boomers, we get
without a clue and dishing out threats
'girl, you will die alone'
taking their views into their late graves
sticking around to make sure we pay
they went to school for free
back in the day, you didn't have crime?
they were your property!
the good old days called
they told me they sucked
the good old days called
told them to get fucked
they were asking for it
look at their fashion
they were asking for it now
the older they get, the older we get
the richer they get, the richer we… don't?
'boy, you will die poor'
pyramid schemes are all that you've got
bury your sons and bury your daughters
they were your property!
the good old days called
told them that they sucked
the good old days called
told them to get fucked

i told you this has to end
but i kept quiet on just when
the first words that turned my head
were not yours, or what you meant
and now we are so far
there's no going back

growing up was not part of the plan
getting older, it's not enough to say
when i was young i never could see
that the boy in the mirror was old me

In Over My Head

when this ends, and skies are blue
when the grass is greener too
and all of this, it's all a dream
second chances, they have come before
i never tried to hurt you
when this ends, and night is here
maybe i should write it down before
we all forget just how to write
