"Alright Mate?"
"Yeah Alright"
"I...Er..Wanted to talk to you about this Flat White thing you keep doing..."
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah, look mate, don't you think it's gone on long enough now...?"
"Oh right...Er I dunno..."
"I mean you used to do some quite nice stuff really...."
"You mean like Shut Out The Night - that sort of thing?"
"No not that one -the other one, one with a girl singer"
"Moments."
"That's the one. You were doing alright with that one...didn't you get on the radio?"
"Yeah I did yeah....."
"This new stuff...Well...it's a bit weird mate..."
" You think?"
"Yeah. And all the swearing mate. Oh my fucking days, nobody wants to hear that on a record y'know...?"
"Oh right.."
"It's not personal, I just don't like to see you making a fool of yourself that's all..."
"Yeah, I appreciate that mate, you're just saying...."
"Yeah"
(Awkward silence)
"Same again?"

Moments
Please, oh please
Don’t look at me that way
You’re using your eyes to say words
That we cannot say,
Don’t you try to make me
What, I cannot be
Because I don’t belong to you,
And you don’t belong to me
(No you don’t!)....
Etc...Etc....Blah....

Where am I going to sleep tonight?
The couch, the bench or bed?
Where am I gonna sleep tonight?
Where will I lay my head?
Hotbedding…Yeah Yeah
Hotbedding
Where will I sleep tonight?
The options stark & plain
Where am I gonna sleep tonight
Somewhere there is no blame
Hotbedding…Yeah Yeah
Hotbedding
Where am I going to sleep tonight?
When you tell me so
Where am I gonna sleep tonight?
Now I sleep alone
Hotbedding…Yeah Yeah
Hotbedding
Where am I going to sleep tonight?
The couch, the bench or bed?
As I lay wondering
And going out of my head

Error 75
Wish I could reboot my brain
Wish I could be new
I’m so sick & tired
Of feeling blue
I feel like a zombie
More dead than alive
Feel like a laptop
With Error 75
Feel like laptop
With Error 75
Wish I could do a clean wipe
Wish I could de-frag
I’m a bad apple mac
That you can’t take back
I feel like a zombie
More dead than alive
No better than a laptop
With Error 75
No better than a laptop
With Error 75
Gotta get the panel off
Feeling kinda rough
Take me to the shop
Where they sort this kinda stuff
I feel like a zombie
More dead than alive
Hard drive compromised

Billy Mann,
I just can’t understand
Why do you have to win all of the time?
Billy Mann
We all do what we can,
You don’t have to be top dog every time
Oh Billy Mann…
Billy Mann,
Competitive man
It’s been a game of winning
Ever since school
Made us fools
Billy Mann,
The faster you ran
The more the girls would love your form it’s true
Oh Billy Mann…
Billy Mann,
We need a new plan
Because we all tick the box marked ‘exit’someday
Billy Mann
Help me understand
What makes you tick
And does it still work for you?
Billy Mann
You’re not yesterday’s man
Let today be a new day.

Kate’s Arousal
Kate works in the pub behind the bar
Lots of boys try it on but they don’t get far
Kate’s a cool cat, dressed in black
Showing all the other girls what they lack
Now I ain’t talkin’ nothin’ spousal,
But all the boys would love to contribute
-To Kate’s arousal.
Kate frequents the Snooker Club
I can’t go in there it gets kinda rough
She’s sinking balls like Ronnie
She’s the kinda girl makes the whole world
Seem sunny
Now I ain’t talkin’ nothin’ spousal,
But all the boys would love to contribute
-To Kate’s arousal.
Kate’s the girl boys dream about
She gives us a smile
When we’re out and and about
She’s a Rock Chick babe
Dressed in black
She’s so cool & she takes me back
Now I ain’t talkin’ nothin’ spousal,
But all the boys would love to contribute
-To Kate’s arousal.
Tats all

A New Hope
If only the sun would come out and shine
On the righteous one more time
If only the almighty (should he exist)
Offer his children a sign
Why can’t the good people have a moment to shine?
Why can’t we have a new hope this time?
A new hope
A new hope
A new hope
We’ve been waiting for so long now
People are hurting, heads are held low
Those that decide should decide somehow
To give some hope for us all
Everything we had is broken
All the words we hear are token
And we are so tired we believe it all still
Oh give us…
A new hope
A new hope
A new hope
I can’t remember if things were really always this way
But I’m sure things could change someday
If we had something to believe in
And a new hope.

“No. Stop this. This is a NON-COMPLIANCE. The track playing is a B-Side from a previous Flat White record. This is a blatant disregard for the One Month Album Rules.
To reiterate, they are: -
Write and record an album in a month - The goal is to try and reach 10 tracks, Or, 35 minutes of material. Everything must be written AND recorded during the month, but other than that it's up to you - It could be songs, instrumentals, field recordings, spoken word, anything goes. When you are done, upload your album to a bandcamp page and submit it to the group.
We trust this clear. Now carry on.”

I Only Cheated A Little Bit
I only cheated a little bit
Really worked a charm
I only cheated a little bit
What was the harm?
I only hurt myself I said
Was only acting cold
I only cheated a little bit
No one else was involved
I only cheated a little bit
Who will ever know?
I only cheated a little bit
Why not have a go?
Just a cheeky chappie
Never meant no harm
I only cheated a little bit
Everybody stay calm
I only cheated a little bit
Hardly hurt at all
I only cheated a little bit
Who would ever know?
I don’t feel guilty, not a bit
Though I was a bit of a so & so…
I only cheated a little bit
You don’t have to go.

Gibraltar!

Gibraltar!
Gibraltar!
Land of the free
Where monkeys run free
Oh, to spend my days again in Gibraltar
Gibraltar!
Island in the sun
But not like the Falklands
It’s attached to Spain
You see
Gibraltar!
My chest fills with pride
Throw open the doors
Step outside into
Gibraltar!
Our Empire Overseas
We will bring these aggressors
To their knees
Gibraltar!
As English as the pound
When pounds were round
And of note
Gibraltar!
I’d give every pound note
To some bloke
To keep Gibraltar with me
God save the Queen.

Only takes two tracks to record
Me n’my banjo Pete
It only takes two tracks
Only takes two tracks to record
Me n’my banjo Pete
Two tracks, That’s all
Only took two tracks to record
‘Neat Neat Neat’ Pete
Wasn’t that a feat?
Neat Neat Neat’
What a feat
Only takes two tracks Pete
Only takes two tracks to record
Me n’my banjo Pete
It’s a progressive beat, Pete
A progressive beat
Only takes a few words
To make a song Pete
Just a few words
As long as the words are true
Only takes a few words
To make a song Pete
If the words are true
Then they’ll do .
Only takes two tracks
To record my song Pete
Track One & Two will do
Only took two tracks to record
‘With The Beatles’ Pete
So I think two tracks will do.
Pete, I think two tracks will do.

Mushroom Fear
There’s a giant rabbit on a sky blue leaf
Playing a cool jazz riff
I saw a turbot on the way to work
Riding a bike that was a gift
Perception is deception
Nothings what it seems
Who’s to say we aren’t really
Living in a dream
I ate plate of mushrooms
Back in ‘96
You’d think by now the world would have stopped
Playing me these tricks
There’s a spider in the bathroom
Reading Baudelaire
Complaining in fluent german
Of web in his hair
Perception is deception
Nothings what it seems
Who’s to say we aren’t really
Living in a dream
I ate plate of mushrooms
Back in ‘96
You’d think by now the world would have stopped
Playing me these tricks
There’s three trick sisters winking at
The horses in the sky
I’m pretty fed up of asking
Why the wolves are in their eyes
Perception is deception
Nothings what it seems
Who’s to say we aren’t really
Living in a dream
I ate plate of mushrooms
Back in ‘96
You’d think by now the world would have stopped
Playing me these tricks
My mind gave birth the other day to a three legged dog
A dog which promptly asked me why
The house was wreathed in fog
Perception is deception
Nothings what it seems
Who’s to say we aren’t really
Living in a dream
I ate plate of mushrooms
Back in ‘96
You’d think by now the world would have stopped
Playing me these tricks.

Let’s Call You Adrian
Let’s call you Adrian
And what have you done?
Killed a lot of people
That’s what you’ve done
And the wicked terrorists
Claim you as one of their own
Even though the Middle East
Is probably Norfolk to you
Let’s call you Adrian
And what have you done?
Hurt a lot of people
Who probably never hurt anyone
It’s not like you were a teenager
You’re a man of my age
What filled you with hate
And so much rage?
Let’s call you Adrian
Because that is your name
I won’t call you Mohammed
Whatever you claim.

Hello Mr.White
And how are you?
Let’s see what the screen says
About you.
It’s says that you are up for review
Are you staying or are we through?
One – I don’t need to
Two – I don’t want to
Three is what I want to be
One – I don’t want to
Two – I don’t need to
Three is what I want to be
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
A love supreme
A love supreme
A love supreme
A love…
So Mr. White
You say it’s been up & down?
Since your little friend has not been around
You can go back anytime
And then everything will be fine
One – I don’t want to
Two – I don’t need to
Three is what I want to be
One – I don’t want to
Two – I don’t need to
Three is what I want to be
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
Let the boy boogie (Dance!)
A love supreme
A love supreme
A love supreme
A love…

The Land Of Make Believe
Under the oceans
Away from view
Our fearless Tridents
Are protecting me & you
Ask four times if the occasional test
Flies not to the East but rather the West
Where lies the land of the free
Unless you happen to be a refugee
They voted in a fascist President
Yep, I still find that hard to believe
Welcome to the land of make believe
Where nothing is real
And you can’t trust what you see
Welcome to the land of make believe
Where bullshit is king
And the liar bird sings
Right here in Palookaville
Our hospitals are full
And our beloved leaders talk & talk
But most of it is bull
Better close those borders they say
Shut ‘em up tight
We don’t them foreigners
Working here alright?
Welcome to the land of make believe
Where nothing is real
And you can’t trust what you see
Welcome to the land of make believe
Where bullshit is king
And the liar bird sings
Welcome to the land of make believe
You couldn’t make it up
It must be a dream
Welcome to the land of make believe
They can do what they want
And say what they please.
Off trots our PM to make a grubby pact
With the lord of misrule and alternative facts
She’s holding the hand
Of pussy grabbing drool
And there’s no way ever in the world
That’s ever gonna be cool
Welcome to the land of make believe
Where nothing is real
And you can’t trust what you see
Welcome to the land of make believe
Where bullshit is king
And the liar bird sings
Welcome to the land of make believe
You couldn’t make it up
It must be a dream
God bless America
God help us.
I’m not racist but,
I’m not racist but,
I’m not racist but,
I’m not racist but,
I’m not racist but,
You are racist but,
So just shut up.

Life Is Shit
Life is shit
And it’s only going to get worse
It’ll be shit
From the cradle
To the hearse
And when the rockets start to fly
That will be the time to say bye-bye
Life is shit
Always been that way
I spit in the eye
Of what the optimists say
And when even the cheery start to cry
That will be the time to say bye-bye
Life is shit
And it’s nothing new
Everyday a darker shade of blue
And when the bombs light up the sky
I’ll be happy to say bye-bye
Life is shit
And we are in the ruts
I’d end it all
If I had the guts
But I’m just a coward
With a pen
So I guess I’ll get up tomorrow
To all this shit again.
Tomorrow...
