Track Lyrics
Villa Rosie Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Practice doesn't make perfect when you're interbreeding
Speaking drivel, can it get confused with heavy breathing?
Mixing drinks at water holes get snarled up in the suburbs
Meandering through this and that, you're suspected of vagueness
[Chorus]
When work is done, go to Villa Rosie every night
So tasty
Go form a queue at Villa Rosie every night
So tasty
[Verse 2]
Across the common every day, you come across the fine line
But wearing boots can prevent the leeches in the long grass
Eating between meals stifles the appetite, is it healthy?
Coming home, that nagging doubt there in your belly
[Chorus]
And all the while at Villa Rosie every night
You're tasty
A sweeter life at Villa Rosie every night
So taste
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
All losers come to Villa Rosie every night
They're waiting
So form a queue at Villa Rosie every night
So tasty
Don't break your own back at Villa Rosie every night
We're tasting
A sweeter life at Villa Rosie every night
So tasty
Coping Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Primal, evil, what am I?
Tongue-tied 'til the day I die
There's no love made with mermaids
It's just distraction, so they say
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm too tired to care about it
Can't you see this in my face, my face?
[Chorus]
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
[Verse 2]
It's a sorry state you're getting in
The same excuse is wearing thin
There's no self-control left in me
What was not will never will be
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm too tired to care about it
Can't you see this in my face, my face?
[Chorus]
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm too tired to care about it
Can't you see this in my face?
The emphasis is on coping
Can't you see this in my face, my face?
[Chorus]
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
When I feel this strange
Can I go through this again?
(Could I be dreaming or am I just coping?)
[Outro]
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
Turn It Up Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
Kazoo, kazoo, you are mine
Kazoo, kazoo, every time
[Chorus]
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
[Verse 1]
Anyway you choose
Anyway you choose at all
Some days you get too much
Some days it all gets too much
[Pre-Chorus]
Kazoo, kazoo you are mine
Why do you turn your back on me?
[Chorus]
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 2]
Anyway you choose
Anyway you choose at all
Some days you do too much
Some days it all gets too much
[Pre-Chorus]
Kazoo, kazoo, you are mine
Kazoo, kazoo, every time
[Chorus]
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
Turn it up, turn it off, turn it in
