shimmer in the bay at dawn
come in late and sneak
hear the doorway creak
drunk on a beach
drunk on a beach
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn
play the weather report
a storm in every port
at best you’re blessed
at worst you’re cursed
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn
look along the coast
coffe and some toast
let’s keep it cheap
drunk on a beach
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn
they reversed their suicide
they never really wanted to die
just out of reach
drunk on a beach
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn
shimmer in the bay at dawn

Open Mic Night
03:23
|
|||
all the rats who run through the beer garden
sing the "open mic night has arrived !"
gnawing bruschetta, tumbling tomatoes
the leaves fall like tedious verse..
there's a house guitar
that slips in and out of tune
play for a pint, play a set at the open mic night
all the dogs who run to exercise in beer gardens
know open mic night's arrived
will we rate it high ? checking out trip advisor
full of the heed we don't take…
have you felt small shame, like tripping on a paving stone ?
or hailing a bus that steams past you waiting ?
well then you'll know that open mic night has arrived
all the cats who sun their lazy fur in beer gardens
know open mic night has arrived
there's an anxious type, making that first foray and
earnest the swansong nicks off...

(Do The) Nature Walk
02:41
|
|||
to see the universe,
find a forest wilderness
do (do do do do)
the nature walk...
between every two trees,
lies a door to a new world
do (do do do do)
the nature walk...
in the deep green woods
going out is going in, and
going in is going out...
quiet with your thoughts
a call back to the wild
do (do do do do)
the nature walk...
the river flows through us
we are a part of her
do (do do do do)
the nature walk...
in the deep green woods
going out is going in, and
going in is going out...

Time Capsule
03:34
|
|||
when you find old photographs
look behind look around the back
did you find the time capsule?
when you see old films on tv
they inspire your memories
like a time capsule
on cobbled streets we meet
roaming roman roads...
the scent of cooking hits the nose
every hour on the hour
counting every chime
the bells they ring out time
fill the bottles up with wine
we'll drink a toast to every ghost
in the library who poured
their wisdom out...
their wisdom out in words
we'll drink a toast to every verse
to every struggle to be heard
no lo-fi no hi-fi, washed in the tide
no wi-fi they just left a time capsule
every hour on the hour
counting every chime
as the bells they ring out time
when you find old photographs
look behind look around the back
did you find the time capsule?
