| This record is intended to help you check your playing equipment |
| Without the use of measurement instruments |
| And remembering that the ultimate aim |
| Is to produce sound which is completely acceptable to the listener |
| I’m tired of fake fortunes being sold |
| I’m tired of my tyres burning rubber on the road |
| Tired of the distance, the lengths that I go to |
| Trying to get a bit of credit from you |
| Fuck that |
| Real love feels real |
| So I don’t need to try to synthesise |
| The feel |
| I’m trying to unlock doors with these musical keys |
| My friends puff trees, turn a Z to a G |
| Oh no |
| And all I do is twinkle the ivory keys |
| Indulgently, 'cause I do this for me |
| I know |
| And it just feels a little bit like |
| Somebody cut a hole in my pockets |
| 'Cause I’ve been trying to do this right |
| With no profits and the loss I can’t stop it |
| And consumption lies at the heart of my bad habits |
| I live in a world where I want but can’t have it |
| Tell me why that is the way it is |
| I need some real love, to feel real |
| But people all around me still try to leave the ties that feel |
| I’m trying to unlock doors with these musical keys |
| Eventually I smoke a Z to a G |
| Oh no |
| And all I do is twinkle the ivory keys |
| It’s no wonder why I make no Ps |
| I know |
| But it just feels a little bit like |
| Somebody cut a hole in my pockets |
| Cause I’ve been trying to do this right |
| With no profits and the loss I can’t stop it |
| 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 |
| It just feels a little bit like |
| Somebody cut a hole in my pockets |
| 'Cause I’ve been trying to do this right |
| With no profits and the loss I can’t stop it |
| And it just feels a little bit like |
| Somebody cut a hole in my pockets |
| 'Cause I’ve been trying to do this right |
| With no profits and the loss I can’t stop it |
