Ginger 02:14
lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh she's hiding something Reciting something A pretty prayer Or a curse that will ensnare Any boy Make him her toy Her teddy bear Yet still she looks so scared Maybe she hates this guy Maybe she's shy [Chorus] And treading gingerly her ginger lily Perfume leaves its trace So he waits there maybe wails there just Inhales its warm embrace because she was She was Oh yes she was She was All that [Verse 2] Bet she's reclining somewhere While he's pining somewhere She's sipping tea Prepping for tonight's party He'll be there And so aware Of where she'll be And which parts of him she'll see Oh he's a stealthy spy Till she brushes by [Chorus] And treading gingerly her ginger lily Perfume leaves her trace And so he waits there oh he wails there he's Impaled by its embrace because she was She was Oh yes she was She was All that

[Verse 1] Night falls on the weight of it all And do you hear me calling Two feet  away Is that too far to make you stay? What are these insects on They seem so free Even happy Do you feel the same? Oh can’t we play a game? [Chorus] Can’t we be like Drugged up dragon flies Or those ants with wide green eyes Won’t you dance with me beneath the coral moon If I’m a Drugged up dragon fly Or an ant with wide green eyes Must I dance alone beneath the coral moon I tell you Dawn can’t come too soon Only then will I forget the coral moon Dawn can’t come too soon When I’ll forget the invitations you refused When I forget the coral moon [Verse 2] Too shy Says the devil inside you Won’t you even try to Shake him away Is he too close to let you stay? What are these insects on They seem so free Even happy Do you feel the same? Oh can’t we play a game? [Chorus] Can’t we be like Drugged up dragon flies Or those ants with wide green eyes Won’t you dance with me beneath the coral moon If I’m a Drugged up dragon fly Or an ant with wide green eyes Must I dance alone beneath the coral moon I tell you Dawn can’t come too soon Only then will I forget the coral moon Dawn can’t come too soon When I’ll forget the invitations you refused When I forget the coral moon [Bridge] Oh what does it take to make a grown man fly? Too much more than it takes to make a young girl cry I feel so lonesome when you pass me by You know you’re more wholesome when your high Oh what does it take to make a grown man fly? Too much more than it takes to make a young girl cry I feel so lonesome when you pass me by You know you’re more wholesome when your high [Chorus] Can’t we be like Drugged up dragon flies Or those ants with wide green eyes Won’t you dance with me beneath the coral moon If I’m a Drugged up dragon fly Or an ant with wide green eyes Must I dance alone beneath the coral moon

Her 03:26

[Verse 1] She's photo shy, she's knowledge high Behind her blow dry She combs her hair when there's no one there To see her She's "not so young" - she's lost someone Sure sped her setting sun She doesn't know how far I'd go To see her [Chorus] Her Her [Verse 2] Slinks out of stress into a borrowed dress She flaunts her feigned finesse Hides from the sun - don't want anyone To see her She plays okay, but everyday Her polish fades away When a girl's unsure she gets a manicure And then she bites it all away, revealing [Chorus] Her (Revealing) Her [Bridge] Each collision with her Plants a vision of her In the soils of my mind Each collision with her Plants a vision of her In the soils of my mind Visions of her Visions of her Collisions with her Visions with her Her Her Why won't she dance with me beneath the coral moon (Why won't she dance with me) Why won't she dance with me beneath the coral moon (Why won't she dance with me) Why won't she dance with me beneath the coral moon Why won't she dance with me beneath the coral moon I just wanna dance with her I just wanna dance with her (Why won't she dance with me, why won't she dance with me) I wanna dance with her (Why won't she dance with me, why won't she dance with me) I wanna dance with her

Wanderlust 04:15
lyrics

[Verse 1] Fall in love in a far flung place Drown your dreamboat in a dreamlike haze Send it sailing through your veins Stay there flailing; lay there faint Sweat your way to the citadel Swelter, sway, till all seems swell Cold ice cream to break the fast How long will the wonder last? [Chorus] Wanderlust is lust for nothing Wandering away from the strain of a something It's dark But I think I'll take the long road It's dark But I don't want to get home I don't want to get home [Verse 2] Try to forge a foreign tongue Wish you'd learnt when you were young Seldom suited to the sun Ever too tired to have fun Stitching bridges, fleeting friends Singing round the river bends Painting streets with passion past How long will the wonder last? [Chorus] Wanderlust is lust for nothing Wandering away from the strain of a something It's dark But I think I'll take the long road It's dark But I don't want to get home I don't want to get home [Bridge] It's a lust to be lost till the lust is lost It's the wonder of a wander till the wonder wanders off [Chorus] Wanderlust is lust for nothing Wandering away from the strain of a something It's dark But I think I'll take the long road It's dark But I don't want to get home I don't want to get home

Big Dreamer 03:20
lyrics

[Verse 1] Roses red, violets blue Classic like 'me and you' Bittersweet, that bit of me That looks for more, secretly Bigger dreams, of faerie queens The make believe, my nicotine It stands between every scene; We're smitten small, we're smithereens [Chorus] I'd rather live my life in fantasy Than be with you and only be me I know it's sad, and that I'm bad, to let you go But I'm a big dreamer, and dreams mean I'm never alone [Verse 2] Disney girl in her Disney world Sunken treasure and strings of pearls Her dreams are bold, but emotions dulled Into love she cannot be lulled Though now grown, her childish moans Dread being woken to ugly tones Her dreams are sown, in a mind unknown A faerie queen in her frosty throne [Chorus] She'd rather live her life in fantasy Than be with you and only be She knows it's sad, and that she's bad, to let you go But she's a big dreamer, and dreams mean she's never alone [Bridge] Raised on a diet of Disney and dolls Tumbling through daydreams, down the rabbit hole Endless potential with the whimsical Endlessly feeding a hunger for more Roses red, violets blue, classic like me and you Bittersweet, that bit of me, that looks for more, secretly [Chorus] I'd rather live my life in fantasy Than be with you and only be me I know it's sad, and that I'm bad, to let you go But I'm a big dreamer, and you're not enough on your own
