There’s a game in progress The balls hit into a grey area No visual contact Culprit joins the search Aye, Aye, Aye Is what they said to the batsman Aye, Aye, Aye Sent him on his way Feel the game, feel the game, feel the game ,yeah I feel the game is over My mind’s buzzing in a grey area That nuggety shot selection Lost my favourite ball Aye, Aye, Aye Is what they said to the batsman Aye, Aye, Aye Sent him on his way I’m involved in a dream of backyard cricket With a rubbish bin for a wicket The tennis ball gets schmacked to the bottom of the garden And I go to retrieve it When I get there immediately I think I’ve found the ball But more and more balls just keep appearing I’m involved in a dream of backyard cricket With a rubbish bin for a weekend The tennis ball is the same bloody colour as the garden And I can not retrieve it When I get there immediately I think I’ve found the ball But more and more balls just keep appearing I see the ball it’s in the distance But in my eyes it has no existence

Bubble Buzz 04:01
Think of someone who is set in their ways Living each day in their bubble, nothing is wrong They hide from reality and the world outside Never believing that they could be stuck inside It may look weak from the outside, hard to break out Never escape from their bubble, too many doubts Thought by now they would realise, open your eyes Why can’t they, figure out, the buzz? Saturday mornings are always ingrained, in their brains Dropping each one off at their different games, it’s the same They try to out do each other and compare their dreams. Or something as simple as, cheaper baked beans It may look weak from the outside, hard to break out Never escape from their bubble, too many doubts Thought by now they would realise, open your eyes Why can’t they, figure out, the buzz?

Joe the Hoe 08:56
Stumbling home from there, for the hundredth time Having fun, now it’s done, there’ll be another time This the pattern of the secret single life Lines are good and she pulls them round, sharper than a knife But this bird, was in for a big surprise Some guys can see straight through, deceitful, filthy lies Time after time, you gotta keep those birds away You can’t let yourself, believe a word they say They’ll try and milk you for, every cent to your name They’ll only be by your side, while you’re in the game When he raised his voice, she would disappear Suspicions high from all the lies, it was everything she’d feared So he went to town, amazed by what he saw She was hooking up with another slug, in front of me So I guess that you, could say that that was that He kept his cool, he’s not the fool, he had smelled the rat Time after time, you gotta keep those birds away You can’t let yourself, believe a word they say They’ll try and milk you for, every cent to your name They’ll only be by your side, while you’re in the game Stumbling home from there, for the hundredth time Having fun, now its done, there’ll be another time They’ll try and milk you for, every cent to your name They’ll only be by your side, while you’re in the game

Hobo 04:07
Lonely man Walking on the wrong side of that fence He’s got no purpose Where’s his friends? I know I’d never Meet a man who smelt like fish, yeah I know I’d never Take a shot Dirty man Walking through the rain looking for that bone No direction A gloomy month and nothing for him to show I know I’d never Meet a man who smelt like shit, yeah I know I’d never Take a shot Traffic, from four ways Not eating or sleeping from day to day Filthy’s your name after nights on the street The dump’s a place where you and him, you and him meet I know I’d never Lonely man Walking on the wrong side of that fence He’s got no purpose Tell me, where’s his friends? I know I’d never Meet a man who smelt like shit, yeah I know I’d never Take a shot, and miss

Do Things 07:02
I’m never on time It’s never on purpose Buzzy thoughts in mind I start to get nervous As I think about the little things That make people wonder In this spell that we’re under Are we just numbers? How does that old saying go? A tree will fall and nobody will know I’ve always wondered what happens at night Do strange things happen when there is no light? Do things come down from up above? Do things come up from down below? I bring you love As I think about the little things That make people wonder In this spell that we’re under Are we just numbers? Is there a place where we should go? Cos I don’t know To ask the questions that we’re meant to know Everything’s clear but I’m still blind In your mind Searching for answers that I’ll never find Do things come down from up above? Do things come up from down below? I bring you love Do things come down from up above? Do things come up from down below?

Can of Worms 03:59
Faces from before, drifting through the floor Too many cats to count, have we got the right amount? Looked up at the roof I looked up at the roof Buzzed out at what I saw Dropped into my hand something I’d never seen before Whole room went silent Held it closer to my eye Whole room went silent All raised fingers to their mouths I’ve seen you before, sifting round the door Looking for a way to get out, trying to figure out what it’s all about Looked up at the roof Looked up at the roof Buzzed out at what I saw Dropped into my hand something I’d never seen before Whole room went silent Held it closer to my eye Whole room went silent All raised fingers to their mouths

Frozen Cat 03:39
Walking home from school I came up to this cat Frozen to the bone I thought what’s up with that To bring it back to life Is what I desired I didn’t think twice To put it by the fire And in the morning I woke to my surprise There’s a cat before my eyes Not frozen to the bone So I brought it in my home To bring it back to life Is what I desired I didn’t think twice To put it by the fire Whose is this cat?
8.
Blackie the cat has gone missing From the bottom of pine hill road He is almost completely black With a small white patch on his belly Big green eyes, medium length fur He has a flat nose being part Persian Friendly but a little flighty To give them back their cat Is what I decided I took the pussy down the road And they were reunited To give them back their cat Is what I decided

Cliche 03:40
Sunrays are streaming Clear skies just beaming Thinking back to the time when things were easier Oh how things change Down at the shop, iceblock why not? Remember the time when and ice block was less than a dollar Now is the time so just use it To get back that feeling Now is the time so just use it To get back that feeling The sun shines lower As the long white cloud mists over Don’t forget the bottle opener Gonna have a real good time yeah I told ya Down at the shop, hot chips y nut? Remember the time when a bucks chips was only a dollar Now is the time so just use it To get back that feeling Now is the time so just use it To get back that feeling

A cloud is always changing An illusion of sight As the day grows older They fade into the night If you look at these changes It may turn on a light And raise to you the question Of who’s wrong and who’s right It doesn’t matter where or who you are You can’t foresee what’s meant to be afar Moving along towards the unknown Each day unfolds in a different way Where did the cloud go? Who knows moving in direction with the cloud so Where did the cloud fly? Could we all fly high in the sky? Where would you go, what would you see, which cloud would you be? Imagine a cloud, different places to you and me Everything is changing An illusion of sight As you get older You fade into the night If you look at these changes It may turn on a light And raise to you the question Of who’s wrong and who’s right It doesn’t matter where or who you are You can’t foresee what’s meant to be afar Moving along towards the unknown Each day unfolds in a different way
