Amazing
Evening comes around
Where the hell can you be found
You made me a promise
I guess I know what I can do with it
I'll take the tray
Check everyone's okay
Tidy away
It's not their fault I feel this way
Yes I am amazing x2
But then I have to be
With only what you've left me with
Yes I am amazing x2
Let me make it clear to you
And doing this for them and not for...
So you've hung around a little now
And you think you've understood
But it takes more than that
It's more than an act to be this good
I hear you got me a present
Won't you look at that
It's a badge
I think we're past that - way past that
Yes I am amazing x2
But then I have to be
With only what you've left me with
Yes I am amazing x2
Let me make it clear to you
And doing this for them and not for...
I am not an angel
I won't fly away
I need respect and care and a decent rate of pay
Yes I am amazing x2
But then I have to be
With only what you've left me with
Yes I am amazing x2
Let me make it clear to you
And doing this for them and not for...
You are amazing.
You are amazing.

Quarantine Song #1
Before the crisis
I thought there'd come a day
When we'd be past all this
Where I'd just go away
But I don't like this
And now I've got to say
That I would give my very soul
Give my last toilet roll
To stay
I make the best of it
Carry on like you do
I miss my kicks
Darling I miss you
When you've been in touch
I smile all day through
When I go out to walk alone
Around the block and back home
It's still true
Maybe I'm soft but I don't care
Maybe I'm daft, maybe yeah
Maybe I'm wrong but don't you dare
Say it's all me cos it can't be
I've seen it in your eyes and it's all there
And when this is all over
I'm coming round real quick
So you'd better have been doing all those workouts with Joe Wicks
Cos I wanna make up for all our lost time
Every little bit
Before I was just such a fool
So (fuck) these rules and seal it with a kiss.

How can I
Crush the butterfly
In my hand?
I want to understand
What you do.
How can you
Take me where
I can't bear

Judgy
It must be great to be right, Right all the time
No need to apologise
The moral majority
might decide they see
Some problem with me
That's our reminder to be kind
Though we get hurt sometimes
Hurt the ones we love
Don't beat yourself up
I'm not judging you
That's the last thing we need right now
You had all of it ('your shit)
How you deal with it
Well I won't be judgier than thou
Today we sat down to homeschool
Put aside our books
Changed the syllabus
Grenfell, Stephen Lawrence, stonewall.
Suffragettes - heroes not in history texts
There's a route (root) through to understand
The kid in the headlights
That gun in that hand
Our kid's legacy
Starts with you and me
I'm not judging you
That's the last thing we all need right now
Your had all of it ('your shit)
How you deal with it
Well I won't be judgier than thou
When the law is an ass
Even if you wrote it does that mean you can pass?
Or only when it is proved
Will you apologise?
Now come on, that's rude
If you ask me what Jesus would do
I suggest you read John Chapter 2
Keep on turning the tables like the Lord taught us to
I'm not judging you
That's the last thing the world needs right now
You had all of it ('your shit)
How you deal with it
Well I won't be judgier than thou

The Wish
You wish you'd woken with her
With her curled around you
You'd wrap yourself around her
Oh you could drown in her
If you made love
She'd fit you like a glove
She'd fill you up
Like nothing ever does
You say it doesn't matter
To the ghost in the mirror
She's just another
But she's more than a lover
She's in your dreams
In your melodies
She's in your veins
It's more than just games
And all that you know
You let her go
Now you don't know
What to do
She's like the April rain
So unpredictable
Like an old refrain
You can't quite recall
Here she comes again
A walking contradiction
A work of her own fiction.
But it's all true
All true
You couldn't linger
You had to leave her
You wish you'd woken with her

Rebel Heart
It don't look good on paper
Paper's not what I'm looking at
Loving you ain't easy
Might as well put this jelly in a string bag
What shall I do with you
Pick you up and play with you and put you back before things get too fraught
Maybe not
My Rebel Heart
My Rebel Heart
I can't make you love me
You can't make me stop
Loving your Rebel Heart
Maybe it's not what you deserve
It's amazing what changes when you get the nerve
Maybe it's not enough
But it's something, it's us
I remember
*When things get tough
In life and love
You get what you get
The trick is always just to
Make the best of what you've got
And I'll make it with you yet
My Rebel Heart
My Rebel Heart
I can't make you love me
You can't make me stop
Loving your Rebel Heart
(It repeats from *)

The Better Man
Darling cause you're different
In a way that makes kids tease
And adults aren't much better
And you will meet some of these
I will be there for you
I'll do everything I can
But you will have to be the better man my son
You will have to be the better man
They'll misunderstand you
And put you in a box
Make fun of you and anger you
And yeah bully you lots
But you can be a hero
If you can take the knocks
And still be the better man my son
And still be the better man
When you were a baby
I'd step outside the van
Take you for a walk
In your 2nd hand pram
The way you are
The way that people think I am
I have had to be the better Mam my son
I have had to be the better Mam
There are wrongs and there are rights
We should not disguise
Your Nan'll tell you
There are still folks with signs in their eyes
That read 'no blacks no irish'
Don't you apologise
For who you are now you are a man my son
Who you are now you are a man

Bubbles
In these ugly times
I miss your beauty
Spy it in my dreams
Then the bubble bursts away from me
I wake up
Longing for your touch
I can't remember
Exactly how it used to feel
Alone but not alone x3
Keep calm and carry on
I blew bubbles in the sky
Everyone's been popped by life
But I still dream
There are bubbles everywhere
In every building- I still dare
I will believe
We'll be together
I miss you so
I don't know
How you've changed
Cos I have, nothing's stayed the same
A broken heart
Like my car
I don't have the wherewithal to fix it right away
Alone but not alone x3
Keep calm and carry on
I blew bubbles in the sky
Everyone's been popped by life
But I still dream
There are bubbles everywhere
In every building- I still dare
I will believe
We'll be together
In our own bubbles with our own troubles
I worried that we've stopped our ears
To everybody else's fears
I miss the mess
Of the human press
But when I reach out
Will you still be here?
Alone but not alone x3
Keep calm and carry on
I blew bubbles in the sky
Everyone's been popped by life
But I still dream
There are bubbles everywhere
In every building- I still dare
I will believe
We'll be together
I got a message
It was unexpected
It reminded me of something you said
I can't get it out my head
I blew bubbles in the sky
Everyone's been popped by life
But I still dream
There are bubbles everywhere
In every building- I still dare
I will believe
We'll be together
