lyrics

I want to make, want to make, want to make it work
I can’t relate, can’t relate, can’t relate to her.
She finds out what I want to hear, and then she tells me so.
I wait with bated breath for her to let me go -

Liar, liar, pants on fire!
Liar, liar, pants on fire!
Don’t you spin this thing the other way.

I haven’t thought, haven’t thought this through.
I’m always jumping headfirst into what I try to do.

This plane is plummeting toward the cold hard ground,
I wait with bated breath for you to let me down.

I haven’t got a clue -
Still holding onto you...

I want to make, want to make, want to make it work.
I can’t relate, can’t relate, can’t relate to her.

It’s getting more confusing every single day -
I wait with bated breath to throw it all away.

The Is of Being
by Gemini Eye

Excellent lo-fi experimental psychedelic pop from London. "The Doula's Tulpa" wins award for most interesting title, and also the most creative use of a tremolo pedal since the Rumble. Fin's Contingency Plan

Boat Ramps
by Aiden Bradley

Atmospheric pop artist Aiden Bradley further refines his indie-folk-pop sound on Boat Ramps. The title track "Boat Ramps" has stood the test of time and his arrangement skills shine. Worth a spin. Fin's Contingency Plan

Canny and Hall
by Canny and Hall

Brisbane surreal comedy rock act Canny and Hall knock it out of the park with two ridiculous tunes on their debut. "The Beach" finally describes my constant, unending experiences at the beach. Quality Fin's Contingency Plan
