CMAT uses Ivor Novello speech to condemn fascism and Nigel Farage
CMAT took the Best Album award at Ivor Novellos and urged artists not to sit on the fence.
Lyrics
You said that I was religious 'Cause I hate Halloween I thought you read too much into it But now I see what you mean Why do I love Philip Larkin? He would've hated me I think our outlook is in common Unfortunately
But I had the nicest dress in class for my communion I've always tried to be the prettiest and the best I didn't know what money had to do with it And I feel like growing old is just a test
I've been changing my profession In my head every week I'm too old to dance for a living My indecision is bleak I'm never gonna own a house Or impress my family Shit happens and I'm still here Unfortunately
But I had the nicest dress in class for my communion And I've always tried to be the prettiest and the best I didn't know what money had to do with it And I feel like growing old is just a test
I wish I wasn't everything I hate Slice me up and serve me on God's plate I'll always be descending from that high Where do they serve the Eucharist on Friday nights?
I had the nicest dress in class for my communion I've always tried to be the prettiest and the best I didn't know what money had to do with it And I feel like growing old is just— I feel like growing old is just a test
