Basically

[Verse 1]

Textbook, I tried to clean the house before you woke up

I left recording finishing the same hook

I was singing when we come in from dinner

And there’s a tune on

That’s slightly reminiscent of an old song

That my father used to play when he was on one

They say I act just like him

[Pre-Chorus]

Basically, I do this all the time

Cause lately we, seem to have it right

[Chorus]

And when I finally found a place, I said I’d get you round

To talk through all the things you thought that I’d forget about

But nothing’s really changed, between then and now

We’re trying to play this off like it’s not all we think about

[Verse 2]

Textbook, I tried to count my blessings in the lift up

I’d leave but Steve is giving me the same look

That he gives me when I’ve turned up for stage late

And I’d be working my ticket but I know that I’ll be all night

I think we best just get The Balance right

[Pre-Chorus]

Cause basically, I do this all the time

And lately we, seem to have it right

[Chorus]

And when I finally found a place, I said I’d get you round

To talk through all the things you thought that I’d forget about

But nothing’s really changed, between then and now

We’re trying to play this off like it’s not all we think about

[Bridge]

And without a doubt

When I’m running out

Of ideas

I’ll be coming straight back here

[Chorus]

Cause when I finally found a place, I said I’d get you round

To talk through all the things you thought that I’d forget about

And nothing’s really changed, between then and now

We’re trying to play this off like it’s not all we think about

Cause basically, I do this all the time

And lately we, seem to have it right

Cause basically, I do this all the time

And lately we, seem to have it right

And basically, I do this all the time
