Perfect Blue

[Intro]

Hello!

Uhm, if you are watching this, it is currently 11pm on the second of october, which means in an hour, in this country, the new album will be out, One Simple Trick by Lovejoy will be in the world

Yeah, I wanted to pass the time by playing a little song from the record, it's a song about, the world at large is scary, uhm, and the last stanza is, is talking to you, the audience, uh, a classic among men

[Song starts]

[Verse]

Got a pen and a napkin, name a number you want

Wish I knew all the maths to figure out her songs

Haven't seen you in weeks, blumming the same dive bars

With the prettiеst pageants in the streetview car

If you'rе up and down, if you're down and out

I can be your lifeline you can throw me out

If your love runs dry, I can go without

Pluck my heart from me, I'm still sleeping sound

[Chorus]

And the bastards they will talk

But not a word of you

My perfect blue, ooh

You can take me as you are

I'm going down with you

My perfect blue, ooh

[Verse]

Waiting for the rapture, hear a car alarm

Boredom's coming at you, it won't be too long

You know the waiting kills you 'fore the hemlock does

Strangers know who's built to stomach hoping for

If you've broken down, if you're rolling out

I'm your frozen sweat, your smirking sense of doubt

Feel the world you spill, fronted to teeth you're numb

Leaking smiles on a gasket spilled around your tongue

[Chorus]

And the bastards they will talk

But not a word of you

My perfect blue, ooh

You can take me as you are

I'm going down with you

My perfect blue, ooh

[Bridge]

I'm afraid I broke a string

And so now I must be leaving

It's a shame we couldn't finish this

With some wine, some sunday evening, oh

I hope you will remember

Oh, to stay just a monday more

[Outro]

Don't try this at home

Don't try this at home

Please god don't try this at home
