Oh-Cherry-Oh

New song…  🙂

First Draft…

V1

It’s not about religion

The spelling of Judaism or Buddhism

Fascism racism or baptism

A tear or cry in sanity

Fly-baited lies on panoramic television

Breaking tides n rolling back a hellish vision

It’s not about black or white slack or tight

Straight or gay a mocking jay

A fear we’ll die on judgement day

The cutting of the entree

Adhering to their claustrophobic atmosphere

What about never losing sight & putting up a fight

Like Sia & her chandelier catching fire

Breaking down the doors into left or right

Stepping outta the ego into a world-of-vision

Saying cheerio to poverty

Freeing spirits lost to immorality

Letting in immortality

An empty gun, a sprinkling from the sun

Chorus

Oh-Cherry-Oh we got the gung-ho

Where love resides n hearts they strive

Oh-Cherry-Oh let’s give em the akimbo

Where love presides n hearts they drive

Oh-Cherry-Oh we got the bakin dough

Where love combines n hearts collide

Oh-Cherry-Oh let’s give em the seeds to sow

Where love divides n hearts decide

V2

It’s not about the car you drive at twenty-five

The horsepower of your Zenvo

Who’s got the biggest Gyro

Whether you move too fast or kinda slow

Or the money you blow-for-the-show

Those pimps n biatches

Shadows hiding in the tempo

Moscodians warding off comedians

A book-of-faith coded into idiom

There’s still time to rip those goggles off

Step up into a rocket-blasting Van Gough

Ed shearin back those teenage wolves

Till flowers bloom outta shopping aisles

And right about now our souls are out

So lets be the biggest-selling show in town

Yeah it’s time for the take-down

So spit away the hate before it’s too late

Cause it’s time to make a fuckn sound

Chorus

Oh-Cherry-Oh we got the gung-ho

Where love resides n hearts they strive

Oh-Cherry-Oh let’s give em the akimbo

Where love presides n hearts they drive

Oh-Cherry-Oh we got the bakin dough

Where love combines n hearts collide

Oh-Cherry-Oh let’s give em the seeds to sow

Where love divides n hearts decide

Red

V1

When did cruel become the new kind
Back when love crossed the line
Maybe it’s better that we can’t read minds
Who knows what we might find
I always say too much that I can’t rewind
Are we running outta time to turn it around
Or are we standing at the edge of the end
Should we leave it all behind
What’s it gonna take
Shattered glass, slammed doors
Or something more oh no
It’ll never come to that instead
I’ll be gone before the dawn


Chorus

Oh my love…why am I so downhearted
Like you’re already gone
And I can’t find my way back in
Oh my love…it’s like I’ve been discarded
Is there something that you’re hiding
I can’t find my way back in
Oh my love…your heart is so damn guarded
Take me back to where we started
Back to Red from blue, Back to Red from blue


V2

When did the our stars misalign
Back when love was colour blind
Baby what happened who turned the signs
Or did I inject the divine with cyanide
I always beat myself up ’til I’m redesigned
Are we running outta time to turn it around
Or are we staring down the barrel of a gun
Wondering around this empty town
What’s it gonna take
Shattered glass, slammed doors
Or something more oh no
It’ll never come to that instead
I’ll be gone before the dawn


Oh my love…why am I so downhearted
Like you’re already gone
And I can’t find my way back in
Oh my love…it’s like I’ve been discarded
Is there something that you’re hiding
I can’t find my way back in
Oh my love…your heart is so damn guarded
Take me back to where we started
Back to Red from blue, Back to Red from blue

Back to Red from blue

Running From the Money

V1

They say you can only pull out what you put in

But we give n give it up for all the wrong things

I say we quit the glitch n live the dream

Souls on fire playing in a candy stream

It won’t take a mathematician to figure this out

You’re one of a kind all you gotta do visualize the prize

Pre-Chorus

So stop tripping on that treadmill going uphill

It’s 3am in Nashville and we’re right on time

CHORUS

I’m so sorry honey but I’m Running From the Money

Cause I’m an all or nothing kinda girl

And is we’re not doing what we love we might as well die

I’m so sorry honey but I’m Running From the Money

Cause I’m tired of living this lie

I’m gonna spread my wings and fly

I’m so sorry honey but I’m Running from the Money

And cashing in the dollars of my vibe

It’s what I’ve gotta do to survive

(That’s why I’m Running from the Money)

V2

They say you’ve gotta be young if you’re gonna win

Wearing bling on bling can’t fool us with fake things

I say we quit the glitch n live the dream

Our goal’s up in the air so let’s make it something unforgettable

It might take a little magic blooming flowers from a hat

But just like a samurai you’ll be the wizard of your mind

Pre-Chorus

So stop tripping on that treadmill going uphill

It’s 3am in Nashville and we’re right on time

CHORUS (x2)

I’m so sorry honey but I’m Running From the Money

Cause I’m an all or nothing kinda girl

And if we’re not doing what we love we might as well die

I’m so sorry honey but I’m Running From the Money

Cause I’m tired of living this lie

I’m gonna spread my wings and fly

I’m so sorry honey but I’m Running from the Money

And cashing in the dollars of my vibe

It’s what I’ve gotta do to survive

(That’s why I’m Running from the Money)

(Rap intro)

I’m done gettn fukd in the head

With an astronomically-sized

Digitised c*%*k…

Bring me a sound engineer 

Someone with good ears

A technician to fix my gear

A couple of fans n real cheers

Yeah I want the world to hear

What’s been up in the last ten years 

Cause running from the money

Means I’m running outta time 

As for the media it’s a rainbow mess

Scribbles n graffitiia 

Reflect my state of mind

Gimme the best and I’ll do the rest 

A producer too cause that’s the glue

Gimme a brand I earned that badge 

I do believe loyalty deserves royalties

I’ll dish it out loud n make em proud

Technics, Native Instruments

Traktor n Hello Kitty

Honda accord you shared my journey

(I want Goldie back but a Jazz’ll do)

Converse walked me through the blue

(JDRF I’m right behind ya)

And while we’re at it a manager too

Of course I’m gonna need a lawyer

Yeah that’s a no-brainer

Bring it the fuk on

So I can write the next song â€¦

(Verse)

All I want is perfection but all I get is rejection of what I’m projecting

It feels like regression a three-dimensional lesson served up as a lemon

Back in the day there’s no way you’d win the lot without the zing

And not without that invisible thing laced into diamond wings

Now it’s big lips n counterfeit manuscripts

As for the fashion industry well that’s a new rap for another day

I’m living proof of disparity all I want is clarity but can’t even score charity

Yeah I’m tired of singularity I need a team to marry me

I’d wear that king bling on my finger forever but where are ya?

I can’t even score one click not even a wet-faced dog lick

As for all the fake shit yeah the tik tok soft dick mimicking

Always torn between the mystic munching at the bit like a misfit

What’s the world gonna make of this hissy fit splattered over zero fans

Startn to feel like I got my talent from the bottom of a cereal packet

A tweety bird slammed into defeat rockn centre court without a racquet

Been doing this such a long time it’s a crime of misaligned

Is anyone out there or are you too blind is it that friggn hard to find

Stopped point blank guitar in the corner with guts hanging out

Lookn around at the silent sounds of the bomb I’ve left behind

Yeah it’s a long way spinning to the top down from the mess I’m in

Tryna sing the be bop with a sound so unprofessional…

Here’s to the records never produced that could’ve untied the noose

I’m so sorry mum I couldn’t save you from a million miles away

I wanted to be your saviour yeah this was gonna save ya…

Love Shack

He said I like you pretty well

And your get-up looks swell

The sand in your hair

And the ocean air

Motorbikes revving

Into bee sting heaven

Yeah everybody’s beaming

A psychedelic dream

Yeah we’re heading on down

To the Love Shack

Gonna get our groove on

At the Love Shack

Oh no there ain’t no rules

Only lovers n fools

So we’re heading on down

To the Love Shack

She said I gotta stack of cash

So I’m gonna be brash

Win a big teddy bear

At the seaside fair

So we shoot tin cans

Till the sun goes down

Yeah pink cotton candy

Into ice cream blue

Yeah we’re heading on down

To the Love Shack

Gonna get our groove on

At the Love Shack

Oh no there ain’t no rules

Only lovers n fools

At the Love Shack

So we’re heading on down

To the Love Shack

We jumped the queue

Cause everyone he knew

Gotta heart shaped stamp

And a festival map

Main stage pumping

Into B 52s

Yeah bass in our face

As the beat kicks in

Yeah we’re heading on down

To the Love Shack

Gonna get our groove on

At the Love Shack

Oh no there ain’t no rules

Only lovers n fools

At the Love Shack

So we’re heading on down

To the Love Shack

Baby baby baby

Love Shack Love Shack Love shack

I Didn’t Mean To Hurt You Baby

No capo

C Amin F#/G Amin

Chorus

I didn’t mean to hurt you baby

I’m so sorry if I made you cry

If I could spin back the hands of time

I’d make it so we’d never ever never

Have to live it again

Verse 1

I know the words are rushing through your mind

And it’s blurring everything in sight

But I’m here to put up a fight

Yeah I wanna make things right

So I never ever lose you again

Chorus

I didn’t mean to hurt you baby

I’m so sorry if I made you cry

If I could spin back the hands of time

I’d make it so we’d never ever never

Have to live it again

Verse 2

Maybe i’m a day too late this time round

Or should’ve waited till tomorrow

To let you know I’m hurting too

Or maybe there’s another girl

Waiting at the end of your line

Chorus

I didn’t mean to hurt you baby

I’m so sorry if I made you cry

If I could spin back the hands of time

I’d make it so we’d never ever never

Have to live it again

Outro

I’ll be strong and walk away

I’ll try not to run but the sun’s gone now

And I just had to let you know…

Chorus

I didn’t mean to hurt you baby

I’m so sorry if I made you cry

If I could spin back the hands of time

I’d make it so we’d never ever never

Have to live it again

Without You

No capo at this stage

Am G F G

V1
If I met you on the street tomorrow 
Would you stop to say hello
Even though yesterday 
You forgot to say goodbye
This game you're playing 
With my heart 
It's tearing me apart 
I'm just an empty shell 
Drowning in sorrow 

Chorus
Yeah I'm blue without you 
So thanks for the pain 
And for the shame
It's true I wouldn't have this song
Without You 

V2
Another day passes without a word
I'm praying that the lord 
Takes care or your heart
Better than I did
If we never meet again
Please remember back to when 
We were happier than 
Living in a dream

Rap
Oh yeah it's so sad
Never got to ride your bike
Pressed against your back 
Off the beaten track 
Down at the beach 
Toasting the sun 
Candlelit dinners 
Or casino winners 
Twin showers 
And 3D cinemas
More flowers  
I gotta do it all now
Without You 

Chorus
Yeah I'm blue without you 
So thanks for the pain 
And for the shame
It's true I wouldn't have this song
Without You 

Under The Act

Nothing’s wrong with personality mixed with gravity
Monday to Sunday we got work to do n bills to pay
Silent victims of cards the world bombards
We’re all unique with different attitudes
Sometimes we step outta body into mind
It’s just a nervous breakdown

Under the Act we’re acting out boarded in
Under the Act can’t get out can’t get out
Torn apart with broken hearts
Dying for freedom to be rebirthed


They take snapshots over time n jot it down
Without your life story without even knowing ya
They wanna give you a label a diagnostic curfew
Schizo flippso polar bears n lost souls
You gotta knock down the nurses door just to getta coffee
The whole damn place is cursed all tryna get there first

Under the Act we’re acting out boarded in
Under the Act can’t get out can’t get out
Torn apart with broken hearts
Dying for freedom to be rebirthed


Laptops n phones charged up in metal lockers
It’s a shambles the best authority can offer
Occupational therapy doing puzzles like five year-olds
Plastic coated pillows and the list goes on and on
Wishin for cat eyes to see through this darkness
So if you’re gonna flip out, come join us

Under the Act we’re acting out boarded in
Under the Act can’t get out can’t get out
Torn apart with broken hearts
Dying for freedom to be rebirthed

You can see for yourselves the biggest head mash
Is happening behind closed doors
Detained with our remainsShackled n chained
Insane on their conveyor belt

Under the Act we’re acting out boarded in
Under the Act can’t get out can’t get out
Torn apart with broken hearts
Dying for freedom to be rebirthed
