I try find answers and I waste my time, I contemplate this and I wonder why
I get stuck behind enemy lines
Step outside and the sun started burstin, the light came on me, I realised you were hurtin’
Day after day in the pressure cooker
Time flies by when you forget to look up
I'm not the saviour of despair and uncertainty, if you don’t mind buddy don’t count on me
Don’t ask me to flick the switch, I'll never light up your world.
Whole new brave world is what you hold in your hand, but don’t you know it's just another sham?
I'll form clay pigeons from my ideas now, for you to shoot down, with your doubt
I turn it on to play something for you, but nothings ever good on the radio
Is there a bottlo near? That’s all I wanna hear, just whisper in my ear. If there's a bottlo near
Don’t ask me to flick the switch, I’ll never light up your world
I got nowhere to go, I'm in deaths row, final pue nothing to do
I'm right here planet earth can't you see? There’s no time for fantasy
I dunno, I need another line, can’t you help me along this time
If you're not sure what you think sounds nice, this is what a broken record sounds like
Don’t ask me to flick the switch, I'll never light up your world

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
Recorded in a shipping container, the Australian artist's quirky second album is a love letter to 70’s classic rock, folk, and psychedelia. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 15, 2023
