She Yells Jack, whilst i'm picking up glasses, I look back, a look that is priceless
Coz she's got eyes as blue as the sky, and a smile as wide as the sea
But I can't think straight, nor can I look away, whilst she asks how I've been
She goes “I don’t live so far away, maybe you can see some day, watch something that we've both seen”
I finish late though maybe I'll come say hello, as innocent as it seem
She Yells Jack, and I've forgotten what the time was, I doubled checked what time my shift was
I'm still drunk, still high and I might, not make through the gates this time
I don’t care, I don’t mind, fuck a payslip I’ll join the line
Cos she's got eyes that sparkle at night and a smile that sends me insane
I am hopeless, but hopeful she’ll say yes, ’I’d like to see you again’
She’s got a new haircut, I wonder if she’s got that old boyfriend
Who knows if things went differently, for a little that could’ve been me
She Yells “soft”, as I'm coming up for the pocket, I look up, with a cheeky grin yeah I got it
Well I go and grab the schooners, only if I can see ya sooner, and with a train ride home a bunch of numbers in my phone, I let her know, how I've been
Coz she’s got eyes that shoot through the sky, a stare like missiles that fire through the rain
I'd wait for the sun, even a Sunday even if that Sunday was forever away
She's got a new haircut, I wonder if she's got that old boyfriend
Who knows if things went differently, for a little that could’ve been me

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
