Get out on the town
Live your life, don't look back
I know thats its hard
Its complex, its a mess
Your diction - unsurpassed
You've got style, you've got class
Circumstance has been cruel
You've got drive, you've been schooled.
Isabelle this is not a love song
This is about our futures
Everythings going to be ok
(Everything will be ok)
At work you're all there
Dilligent, perfect hair,
You're so organised
That should be recognised
But when days are through you dont know what to think
You latch onto things that remind you of him
Isabelle this is not a love song
This is about our futures
Everythings going to be ok
(Everything will be ok)
Angled stares in a late night corridor
Education won't cut it anymore
Apparently having the best time anyway
Carrying on as if this was any day
Heart won't let you let go - not properly
I'm optimistic that you'll get there eventually
It takes a hell of a lot of energy
Everything will be oh
Isabelle this is not a love song
This is about our futures
Everythings going to be ok
(Everything will be ok)

I'm a flaneur
That means I walk around and listen to people’s conversations
Just like you do
The only difference is I do it with a level of sophistication
And then I write it all down in my journal
I'm saving it up for a novel
It’s gonna be a heartbreaking work of staggering genius
Sometimes it's nice to connect the dots, walking from elephant to bank
Sometimes it’s nice to connect the dots, walking from the Tate to warren street
Sometimes it’s nice to connect the dots, to join the dots to the other dots
Sometimes it’s nice and sometimes it's not.
I'm not a walker I'm a flaneur
You see I'm moving with a little more class
You're right about that cos I'm a writer
Don’t ever doubt that anything that gets said is getting stored in my head
For my novel, did I mention I was writing a book and I'll let you have a look
It’s moving out from my mind, to get finessed into prose,
It’s getting sprayed on the page, when I find the right time
Sometimes it's nice to connect the dots, walking from elephant to bank
Sometimes it’s nice to connect the dots, walking from the Tate to warren street
Sometimes it’s nice to connect the dots, to join the dots to the other dots
Sometimes it’s nice and sometimes it's not.
I wanna write I wanna write
But am just too tired am just too tired
I know I've got something great inside I’ve got something great inside

Midnight in Montmartre
03:47
|
|||
|
We sat cross legged, on the river steps,
sipping cafe au lait, eating buttery crepes
Watching boats float by, on a tourist ride
Climbing winding streets to the Sacre Coeure,
Parisian girls sit, on a brasserie stair
Parisian gangsters, kissing on the corner
Running from the metro to the Eiffel Tower
Sitting in the park in the midnight hour
(We were) Lying on the grass getting offered cheap wine
Kids were getting drunk on a Saturday night
Montmartre started coming to life
Cabaret clubs and the deep red lights
Sticky morning streets, in the morning sunlight
In the shade of the Louvre, wine taste from the last night
Booksellers on the Seine, getting prints feeling allright
Kissing under the bridge from the Phoenix video
in the Latin quarter, Daft Punk on the stereo
Sebastian Tellier, slick sounding electro
Running from the metro to the Eiffel Tower
Sitting in the park in the midnight hour
(We were) Lying on the grass getting offered cheap wine
Kids were getting drunk on a Saturday night
Montmartre started coming to life
Cabaret clubs and the deep red lights
Art galleries, people painting in a side street
Overground metropolitan, plastered with graffiti,
Underground fashion, kids fresh from their head to feet
In the old cafe, staring at each other
Lovers silently away, in the city undercover
Lovers running away, run away for the summer
Running from the metro to the Eiffel Tower
Sitting in the park in the midnight hour
(We were) Lying on the grass getting offered cheap wine
Kids were getting drunk on a Saturday night
Montmartre started coming to life

Library/Party

Ooh let's go out
Noooo let's stay in
Tell me the things you like to do
Tell me the things that float your boat
Tell me the things that you don't like that get your goat tell me
Tell me the place you like the best
Would you rather move around or rest
Let's put the theory to the test
Shall we go to a library or go to a party?
Do something exciting or go somewhere arty?
Library can be a good place to meet girls
Party is good for studying people
Library is good for drinking alcohol
Party is good for reading journals
Library is a place to make new friends
Party is good for surfing the web
Library is good for playing twister
Party is good to talk big business
Shall we go to a library or go to a party?
Do something exciting or go somewhere arty?
I need an extra introvert to introduce me to an
Extra version of myself
That I sometimes meet on the way in
He's always out in parties
I'm always stuck in libraries
We never see each other
But that's the way we like it
Library! Party!
Cos life is a journey , its not just a moment
You’ve got keep learning, you’ve got to stay open
Cos life is a journey , its not just a moment
Go to the library, and find the fullfillment
