In Pursuit of Happiness

Well you said that we could still be friends,

I was a sucker for the sweet talking,

You said that you could never love again,

But there you go still swinging that ball and chain,

​

Chorus

​

And I'm in pursuit of happiness,

And I'll leave no stone unturned,

Yes I'm in pursuit of happiness

And I'll leave no stone unturned

And I have been bitten and I have been burned

But I have listened and I have learned

If I meet you on the way and I don't mean a thing to you,

How little I mean says so much about you,

​

You kept it all so close inside

The truth and all the lies

You said that you could never love again

But there you go still swinging that ball and chain

​

Repeat Chorus

​

So walk away, hey hey

'Cause I'm worth more than you I'd say

So walk away, hey hey

'Cause I'm worth more than you I'd say

So walk away hey hey

You had no joy in your heart anyway

So walk away hey hey

You had no joy in your heart anyway

​

Repeat Chorus

Dopamine Oxytocin

​

You give me too much baby

And it pulls my heart strings

I don't need your everything

It pulls my heart strings 

And I don't know if it's good

I don't know if it's bad

I just want this to be 

The best thing I ever had

​

Chorus

​

Is this dopamine oxytocin cocktail in my blood love?

Or just a chemical, or just a chemical rush?

Is this dopamine oxytocin cocktail in my blood love?

​

My defences are down baby

And I know how well you shoot a gun

My defences are down baby

And I'm scared that your the only one

And I don't know if it's good

I don't know if it's bad

I just want this to be

The best thing I've ever had

​

Repeat Chorus

​

Is this dopamine oxytocin cocktail in my blood love? x 4

​

I don't know if it's good

I don't know id it's bad

I just want this to be

The best thing I've ever had

​

Repeat Chorus

​

​

The Sailor Boy

​

Meet me on the shore and take me deeper

Meet me on the shore and take me deeper

All I am is all I have and all I have is here and now

​

Chorus

​

Take me out to sea

Drown my memory

We kiss happy 

The sailor boy and me

Take me out to sea

Drown my memory

We kiss happy

The sailor boy and me

Oh oh oh oh oh etc

​

Feel his kisses washing over my skin

Like liquid Elysium

All I am is all I have

And all I have is here and now

​

Repeat chorus

​

Throw the anchor down

I feel I'm found

Miles away with you

​

Repeat Chorus

​

Freedom's Fairytale for Girls

​

I've got a story that's never been told

I've got a story that's never been told

I'm gonna tell it to you

I'm gonna tell it to you

You'll be conditioned by the old

You'll be conditioned by the old

They'll poison you

And imprison you

​

But it ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It's prince charming

It's prince charming

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It's prince charming

It's prince charming

​

Chorus

​

You can get out of your own tower,

You've got the strength you've got the power,

You can get out of your own tower

You don't need a saviour 

​

If I were Rapunzel I'd cut my hair

I'd make a rope I'd climb out there

If I were put to sleep for a hundred years I'd

Wake up and want to travel the seas

I already know Rumpelstiltskin's name

And I won't ever play that game

If I were Rapunzel I'd cut my hair I'd make a rope I'd climb out there

​

But it ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It's prince charming

It's prince charming

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It's prince charming

It's prince charming

​

Repeat Chorus

​

I've got a story that's never been told

I've got a story that's never been told

Gonna tell it to you,

I'm gonna tell it to you

Just a toy for the boys

Objectified make some noise

It poisons you 

And imprisons you

​

Cause it ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It's prince charming

It's prince charming

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It ain't the witch that you've gotta watch

It's prince charming

It's prince charming

​

Repeat Chorus

​

The Devilling Kind

​

I've tasted the fruit from the tree

Of the knowledge of good and evil,

I've tasted the fruit from the tree

I've seen the Devil and he's seen me

Oh he's seen me

​

And I looked into his devil eyes

I saw right through his devil lies

I know what's in his devil mind

And I'm not scared of the devilling kind

​

He saw the dark side of the moon too soon

It was sink or swim

When he saw the devil and she saw him

Oh she saw him

​

And he looked into her devil eyes

He saw right through her devil lies

He know's what in her devil mind

And he's not scared of the devilling kind

​

We found a boat

Rowed the river Lethe

We made no fuss

When we saw the devil and it saw us

Oh it saw us

​

And we looked into its devil eyes

We say right through its devil lies

We know what's in its devil mind

And we're not scared of the devilling kind

​

For 40 days and 40 nights

No nourishment to fight the fight

That dirty old devil tempted fine

But we're not scared of the devilling kind.
