Nowadays I'm getting used to excusing the abuse from you
Nowadays I count myself among the lucky if I hear from you
Nowadays I'm alive and I survive without the thought of you
Nowadays if it's never then whatever Nowadays
Nowadays what it amounts to is it doesn't really count with you
Nowadays now its square and so it's fair I don't shed a tear for you
Nowadays, and it's nix to me what pricks can get their kicks with you
Nowadays it's no deal to me you don't appeal to me nowadays
Tell me straight..what's wrong..it's getting late
There's no debate, it's so wrong, I've got a date

ROCK N ROLL FUCKUP
02:50

20 years old you've got everything to burn
In 20 years more you'll have nothing left to learn
Look at me now, head in the clouds
A rock n roll fuckup
Oh daddy don't sound concerned
You make me wanna kill myself
Look at me now
Young and proud
Rock n roll fuckup
Oh doctor there's something wrong with my hair
Most of the time I truly wish it was dead
Look at me now, underground
Unmarried, no children, still a rock n roll fuckup

Stranger

By the river, at the station, at the post office
I saw you, I'm the stranger.
It doesn't matter what clothes I wear
It doesn't matter how I cut my hair
I'm just the guy that always stands and stares
Like a monster at a country fair
Now nobody knows or cares
Doesn't matter if I say my prayers
If there's nobody else compares
I want you, I'm the stranger
Well I was minding my own business when you came along
Busking on a highway a dollar for a song
I followed you to see where you were living was it wrong?
You seemed so strong, I was a stranger
By the river, as the station, at the post office, at information
I warned you, I'm the stranger.

PUNK VENUE

What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this
The dunnee's a brothel, the carpet smells like piss
And everybody on the dancefloor all dance like THIS
What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?
You slumming it?
Well your sister's at school your brother works in Japan
And every birthday your grandpa sends you a grand
And now you want the tree change but you can always go home
To a comfortable bedroom when you're second in line to the throne.
You slumming it?
See that punk in the corner, he's the real deal
I could tell you things about you that would put you off your meal
Cos when you were staying home with your bacon and eggs
He was bashing nazis, say they killed one
Home in Brzeg

Exit wounds, battle grounds, in for a penny, battle sounds
Family and friends, on your hands, making money
Make ends meet.
Authority
Exit wounds, battle scars, battle wounds
making money, making friends, making amends
Make ends meet

HEART OF STEEL

I see right through you baby, I see right through you baby.
You wanna know how I feel?
I'm not made of steel
You don't say what you feel, you don't show what you feel
You wanna know how I feel?
You've got a heart of steel
you've got a heart of steel
You wanna know how I feel?
Don't do this to me baby, you can't do this to me baby.
You wanna know how I feel?
You've got a heart of steel

SOME OTHER NAME
04:02

It must be clear even to you by now that this is not a game
It must be clear even to you by now
that this is not love by some other name
I want you to take a good look around, tell me what you see
I'm not the same man that I used to be
It's not love
This just isn't love
Are you home by yourself
am I back on the shelf
Does your mind know itself
Have you found someone else
It would be such a shame
if what we had became
Just a sad stupid game
Love by some other name.
What you get and what you expect are not the same
the evidence is on my face and you're in the frame
By popular acclaim
archers take aim
Love by some other name

I've been around you long enough to know
You wouldn't hurt me in a million years
I've been around you long enough to know
When you say you really like me you're just playing.
I like you singing in a gentle voice
You like the way we play when we are alone
I like the way you say that it's our choice
When you know it's what we both want
We're just playing.
I've got some feelings about you
Yoiu've got the sanity to pull you through
Is there something special that you'd like me to do
Something that you want me to say?

TEST OF TIME

I thought I'd write some song
just to let you know I haven't died.
it isn't love that kills ya.
Thought I'd write this song just to let you know i haven't died
It isn't love that kills ya.
Thought I'd write some song, just to let you know I tried
It isn't love that kills ya.
And I know what you tell your friends,
You tried to get him but he wouldn't leave
And I know what you tell your friends,
He just wants to do what he please
Like a runaway train,
Like a man in pain,
Shouldn't give him what he needs,He just does what he pleases
It isn't love that kills ya.
I stood the test of time
Stood the test of time
Straight down the passages of time.
Though I'd write this song
Just to let you know I survived,
It isn't love that kills ya

Cherryweather SA, Australia
I'm a Melbourne based songwriter. The guitars and vocals are mine, the rest are midi instruments. I record and produce my
music at home...I've released 20 albums on bandcamp which you'll find in the discography.
The music is basically Indie pop/rock but with lots of rock, blues and dreampop cross pollination. I hope you like them.
I'm indebted to *80s and 90s Australian and New Zealand indie pop
