It is said that us men only get into music for a small number of reasons…. money, pride, women. This is the song I wrote in the week before achieving my primary reason (that’d be number 3 in that little list).

Now this song was about me trying to work through all the nervousness that comes from meeting up with a girl for what could be considered my first ever date. This was made worse by the fact that this wasn’t some random girl, but someone who I’d been chatting to via the interwebitubes for weeks (and those chats were both long and deep)

This awesome girl had told me “you can’t get mopey on saturday” and that kinda led to this song…. and just for the record, that Saturday was awesome

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
24 years
Pounding on the door
Accumulated fears
Cannot ignore

Prechorus:
Demon chinchilla
Uber butterflies
Stomping Godzilla
I must claim the prize

You are entering a region
Where things happen without reason
This box has a scary centre
Abandon all mope ye who enter

Chorus:
Twisted into an unknown world
Desires begin to be unfurled
Forever it seems in fetal I’m curled
Cannot predict when the dice have been hurled

Verse 2:
Fear of reject
Mustn’t turn back
Emotionally wrecked
From many attack
