houseplants - Easy Life

You pour the wine, I’ll pour a cup of tea

Strain our eyes to adjust to this jarring colour scheme

And mood lights and house plants

Grand Designs and channel surfin'

Driftin' with these solar winds

We stay searchin'

I’m really enjoying this regardless of what happens from here

Turn it up, don’t turn it down

I’m movin' through the gears ‘cause I’ve been lost for years

I really appreciate you comin' down on train lines and night buses

Pillows full of goose feathers

Read it in the newsletters

I’m a real go-getter, trippin' with these trend-setters

Multi-coloured parachute hat with the solar-powered fan

It’s cool, she’s with the band

I just wanna take you out for the summer

I would never swap you out for another

I’m kind of scared of your eldest brother

We’ve been dressin' up ‘cause we look like stunners

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

Listen

I, I know your face from somewhere

How do I know you?

I thought you were the lifeguard at the local pool?

But wherever I know you from, you put me in a good mood

And so I changed the channel from the local news and weather

It’s FIFA '98 with the surround sound

I hope my housemates don’t freak you out

Or better still, they’re not around

Way up here on my trapeze, please don’t shoot me down

I love the way we hate these clowns

And for a minute there, you had me shook, waitin'

Holdin' on a health line

I just wanna take you out for the summer

I would never swap you out for another

I’m kind of scared of your eldest brother

We’ve been dressin' up ‘cause we look like stunners

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

Why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

And life’s on hold again

Your elbows on the table, but I’ll let it slide for now

You almost got carried away and said yes, I’d have loved that

Let’s grab a jo' off a friend then smoke it out the window

Never mind the neighbour’s cat, he always stares at me like that

Moroccan bee-sting, Colin the Caterpillar left over from my birthday

What the fuck?

I’m actually in love

Lucid as my dreams and still struggling with decisions

Coffee stains and urban wisdom

I just wanna take you out for the summer

I would never swap you out for another

I’m kind of scared of your eldest brother

We’ve been dressin' up ‘cause we look like stunners

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

Girl, why does it feel like it’s real for the first time?

You pour the wine, I’ll pour a cup of tea
