  • I am on
    Switched on
    A sudden clearness
    And clarity

    Hidden away
    In every locked toilet
    I've been waiting for you
    In the Joiners' arms

    I know your name
    I know your name
    I've danced with you
    We're all friends here

    Silver slugs
    Lined up like bullets
    Rolled up twenties
    They disappear

    You make my tongue loose
    You make my tongue loose
    I am hopeful and stutter-free

    You make my tongue loose
    You make my tongue loose
    I am home free

    On Friday night
    I do all the talking
    A pint and a fight
    The dance floor is mine

    Truth serum
    And limbs that won't listen
    Drunken "I Love You"s
    On top of the world

    And when it runs out
    We're chasing something we'll never catch
    And when it runs out
    We buy more

    A flatness so bleak
    I've been bitten by a vampire
    A flatness bleaker of the one it replaced

    You make my tongue loose
    You make my tongue loose
    I am hopeful and stutter-free

    You make my tongue loose
    You make my tongue loose
    I am home free

    I can charm
    I can charm them all
    I can charm
    Them all

    I can charm
    I can charm them all
    I can charm
    Them all

    You make my tongue loose
    You make my tongue loose
    I am hopeful and stutter-free

    You make my tongue loose
    You make my tongue loose
    I am home free

    I can charm
    I can charm them all
    I can charm
    Them all

    I can charm
    I can charm them all
    I can charm
    Them all Writer/s: GORDON MOAKES, KELE OKEREKE, MATT TONG, RUSSELL LISSACK
