Boyfriend Bomb

A slip of the tongue; the word of the month,
Nine little letters, my Countdown Conundrum.
I dropped the bomb but I don't see the harm,
Tell me baby "Am I wrong?"
I know it's quick but you've got to admit,
you and I has got a pretty nice ring to it.
I'm so sorry if it's too early to commit;
I just like the way it sounds on my lips.
'Coz you're my Boyfriend,
and you know you are.
Sometime's it's just my favourite way
to make sure everybody's on the same page.
When they find out that we're not just mates
I like to see the look on their face.
I know it's soon, but what's to lose
I wanna tell people who might be confused.
Is it so absurd, that that's the word I use?
I hope you don't mind that it's you.
'Coz you're my Boyfriend.
And you know you are.

Martha

She's the angel with a regional accent,
spinning tales with such eloquence,
of working class queer romance;
In love, and it's no accident
that I've fallen so bad;
the thoughts you can't tell Mum & Dad,
I hear expressed in her voice
and now I'm totally mad for
Martha
Makes my heart go faster
Hear her, can't skip past her
It's like I've found Nirvana
Just waiting for the chance to
go up to her after
her show and to ask her
but I daren't stick around for the answer.
And when I'm in her crowd I feel so safe
I can behave
the way I want to all the time,
down the front with rainbow fist raised.
And when she says loud and clear
that "This next one's for the queers."
I just can't help but melt
There's nothing in between my ears but
Martha

You left me tons of messages
and missed calls, but I've been letting them ring.
Don't care for how you're expressing it.
You want to see me one more time
Now you don't want to analyse
But you already did that, and what did you decide to do?
You left me for her memory
You expect to claw your way back to me
Drunk texts at twelve-thirty:
A coward's way
To show the power
you still hold over me.
You left me broken for a month
And you just want to have some fun
Let's read between the lines here, hun.
Let me interpret those texts
It's been that month since you had sex
Do you still think about your ex?
'Coz let's not forget that...
You left me for her memory.
And when I see the calls from you,
I will just let it ring.
And when I play this chord for you
I will just let it ring.

Natural Attraction

You're in the big city now.
You've got the run of this whole town.
No one from before knows you now.
And your parents; they can't hear you now.
And soon someone will catch your eye,
And you'll know it for sure for the first time.
You'll feel nervous, you'll feel sick and you'll feel shy
But just remember, it's never too late to try
and it's a
Natural Attraction.
You tried for so long to redact it,
And you convinced yourself it was batshit.
But it's time now for you to go and act on it
'Coz those thoughts that you had, yeah they're natural.
They're just hormones and brain chemicals and that's it.
Just a normal animal attraction.
Though you might not catch it on National Geographic,
Trust me, there's loads of us who have it;
A Natural Attraction.
