1.
She's just a tease he's just a boy in her sight she takes him upstairs he locks the door for the night and things are getting pretty awkward hard to say if this is real at least it kills some time she burns a candle their shadows move in the light I bet this won't look good in the morning so play fair This is a little uncomfortable don't be so damn unreasonable it's getting so hard to find some shame these days This is a little uncomfortable so just have some restraint you know but she feels the tips of her fingers, itching to find out Her head is spinning she can't remember his name so fast-forward and the kid's on its way what have you done, what have you done? I know I joke but this is such a mess so play fair For every second that she tells herself this is love she hasn't learnt
2.
She's got a curse and a sting on her lips that might just be contagious so I'll give it a miss She's got a tattoo on the base of her hip that says you wanna see more of this Oh no you gotta job so keep your head down it's not like you're the boss stop fooling around Put out that fire on the tip of your tongue or you'll earn a reputation for one So pull those strings and watch them dance and sing, You got a lot to, you got a lot to say, you got a lot to, you got a part to play Shifty eyes as she enters the room, she makes sure you can hear but she"s not talking to you Keep it smart whilst playing the fool or you're gunna have a lot to lose Connecting minds, with flawless eyes, and I'm falling fast asleep
3.
Wake up I'm running late Radio hesitate The Morning pays for the night Got an agenda to hide Running my head is sore These feet can't take much more Now I'm a sight for sore eyes I guess I've perfected these lies Chin up you'll be ok That's what they always say I'm soaking through from this rain And I've spent the last of my days Doing your dirty work I've got a lot to learn I guess it's true what they say and I'm sure I'll feel the same But now I'm lying a ghost and a secret life the boy who sold his soul will never know sell your soul and never know just what it's like to walk on the other side I've lost so many things but it's ok I lost my dignity To someone else's dreams Sarcasm burns me alive I've got this room for the night I choked and swallowed my pride but it just made me sick I said I'd be just fine but it was all just a trick I lose but keep the score to help me hate you more so twist my arm till it breaks lets see how much I can take You say you've got my back but I say you're running fast I feel I'm starting to fray and I'll make the same mistakes I may be down but I'm not out yet
4.
You think you're so naive, well you're not afraid to beg and cheat and steal and make your own way and I bet you don't look twice when he's talking the blame so don't look twice, he's not so nice and you're on your way but I know I look at you stare, but I know I look at you stare away. So for god's sake pull yourself together she ain't listening to you anymore and she don't say and she don't wait, for anyone for anything You do your best to argue but you just can't win and now he's selling you friendship to buy your trust the scene sing 'sin' To take this chance you must understand I ain't messing around when I'm telling you boys will be boys but you're not listening anyway and they say that the best is what you make it but I'm a fool in spite of you and I'm not inclined to feel the same way too But if fate would make an offer then I'll ignore the reasons why but I'll just remember to hold tight and take my advice This storm is breaking us down but I won't turn around and say She don't say, and she don't wait, and she don't know she's unstoppable

He says he'll be just fine as he cuts another line he's soaking in his bed with hallucinogen He writes himself a note for tomorrow he'll never know how messed up is his head 'please don't do this again' Painted walls, with all the colours of your soul Voices call, they tell you all you need to know Go, grow, jump into that hole but you know they'll always find you when you fall so you listen more as the walls begin to close this heat's unbearable as the room becomes alive with demons in the night and he's bricking it he's breaking the walls and it's turning, it's turning it rolls and he's sweating to combat the cold? Lets hope he keeps his faith as the funeral procession awaits but what shall we write on the slate? 'He was a poor boy who lost his way' He takes a hit he hits the glass he hits the wall broken bones and broken hearts is all they know so accept the truth and I'll await the call it's pathetic, sympathetic, am I not the only one who finds it odd? Through the eye of a needle he sees the world pass by as a dream the curtain call hasn't been but this is the final scene

about

This is our long overdue second EP, 'Paper Champion'. Have it, we can't stand it sitting on our hard drives any longer!

We started tracking drums for 'Paper Champion' back in April 2010. Everything was recorded at Phoenix Sound (www.phoenixsound.net) and we are eternally grateful to Pete Fielder for the use of such an amazing facility. Ruby and Steve mixed it in Steve's bedroom in our old house in Perivale.

Thank you to Jonas Molina for his performance on this record and good luck for the future big man!

This EP is dedicated to everyone who has kept any interest in what we do despite almost a year of inactivity. Thank you, we hope you enjoy it and that it was worth the wait. We are proud parents of this EP, we're hoping some people like it!

(If you like this, pass it around. It takes less than 30 seconds to share this little link and it helps us out a great deal.)
