Art Rush - Song For Kobuki lyrics

I went back down to King St, Lauren To buy myself a new guitar and I saw the pawn shop owner’s daughter with her arms around a VCR. Fat c*nt sittin’ back with a belly full of strings All hocked off and dodgy Some girl’s gonna see those ukes and then paint herself like Zooey. Little hipster kids on a bridge up on City Road They're unbalanced but they can climb Like their fathers before them they’ll watch the rain from Fisher Level 9 Shine your light on me Mr. Manning Bar Cause as soon as all this pack rain stops I’m headed down to drink some Tooheys New and meet this random girl I wanna f**. Not you, someone else. Lauren, it’s been so long I feel bad even calling you that It feels so stifled and artificial now It feels paternal and old hat. There’s a sharehouse down on Lyons Rd Where you took my first time as a kind of joke You lit a light up for my love luck and then 23 years clean went up in smoke. Lauren, I left my girl at an Enmore Road junction and I came out to Green Square here To face the dream’s malfunction Love’s a repetitious danger That you’d think I would’ve become accustomed to Well I do accept the changes Like a robot; too well, just like I used to do. A guy I used to know just overdosed In a park where I used to play Hadn’t thought about him for years & years But you know I felt sad anyway. Been callin’ up girls every day this week All emotion and abstraction While my ex is on a five-day-bender as we forge paths to satisfaction. Expanding circles invisible But you know, there’s better results around here Nothing but lobsters and formal dresses In the Tinderous air, around Green Square. No reception in S225 So frustrating in that modern style When you’re mad with interdependence Quick tantrums of love and lume. Unrelated but technically not a lie Implications and wishful thinking Digital love, a meaningful like Photos attached to statistics Quick! Get on this dick. When we were kids in Gladesville, Lauren I went to every gig in this one horse town I'm just over it lately The scene just brings me down. Half these buildings are empty But there's a twenty-year plan to make this into a thing So maybe Green Square is just like me Full of coffee, sittin’ round Half empty and thinkin’ big. See, I didn’t just call you so we could hook up Though of course, it was part thereof It’s been so good to see you after all these years and I admire what you’re doing with yourself Cause there’s a wide world of noble causes And Sydney suburbs to discover But all I really want to do right now is…
