about

Love and dating, dating and social media, social media and status updates. Ahhh. You see where we are going. GOT THE GIRL is a lovely little ditty about someone we all know, who falls quickly in love and declares their love publicly with great vigor, regularly.

*Jason (name changed to protect the innocent) is one of those love demons. Wedding bells are in the air, he's got a spare key cut, and they are only on their second drink.

lyrics

Their eyes first locked in a small cafe
Latte lips, Eggs Benedict, over Hemingway
By the time she caught the waiter's eye
He was in love

She had her mind on a dinner date at seven
He got it sown up, he'd died and gone to heaven
Status update: punching above his weight

Oo Ah, top of the world
Oo Ah, he got the girl
Oo Ah, she don't feel the same
Oo Ah, what a crying shame

Friday night on the pull with the lads
Practiced pout, Wonderbra, she's a drunken dream
By the time they left the dance floor
He was in love

He flagged a taxi to take them to the West End
She got her sights set firmly on his best friend
Status update: snagged himself a bombshell

Oo Ah, top of the world
Oo Ah, he got the girl
Oo Ah, she don't feel the same
Oo Ah, what a crying shame

Only drives at two speeds, doesn't mind the nose bleeds
Looking for his mother in the eyes of every lover
Heart is in the right place, head is lost in outer space
Slow down sunshine you've got more time

Oo Ah, top of the world
Oo Ah, he got the girl
Oo Ah, she don't feel the same
Oo Ah, what a crying shame

OLDER New Zealand

We produce music laden with antipathy for mainstream culture and seasoned with an alternative point of view, wrapped up in a deceptive layer of respectability. We champion the creative thinker and the under dog yapping in the wind. Everything we write is inspired by first-hand experience through our ADHD lens. If we resonate with you then that's a connection that means everything to us. ... more
