lyrics

Sitting ducks all in a row
You never realised your potential
You were purely mediocre til the end
Realise your potential
Or you'll be purely mediocre til the end

If they found a way of bottling superpowers
You would still drink dark rum instead
You would still take the rum instead

Don Quixote told me
As he rode with haste
That we've all got windmills to chase
Keep your mind on the mission Sonny Jim
Order me another large gin while you're at it
Don't forget to charge it to Cervantes

Even Icarus got off the ground
Well you just fell off your barstool
And sat there arguing whose round it was
Even Icarus got off the ground

Don Quixote told me
As he rode with haste
That we've all got windmills to chase
Keep your mind on the mission Sonny Jim
Order me another large gin while you're at it
Don't forget to charge it to Cervantes

I wanted dreams
But they're only windmills

Lord Of The Harvest
by Peter Talisman

somebody had to
by phoneswithchords

The gentle lo-fi songs on the latest phoneswithchords LP develop their granular sketches of childhood and coming of age into full portraits. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 25, 2023
