about

Happy Daze is the first single from my forthcoming album which will be released mid-July / early August 2022

lyrics

I bend to tie the lace, of the right-angled woman
Who moves so impossibly slow
While the boy holds the hand, of the last standing statue
By the derelict church in the snow

In a backstreet a poet, and the sisters of mercy
Line up for their shots and their songs
But nobody listens, to the sound of the river
That’s stopped, ‘cause it was just can’t go on

Chorus
Happy daze, all our wishes come true
Happy daze, for me and for you,
We’re all in a daze, we get what we want, happy daze...

By the park near the playground, there’s champagne and bouquets
For the man who has fooled more than most
(and) satellite tv beams wall to wall coverage
of the dream that got lost in the post

Chorus

A baffled professor, can’t say why the colours
Of the rainbows are fading to grey
But everyone knows that sooner or later
Someone will just have to pay

Chorus
