glide away on an ocean of rosé that’s the game we play on a sunday you and i are wild inside and it’s a point of pride it’s our time to fly we’re on the runway so wave goodbye to pain and strife embrace the rose-coloured life there’s only one way draw that water hot and we will hit the spot on our own private beach a bottle just within reach no i don’t mind the rain as long as there’s champagne but it’s always sunny in LA and i’m a fool for your love so let’s just slip into the tub and drift away on a sunday yeah who said life has to be mean babe that’s never been our thing 'cause we’re living in a daydream and who has the time to be bothered punching clocks in the eye? no, not i and whoever said that crime doesn’t pay was just afraid to play the game but it all goes down the drain in the end anyway so give me something on the dry side while we get wet and ride the waterslide away on a sunday X4 whoever said that crime doesn’t pay? who said life has to be mean?

about

My first solo release ever. Written and recorded March-July 2015 in Echo Park.

10 song titles off the top of my head, scribbled them down and then composed the songs to those titles/ideas. Five songs for day and five for night... Reading Morrissey's autobiography. Sunset in the shadows of Downtown LA and Dodger Stadium, the 101 forever whirring through our dreams.
