Best Dog in the World

You eat up all my time
You don't always smell so good
Your gut gets out of line
So you wake up in the night
Cos you wanna go outside
Make your body feel right
Oh dog of mine
You coat the house in fur
You howl through all my calls
You don't accept hugs
You refuse to chase a ball
You won't let us lie in
But you can't be left alone
You need an endless stream of medication
You can be a pain in the ass
But I wouldn't have it any other way
My life changed on that day
That I answered your advert on Gumtree
When people see you in the street
They always comment on your eyes
Or the markings that run
Up and down your sides
But if you asked me to pick
My favourite part
I'd have to say the fur behind your ears
You can be a pain in the ass
But I wouldn't have it any other way
My life changed on that day
That I answered your advert on Gumtree
You are the light of my life
When I see you I can't help but smile wide
When you're near I feel happy inside
I don't know what I did to deserve you
You are the best dog in the world
You are the best dog in the world
You are the best dog in the world
You are the best dog in the world
You can be a pain in the ass
But I wouldn't have it any other way
My life changed on that day
That I answered your advert on Gumtree
You are the light of my life
When I see you I can't help but smile wide
When you're near I feel happy inside
I don't know what I did to deserve you

Never Gonna Happen

If you’re waiting for perfection
For everything to line up
If you’re waiting for permission
Or a sign from above
You’ll be waiting for a long, long time
You’ve just gotta start
Or it’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
If you doubt that you can do it
Scared of getting it wrong
Feel like an impostor
And it’s too hard to try
Just push it to the back of your mind
Just make a start
Or it’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen
It’s never gonna happen for you
It’s never gonna happen

Sweet Annabel
I still can’t believe I met you
Can’t believe that this is real
Can’t believe you’ve chosen me
Sweet Annabel
In a world of several billion
With men richer and smarter
You’ve turned your gaze to me
So say yes, say yes to me and I’ll
Say yes, say yes to you, darling
Promise that you’ll never leave
I could never leave you
Sweet Annabel
Sweet Annabel
I met you in a field
In a tent filled with beer
It was the last thing on my mind
Cos when I saw you
Time slowed to a standstill
The world flipped on its axis
And there was only you
So say yes, say yes to me and I’ll
Say yes, say yes to you, darling
Promise that you’ll never leave
I could never leave you
Sweet Annabel
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
So say yes, say yes to me and I’ll
Say yes, say yes to you, darling
Promise that you’ll never leave
I could never leave you
Sweet Annabel

Both Be Better

I met a girl yesterday
Hadn’t held out much hope for that
We took a walk out along the water
I almost reached out and held her hand
Because my heart is quick to love
My brain has never been able to keep up
This girl’s got a heart of gold
She’d probably be better without me
Because my love is all consuming
And I always seem to abuse it
I think we’d both be better
If I just stayed here on my own
I want love more than anything
But it’s the one thing that I can’t have
I’ve written countless songs about it
I should be an expert by now
But I am hopeless, I am a mess
I have no idea what I want
I’m just trying not to ruin everything in my path
As I work it out
Because my love is all consuming
And I always seem to abuse it
I think we’d both be better
If I just stayed here on my own
Because my love is all consuming
And I always seem to abuse it
I think we’d both be better
If I just stayed here on my own

Close to Me

It was not expected
It was not deserved
From the moment I met you
My whole world turned
You’ve got a smile that kills me
You’ve got a way with words
And these feelings seem viable
For the first time in years
And I keep on pinching myself
I feel drunk whenever you’re around
I’m a giddy teenager
I need you close to me
I’m glad that you waited
Before you made yourself known
Don’t think I could manage this
In the times before
And I keep on pinching myself
I feel drunk whenever you’re around
I’m a giddy teenager
I need you close to me
I couldn’t dream you existed
Scared that I’d blink and I’d miss you
Under sunsets I’ll kiss you
Stay close to me

Good Man

Back when I was a boy
I dreamed of fame and fortune
I would sing these lyrics
The crowds would scream them back at me
But fifteen years have passed
Now I spend my days staring at a screen
Selling things to people
Who don't know that they don't need anything
I don't want to be a rich man
I don't want to be known around the world
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be good for you
From time to time
I still get sucked in
Wishing I was doing better
Craving a little more of everything
But comparison
Is the thief of joy
I gotta stop looking around
Recognise what’s in front of me
I don't want to be a rich man
I don't want to be known around the world
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be good for you
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be a good man
I don't want to be a rich man
I don't want to be known around the world
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be good for you
I don't want to be a rich man
I don't want to be known around the world
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be good for you
I don't want to be a rich man
I don't want to be known around the world
I just wanna be a good man
I just wanna be good for you
I just wanna be good for you
I just wanna be good for you
