about

This song stemmed from staying with my girlfriend in Ireland, where she said ‘I feel like a responsible adult, like when you have to use scissors for Blue Peter’ (or something similar). I wrote it down on a piece of wrapping paper and put it in my wallet and gradually the lyrics tumbled out. It kind of continues the oddball-romantic lyrics on ‘Congratulations On Not Being An Idiot’ from my first record. The keyboard riff is inspired by ‘Skeletons’ by Yeah Yeah Yeahs, which is why the song is called ‘Yes Yes Yes’

lyrics

There’s that cracking sound again/agony through my rotting tooth stumps/the deadened nerves are severed/so i should feel no pain/but its sensitive to me/and everything i eat/this represents all of my hopes and all of my dreams/she said if you will let me Joe i will be your guide/don’t let it get to the point where we pass like ships in the night/you’re my responsible adult when i’m using scissors on blue peter programs/and i’m not much of an announcer but i will give it a try/this is the hardest thing i ever said/my heart’s ablaze but my mind’s a wasteland
