No one wants to touch you.
No one wants to touch you
but you know,
I do.
No ones to listen.
No one wants to listen
but you know,
I do.
And I wonder how I
couldn't see you,
see you before,
I won't close my eyes anymore.
Everyone can hurt you.
Anyone can hurt you
and you know,
they will.
No one wants to love you.
'cause no one has to like you
but you know,
they will.
And they'll wonder how they
couldn't see you,
see you before,
they won't close their eyes anymore.
Someone help me up I've fallen,
for you over time again.
For you over night, my friend.
And I wonder how I
couldn't see you,
see you before,
I won't close my eyes anymore.
Never mind that there's nothing I've done
to ever make you want to look my way.
I remember the time we first met
and I've been thinking 'bout you since that day.
Now I'm counting down the days
'til I can see you again.
Your lonely smile and your dangerous eyes
are all it takes to make me paralyzed.
So I'll just stand at the back of the room
and sing along while I watch your band play.
While I'm counting down the days 'til I can see you again.
No one said that what you said was the truth,
but I'll believe it 'til the day I die.
You had the world at your feet but my heart broke
on the night that I first saw you cry.
Now I'm counting down the days 'til I can see you again.
We were walking down the street today.
With all the people staring.
They tried to make you feel afraid.
Tried to take away your name.
Worked up the nerve to watch the news today.
With all the rich folk saying,
that they would fight to pass a law,
just to prove you don't exist.
Well I don't care who's in charge,
what's right is right,
and you're alright.
I don't care who's in charge,
what's right is right,
and you're alright.
And I can see you.
I can see you.
We were hanging out at work today
and the boss man told you,
that you ought to know your place.
Not to take up so much space.
But I saw you up on the stage tonight.
I watched you start a fire.
You charged the room like a live wire.
Spoke your truth to all their power.
I don't care who's in charge,
what's right is right,
and you're alright.
I don't care who's in charge,
what's right is right,
and you're alright.
And I can see you.
I can see you.
I don't care who's in charge,
what's right is right,
and you're alright.
I don't care who's in charge,
what's right is right,
and you're alright.
And we can see you.
We can see you.
You had me shaking like a leaf now, darling,
when you walked in that door.
And I've got one thing on my mind now, honey,
out on the dance floor.
But with you,
it's true,
I'm going
to say the wrong thing but
I want you to dance the whole night through with me.
Your mumma told you there was no one out there,
good enough for you.
But just to get you through tonight now, darling,
maybe I will do?
With you,
it's true,
I'm going
to say the wrong thing but
I want you to dance the whole night through with me.
Oh how I wonder,
How I can make you see me with you.
It's true,
I'm going
to say the wrong thing but
I want you to dance the whole night through with me.
The whole night through with me.

Recorded in one afternoon at a mate's garage, this record is as half baked and poorly planned as a prom night stoner teen pregnancy.
Efficiency would like to acknowledge this recording was made on the traditional lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. They pay their respects to their elders past, present and future and acknowledge sovereignty was never ceded.
