about
This song is about being too busy to see your friends and your friends being too busy to see you. It’s about naming your pot plants, dippy eggs and battery farms. It’s about wishing time away, small talk and holidays. It’s about being a kid and becoming grown up.
lyrics
Congratulations
It’ll come round soon
Five days by a swimming pool Five days on a cruise
It started out so sweet
And you were having fun But Daddy pulled you down
Farewell sweet common sense
Old fashioned fun
She’ll make some time on a Monday
Al likes his eggs runny
The chicken died
The lawn is fake the time is real We’re saving time
We named our pot plant Paul
He’s growing up
5 leaves and another coming soon He watches us
It started out so sweet
And you were having fun
But mother cooled you down
Farewell sweet common sense
Old fashioned fun
She’ll make some time on a Monday
If she happens to be free And if it’s worthwhile
