I've been wanting to talk
You walked away like a female Rasputin
You had aftershave like an arms dealer
Think you're pretty
Wake up
Everything you've done, I've done already
I'm not ashamed to be honest, little one
Cheap sleepers
An inapproachable expression

I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
Can you hear me?
Larger
Fucking scream
I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'm the lovesick skin in your left hand
Pray for rainfall
Beat the ground
I'm from the earth
I'll pull you down

I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'm the lovesick skin in your left hand
Pray for rainfall
Beat the ground
I'm from the earth
I'll pull you down

I've rigged the system
You're northern soul dancing at your own wedding
And all my love surveillance amounts to what?
Just another Hoxton disco communist neutralised

The darkest light suits you like a shattered mirror
Broken but beautiful
Starch your tie in this powdered baptism
And I'll walk backwards to avoid the truth

I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'm the lovesick skin in your left hand
Pray for rainfall
Beat the ground
I'm from the earth
I'll pull you down

I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'm the lovesick skin in your left hand
Pray for rainfall
Beat the ground
I'm from the earth
I'll pull you down

Do not show weakness in pursuit of greatness
This ugly business will let you down
Always be outrageous in front of the camera
Lower your tone for your own personal gain
Shoehorn your way to accept your place in the heart if that's needed
Grab your opportunity by the scruff of the neck and let it squeal

I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'm the lovesick skin in your left hand
Pray for rainfall
Beat the ground
I'm from the earth
I'll pull you down

I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'm the lovesick skin in your left hand
Pray for rainfall
Beat the ground
I'm from the earth
I'll pull you down

I'm from the earth
I'll pull you down
I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'll be your girl
I'll be your man
I'll be your girl
I'll be your man

I dig the sinister feel of this one. Nice trip-hop vibe. The spoken word part sounds like when they show an FBI informant on a true crime show. Need to revisit it when the lights are low. 
love Baxter , he is better than his father! Is great, play more  tunes
Now, that is certainly something completely different. Very expressionist but in a fun way. 

For example: "I'm the lovesick skin in your left hand". What a great lyric. I can imagine the folks at the art studio building from my old school coming up with something like that line.

Anyway, I'll buck the trend and start this with a 7 from Napoli on the Gulf.

Oh, and by the way... First
