Scratch Card
[Chorus]
Write drunk, and edit sober
Why do I live life like that Duchamp work of art
Always on its side?
Your Saturday looks saccharine just sack it in
Let's do something together
You look like you never bought a scratch card
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

[Chorus]
We write drunk, and edit sober
Why do I live life like that Duchamp work of art
Always on its side?
Your Saturday looks saccharine just sack it in
Let's do something together
You look like you never bought a scratch card
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

[Verse 1]
We tell ourselves these stories
To make sense of situations
And although our minds are glorious
We are slaves to our perception
There's no light at the end of our tunnel vision
Unless we can create some
Let's be brave in our rejection
Become everything they hate because
[Chorus]
We write drunk, and edit sober
Why do I live life like that Duchamp work of art
Always on its side?
Your Saturday looks saccharine just sack it in
Let's do something together
You look like you never bought a scratch card
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

(You look like you never bought a scratch card!)

[Verse 2]
Let's fly into this country man
And feel a little bolder
We can build ourselves on pride, refine our minds
Mate, you're my brother
And we're running from the road again
Both proudly lost together
And that outline of yourself my friend
You got the patience and the paint

These stories that we tell ourselves
We can control and construct them
Write them in silence then stand up and scream them
The light in your eyes shine as you give them meaning
Reclaim your voice from that flat in Norwich
Look after your weekend
Take yourself down to the woods again
Because one day you won't have to pretend
You look like you never bought a scratch card

[Chorus]
I'm drunk, and Ed is sober
Why do I live life like that Damien Hirst piece
Cut up?
Your Saturday looks saccharine just sack it in
Let's do something together
You look like you never bought a scratch card
Yeah, Yeah

[Chorus]
Write drunk, and edit sober
Why do I live life like that Duchamp work of art
Always on its side? (Yeah!)
Your Saturday looks saccharine just sack it in
Let's do something together
You look like you never bought a scratch card!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! (Yeah!)
