SONGS, MEANINGS, LYRICS
SONGS
IF MY BABY WAS A SONG
"If my baby was a song" is a song about love and affection. It is about two lovers but it could be about any other type of love, parenthood, brotherhood, friendship, you name it.
LOCKED DOWN WITH YOU
"Locked down with you" is an ironic tune reflecting about the privilege of having had someone next to me during the lockdown reminding me of washing my hands.
LITTLE DEVILS BLUES
"Little Devils Blues" is about mental health. How important it is to make peace with the devils inside our heads, because they will never leave, they just want to be acknowledged and loved.
THE OUTSIDER
"The Outsider" has no words, just notes over a Blues Shuffle aiming to represent the urge, struggle and challenge of wanting to fit in as much as refusing of doing so. Life is crazy.
LYRICS
IF MY BABY WAS A SONG
If my baby was a song, she’d be the sweetest song you’ll ever ear
If my baby was a song, she’d be the sweetest song you’ll ever ear
You would sing it straight away, every night and every day
If my baby was a song, she’d be the sweetest song you’ll ever ear
You know my baby, my baby, she makes me smile
You know my baby, my baby, she makes me smile
She makes me feel just like I wanna dance, I wanna dance all night
If my baby was a song, she’d be the sweetest song you’ll ever ear
Always on the radio, played on your phone
She’d be always on the radio, played on your phone
Covered by every single band all around the World
If my baby was a song, she’d be the sweetest song you’ll ever ear
LOCKED DOWN WITH YOU
Here I am, I’m stuck in this flat with you
Here I am, darling, I’m stuck in this flat with you
Living like this ain’t easy baby, talking ‘about the lockdown blues
“Have you washed your hand?”
“Have you changed your clothes?”
“Could you please turn it down now?”
It ain’t never down enough!
So here I am, darling, I’m stuck in this flat with you
Living like this ain’t easy baby, talking ‘about the lockdown blues
Phone stopped ringing
I have nowhere to go
I can’t get of anything
No even I real job
So here I am, darling, I’m stuck in this flat with you
Living like this ain’t easy baby, talking ‘about the lockdown blues
Living like this ain’t easy baby, talking ‘about the lockdown blues
Living like this ain’t easy baby, talking ‘about the lockdown blues
LITTLE DEVILS BLUES
Little devils in my head, they always try to make me cry
Little devils in my head, they always try to make me cry
I wake up early in the morning, they start messing on my mind
Little devils make me suffer for everything I did to you
Little devils make me suffer for everything I did to you
Little devils know everything
They laugh at me when I get blue
No matter how fast I run, how high I get
No matter how fast I run, how high I get
Little devils gonna catch me
They’ll make do what I’ll regret
