I like to eat thee big grenouilles They are my favourite snack My favourite dish My favourite fish My favourite bish My favourite thing Is to lie on a cold green wood Cry about everything but we're not emo We're not emo No complicated lyrics just some shit I spit out of with this singing dish And we dance in the gardens of France No simple rhymes I'm out of time 'Cause I like eating lots of dogs and the frogs and the bogs and the thick dirty logs and the snake and the rake and the mind and the field The pashion the chash and the think and gabield I don't believe That it's sustainable To keep eating goats Shouldn't keep eating goats We shouldn't shut them in our moats to make great castles and fill them up with frogs and hens and bats and birds Keep them alive Keep them unheard Lock ourselves aways A dark dungeon Hush all night Drink all the gin

Levels don't exist They're um iln your mind they're a cyst I refuse to assist But you get the gist Don't make me make a list I'll shove my fist Into this letter It's not getting better I lament the loss of CDs What the fuck they're like pastries They should be eternal be untoppable But they're not they are encroaching On the sweet vinyl I'm sure cave men resisted the wheel but spotify's not rightA It's not real What the fuck why can't we have some art in this place I'm really sorry but I'm not I refuse to rhyme I refuse to play your games or be On time You want me to sing or maybe you don't Maybe you wanted me to shut up Stop my throat But I won't I refuse That's what you like That's what you would like me to do You'd like me to sing Eat my shoe But the lib dems got eight Eight MPs In that election so I'll eat my hat

I was walkin along Shreveport, Rhode Island Close to the block I was thinking to myself Hummin' Usin' pomade I chanced upon a little lizard A little lizard with a 'squito on his back I look at him He look at me Eyes dead-lock tight in a chain An the lizard begins to rise Begins to fall and slight He said to me He said to me Why do you look so funny I SAID FUCKIN LIZARD WHY DO I LOOK FUNNY TO YOU FUNNY TO YOU IN YOUR TINY LIZARD BRAIN I DON'T LOOK FUNNY AT ALL IN FACT I LOOK A LITTLE BIT COOL IN FACT I LOOK FUCKIN PERFECTLY SANE He had a satchel on he back 'Bout 30 mile back Eyes waterin glow Of the night In Peru I reply Lizard You judge me When I doubt even your basic understanding of the finer arts But he had a crew He came prepared He looked up With eyes aglared And he open his mouth to say You feel lucky on this day I FEEL LUCKY AS A DICE LUCK AS A DICE IN A LAS VEGAS NIGHT LUCKY AS A DREAM LUCKY AS A QUEEN LUCKY AS YOUR SOUL TO BE WHEN I KILL YOU KILL YOU DOWN AN CRACK DOWN AND CRACK IN A NIGHT OF BLACK AN YOU'RE DEAD YOU'RE DEAD YOU'RE DEAD LITTLE LIZARD SCALE ON THE FLOOR Or at least that's what I would've said If I hadn't froze up Turned away Ran between my tail An thought about what I just said in the shower An how fuckin cool that would've been How cool I could've been An the lizard He didn't forget that day Not once not twice 40 year later He always thought of the potential coolness that cowboy out in Shreveport He wished he was a crocodile But he was more of a totodile An he still laughs about that little cowboy on the moon THAT LITTLE COWBOY ON THE MOON THAT WAS ME YOU FALL TOO I WISH I COULD'VE BEEN THERE BUT I WASN'T WASN'T WASN'T WASN'T HE LEFT US I HAVE FAILED I FAILED TOO TELL YOU THE TRUTH THAT THE TRUTH WAS I WASN'T ON THE MOON At all

about

Scouting for Cuppa's début offers a raucous mélange of almost entirely improvised punk, indie rock and anti-folk wrought with lazy guitar and aching vocals. Recorded in a single day, we laugh in the face of song structure. Lyrical mistakes retroactively intentional.
