BEING BORING ( TENNANT/LOWE) LYRICS I came across a cache of old photos and invitations to teenage parties. “Dress in white,” one said with quotations from someone’s wife, a famous writer in the nineteen-twenties. When you’re young you find inspiration in anyone who’s ever gone and opened up a closing door. She said we were never feeling bored. ‘Cause we were never being boring, we had too much time to find for ourselves. And we were never being boring, we dressed up and fought, then thought “make amends.” And we were never holding back, or worried that time would come to an end. When I went, I left from the station with a haversack and some trepidation. Someone said “If you’re not careful, you’ll have nothing left and nothing to care for in the nineteen-seventies.” But I sat back, and looking forward, my shoes were high, and I had scored. I’d bolted through a closing door, and I would never find myself feeling bored. ‘Cause we were never being boring, we had too much time to find for ourselves. And we were never being boring, we dressed up and fought, then thought “make amends.” And we were never holding back, or worried that time would come to an end. We were always hoping that, looking back you could always rely on a friend. Now I sit with different faces in rented rooms and foreign places. All the people I was kissing, some are here and some are missing in the nineteen-nineties. I never dreamt that I would get to be the creature that I always meant to be. But I thought, in spite of dreams, you’d be sitting somewhere here with me. ‘Cause we were never being boring, we had too much time to find for ourselves. And we were never being boring, we dressed up and fought, then thought “make amends.” And we were never holding back, or worried that time would come to an end. We were always hoping that, looking back you could always rely on a friend. ‘Cause we were never being boring, we had too much time to find for ourselves. And we were never being boring, we dressed up and fought, then thought “make amends.” And we were never being boring, we were never being bored, ‘cause we were never being boring, we were never being bored.

TAKE CARE ( Alex Chilton) Take care not to hurt yourself Beware of the need for help You might need too much And people are such Take care, please, take care Some people read idea books And some people have pretty looks But if your eyes are wide And all words aside Take care, please, take care This sounds a bit like goodbye In a way it is I guess As I leave your side Ive taken the air Take care, please, take care Take care, please, take care
