Lyrics: OXBLOOD SHOES

Love me
Love my ox blood shoes
Love the words that I use
Love my cynical tone
The fact that I never phone

Love me
Love my psorytic skin
My unbelievable shins
The way I burst into tears
Frequency grows with the years

CHORUS
Just like my ox blood shoes
My sole is cracked
And my tong is loose

Will you throw us away
Or will you dry me out
On that rainy day

Love me
For trying too hard to please
For what nobody sees
For my perpetual rage
Why must things always change

Love me
The bad directions I take
The fact that I cant recall
A date you write on the wall
Or even anyone’s name
Dear god its always the same

CHORUS
Instrumental

Love me
love my runcible face
My lack of measurable grace
To see you need to be told
Your heart and soul are both gold

CHORUS
Repeat

VERSE
Love me
Because I love you true
Because I love you so hard
My love could flatten the Dales
I could love for Wales
Could draw oil out of shales


VERSE
Love me
Because without it I’d cease
To believe in myself
Or in anyone else
My ox blood shoes
Would remain on the shelf
Beside my will to exist
Doubt my hands could make fists
Doubt my breath would persist

CHORUS
Repeat

VERSE
Love me
Love the dog we don't have
The bike I sold for a song
Our kids who all turned out strong
Our coffee table’s a log
The way it works when we snog
