lyrics
This house is a mess
And I am living in this filth
And the doctor would say
That it is bad for my health
But I have better, better things to do
Than always tidy up after
Is it any wonder that you can’t catch your breath
When the air you’re breathing in is saturated with the dust from the last mess you made?
Can you remember when was the last time you washed a plate?
Aren’t you embarrassed that every room in this house is in a state?
And I am living in this filth
And the doctor would say
That it is bad for my health
But I have better, better things to do
Than always tidy up after
Is it any wonder that you can’t catch your breath
When the air you’re breathing in is saturated with the dust from the last mess you made?
Can you remember when was the last time you washed a plate?
Aren’t you embarrassed that every room in this house is in a state?

Little Battles

Theatre Is Evil
by Amanda Palmer & The Grand Theft OrchestraIt's no secret we're somewhat inspired by The Dresden Dolls. AFP's 2nd solo studio album is full of glitz, synths and songs you want to dance madly around your attic to while sobbing your heart out.

The Bullet Within
by Birdeatsbabysupported by 5 fans who also own “Tidy Song”
An oddball gem I stumbled on by accident. While I might have been tempted away, the music hooked me in so aggressively as to count as kidnapping. It's musically rather pretty with a bit of a broadway touch, but the emotions expressed are intensely dark.

One In A Thousand
by Obey Robotssupported by 5 fans who also own “Tidy Song”
Before every vacation, I face the challenge of finding fresh music that is dynamic but not too hard, and that is so emotional and catchy that it doesn't get on my nerves after just two days of touring. During that search I discovered OBEY ROBOTS and it took me only a few moments to put "One in a thousand" on the playlist. The album rocks, combines strong "Therapy?"-like guitars with Laura's soulful, distinctive vocals to quite a few hits, just check "One of these days" or "Next Summer"!
