Royals
Length: 3:20
Release: 2013
Opening Lyrics:
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I’m not proud of my address
In a torn up town, no postcode envy
Gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin’ in the bathroom
Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashin’ the hotel room
We don’t care
We’re driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody’s like
Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don’t care
We aren’t caught up in your love affair
Team
Length: 3:45
Release: 2013
Opening Lyrics:
We’ve not yet lost all our graces
The hounds will stay in chains
Look upon Your Greatness and She’ll
Send the call out, send the call out
Send the call out, send the call out
Send the call out, send the call out
Send the call out, send the call out
Send the call out, send the call out
Send the call out, send the call out
Send the call out, send the call out
Send the call out, send the call out
They’re in their finery
A hundred jewels on throats
A hundred jewels between teeth
Now bring my boys in
Their skin in craters like the moon
The moon we love like a brother
While he glows through the room
Green Light
Length: 4:03
Release: 2017
Opening Lyrics:
We order different drinks at the same bars
I know about what you did and I wanna scream the truth
She thinks you love the beach, you’re such a damn liar
Hope they bite you
Thought you said that you would always be in love
But you’re not in love no more
Did it frighten you
How we kissed when we danced on the light up floor?
On the light up floor
Brand new sounds in my mind
But honey I’ll be seein’ you ‘ever I go
But honey I’ll be seein’ you down every road
I’m waiting for it, that green light, I want it
Ribs
Length: 4:18
Release:2018
Opening Lyrics:
“Lover’s Spit” left on repeat
My mom and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy getting old
We can make it so divine
We can talk it good
How you wish it would be all the time
“Lover’s Spit” left on repeat
My mom and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy getting old
The drink you spilt all over me
“Lover’s Spit” left on repeat
My mom and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy getting old
Liability
Length: 2:53
Release: 2017
Opening Lyrics:
He don’t wanna know me
Says he made the big mistake of dancing in my storm
Says it was poison
Into the arms of the girl that I love
The only love I haven’t screwed up
She’s so hard to please, but she’s a forest fire
In the living room, but all that a stranger would see
Is one girl swaying alone, stroking her cheek
