He goes by like summer, he don’t like to be told
I want badly to touch him, but I know that he scolds
Yeah, oh yeah
He goes by like summer, ever fast, ever slow
He goes high like a gull and, like a shark, he goes low
Does it hurt, can you stand that I’m fucking the band?
If you tell me you love me, then you know that’ll I’ll go
Get a little mystery inside me
I can feel our histories entwining
Don’t worry, Daddy, I’m not messed up
It’s just the words from the birds that pick me up
With a heavy heart or fancy-free
Oh, pretty laddy, I can't let go
I’m in love with a boy called Rock ‘N’ Roll
And I know he’ll never die to me
He gets into my brain, through my ears like a worm
He goes right through the skull
All the way down, down to my groin
He is there when I’m crying, every tear he has known
But he shows me his fire, and my fears they are gone
I get a little ecstatic beside him
I can feel my fantasies unwinding
Don’t worry, Daddy, I’m not messed up
It’s just the words from the birds that pick me up
With a heavy heart or fancy-free
Oh, pretty laddy, I can't let go
I’m in love with a boy called Rock ‘N’ Roll
And I know he’ll never die to me
Don’t wanna live a life alone without you, boy
Wanna live a life alone
Don’t wanna head on out alone
Without your three minutes headin’ outs bore
Don’t wanna live a life alone without you
Since I heard you on the radio
Now, I don’t wanna hear another
Song without you, Three
Tell me when you’re coming home
Don’t worry, Daddy, I’m not messed up
It’s just the words from the birds that pick me up
With a heavy heart or fancy-free
Oh, pretty laddy, I can't let go
I’m in love with a boy called Rock ‘N’ Roll
And I know he’ll never die to me

Really dig this album! They're every kind of relatable, and every one is awesome. Extra true for Don't Be so Hard on Yourself, because we all gotta cut ourselves some slack more often. blujacket
Psychedelia at its most fundamental, the new EP from pôt-pot is equal parts Velvet Underground, BJM, and hypnotic vibes. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 30, 2024

The backing tracks on this album have seen serious improvement since Hatchie's debut, and the tracks have more variety. I'm not sure if there's been much improvement on the vocals, but overall this is a better (and longer!) showing from this artist. CyanStrawberry
