  • The Piss the Perfume EP (CD)
    Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Hayley Mary; a wee pocket rocket with the voice of a giant angel. A bona fide persona with no shortage of past achievements, but they are not why we are here. Superstars live in the future.

    The Piss, The Perfume, the singer’s debut EP, was written mainly while Hayley was working in Smith’s Deli, (“the best caff”, according to one local taxi driver, in Edinburgh). She and her partner, Johnny, relocated from Sydney to the Scottish capital last year to live. The EP’s title track, designed to turn a page between two eras of Sydney life, has all the optimism and irony that nostalgia can afford, ‘Like a Woman Should’ continues the contradiction of attitudes, disguising a heartfelt love song written for a real and life-affirming man, as a social commentary about the conceptual collective fear of the so-called ‘toxic men’ we are ever reminded may be looming.

    Produced by Scott Horscroft (Silverchair, The Presets, Tkay Maidza, Middle Kids), The Piss, The Perfume fuses Americana, Australiana and punk songwriting with Motown inspired rhythms and soaring vocal style.

lyrics

I see her in you dreams
I thought her on your brain
If it were up to me, well none of us would change
But time will stake her claim
As it goes on and on forever
Ordinary me, but with you on my mind
I see it in rewind
I know you’re going home
But since we’ve said goodbye
Well I don’t wanna know
How time can waste away
As it goes on and on forever
Ordinary me, but with you on my mind
I’ll be more and more than better
More than I should be
Because for you I try
Yes it’s for you I try
So don’t go changing, changing, changing, changing, changing
I don’t wanna be lonely my whole life
As if time could waste away
But it goes on and on forever
Ordinary me, but with you on my mind
I’ll be more and more than better
All that I could be
Because for you I try
Yes it’s for you I try
I said for you I try
