COSMIC CROONER

Lyrics

Never Wear Your Own Merch

I can’t wait to start referencing The Perks of Being a Hypocrite
I forgot one important message
Please never wear your own merch ever again

‘Cause I keep changing I keep changing every hour
And I keep loving I keep loving you even stronger

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna fall in love with anyone else
I never I never I never I never
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna fall in love with anyone else
I never I never I never I never

I can’t wait to start showing my collection of library music
If you buy a harpsichord you better use whenever you can

The look of satin the touch of velvet
All good for nothing
Your two story cream-coloured mansion
Strikes a chord

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna fall in love with anyone else
I never I never I never I never
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna fall in love with anyone else
I never I never I never I never

Singing them songs singing them all night long
Singing them songs singing them all night long
Singing them songs singing them all night long
Singing them songs singing them all night long

Swimming Pool

There was a time
I’d close my eyes and I’d see you dancing
To sixties songs petting a dog
On the corner of the swimming pool

I can’t stop sleeping in Hollywood cinemas all day
I guess it’s mostly due to the boring películas they make

Weirdly enough it’s the colours I love
Watching ‘Breathless’ alone reminds me
Of a visual poem
Take a blow from Truffaut
You know you’re alone when they subtitle all of your jokes

I can’t stop sleeping in Hollywood cinemas all day
I guess it’s mostly due to the boring películas they make

Nowadays
Commercial mistakes

The Balcony

I don’t wanna keep hiding in the past
No story is real
Only the future lasts
The crying of the lounge lizard made him weak
Creating arpeggio playlists for free

Ill fitting suits
Tropical shades
There’s nothing to do
Dreaming is free
I can’t stop the bleeding now

Ill fitting suits
Tropical shades
There’s nothing to do
Dreaming is free
I can’t stop the bleeding now

I’m watching the eclipse
Meet me at the plaza
Just in time to catch
The early commute
Romantic from afar
The buckwheat factory
Barely visible from the balcony

I don’t wanna be surrounded by four men
Speechless waiting for commands
A parade of possibilities pass me by
A vaporous slogan tells me why

Ill fitting suits
Tropical shades
There’s nothing to do
Dreaming is free
I can’t stop the bleeding now

I’m watching the eclipse
Meet me at the plaza
Just in time to catch
The early commute
Romantic from afar
The buckwheat factory
Barely visible from the balcony

Mosquito in the Photo Booth

It was a dream I had a while ago
I didn’t know that dreams could be so dark
There was a mosquito in the photo booth
Causing me to blink in front of you

I’m busy decorating your mind
Seeking solace to shade my desires
Hoping that you are so close behind

There are moments when I think of you
Especially now I know your point of view
I saw you vaping in my living room
Teaching me the ropes of solitude

I’m busy decorating your mind
Seeking solace to shade my desires
Surrounded by brutalistic charm
Casting spells on the gray concrete walls

What’s the use of an Egg Chair without a home
Busy decorating

The Girl Who Sold a Lie

The girl who sold a lie
She sleeps on stage at night
You probably think that’s why
She’s someone else online

Papapa
Papapa


The girl who broke my heart
We tried we fell apart
Too cold to blow a kiss
I’m stuck in the abyss

Perfectly still
Whispering poems
It’s not a game I like to play
With you
With you

The girl who’s haunted by the thought that she might die
And somewhere in her eyes
She makes you feel alive

Papapa
Papapa

Perfectly still
Whispering poems
It’s not a game I like to play
With you
With you
Again

Rebeccula

Rebeccula I want your love
I need it now, cause I can’t control
Rebeccula you’re my kind of blue
My paper moon
Please love me too

I wanted more than you can give
It’s not my fault I never win anything
What was I supposed to do

Everytime you say goodbye
Neon signs display your lies
Display your lies

Rebeccula why choose to leave
The honeysuckle love is quite unique
Rebeccula you just slow me down
I’ll catch the sun and you turn around

I wanted more than you can give
It’s not my fault I never win anything
What was I supposed to do

As I flirt with the woke police
It all becomes clear you’re not for me
You’re not for me

J. Bonanza

Jonathan Bonanza leaves his comments without a trace
I beg, steal or borrow as the villains look away
Your words they comfort me
Through the valley of love

You’ve waltzed around loneliness
I’m glad you’ve found your purpose
Fake moustache in the back of the room
You hurry home, as the deadline often comes too soon

The day after a gig
As reality kicks in

He visits all the bars in the city
Don’t forget Café Molly
Making sounds that aren’t pretty

He visits all the bars in the city
Don’t forget Café Molly
Cheap tricks up your sleeve

You’ve waltzed around loneliness
I’m glad you’ve found your purpose
Fake moustache in the back of the room
You hurry home, as the deadline often comes too soon

Lennon DJ

I fell into a riff the other day
One that’s hard to play with raspberry fingers
Swing for the fences as they say
Who says Lennon would have been a DJ today

Put a needle on his face
The rules of comedy have changed

We’ve reached the point of no return
Sophisticated European pop stars
Stop burning matches for pleasure
Collecting album titles with a speed as fast as light
Put the needle aside

The end of comedy is near

Private Club

Your heart is a private club and I’m dying to become a member
Russian bouncers looking sharp and guest lists aren’t available

Maybe because dying people don’t look very appealing
I guess I just want to see the things that I’m feeling

You’re on the highway of love and success
While I’m stuck in Crooners Bay
You’re on the highway of love and success
While I’m stuck in Crooners Bay

Your heart is a feature film and I really want to be the actor
Struggling with the audition tape pretending I can really speak Italian

I’m waiting for the callback knowing it’s probably too late

You’re on the highway of love and success
While I’m stuck in Crooners Bay
You’re on the highway of love and success
While I’m stuck in Crooners Bay

In Love

I don’t need much to make you cry
I’m fighting with melodies all the time
Turn the music down, cause it’s too loud
I don’t wanna hear another sound

In the realm of reason there’s only one good season
To cry
In the realm of reason there’s only one good season
To lie

I don’t wanna be in love
When you’re not around
I just wanna feel your touch
Please stay here with me

Cause I don’t wanna go
I don’t wanna see you go
Please don’t let me show
Cause I think that you oughta know

Sometimes life can be so cruel
I know I wanna spend it with you
Watching movies on a Sunday afternoon
I can’t believe comfy clothing suits you

In the realm of reason there’s only one good season
To sing
In the realm of reason you can drown in treason
At least that’s what I think

I don’t wanna be in love
When you’re not around
I just wanna feel your touch
Please stay here with me

Cause I don’t wanna go
And I don’t wanna see you go
Please don’t let me show
Cause I think that you oughta know

Please stay another while

Deep Down in Jazz

Casually surfing through the century
Solitude defines his artistic ambitions

When he hit the stage the other day
Cosmic Crooner was born in such a way
Ideas arrive at such speed

Deep down in jazz
Three chords
Make him mad
Somewhere he knows
It’s his last show

Using tilt to receive awards
Records reel to reel just to put you at ease

When he hit the stage the other day
Cosmic Crooner was born in such a way
Ideas arrive at such speed

Deep down in jazz
Three chords
Make him mad
Somewhere he knows
It’s his last show

Spoiler Alert

Spoiler alert
Tainted Love is a cover
I thought it was good to mention
‘Cause nowadays it’s hard to be missing
Any information
It’s just an observation
‘Cause I don’t want to make you cry
Oh no

Papapa

Don’t you know (papapa)
What LGBTQIA stands for
It’s not hard to absorb
‘Cause nowadays it’s hard to be missing
Any information
It’s just an observation
‘Cause I don’t want to make you cry
Oh no

It’s hard to be
Stupid these days
It’s hard to be
Stupid these days

Popsicle Place

Popsicle place you can’t get me
Followed for days
Electric stairways up the mountain
Just made him ache
Borrowing lines from this circus
I hope you don’t mind
I feel like a spy sometimes

Soft calfskin boots
On a rooftop right next to you
Truth has been told
But more often they look for gold
I feel like a samurai

I fell in love and it happened in one day
Love is strange
Baby you’re the one to blame
Mood swings in this sweltering nightmare
Blue lines bring comfort for a small amount of time

I can’t stand the scene
And the stories they like to tell me
I’m not in Berlin
Makes me wonder who’s pretending
Shoot for the stars and win

I fell in love and it happened in one day
Love is strange
Baby you’re the one to blame
Mood swings in this sweltering nightmare
Blue lines bring comfort for a small amount of time
Creepy dudes
I’m paraphrasing
Landslides
I think I’m gonna leave this paradise
Golden ticket to Tin Pan Alley
Nine to five
I’m really caught up in these jazzy crimes

I’ve got reasons to keep you in mind
I’m not lying in order to rhyme

Bolero

Suddenly a lust for life
I can’t write about anyone but you
What can I do
Travelling is just a show that we don’t need
‘Cause we’re not hollow
We’re thick as thieves
You’ve lost my keys
But I don’t care, ‘cause I want you forever
I’ll rock you back I’ll rock you forth
Together we’ve found love at last
I’ll dance with you if I’ll have to
But I don’t care, ‘cause I’m not about to impress anyone else
With my moves
Why do I keep ruining film to capture this expensive thrill
Some tapes last forever

Late Night Obsession

Maybe I’ll write a novel
I think it’s good to tell the truth
Sometimes I fall in love
Honey you are always on my mind
I’m facing this late night obsession
With you
‘Cause I’m afraid to lose you baby

But does the world need another melody
Expressing that I feel lonely

It’s been three months
Since I heard that song
If only you came back to me
I received my heartbreaks degree
The world becomes a silhouette for me

I’m facing a late night obsession
With you
‘Cause I’m afraid to lose you baby

But does the world need another melody
Expressing that I feel lonely

Reflexopolis

Forced long hair
I can’t stay there
I’m scared to death
In this age
Sometimes I get a little loud
When I get excited

Let’s built a wall of trust
And watch classics on that same wall
Eyes wide shut
And stop worrying at all
About the bomb
It’s all clear now
That my songs maybe slow
But my love will grow

Getting caught in a dream
Two missed calls from the hot-line suspense comedy
Yesterday’s apocalypstick
Got reviewed today

Let’s built a wall of trust
And watch classics on that same wall
Eyes wide shut
And stop worrying at all
About the bomb
It’s all clear now
That my songs maybe slow
But my love will grow

Goodbye Hollywood

How was I supposed to know
That you’re mean
The music industry isn’t right for you
Goodbye Hollywood
The dream is over
I hardly know you

Grab a popcorn and relax
White shoe thrills they make me laugh
Cracked actor is born
Observational skills
Idiotic mails are sent by you
Goodbye Hollywood
The dream is over
I hardly know you

I don’t care what you think about me
I’m just glad that I’m free
Goodbye Hollywood
Reason to believe that I’m no good

I don’t care what you think about me
I’m just glad that I’m free
Goodbye Hollywood
Reason to believe that I’m no good

Tema di Filippo

Sweet summer lies
Future surprise
I’m no one

It’s just the moon
Howlin’ for you
Red circles
Cross my mind

I just received a call
From the death man on the wall
This time it’s no good friend
It’s the feeling that this could be the end

Funeral parade
Twilight serenades
I wish I could go
‘Cause I can’t stay

Khaki coloured heart
You’re my lucky charm
Pretend to read
Spring tragedies

Crocodile skin
Thoughtcrimes win
On your watch

In Medellín
Tangerine dreams
There’s not much
To discuss

I just received a call
From the death man on the wall
This time it’s no good friend
It’s the feeling that this could be the end

Goosebumps on a Tuesday Night

Sunglass girl
You are my world
And baby you
Are fresher than the other side
Of modern age
Daunting eyes
You hold the dice
Goosebumps on a tuesday night

Rock and roll
Some die young
And some die very old

Postcards from mars
You turn trouble into art
Oh baby you’re cold but true

I can’t believe that you’re going to him
I can’t believe it’s enough for you
I can’t sleep without you by my side
All I wanna see are goosebumps on a tuesday night
Goosebumps on a tuesday night
Oh I can’t see through those opaque blinds
I can’t believe that you go away for goosebumps on a tuesday night
Goose goose goosebumps
On a tuesday night
Goose goose goosebumps
On a tuesday night
Goosebumps on a tuesday night

Girlfriend

My girlfriend she’s so lovely
But she cries way too much
Please don’t tell me when to stop
I’ve got problems, way too much

Ooh ooh

My girlfriend she’s so lovely
But she cries way too much
Oral wisdom leads to nothing
‘Cause I’m living on the dole

A few hours pass by
Sometimes it takes all night

Well my girlfriend she’s so lovely
But she cries way too much (way too much ooh ooh)
Please don’t tell me when to stop
I’ve got problems, way too much

Ooh ooh

A few hours pass by
Sometimes it takes all night

The fog was so thick
I couldn’t see your eyes
Hands in my hair (hands in my hair)
No boy or girl astride
Tangle of thorns
White washed cosmos
Sapore di sale (andiamo)
Sounds delicious

Even though I don’t know what it means
I just want to see you and me
Together (together)
Forever
Together
Forever

Sweet Reprise

Popsicle place
Coconut
Sweet mango
Electric stairways
Families are displaced
