At one point the album was gonna be called love and confidence and I wrote a lot of self help-y tracks like Charlie and Look back in laughter...
lyrics
You're gonna have to let it pass
I know it hurts but just relax
One day you'll look back in laughter
You'll look back in laughter
You'll look back and laugh
Say ahh
Bubble down the stress
Do it like a porn star
get it off your stress
we bubble down the streets
like we ain't got self respect
Screwface you know we ain't serious
(No)
Serious, no long face like Leona
Do or do not no try like Yoda
2013 chage your persona
Keep that lime away from my corona like
I'm on the magic quest
To be the biggest tree in the big ol forest
and Lady Luck's bosom is the one I will caress
The audience, the audience's attention I arrest but
Sometimes things don't go to plan
Life will deal you will a firm backhand
I'm in the pothole spinning my wheels
I really know how it feels to be
Stressed and ting
It all blows up in your face and ting
Failure, bitter like tonic and gin
Don't know how to begin, again
And the missus says stop it
You're unattractive when you're grumpy, drop it
Put your palava behind ye
Trust me, one day
You're gonna look back and laugh

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
