Keys To The Horse Violet Houses [Intro: Fresh Violet] I got the keys, aye I got the keys, what? I got the keys, uh [Verse 1: Fresh Violet] When I want something then I take -ay Nothing ever handed on a plate -ay Working on my craft till I have the last laugh It’s my time so I’m not gonna wait When I’m on the mic I never stutter - ay Bitter Betty bought a bit of butter - ay Started from the bottom in a gutter then I made my way That’s word to ya mother Word to your Daddy, young girl is a baddy Hitting that green no caddy Got the keys to the Masi Got me feelin so happy I’m a bitch so they calling Lassie -ay I got the cheese and the sauce I got the keys to the horse I get the frequent applauses I am the girl they endorse Light years ahead with the force Looking so state of the art I make them say oh my gawd Now they are all in my yard Cos I made the mistake of making a milkshake And kicking it like krav maga [Chorus: Card Houses] Make our own way out, way out Summer setting on your town Never see about it Steeple only crowdin’ Homin’ in I found it Drop a thousand miles and countin’ [Verse 2: Card Houses] Drop it like the middle of a planet Swapping in a little bit of matter Closet is a bit aristocratic But I’m swimming in the vatican And padding with mannequins And listening to static If you’re looking for me Ask the switching board For Hemingway Doin’ benihanas in my roller skates Antimatter fascinator Matching with the calibrator Madam in the saddle Riding on an alligator Mama-say mama-sa mama-coo-sa I got my shades pulled down In my uncle’s car Don’t need a pencil Cause I only do quantum bars Man, the battalion always Got the je ne sais quoi Emitting gamma radiation Like Sag A Star A lot of samples on this track But the snare’s real sparse Bruh Deoffilis slis-sla Your fantasy smizmar Confetti calisthenics Hitting up on your SIM card

[Verse 1: Fresh Violet] Why you acting so shy Oh boy when you looking so fly? I could just die (ooh) Every time that you look in my eyes Everything you do just turns me on Oh boy never leave me alone (uh) Won’t do you no harm Take me in your arms tonight If you could read my mind (boy) You would know heaven ain’t hard to find You look so fine I wanna take the time just to make you mine Let’s get it on till the break of dawn The world is ours we can take it on Worlds collide and then they make a storm We never fake it oh no no Cos it’s too real The way you make me feel I cannot deal It’s so surreal [Verse 2: Card Houses] What is love? Is it a day of the week? Is it the bones in our skeletons, The shoes on our feet? Is it a new patisserie on Elizabeth St Specialising in pies made of Potato and leek? Hmm Perhaps love is similar to romance Slow dance With specific footwork but no hands The things we are enamoured with Out and about take your favourite Spouse by the abdomen Is it but a set of electrical reactions From the dopamine receptors When the chemical attaches? The bees in the trees And the birds on the branches A man and his wife in a brand new Mitsubishi Lancer Only 30 grand sir Drive away, no more to pay Dual airbags And rear vision cameras Is it the fat of the land? An unplanned getaway On board a catamaran?

[Fresh Violet] Got my backpack on and I’m feeling alright Got my snapback on and I’m ready ride I gotta set it off Get it now or else eventually Gotta be better than whatever I was doing yesterday Bye to the old me I’m ready to rock it Got everything I need inside of Me and my pocket Gotta prove that I got nothing to lose Stay winning, making moves Never snooze till the day that I’m finished [Card Houses] Gotta get a move on Gotta get my socks and my shoes on Hittin up Vermillion when I Get a new tune on Ain't gonna lose Two on two at the gym match Sandshrew used sand-attack On the syntax Waxing lyrical on Virtues of the great ball Battleground is sixteen by eight tall Safeguard never made a safe wall But we stay confident Sableye’s a ghost/dark composite [Fresh Violet] Ghost/dark in park Long grass stay swishing Sharp vision but listen That’s an ekans hissing Stay saddled up And make that ponyta cantor Never stopping keep it Hotter than a magmar And next I’ll catch an onyx That’s a promise Team Mystic on my instinct But always stay honest Stay intense and stay lighting incense Gained a lot but I know I shed my innocence [Card Houses] Opposites attract when your Hat’s on to play the game Three minutes all it takes To Saffron on a magnet train This stuff is hard to explain But Ima try it out Go to PokéCentres when I'm tired out Haters need a water type If they're to put the fire out Dire hit is critical and Knocking out the bivalve Which cry’s loudest And which one's Got the most chutzpah? Take the low road Up to higher ground [Fresh Violet] Look back when I started with a Squirtle to hurt you Now I got a scyther like a cypher Come full circle Live in the gym where I train to win Stay sharp like a magikarp fin In the ring where I battle I hear the roar of the stadium Always makes me want to go and play again Never keep them waiting then I got the stone edge and I pledge To serve it up like catering [Card Houses] One time for the masters Two more for the apprentices Catching rattatas and making Real wack sentences What lends itself to Hours upon hours practising Beating on the traps Ever since I was a sapling Hatchling Latching on potions for dispatching CH and Violet ain't got Time for rehashing In the crowd it was like Teeth for the gnashing Cause synthesiser frequencies Were clashing But Been travelling all day, all night Unraveling with latter-day foresight Still trying to bring the life to the passion And pulling hairpins on the turnpike Been travelling all day, all night Unraveling with latter-day foresight Forthright Chasing for the limelight Catching vibes for a Pokédex in springtime

[Fresh Violet] [Chorus] Stay up all night Tequila sunrise Gotta remember this night For the rest of our lives Don’t bring me down When we’re hitting the town Gonna get turned up and feel alright Stay up all night Tequila sunrise Gotta remember this night For the rest of our lives Don’t bring me down When we’re hitting the town Gonna shake it till the morning light [Verse 1] Goddamn I am so ready tonight My whole crew is stunning Turning heads left to right Ya home boy can stay home Not on the invite I just wanna let loose Cos I’ve been wound so tight Weight of the world on my shoulders I’m gonna brush it off Pour it up, pour it up Too much is not enough Get loose get low Everybody buckle up I’m gonna drink and dance and Lose my shit till I can’t stand up Gonna stay on my paper Gonna stack them millas The haters come crawling back Like caterpillars If you’re salty not my fault G We are way too numb to feel ya Life might give you lemons But I got a bottle of Tequila [Chorus] [Verse 2] Get your butts on the floor and wiggle Hey fellas let’s play piggy in the middle Make me a sandwich With the white bread in the middle And maybe we can find the Answer to the riddle Hell yeah I’m on my grind now We’re all tipsy ain’t nobody mind now Boy I’m gonna show you How I like to get down DJ keep that record spinning right round And I got some dude tryna hit me up Wants me to turn down to turn for what And I ain’t gonna stop While the beats still drop But I think I’m gonna Need to do another shot [Chorus] [Verse 3] So, tell me, do I have this correctly? I’m doing shots while you’re At home sipping Tetley Hope you’re feeling super superior For your sudden abstaining Little Miss Crazy Cat Lady in training Well fine stay home and pet your kitty I’m gonna go out and hit the city Mascara and heels on looking pretty If you’re feeling all alone Don’t come to me for pity Think that you’re so far above us all Put yourself up on your pedestal Well, you wanna do that, I guess it’s your call (Cough, cough, cough) Excuse me hairball [Chorus] Meow

[Verse 1: Card Houses] It's hocus pocus, low rope for the posters Toe-to-toe with no hopes in the coaster Overblown and thrown smoke Don't stoke one ghost in the processor Load postponement Honing with a minimum of impress Intermittent simulated Pinnacle of ingress Wait a minute Kindling could simmer some Borderline infinite cannot pick one Imminently dissipates The evidence when it's done Dislodge my wiring No gas left for automatically perspiring Batteries are tiring And the backup cylinders are firing Diagram of tomorrow's diaries Don't take it lightly Anyone said “let there be high seas” Let there be a moment With some privacy Predecessor of the second best When it is timely Give another century We'll be so tidy [Chorus: Card Houses] Closing songs In no ways coming from [Verse 2: Fresh Violet] Feeling like the most Facturing the host Augmented seconds like I’m Summoning a ghost Fumbling the feel Swerving at the wheel Omnipresent promises like a done deal And I’m getting in my way I’m tripping on my feet I’m breaking up the circle But I’m feeling complete They told me get a grip, get a grip, get a grip But I, but I only feel it slip Setting up the stage left for the exit Let them know the words Not how I meant them Such a cold world, cold world In my shell turning into a pearl Like the petals of a flower Open to the sun’s rays Sleep in on Sundays Worlds collide, worlds divide Calamity is amplified [Chorus] [Guitar solo] [Fresh Violet] Such a cold, cold world Such a cold, cold world Such a cold, cold world Such a cold, cold world [Card Houses] Come in, come in, come in Silent (silent) Come in, come in, come in
