Joseph Mount on working with Pinty, NME.
“He sent his parts back so quickly and he found something in the track that he really connected with. I didn’t know who he was beforehand, but I’m now his biggest fan. He definitely slotted into that ‘Metronomy’ world really easily; he’s a great fit and a re...
[Chorus]
Half an inch off of six foot tall
Does God pity this fool? (Ayy)
Half an inch off of six foot tall
Does God pity this fool? (Give it to 'em, give it to 'em)
(Ayy, yep, give it to 'em, give it to 'em)
Half an inch off of six foot tall
Does God pity this fool?
She's playing mind games with Michael
I bounce off a broken branch and stand tall
Bounce off a broken branch and stand tall
Bounce off a broken branch and stand tall
[Verse 1]
It might pause for a sec, but the gloom shall resume
Gemini life, ya best kiss the dice, I'm a summertime dude
River cottage flooded and fucked up my food
Feet of a hobbit, I skip over dunes
Like a rare stеak, I'll be done too soon
Fork in my belly 'causе my baby is a boom
The type to liven tea up with a shroom
Type these letters right up to the moon
But he couldn't keep up 'cause he's cupping on a spoon
Walking around with the whos of the whos
Looking forward to the last place you lost your mind to
I'm in tune with the off keys of the room
I'm riding high and I don't need a broom
My mind comes alive when the darkness looms
Dreams of red carpet, suit from Koons
Pass the ball 'cause I got a shot too
Play the role of a shotter, I do
I smell a copper without seeing blue
I sell my soul without selling who I am
This dog keeps barking 'cause you're pecking on his ham
Gremlins grunt like it was slam jam
Dad was a postman
The only way that we were getting bands, damn
You were buying drinks whilst I was getting banned
Like who are these peasants eating up off my land?
Fuck patriarchy, tea cup I slam
My mood is high, I'm in a jim of a jam
Like pow, clap your hands
[Verse 2]
For free never did come a grand
I see forty-three and know it's going to plan
On the moon I land 'cause this world I can't stand
Like God, give me a helping hand
Life's disappearing like hourglass sand
Oh damn, oh damn
It's just a quick insight into the life of Pinty on a Metronomy beat
You know what I'm saying
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, man
Half an inch off of six foot tall
Does God pity this fool?
She's playing mind games with Michael
I bounce off a broken branch and stand tall
Bounce off a broken branch and stand tall
Bounce off a broken branch and stand tall
