[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]
Hey, Penny, with your apron on cooking up a bottle of fuzz
You'd do more damage with your wellies on running for the Python bus
And I don't mind, you and the things you do
So you shouldn't mind all the little things I do
[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
[Verse 2: Kyle Falconer]
Hey, Penny, with your protein pills picking up your pictures for clues
And don't ask me when your man comes from 'cause you act as if you've nothing lose
[Pre-Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
And I don't mind, you and all the silly little things you do
So you shouldn't mind, me and all the silly little things I do
[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day, ehh
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day, ehh, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Kyle Falconer & Kyle Falconer with Neeve Zahra]
And I don't mind, you and all the things you do
So you shouldn't mind, me and all the messy little things I do
Just to get you
Oh, I'll admit it I want you to listen to me
[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
You could be up at the crook, anytime of the day
And ohh, ohh, ohh
[Bridge: Kyle Falconer]
I need a second to tie my shoes
I'm gonna tie my shoes and come find you
I need a second to tie my lace
I'm gonna tie my lace for your embrace
Living in the moment at the beggar's ball
Don't have the balls, so she stands so tall
Coming 'round the corner from the patients view an' thankful I don't take em' all
I need a second to tie my shoes
I'm gonna tie my shoes and come find you
I need a second to tie my lace
I'm gonna tie my lace for your embrace
The beat goes faster but the lippy tongue
And words like that make me feel young
Keep on spitting at the cavalry
It's this town of the century
I need a second to tie my shoes, I'm gonna tie my shoes and come find you
I need a second to tie my lace
I'm gonna tie my lace for your embrace
[Outro: Kyle Falconer]
I need a second to tie my shoes
I'm gonna tie my shoes and come find you
I need a second to tie my laces
Tie my lace for your embrace
I live for now, the beat's so long
Tie your face and do so wrong
I need a second to tie my shoes, I'm gonna tie my shoes and come find you
I need a second to tie my laces
Tie my lace for your embrace
I need a second to tie my shoes, I'm gonna tie my shoes and come find you
I need a second to tie my laces
Tie my lace for your embrace

Yeah, so there’s a song called ‘Penny’ on Ropewalk by The View which was recorded in Germany with Albert Hammond Jr in 2015. It was a weird time as nobo...
Yes, Kyle confirmed this with Northern Exposure Magazine:
Penny was a real woman that I knew. So our old drummer Mo’s (Stephen Morrison) girlfriend’s sister was Penny and she used to come to all the gigs. She was quite pally with us all. That was the only Penny that I knew…oh and Penny Morris, who...
