Tortoise Lyrics

[Chorus: Joel Baker]
Let’s go for a walk love
Tell you all these things that I thought of
Singing out your name like a chorus
You breathe life into my sawdust
I don’t know it’s more just
Why would I be touring?
If you're not on the tour bus
We should spin the globe and just go where it calls us
Ordinary paupers
Backpacks, borders wonder like your tortoise

[Verse 1: Frankie Stew]
Grow old with you yeah I’d love too
I can’t see anybody else but us two
People know we’re together, they won’t talk or touch you
Even if I’m on tour then you're on the bus too
Sounds bait but I think I love you
When your sister got ill I can tell it done you
When my brother got ill it done me
Sometimes it’s clear but still hard to see
I got two full lungs but it’s still hard to breathe
I can’t describe it but you know what I mean
Only got one plan I ain’t got a plan B
Wanna get a yard, wanna have a family
But I’m scared I don’t have enough P
I know that money’s not everything you need
But it’s hard cos life’s not cheap
More time I think about life it gets deep

[Chorus: Joel Baker]
Let’s go for a walk love
Tell you all these things that I thought of
Singing out your name like a chorus
You breathe life into my sawdust
I don’t know it’s more just
Why would I be touring?
If you're not on the tour bus
We should spin the globe and just go where it calls us
Ordinary paupers
Backpacks, borders wonder like your tortoise

[Verse 2: Frankie Stew]
I’m still wondering
They say that love is a funny thing
I wrote a song for you it’s nothing big
Can’t hit the right notes but I love to sing
Dreamer
Me and you should team up
Know you love your free stuff
Fleabag, re-runs
Take you to the seafront
Rather go travelling than Ibiza
When things aren’t going my way that’s when I need ya
My worst nightmares I can’t see ya
Or it's either
Stop music be a full-time teacher
Not cos the job but because I’m still learning
I’m still working
Been through it but it’s still worth it
I don’t know where I’m going but I feel purpose
And when it comes to you yeah I feel certain
Not a doubt in my mind
Wonder why I feel so proud all the time

[Chorus: Joel Baker]
Let’s go for a walk love
Tell you all these things that I thought of
Singing out your name like a chorus
You breathe life into my sawdust
I don’t know it’s more just
Why would I be touring?
If you're not on the tour bus
We should spin the globe and just go where it calls us
Ordinary paupers
Backpacks, borders wonder like your tortoise

[Bridge/Outro: Joel Baker]
All my love
I wanna give you all my stars
Wanna give you all my love
Wanna give you all my heart
Wanna give you all my love
I wanna give you all my stars
Wanna give you all my love
Wanna give you all my heart

How did the song come together?

Tortoise actually materialised in a funny way. We saw Joel Baker post a video of him singing the chorus and playing guitar on his Insta, and thought it was incredible. We hit him up and asked if he wanted to co-write a song off it and got in the studio together.

What was the process of making the song like?

Joel sent over some guitar and vocal stems and we built the beat and wrote the verses. Once we had a demo down, Ashley came in and laid down the keys.

The way Joel Baker works inspired this tune, was a pleasure to work with him and he kind of led the way on this one. We brought him down to studio and turned it into something special.
