Alex Lahey - Lotto In Reverse Lyrics






"We just go whenever?"
"Yeah"

Sitting in your bedroom that I've never seen before
There's a Barbarella poster hanging on your wall
Jane Fonda, power starter, not one to ignore
You said you wanted me 'til you didn't anymore
You live far away, there was no way it could work
I thought I'd take a gamble, won the lotto in reverse

I think you should know that I really wanna say
I shouldn't have come over just so you could have your way
I think you should know that I really wanna say
I shouldn't have come over just so you could have your way

Sitting in a bar now with some friends I don't know
Pretending they can't see me, looking like I want to go
Now you've got your back to me, I just want to go home
Am I scared of losing you or am I scared to be alone?
Either way, you pretty much can't treat me any worse
I thought I'd take a gamble, won the lotto in reverse

I think you should know that I really wanna say
I shouldn't have come over just so you could have your way
I think you should know that I really wanna say
I shouldn't have come over just so you could have your way

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I washed both my hands of you when I flew ho-o-o-o-o-o-ome
In an aeroplane bathroom, this to-and-fro, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Could have never been sustained, I wished I'd kno-o-o-o-o-o-own
You didn't want me back the same
You're so fucked up anyway, yeah!

I think you should know that I really wanna say
I shouldn't have come over just so you could have your way
I think you should know that I really wanna say
I shouldn't have come over just so you could have your way
Just so you could have your way with me

    The definition of simple....this is literally grabbing words she would speak & puttn them in a track. Her simplicity, just like
    Courtney Barnett...blows me away. This while being simple in it's lyrics is most certainly complex in it's hurt.....
    She really is fantastic to listen to. Ya just gotta love TRIPLE J.

    T.... W....

    Her band are pretty good at creating multi-layered counterpoint melodies to make all the songs "pop" (literally) though, I feel like they don't get enough credit. I worry how the band don't smile or seem to have fun while playing... did they have an argument? :(
