Hit The Wall 03:11
Scenes deluge a dream Stars shine bright in destiny Is it just a fantasy? Ah, come on and tell me It’s my reality Master of insanity I’m beginning to see beyond or before It’s another currency when you talk, talk love It’s what you groove who you smooth In your talk, talk world It’s another currency that you might try some Ba-la-by jive some It’s who you hold close to the wall When you hit it Trees uproot a path for me Sign of opportunity Are we just all history? Ah, come on and tell me Are you holding back With your playing card decks I’m beginning to see beyond or before It’s another currency when you talk, talk love It’s another currency when you talk, talk love It’s who you groove who you smooth In your talk, talk world It’s another currency that you might try some Ba-la-by jive some It’s who you hold close to the wall When you hit it, you did it yah

Photograph 03:14
You laugh a lot as the sun so hot You really got to take your incredible disguise off Take a subway trip into town for only a dollar thirty-five Watch Norman’s moustache as he becomes electrically alive Father’s holiday he even cried at the night Thinking she’s the anti-christ, he never realized she lied And she talks to me and is eager to agree I can see her speaking of her love to me Take a hatchet to her head, don’t look inside it yet Don’t be in a hurry to be buried for she’s not yet dead My rich Dowitcher aunt is standing over there A king tried at once to try and make love to her It’s only the experience that’ll do it once Neither of you could have the baby But no need to be sad there’s pills today for that I just don’t want you to be a jury in your mother’s disguise If you really start to care about your jewels and fur Look at your mother’s photo and say so what It happened to her Take a hatchet to her head, don’t look inside it yet ‘Till it has finally gone down behind the funfair Where you really haven’t a care Feel as free as the air Never mind which way and how and what and where You go

When the night falls you’re on your own Do you make a sound? That’s not what we found Just a few more years it becomes clear That you’ll need to wait Until the stars are aligned with your sudden grace You’re a real bad bunny and you don’t care You started out with nothing and no shares You’re a real bad bunny and you don’t care You started out with nothing and no shares Of what you like When you strike As the day arise you stand your ground Do you make a scene? It’s not what it seems In a little while you’ll get your praise But if you still need help Better prepare to stare into infinity You’re a real bad bunny and you don’t care You started out with nothing and no shares You’re a real bad bunny and you don’t care You started out with nothing and no shares And no cares You’re a real bad bunny and you don’t care You’re a real bad bunny and you don’t care You’re a real bad bunny

Booster Club 02:46
Phone it in you’re golden It’s all under your thumb Pick a plant that’s poison Regulate by a pound Join your booster club It’ll boost your appearance Make it with a clearance Every rooting minute It’s a booster show with a curb appeal to be all fine It’s a booster show and we know how you feel To free your mind Sail away this evening To another show Come back for supper Take another go Join the booster club It’ll boost your appearance Sign off with a clearance Every rooting minute It’s a booster show with a curb appeal to be all fine It’s a booster show with some curb appeal to free your mind It’s a booster club It’s a booster (booster) club

You can find a safe serenity And be happy everywhere because faith’s your key On a Sunday road at the end of the pole If it matters much to me cause I am free Hardly a sound until tomorrow Gotta listen to your fear for sale When I come around across the high road Then I hear the whispers trail Made to hum in the throng That’ll ring forth cup That is something left to be said That I can see That I can see Probable probable Have it shattered for a soul’s decree I glimpse the sign It’s all on display with time It’s no matter where you be that I can see Yeah, I can see I obtain liberty

Sailing across the ocean blue With nothing but my thoughts and you The waves are crashing the sky is clear Together we’ll conquer all my dear At Atlantic Columbia we’ll make our way Through the winds and waves every day With love as our compass we’ll never stray At Atlantic Columbia we’ll find our way The sun is setting the stars alight Our love will shine for ever divine We’ll dance beneath the moonlight shine One journey left, one journey done At Atlantic Columbia we’ll make our way Through the winds and waves every day With love as our compass we’ll never stray At Atlantic Columbia we’ll make our way Through the winds and waves every day With love as our compass we’ll never stray At Atlantic Columbia we’ll find our way Hey, hey At Atlantic Columbia

Woke up this morning the world in a haze Been feeling so small in so many ways But deep inside my heart there’s a fire that burns So strong it is every lesson learned Every bridge that turned out in my own way There’s a voice from the past whispering low “Find your own way and let your spirit glow” With every tear, every scar that I bear I grow taller, strong rise the air Hold the scalers blues Growing big within my soul Letting my light shine a-through No ceiling walls Hold the scalers blues With every heartbeat I read I find a goal that sits ahead The core of everything I hear Paul tell tales of yesterday And she of hearts dismay The songs that guide the way From the silly dance on the lane To the driving drivers riding all the way Hold the scalers blues Growing big within my soul Letting my light shine a-through No ceiling walls Hold the scalers blues With every heartbeat I read I find a goal that sits ahead The core of everything

Send Nudes 02:31
Send nudes if you can and be an honest fan Send nudes if you can it’ll be a helping hand In case of fire don’t let anyone rush ya Stop, drop, and roll is all you can really do I’m told So send nudes if you can, be an honest fan Send nudes if you can, it’ll help us understand What goes on in your house is a matter of business Let’s not hope a motel and you’re taking it off there Send nudes if you care Send nudes if you dare Send nudes if you can and be an only’s fan Send nudes if you can it’ll help us understand, I swear

Ran away from the light as it would preach About some lost fleet The rocks pushed the sea and how do you see Not carefully, not carefully Finally the dawn descended on to the banks And my account wasn’t in stand Hot potato outstanding they got four My friend Delaney and two more I do not know how it got there, I Willing to pretend it’s always been there I do not know how it got there, I Willing to pretend it’s always been there Especially when the dancers’ danced Was when the fiction held its hand But seeing the two’s instead of the four Made me shiver, scalped turned gold Elemental physics on one hand On the other a stick in the fence Jeez I thought and wasps flew by you Lucky for me you were my shoe I do not know how it got there, I Willing to pretend it’s always been there I do not know how it got there, I Willing to pretend it’s always been there

about

Indie popsters Ex Norwegian’s 14th album serves up eleven sun-drenched, irreverent rock anthems perfect for those bright day radio rotations and today’s edgy streaming playlists. Tracks like “Real Bad Bunny” and “Scalers Blues” blend irresistible melodic twists that turn quirky lyrics into clever hooks, epitomizing what great pop music should sound like. While songs such as “Short On The Wire” and “Send Nudes” radiate a full band sound, the album reveals its secret: it’s an impressive solo endeavor via Roger Houdaille. The playful lyric from “Extra” — “the band is extra, we got none tonight, it’s alright” — lends a cheeky nuance to the album’s title, Sooo Extra, suggesting there’s more beneath the surface than first meets the ear.
