Knee Length (free) 02:22
lyrics

Yeah it's nice, but is it knee length? Sure is nice, but is it nearly as long as it needs to be? It is knee length, is it knee length, breadth and width? Are you with it? Is it knee length? It comes as a crushing blow if you're going away. My senses fail, leave a smell in a potpourri. How will I know where to go if you don't lead me that way? What I could learn in a day, I'll just forget anyway. All I know, is it's nice but is it knee length? Sure is nice, but is it knee length. It comes as a crushing blow if you're going away. My senses fail, leave a smell in a potpourri. How will I know where to go if you don't lead me that way? What I could learn in a day, I'll just forget anyway. All I know, is it's nice but is it knee length? It might be nice, but is it knee length.

The Comedian (free) 03:47
lyrics

I know you've been on the receiving end Of our friend the comedian But we don't find it funny anymore It hurts me personally and deeply To know you were completely put down on the spot but, We don't find it funny anymore That there is the lowest common denominator Why should it matter to you? You don't need flattery too And that there really shouldn't be bothering you Or be smothering you or giving your life a commentary too I know he wants to be a comedian Well feel free my friend Laughter is not a guarantee And it pains me, oh it pains me deeply To think that I naively Shared a joke with you before I don't find it funny anymore We all like a laugh but does it have to be at someone's expense We like a laugh but does it have to be at someone I know its you who's come out worse off All of your Bunsen's burnt off And the classroom is laughing at you It kills me, it nigh on destroys me And what annoys me is I don't know what any of its for, But, I don't find it funny anymore That there is the lowest common denominator Why should it matter to you? You don't need flattery too And that there really shouldn't be bothering you Or be smothering you or giving your life a commentary too We all like a laugh but does it have to be at someone's expense. We like a laugh but does it have to be at someone I know you've been on the receiving end Of our friend the comedian But we don't find it funny anymore

Probably (free) 03:26

Nobody says 'I don't want anything to do with you', not properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best And nobody says 'Those things you said, they hurt my feelings', properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best I don't see a reason, I don't hear a rhyme and I don't see any fault of mine, not properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best Nobody says 'Those things you said, they went to your head', not properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best And nobody admits they don't have enough money for things, not properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best But I want you to realise these situations that we're faced with are not situations to get hung on. They're beneath you and they're beneath me. not properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best Nobody says 'I don't want anything to do with you', not properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best Nobody says what they want to and nobody guessed what's eating you and nobody does what they want to on a day they choose and it's probably for the best not properly, honestly Probably for a reason, probably for the best

Profound Unhappiness (free) 01:29
lyrics

I'm giving up on unhappiness, you ought to do the same Out with the old dead unhappiness are you going to slit your wrists? No you're not, so you better get a grip. I'm giving up on unhappiness, you ought to do the same Out with the old dead unhappiness are you going to find a vein? No you're not, so you better break the chain. I'm giving up on unhappiness, you ought to do the same Out with the old dead unhappiness are you going to cut your throat? No you're not, so you're tearing up that note from the doctor, you're tearing up that note

about

Homeowner image

Homeowner Birmingham, UK

Homeowner is Sean Murray and other problems. Hailing from Birmingham, UK, the band writes catchy choruses (but hates to admit it), and lyrics that celebrate the mundane. Homeowner’s music brings to mind the floppy, erudite fringe of 80s and 90s indie, but filtered through a downtrodden, distinctly Brummie worldview
