SILLY GAME

It's a song about dawn to dusk and everything that comes before and after. Told by someone who’s wondering what the rules in life are as they notice how much beauty there is in the simplest things and if it isn’t just one big video game where the only opponent is themselves. We explored the infinite musical elements of the 60s and this inspired a gorgeously complex backing vocal arrangement reminiscent of the lost sounds of loading computer games. We laughed, cursed, then laughed again perfecting it. Silly Game also has a rare stylophone solo. We hope you like it.

Lyrics

I'm walking down the street

I see things differently

And everything is going on

I hear the wind's sweet change

I hear it all again

I'm seeing all that's going on

And I can't have you now

But I'm alright somehow

The birds drown out the street

Symphony just for me

I'm hearing all that's going on

Walk by the bakery

I smell it all for free

I taste the coffee hot and strong

And I can't have you now

But I'm alright somehow

Stylophone Solo

Glass shards lay on the street

They sparkle at my feet

A million colours shining strong

Life is a silly game

Not one day's quite the same

And everything is going on...

Life is a silly game
