about

‘Sedation’ | 'Skinning Apples' is the new double single from Leeds born artist Clare Kelly. 'Sedation’ is an amusing and devastatingly honest account of a romance while living abroad. Each verse unfolds another chapter of captivating narrative about a charming Irish headphone thief waiting down the pub for his Aussie tax rebate.

lyrics

Spilt my morning beer in my underwear
Full of you and how you moved
I climbed out your bathroom window In a backwards crab
I never knew I could bend like that

Learnt about my star sign
Apparently I want to mother you and smother you at the same time every night

I need sedation to relieve my imagination

Spread my morning moan under your duvet cold, all alone you’d left for work
Don’t want to brush my teeth, no
My mouth is filled with your stale ash and who knows when you could be coming back

I like the way you say my name
I like the way you are tempted by my neck
I can see you want to grab that

I need sedation to relieve my imagination

Bought three bags of coke, you lost your job and home, no memory of how the party went
and now my morning moan is in my bed alone, don’t really notice when you’re not there

Forever, forever, forever

So give my headphones back you stupid Irish twat, did you pawn them with your phone?
You’re waiting for your cashback sat in a pub alone, knocking back for seven hours flat

I need sedation to relieve my imagination

I climbed out your bathroom window, I almost broke my back
So, cheers for that
You sold me down the river just to quench your thirst
You are the most unbelievable I have ever known

I need sedation to relieve my imagination
