90%-finished teaser version for my upcoming EP, which will hopefully be out soonish

lyrics

It was a magical time of no responsibilities
Nothing to do but skateboard and watch TV
School was over but uni hadn't started
And all I had to think about was the next party
And I remember the days getting drunk by the ocean
Getting caught up in the waves of summers gentle motion
Haziest nights greeting foggiest mornings
After good vibes, good times good friends and good stories

And we left the party we were both too drunk to drive
And as she drove us round the back streets I don't know how we survived
But it wasn't our car anyway, how could we be so dumb
Well we were young
We were bulletproof
And we were liquored up
We were liquored up

Well I dropped out of Uni cause it got too hard
When all you wanna do is drop in at the skate park
Hang out at the club ply pool with my friends
Nothing to do so we started a band and

Were not the greatest but we sure had some good times
So here's to rock n roll and alcohol, and feeling alive
And we could call in sick for work the next day, show up a little drunk
Cause we were young
We were bulletproof
And we were having fun
We were having fun

It was a magical time of no responsibility
Now there's less time for skateboards and partying
I might grow up but fun it won't end
There's still plenty of good times with all of my friends

I rarely party now and I try not to be so dumb
Because I know that I'm not bulletproof
But I still drink too much
And I look through the haze to halcyon days
I got no regrets about
those nights I don't remember
And the nights I wont forget
I won't forget

about

Uku-Paley Sydney, Australia

Sometimes when your band doesn't do a whole lot, people start an acoustic side project.

Sometimes they can't play guitar or sing

So they play ukulele and sing out of tune instead. That's what Uku-Paley does anyways.
