Day and Age 02:51
(These lyrics are subject to change with every performance but here are the words for this recording x) In this day and age you’re expected to be the perfect kind of woman You better have a job, do the messages, have a husband/a wife, four kids, a house and a picket fence (ha ha ha) In this day and age you’re expected to be the perfect kind of woman And you’d better do it better than anybody else can Keep your hands off my sister (keep your hands off), if you’d be so kind, mister Keep your hands off my sister, you’re so kind In this day and age you’re expected to be the perfect kind of woman You better shave your legs, wear makeup, have the right figure, lots of brains and the perfect life (ha ha ha) In this day and age you’re expected to be the perfect kind of woman Then you’d better do it better than everybody else can Keep your hands off my sister (keep your hands off), if you’d be so kind, mister Keep your hands off my sister, you’re so kind Oh, I’m sorry if I’ve been a bit down lately I know it’s just the overwhelming amount of social oppressors that are crushing me every day, you know But, ah, you know, it’s probably my own fault for just being a wee silly woman But I can’t help just getting a wee bit angry about it It just makes me, uh It just makes me feel ah, ah, ah, AHHHHHHH! Keep your hands off my sister (keep your hands off), if you’d be so kind, mister Keep your hands off my sister, you’re so kind

Mediocre Man 02:36
I'm not that bad But I'm not so great Still I get the credit while she never catches a break I never hurt anyone But I'm not quick to help Easier to be ignorant Look out for myself I just wanna be a mediocre man I want an average job I want an average life I want an average house With an exceptional wife Slack off, you can call it my aesthetic Jack off when I'm feeling pathetic UNHhhh I just wanna be a mediocre man I wanna be elevated Reinstated Never back down when I'm being debated I just wanna be mediocre, man

Gal Pals 02:50
Alanah: Braiding each other's hair Spilling secrets at slumber parties Kissing on a dare Trying on each other's clothes Gals being pals! Bev: Will you take my friendship bracelet and wear it forever, and ever, and ever? Is she your new best friend? Do you like her better than me? I'm gonna hit her in the head! Gals being pals! Bethany: Leaving your husband for a woman Getting a mortgage, and tying the knot Getting an allotment together Growing some veg Then adopting a child Gals being pals! Ciara: Growing old together Retiring to France, ah ah Leaving all your Earthly possessions To the love of your life, ah ah Sharing a plot forever with your wife For the rest of your life: "Gals being pals!"

Sell By Date 03:44
What do you mean you don't want children? And when did you make that decision? Does your other half agree? Do you have an answer that will satisfy me? Are you sure? Are you really sure? You're not getting any younger Your body clock is ticking on Don't you want a legacy? You're gonna end up old aged and lonely, sure Are you really sure? What if sometime down the line You find you've changed your mind But you'll be a long way from your prime? You're gonna regret it one day When you realise it's too late When you've passed your sell by date (Let me tell you I can't wait until I've passed my sell by date)
