Fixie 4 2 03:27
Let’s make love on a fixie We can make it a fixie for two D’you want to make love on a fixie? I want to make love on a fixie with you All the hipsters in the park fornicating in the dark Look at them go, and go, and go All the hipsters in the park fornicating in the dark D'you like cream in your coffee? Pick a single source for the loving you’ll get I want to do things to you Don’t you worry - no one’s done them yet So if you’re in between organic greens Or a tofu sandwich that’s awfully lean If you wear a woolen beanie while you’re riding through An electric moped yakazoo If you think san serif is the way to go When you’re reading on the road If you partially said yes to any of the above Strip down to your skinnies for some hipster love What’s that rustling in the bushes? Could it be? Could it be?

Little girl I love you more than Jesus I love you more than Jesus More than Jesus loves you Little girl I need you than Jesus I need you more than Jesus More than Jesus needs you Wham bam, spick and span You’re so young and pure I got what you need I can be your cure You read that holy book Like it’s the gospel truth Come on, take my hand Maximise your youth Someone should tell you That there’s more to life More to hatching kids And being a faithful wife Come on, little girl Take a look around Max on spirituality When we’re going down I know you need more Than the dogma and the bores Than the sermons and the feats Than the preachers who don’t teach I can give you more More than you will ever learn Take my hand, you will not burn Take my hand, you will not burn

There’s a place where the lights are brighter Where it’s warm and it never fades It’s a place where the colours are lighter Where all your dreams won’t slip away Aubrey Take me to Aubrey Plaza Aubrey Take me to Aubrey Plaza It’s a place where the folks are forgiving Where you can leave your past behind It’s a world where life is for living On your own terms, on your own time Come into my world And you’ll find that the sun shines a familiar face That the moon goes through sleepless nights for your one embrace That the stars are whispering stories of what could be And that is you and me Without the sun There would be no earth And without you in my life No life would be worth living No stars to orbit my dreams No heat to sustain my desire Without light I will be lost Without you I will not exist I honour you with reverence I honour you with awe My only obsession My definitive factor Is you

Voices 03:51
You found your voice again today You were afraid, scared and on your own You found the fire to fight the brave They could tear down your heart of stone But I know, baby if you’re ready to go You won’t leave me out there in the cold Your words will make things right What do you say? Are we happy as we think we could be? Or do we need to be set free? He found his voice again today He tried his best to twist history No stone unturned could change his fate Upon his cage, they did not find a key

Out Of Time 04:11
Baby, the sky has been falling Lately the saints have been calling You want to believe in another side You’re looking over your shoulder Somebody should’ve told you You’ve got nothing left but pride You say you can’t take it anymore You say you can’t take it anymore Where you’re gonna go when the tables turn? Where’re you gonna hide when they want you burnt? Where’re you gonna run when it’s off the triple play? Who’re you gonna be on the other side? Where’re you gonna go when they take your pride? Where’re you gonna hide when they make you cross that line? Yeah, you’re running out of time Calamity needs no mention Baby, just live through the tension You’ve got nothing left to hide

about

The Propositions Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Formed in 2016, and made up of stalwarts from Malaysia’s indie music enclave, The Propositions! is a band that refuses to hit the ground at any pace other than full speed.

It’s surf-rock, rockabilly, polite punk, alt-rock, Malaysiana and folk rolled into one. 

Call it whatever you want.

You are, after all, a Proposition too.
