My eyes are stuck I smell you, King Lear Oh, you know all the boys You pioneer My eyes are stuck I smell you, King Lear Oh, you know all the boys You pioneer My eyes are stuck Your fingernails Familiar killer whale You speak like soda This pill hill You’re puzzle–stuck On the breeze You’re falling out again What I see is me… You’re fucking crazy Freaking amaze me Just don’t chase me You’re fucking crazy Oh, don’t you miss it Your eyes are bleach Your voice is muffled And you just about missed it My eyes are stuck I smell you, King Lear Oh, you know all the boys and kids You pioneer You’re fucking crazy Freaking amaze me Just don’t chase me You’re fucking crazy Shit You’re fucking crazy Freaking amaze me Just don’t chase me You’re fucking crazy Shit My eyes are stuck

What a time and what a feeling Craving more direction and meaning Outside it’s repeating Is this really a bona fide feeling With a status of being roughed up You tell me things ‘bout love I’m not sure of Is this what tradition means So what’s a girl to do with me It’s hard to love what I can’t touch So pull the speakers from the glass Craving something I can’t love And I think that we both knew It can happen to me, it can happen to you You nearly broke my mind But I keep thinking ‘bout it all the time When you shine I Don’t believe it It doesn’t mean a thing I’m seeing Sweet nothings in this accent But there are no kind words in this language Wanted love at an empty occasion And now you’re heard all across the nation Inside it’s repeating This is not believing And I think that we both knew It can happen to me, it can happen to you You nearly broke my mind But I keep thinking ‘bout it all the time It’s hard to love what I can’t touch So drown the speakers in the glass I’m craving something I can’t love And I think that we both knew It can happen to me, it can happen to you You nearly broke my mind But I keep thinking ‘bout it all the time And I think that we both knew It can happen to me, it can happen to you And I nearly broke my mind But I keep thinking ‘bout it all the time

I want this to end while I’m high Shootings are covered on the news all the time So many of you give the eye But some guys get drunk from the sound I imply I can hardly believe the bad timing But words to live by and suits to die in Lawless get killed so bye–bye But if there are so many people Why doesn’t it fall from the sky What about you? So, what about you? To cash in on Everything that you’ll ever do This city’s rough but how ‘bout you You cash in on Everything that you’ll ever do This city’s rough but so are you Your drugged eyes cut my cheeks like a paper cut Closer than ever, feel your breath in my paper cup Lawless get killed oh, so bye–bye But if there are so many people Why doesn’t it fall from the sky What about you? But what about you? To cash in on Everything that you’ll ever do This city’s rough but how ‘bout you You cash in on Everything that you’ll ever do This city’s rough but so are you You cash in on To cash in on You cash in on everything that you’ll ever do

Alex Sender 03:37
Face, like a puppet from your sister You bite your lips like Jackie Around the place where all the town boys made a mistake (‘stake) You cover up their loose laces A billboard hanging around your chest As advertised in the tour guide of last night Oh, I’m going back to 03 I’ve never been fucked up like this Way, you’re coming to a mistake Your head has changed like a puppet must say A bit of Alexander got you changing your game So, what did you do last night The pictures of the blue drinks And the whistles of your own stink What did you do last night The pictures, your wrecked trousers And it only lasts for hours Reason I came To prove to you I thought a million things Reason I came To prove to you I thought a million things The way, oh That I think about you all day I want a nice ring, I want a nice house All my little parts got you merely in doubt You’re crazy today Oh I’m going back to 03 I’ve never been fucked up like this Way, just like your sister And the calmness is gone now Just wait, you’re coming to a mistake Your head has changed like a puppet must say A bit of Alexander got you changing your game So, what did you do last night The pictures of the blue drinks And the whistles of your own stink Reason I came To prove to you I thought a million things Reason I came To prove to you I thought a million things Oh, I thought a million things Oh, I thought a million A million, million things Oh, I thought a million things

It’s cool A bad decision But I’m not really sure what’s friction Oh, I mean I’m spinning You could mark the spot where I fail It’s hard This conflicting image But I like it when boys stay British Knock my teeth out, should’ve gone mad It’s panic from Dublin Panic attack I’m serious I’m not winning I tried to cry at the beginning Make sure this Brit is singing I’m never seeing double again Shake it off I really wanna turn around Blow my face up, really, really make it loud I’m done but I really, really, really want to Shake it off and really give me more to swallow Lose my head, so I could be the one you follow I'm done but I really, really, really want you I want you I’m serious I’m not winning I tried to cry at the beginning I’m sure, I’m sure It’s cool Pull the trigger You’re making God seem bigger You could start new and turn into a Belgian But I’m having so many questions Shake it off I really wanna turn around Blow my face up, really, really make it loud I’m done but I really, really, really want to Shake it off and really give me more to swallow Lose my head, so I could be the one you follow I'm done but I really, really, really, want you I want you Oh, I’m serious I’m not winning I tried to cry at the beginning It’s cool Pull the trigger You’re making God seem bigger now

Come Around 04:44
Lovers straight down from Hell I’m not home and my neighbors won’t tell The blue boys won’t even see It scattered in broken dreams His tale will never tell Her love will never sell You’re drowning in all you found I’m not a ghost, so Come around Come around Come around Come around You are perfect, in repair You know I’m not a ghost, so come running scared I heard the shepherd who treats you the best Oh, shake a man His tale will never tell Her love will never sell You’re drowning in all you found I’m not a ghost, so please Come around Come around Come around Come around Shake a man and all you find is dust Shake a man and all your love I forgot Shake a man, shake a man Shake a man and all you find is dust Shake a man and all your love I forgot Shake a man, shake a man Come on Shake a man and all you’ll find is dust Shake a man and all your love I forgot Shake a man, come on Shake a man, shake me Shake a man, come on please Shake a man Shake me Shake me Shake a man

Sitter 02:59
In the line of horror She keeps her spot at the window for now Beyond this big square She reached, but I’m a sucker And the so bored motherfuckers They’re all in place, but she’s not there She reached to me with orange hair Your passive state is a big screw up But you don’t want to be a sitter Through your poor–looking glass You don’t want to be an outfield, Scofield In the boring class But you don’t want to be a sitter In your poor–looking dress You don’t want to be an outfield, Scofield In the boring class In the boring class Darling, we’ve got to let you see now Try to be cool, what are you saying And your vocals are amazing Beyond this big square The boredom in the riches And truncheon superstition But you don’t want to be a sitter Through your poor–looking glass You don’t want to be an outfield, Scofield In the boring class But you don’t want to be a sitter In your poor–looking dress You don’t want to be an outfield, Scofield In the boring class Well, you don’t want to be a sitter Through your poor–looking glass You don’t want to be an outfield, Scofield In the boring class In the boring class You don’t want to be a sitter A sitter, a sitter, a sitter In the boring class

How It Feels 03:01
God made me a good deal It’s something you’d appreciate But I don’t mind getting lucky ‘cause I Don’t make any mistakes Why should I look at such a safe face He spins, spins and throws up words If He’s the only God in this world Tell me what was happening in 2020, ‘19 and ‘17 Write it on your LC type machine One of your French specialties But I know how it feels Too real to hurt you, but yet it heals And I know how it feels Without my doubt it doesn’t feel real And I know how it feels Are you just painting something Or was it just something to mess with No need to calm down My body’s waiting I should just face it, my persona And I know how it feels Too real to hurt you, but yet it heals And I know how it feels Without my doubt, it doesn’t feel real And I know how it feels How it feels And I know how it feels He gets home, he clicks his high heels I’m asking where the boys are I’m asking where the boys are How am I getting lucky so far I’m asking where the boys are So, how do you do? So, how do you do? So, how do you do? So, how do you do? So, how do you do man?

To Mirror 06:02
When it’s quiet you just remind me of All the good books hanging from your lips When you talk about this charming man It’s like the labels switched It’s not me I just smile and wave politely Until you turn around Caught a smile from this taxicab, this taxi driver Saying she’s not coming down All I can do now seems not enough When every time I love, feels like a stranger’s touch Oh, I’m sick of being hard to choose But what a way to cheer when you do lose It is quite a laugh when brows are flashed And texts are sent about me So, please, please let me get what I want Let me get what I want Yeah, I got my face again I hope you understand You’re nowhere to be seen Yeah, I got my face again I hope you understand You’re nowhere to be seen I got my face again I hope you understand You’re nowhere to be seen Yeah, I got my face again I hope you understand You’re nowhere to be seen

about

Queen's Pleasure Amsterdam, Netherlands

Queen’s Pleasure is an impertinent semi-psychedelic classic four piece
garagerock outfit, based in Amsterdam. Driven by a brutal and poetic desire for
love, Queen’s Pleasure sounds like a mix of Dandy Warhols and Blur, with the
power of The Ramones and the melancholy of The Smiths. A ‘Wall of sound’
delivered with an energy you can expect from a group in their late teens.
