lyrics

You owe me an apology
because you thought I was much more ignorant than you
Turns out that
You're the stupid one
And that your lesson in humility is only just begun

And if you thought about it, I don't know when
If you ever thought about it, maybe we could be friends
but in the meantime you can take my abuse

You blank me on the streets when
it's as if you pretend you're blind or that we've never met
You've got some grovelling to do
but grovelling's hard work and you've never worked a day in your life

And if you thought about it, I don't know when
If you ever thought about it, maybe we could be friends
but in the meantime you can take my abuse

How about it? Gonna be a man?
Or are you gonna be the thumbsucking baby I think you are
You owe me an apology
because you thought that I was much more ignorant than you

And if you thought about us, I don't know when
If you ever thought about me, maybe we could be friends
but in the meantime you can take my abuse

about

Daniel McClelland Wellington, New Zealand

New Zealand-based mad-scientist smashing together alt-pop and alt-rock with Beach Boys-inspired harmonies. Stacks of vocals abound. Hard-hitting snares. Grungy guitars. All played, arranged and produced by one person.

Daniel McClelland recommends:

The Sparrow
by Lawrence Arabia

The bass on The Sparrow is stunning. Melodic, rhythmic and uniquely 'retro'. I use this album for reference all the time. Another Kiwi classic, that gets played in New York often. Big with hipsters! Daniel McClelland

Our Place
by Adi Dick | AD90

Proof that New Zealand can produce great R&B, Stevie Wonder-style harmonies and generally infuse electronic and acoustic music seamlessly. Daniel McClelland
