about

I (Tim) wrote this song in Vienna, Austria in my kitchen in 2004 after a three day song explosion. I wanted to make a catchy pop song and had a little Trip Shakespere in mind.

lyrics

Brittle Star
A G
Whoo ooh ooh who oh
D
You nearly got it right now
A
Fell into her rabbit hole
G D
Asked me to sleep over
A
Let me feel her guess you know
G D
I let it take me over

Whoo ooh ooh who oh
You nearly got it right now

Flew in through my kitchy tart
She can hear my heart beat
Off the map and on the floor
Her Rikki Tikki Tavi’s gonna ba ba ba ba bite me

F Am C7 F Fsus
F Am C7 F
With my one hand open and the other closed I’ll never keep it
You're the latest thing I kind of like the stuff ba ba believe it.
F Fmaj7
Guess you are you are
F Fmaj7
Guess you are you are
Amaj7 to A7
My brittle star
Star

Let me scratch your itching heart
Let me taste your laughter
I'll et you in my no girls fort
You can stay forever ever after

With my one hand open and the other closed I’ll never keep it
With your eight arms open you're my life boat ba ba believe it.
Guess you are you are
Guess you are you are
My brittle star
C7 F
Made of lightening, passion and rope
Amaj7 A7
My brittle star
C7 F
Need a light to pick out the hope
Fm
I’ll laugh at your jokes
A
My brittle star
C7 F
Made of lightening, passion and rope
Amaj7 A7
My brittle star
C7 F
Need a light to pick out the hope
Fm
I’ll laugh at your jokes

Doo doo doo
You nearly got it right now.
I think you got it right now.
I know you got it right now.
I'm sure you got it right now.
