about

So many songs have been written about finding forever love with one person. I wanted to write a song that challenges this notion of monogamy equals happiness. The statistics on divorce in Australia where I grew up are an indication that our ideology around having one life partner with this being the end goal to happiness may be seen as deeply flawed. The fear of moral judgement, well documented human traits of jealousy and ownership and couples staying together out of obligation are perhaps contributing factors to people living less than fulfilled emotional lives.

lyrics

Come on baby drive me crazy
You know that’s what I want you to do
Don’t stay over just grab you clothes and
I’ll see you when I see you

As soon as you get heavy
That’s when I have to run
As soon as you say forever
Oh we’re done

Come on baby drive me crazy
You know that’s what I want you to do
Tell me there’s others and I’m just a number
That’s all I am to you

Happy just to be
Your number three
And if I’m number four
It’ll make me want you more

Come on baby drive me crazy
You know that’s what I want you to do
Don’t stay over just grab you clothes and
I’ll see you when I see you

As soon as you get heavy
I have to go away
Falling forever it’s just not me
Oh come on baby

Come on sugar
Let’s not go further
Let’s just keep it where it is
It makes me want ya I want to kiss ya
The more I cannot have it

As soon as it gets heavy
I have to walk away
I just don’t want that darling
Ah ha don’t wanna stay
In domestic, monogamous, ordinary life

I don’t want a wife
But I want you to drive me crazy
So don’t stay baby
And tell me there are others
You got my number
