About this album
I can't believe I spent 3 years recording this album (very inconsistently!).
It's been the strangest time - this was originally going to be an album about daydreaming and feeling alone while stuck in my house during lockdown, but as time progressed I learnt more about myself and started to actually understand these feelings. While themes of daydreaming are still ever present throughout, I eventually realised quite late into the process that I'm actually just singing about autism, ADHD, and gender dysphoria. That's right, I've got the full wombo combo, and maybe I'll speak about it more one day in the future.
Tracks 8, 9, and 10 are more lighthearted fun, and have much less to do with the overarching theme, but they're songs I'm still really proud of and would love for you to hear. Fun fact, back in 2018 on a livestream I once said I'd eventually make a proper song about cats, and here we finally are!
All lyrics, instruments, vocals, production by TomboFry (now moonfloof).
I had some help and inspiration with the lyrics on tracks 8-11, from someone who goes by Papaya. He didn't want any credit but he's a wonderful person and I couldn't just not!

Act like you know what you are saying
While secretly inside you are praying
That no one will notice you've got halitosis
And don't know what you are conveying
If anyone asks you, just change the subject
Look to the side and throw out a deflect
Will anyone notice you've got halitosis?
And don't know what you are conveying
You haven't left your house for several days
You haven't brushed your teeth for several more
They're building up a hard and yellow glaze
Act like you know what you are saying
While secretly inside you are praying
That no one will notice you've got halitosis
And don't know what you are conveying
