No Joke
Intro
It’s no joke.
Verse 1
Shaking while I walk ‘cos I’m thinking of him
No-one ever told me (it) was gonna feel this way.
Do ya think he’ll stay? Is it all a mistake?
Oh oh oh oh - late for my date
Pr: What’s this warm and fluffy feeling?
Am I red? Are all heads turning?
His eyes make me weak at the knees
And I’m falling Into candyfloss. It’s no joke
Chorus
No joke! I t-t-tremble while my n-knees shake
It’s no joke! still be there even if I’m late
Oh Oh oh - oh oh oh I see him waiting
It’s n-n-n-n-n-n-no joke
No joke! I t-t-tremble while my n-knees shake
It’s no joke! still be there even if I’m late
Oh Oh oh - oh oh oh (he’s) still there waiting
It’s n-n-n-n-n-n-no joke
Verse 2
Falling in the café, in too much of a hurry
Straighten out my clothes, he’s sitting right over there
he get’s off his chair, he so debonair
Oh oh oh oh (he) smiles at me, I swear
Pre refrain: He helps me up and I don’t feel embarrassed
I’m not flushed and I don’t care who looks my way
His eyes make me weak at the knees
And I’m falling Into candyfloss. It’s no joke
Chorus
Bridge: It’s no joke. N-n-n-n-n-no joke
Yeah yeah yeah, we’ve struggled for oh so long
To find that someone
A love dysfunction
We’ve seen the light
Chorus

Louis Lingg and the Bombs Paris, France
Louis Lingg and the Bombs are goddamn punk-rock-garage-electro-big beat-pop-anarcho saviours of the 2 and half minute pop
song. The bombs they throw are musical, they come from Paris (they could only come from Paris!) and they'll grab you and demand your instant attention.
Their sound is a mix of ultra-political anarchic punk rock and fizzing children's nursery rhyme riot-pop. Formed in 2006!!!!
