Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Trying to make the shapes
You're dying to see
Always kept it tidy
Never really known the
Right shape to be
[Chorus]
It goes, if you let it
It's okay to regret it
I'm on your side
No need to be ready
It's okay if it's messy
I'm on your side
[Verse 2]
Sometimes, I dream of driving
And double yellow lining
And hitting 71 down the M25
Ignoring that noisy backseat driver
[Chorus]
And it goes, you can let it
It's okay to regret it
I'm on your side
No need to be ready
It's okay if it's messy
I'm on your side
[Outro]
It's a little bit
Messy
It's a little bit
Messy
Little, little
I'm a little bit
Messy
I'm a little bit
Messy
[Outro]
I'm a little bit
