Oh yes...
... all is possible until we have a definite version from the band.
And even then, lyrics are always open to adjustments in live performances
depending on circumstances, which I think is a good and healthy thing.

Interview from 2016...so we maybe shouldn't hold our breath for finished lyrics just yetWhen did you last write a new song?
The last time I decided definitively that a song was finished and untouchable was 2010. I’ve written a lot since then, but I’m still tinkering with them. I like to tinker. With computers, information is much more fluid now. A file is infinitely modifiable. So it’s a bit hard to decide when something’s finished. That fluidity does tempt me to be very absorbed with tinkering, which I find a very fulfilling process in itself.

Show me has been stuck in my head all week.
At the risk of ruining this song for everyone....
On the flight home from Brizzy I dozed off and was sort of singing Show Me in my head, but someone was watching a gardening thing on their Ipad in front of me and now I keep singing "Show me Monty Don."
I am sorry.

Was listening to this the other day and it occurred to me "Barbie Rock and Roll" might also refer to our new Australian member. Barbequed rock n roll, who could that be?

Show me in translation
Show me on the doll

We have love like love
We have it simulated

Show me disintegration
Show me your reality

Show me your pop music
Barbie rock and roll
