Declan McKenna breaks down Daniel, You're Still A Child | Behind The Lyrics | Radio X
Музыка
Speaking with Radio X's George Godfrey, Declan McKenna breaks down his track Daniel, You're Still A Child, taken from his forthcoming album Zeroes.
Daniel, You're Still A Child lyrics:
Daniel, you did it, you made me cry
You spent ten days in bed when I asked you why
And requested my whereabouts through tweets
Darling, why do you bury yourself in sheets?
Well, I told you
There's unrest in the House of Lords
Written on sandwich boards
Outside the shop where they sell your favorite drink
So what d'you think you're doing telling people lies?
The hope's going like Christmas pies
But it's never gonna stop you turning pink
Daniel, you know it, you wanted to
Find a place on your own like you always do
I'd bear in mind
Daniel, you're still a child
Daniel's gone running, the trail's gone cold
You've been acting quite strangely, since ten years old
And when you were eleven they said
"You ought to pray to high heaven you don't get caught"
Well Daniel, don't worry, you won't be missed
You'll spend ten years in prison to pay for this
Ah, is it all worthwhile?
Daniel, you're still a child
You got a death wish, child
Four cans of pesticide to drink
4:30 Western Time
The boy's been arrested, why d'you think?
Daniel, you're still a child
Daniel, you're still a child
What is wrong with Daniel, he's no fun
You just wait 'til Daniel hurts someone
Daniel, you're a weirdo, what the hell?
You just wait 'til Daniel hurts himself

True. You’re right to love him. He's so smart and talented...
Daniel is just a name Declan thought of to give Be an Astronaut(which is beautiful) a more personal touch, so the real question is WHO IS EMILY?

I saw that there where lyrics for “Emily” on genius but I can’t find a recording anywhere! Have you heard it?

@@Smilliztho No I haven't, for some reason the lyrics to Emily despite it being an unreleased song are already up. However Isabel Torres(guitarist) has been hinting that we may get another song released before the album drops so I think it might be Emily. But yeah it hasn't been released yet.
Huge fan of his mullet!
the one dislike is from the boys who wait outside your house who’ve got your number and are not afraid to use it

I hope he comes to America eventually. I’d be the first there to buy tickets

Anybody here after the Daniel Khalif story? The lyrics eerily predicted the whole scenario "Daniels gone running, the trails gone cold, youve been acting quite strangely since 10 years old"
Cor blimey what a mullet!
Can’t wait to hear the song live next year!
Here as a Daniel and a fan
Amazing track
I love you💖
ahh I love Declan !! I can’t wait for the album
the dislike is definitely from the dude who stole the setlist lol
0:32 *particular*
I thought the song was about the voting age
