I think someone is always discovering music... I just started my deep dive into Johnny Flynn's talents, previously unknown to me, as he flourished during my child-raising days, when I had no time for discovery

[Verse 1]
Rob lived in a box by the rails
Only thing he knew is you don't fail
When you live in a box by the rails
Don't comb your hair, don't comb your tail
[Chorus]
Sweep my mess away
Leave my body, leave my bones
Leave me whole and leave my soul
Leave me nothing I don't need at all
Nothing I don't need at all
[Verse 2]
He ate from the bins, in the park
Stayed out with the rats after dark
Never left a trail, never made his mark
When he ate with the rats after dark
[Chorus]
Sweep my mess away
Leave my body, leave my bones
Leave me whole and leave my soul
Leave me nothing I don't need at all
Nothing I don't need at all
[Verse 3]
Calling on his friends never made him sad
Didn't want the things he never had
It only made them feel so sad
For having the things he never had
[Chorus]
Sweep my mess away
Leave my body, leave my bones
Leave me whole and leave my soul
Leave me nothing I don't need at all
Nothing I don't need at all
[Verse 4]
If you stay in that box overnight
And don't get out when it gets light
There's not much lost of the secret life
That's never done wrong and it's never done right
Now some more flowers grow
The corn gets eaten by a few more crows
And an old man's box is full of bones
Won't see his footprints in the snow
[Chorus]
Sweep my mess away
Leave my body, leave my bones
Leave me whole and leave my soul
Leave me nothing I don't need at all
Nothing I don't need at all
Sweep my mess away
Leave my body, leave my bones
Leave me whole and leave my soul
Leave me nothing I don't need at all
Nothing I don't need at all

somewhere in south america - apologies
si ya te amaba ahora te amo más JF
Pur bijou!
How can I see JF live?
Sadly he doesn’t tour much...not since Sillion came out. 2018 maybe was last US tour?
Since he just released a new album, maybe a chance he'll do some gigs next year?
