A strikingly percussive and piano-led, stylishly syncopated, full-on floral-and-dirt metaphorical new single by the Mercury-winning London indie rock band of singer Ellie Rowsell, guitarist Joff Oddie and co, heralding their forthcoming fourth album, The Clearing, out on 29 August via Columbia Records/ RCA.

Do I have to make you sit on your hands?
Fucking baby, baby man
Do you want me to show you who I am?
See this fire in my eyes, boy?
That's your flash in the pan
Look at me trying to play it hard
My despair masked by a flawed facade
Look at me trying to play it hard
I'm so sick and tired of trying to play it hard
But I'll bloom, baby, bloom
Watch me, yeah, you'll see just what I'm worth
Yes, I'm blue, baby, blue
Every flower needs to neighbour with the dirt
Uh, I'm mad!
I start to think it's me who's been bad
But I'm no bottle in a paper bag
I just am who I am
(One, two, three, come on)
I know the dark things come out in the night
(Play it hard, play it, play it, play it hard)
(Play it, play it hard, play it, play it, play it hard)
But how many things in one go can you put on the line?
Look at me trying to play it hard
I'm so sick and tired of trying to play it hard
But I'll bloom, baby, bloom
Watch me, yeah, you'll see just what I'm worth
Yes, I'm blue, baby, blue
Every flowеr needs to neighbor with the dirt
And if you knew mе
You'd know that it would hurt
Feel like I won't flower in spoiled earth
But I'll bloom, baby, bloom
Watch me, yeah, you'll see just what I'm worth
Yes, I'm blue, baby, blue
Every flower needs to neighbor with the dirt
Yes, I'll bloom, baby, bloom
Watch me, yeah, you'll see just what I'm worth
Oh, just breathe, baby, breathe
Every flower needs to grow up by the weeds
