Under the Green Awning
Style: Motown soul

[Verse 1]
Market's loud, the sun is high
Colours rolling, sweet and round
You walk through like you own the day
Best thing that this town has found

[Chorus]
Alexander, light the candles now
Nobody shines quite like you can
Every year you get more golden
Alexander, our favourite man

[Verse 2]
Melons rolling, green and gold
Bumping soft beneath the shade
That's how my heart feels around you
Something warm that will not fade

[Pre-chorus]
Hands are clapping, count them down
Somebody grab the cake and sing
We been waiting on this moment

[Chorus]
Alexander, light the candles now
Nobody shines quite like you can
Every year you get more golden
Alexander, our favourite man

[Bridge]
However far you roam, you land here
Right where the love is thick and true
This whole room came for one reason
Just to say we're glad it's you

[Chorus]
Alexander, light the candles now
Nobody shines quite like you can
Every year you get more golden
Alexander, our favourite man

[Outro]
Sun goes down beyond the awning
Still you're the sweetest thing we know
