  Verse 1

  Old shears hang there rusting slow Nobody's touched that peg in months But you, you're never letting go You turn the plainest days to stunts

  Pre-chorus

  You take whatever's lying round And turn it into something loud So light the room, don't hold it down

  Chorus

  Lucy, this whole place is yours tonight Nobody dances quite like Lucy Every candle's burning brighter, right Feels like the whole world's gone a bit goosey

  Verse 2

  That bag of compost by the door Been sitting there since who knows when But you don't let dust settle on the floor You drag the whole room out again

  Bridge

  Some folks just fade into the wall You never learned to do that at all We're glad you're loud, we're glad you're here

  Chorus

  Lucy, this whole place is yours tonight Nobody dances quite like Lucy Every candle's burning brighter, right Feels like the whole world's gone a bit goosey

  Outro

  Let the shears rust on that old peg We're not slowing down for you tonight

  Verse 1

  Brown paper bags on the counter Carrots stacked up neat and true Somebody set the brass scales tipping And still it comes back round to you

  Chorus

  Lucy, the whole room's turning Every candle lit for you Nobody weighs like you weigh with us Lucy, heavier than we knew

  Verse 2

  Loose change rattling in the till Morning market coming through We keep finding reasons to stop here Every single one of them's you

  Pre-chorus

  Something in the way you find us Tips the balance, pulls us near So light the candles, let it show now

  Chorus

  Lucy, the whole room's turning Every candle lit for you Nobody weighs like you weigh with us Lucy, heavier than we knew

  Bridge

  Take the scales and take the measure Nothing balances like you We don't need the brass to tell us We already knew it's true

  Chorus

  Lucy, the whole room's turning Every candle lit for you Nobody weighs like you weigh with us Lucy, heavier than we knew

  Outro

  Carrots settle back to stillness But we're still stacked up here for you

  Verse 1

  Baskets stacked up wet and blue Powder dust on every shoe Some folks wait for something grand But you make ordinary land

  Pre-chorus

  Every plain old Tuesday scene Turns to something bright and keen Soon as you walk into it

  Chorus

  Lucy, light the whole place up Nothing here is ever enough Sing it loud so the whole street knows Happy birthday, here we go

  Verse 2

  Coins rattling in your palm Spin cycle like a battle drum You hum along and start the noise Turn the dull room into joys

  Pre-chorus

  Every plain old Tuesday scene Turns to something bright and keen Soon as you walk into it

  Chorus

  Lucy, light the whole place up Nothing here is ever enough Sing it loud so the whole street knows Happy birthday, here we go

  Bridge

  We don't need a fancy stage Just your name to start the rage Clap it out and stamp the floor This is what we're cheering for

  Chorus

  Lucy, light the whole place up Nothing here is ever enough Sing it loud so the whole street knows Happy birthday, here we go

  Outro

  Wet blue baskets, one more year Same old shelf but you are here
