from The Offtopics Live At Studio 5 by The Offtopics

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    A very cute cardboard sleeve with an adorable design by Rebecca L Stewart inspired by re-imagining the band as pre-loved teddy bears.

    These five tracks were recorded live at 3PBS FM's infamous Studio 5 during The Offtopics "Back on the Zine" campaign. The band were invited into the studio by legendary Melbourne Soul DJ Vince Peach and played the following songs:

    1. Kiss Me It's For Science
    2. Stepping Out
    3. A Man Needs Coolin'
    4. Funky Grandma
    5. Sunrise in Richmond

    Because this was all done live at the radio station there are some quirks of performance which we sincerely hope you'll enjoy!

    Linc Yow Yeh: Drums and Vocals
    Tim Webb: Bass
    Mark Bretherton: Keyboard and Vocals
    Omid Shayan: Saxophone

lyrics

KISS ME – IT’S FOR SCIENCE

Gm7 C7 Eb7 D7
Do you have a spirit of enquiry?
Gm7 C7 Eb7 D7
Are you curious about the world?
Gm7 C7 Eb7 D7
I can tell there’s a mind that’s likely
Gm7 C7 Eb7 D7
To get all of the facts unfurled.

Can we agree on a methodology?
Can we agree on the evidence base?
It’s just a query about biology
So lean in closer to my face

Eb7x2 Eb7x2
And Kiss me. Kiss me. Kiss me – it’s for science!

How much pressure on the lip is needed?
What’s the temperature of ecstasy?
Test my thesis and get it completed
This exegesis is bound to please.

And Kiss me. Kiss me. Kiss me – it’s for science!

Yes I have the strictest control group
I wanna rule out all placebo effects
I assure you that it’s the whole truth
When I say this ain’t just about sex.

Eb7x2 Eb7x2 Eb7x2
So Kiss me. Kiss me. Kiss me.

Gm7 Bb
Budget cuts at the C.S.I.R.O Mean I
C Eb
Input results with a B yes I-R-O
Gm7 Bb
Researching figures all day on my feet
C D (D C Bb G F G)
Wanna take you home and put you in my spreadsheet.

Eb7x2 Eb7x2 Eb7x2
So Kiss me. Kiss me. Kiss me.
So Kiss me. Kiss me. Kiss me.
So Kiss me. Kiss me. Kiss me.
Eb7 D7 C7 Gm7
Ki-i-iss me – it’s for science!
