Chair Full of Clothes
For our first gloriously messy flat
Press play to hear this song.
Why this song was made
This housewarming song honours a flatmate's bedroom chair, which has never been available for sitting. Two friends turn their shared mess into a joyful disco confession.
Read the lyrics
[Verse 1]
We bought a stylish bedroom chair to make the place feel grown,
A tasteful little monument to finally having home.
By Tuesday it was wearing all the outfits that we'd tried,
By Friday there were rumours of a small community inside.
[Chorus]
Chair full of clothes, you're the star of the room,
A mountain of decisions and a jumper in full bloom.
Too clean for the basket, too mysterious for drawers,
We came here for a fresh start; now we're dancing round yours.
[Verse 2]
Your mother came to visit, asked if she could have a seat,
We offered her the kitchen stool and something nice to eat.
She pointed at the mountain with a quiet knowing grin,
Said she'd got one back at home and hers had relatives within.
[Bridge]
Someday we'll have matching towels and cupboards with a system,
We'll label little storage tubs and actually use them.
Tonight the rent is paid, there's pasta bubbling on the stove,
And everything we haven't sorted feels a little bit like love.
[Chorus]
Chair full of clothes, you're the star of the room,
A mountain of decisions and a jumper in full bloom.
Too clean for the basket, too mysterious for drawers,
We came here for a fresh start; now we're dancing round yours.
