Everything I know is you 
Let me tell you what we're listening to 
I'm a gentle soul I'm sure 
But on the stereo I'm a dictator 
Do you even have a tape machine? 
To facilitate my plastic dreams 
All the things that I have seen, from 
Morrissey to John Coltrane AHHH!... 
Cinematic Orchestra, De La Soul the Shangri-La's 
An adolescent love letter, a sparkling jewel of manual labour 

I'll make you a mixtape that's a blueprint of my soul 
It may sound grand but babe it's all you need to know 
I'll make you a mixtape that will charm you into bed 
It details everything that's running round my head 

That's running round my head 

Fondling, record and play 
Without you it's records night and day 
This ain't no disc of MP3's 
This one' handmade, fashioned lovingly 

Plant the rythm in your bones 
You're the only angel in headphones 
My love can paint a million tones 
From Nine Inch Nails to Louis Armstrong 
So resurrect your stereo 
And the swathrs of melodies will flow 
Thelonious, Maurizio 
I tell you babe it will make my heart glow 

I'll make you mixtape that's a blueprint of my soul 
It may sound grand but babe it's all you need to know 
I'll make you a mixtape that will charm you into bed 
It details everything that's running round my head
