Lyrics
[INTRO]
Oh Jav, where's the hammer?
Got a job to finish, oh come on!
Kicking up dust in your wake,
But can you even give me a break?
[VERSE 1]
You show up late, tools on the floor,
Every job you start just leads to one more.
Promises made, but they just fade away,
I’m still waiting for that day you’d stay.
We had plans, but you’re still in the dark,
Could’ve made magic, but you’ve lost your spark.
You say you’re a tradesman, but look at this mess,
Trying to fix things, but you’re causing the stress.
[CHORUS]
Oh Jav, if you could just finish the job,
Maybe your girlfriend wouldn't feel like a lonely sob.
Then she wouldn't be out riding the whole of Perth like ponies,
Searching for warmth in the arms of some phony.
[VERSE 2]
Tried to put up shelves, but they’re all crooked,
Thought you were the one, but I miscalculated,
Never knew a drill could sound like a joke,
Got me questioning all the promises you spoke.
I’m in this bedroom, they’re hollering loud,
While you can’t even get on with the crowd,
Sawdust flying, but your heart’s in retreat,
Building my dreams on a foundation of deceit.
[CHORUS]
Oh Jav, if you could just finish the job,
Maybe your girlfriend wouldn't feel like a lonely sob.
Then she wouldn't be out riding the whole of Perth like ponies,
Searching for warmth in the arms of some phony.
[BRIDGE]
Oh, can’t you see the wreckage you leave?
Glued together plans that are bound to deceive.
With every delay, you’re losing the thread,
The house might fall down before we’re even fed.
[VERSE 3]
You say you’re a craftsman, a king with the tools,
But lately, my heart feels like it’s playing the fool.
Can we lay the floor right, get the beams in place?
Or will I wake up one day, just a ghost in this space?
For every nail bent, there’s a dream that you’ve crushed,
And with each passing moment, my hopes get rushed.
[CHORUS]
Oh Jav, if you could just finish
