The hidden track on Sam Sparro’s album, Still Hungry, is fucking brilliant.

Update: Here are thr lyrics, transcribed by me:

Sam Sparro - Still Hungry

 

Last night a songbird sitting outside my window,

He sang a song for me

Last night all the stars in the sky they twinkled so brightly

It really was a sight to see

 

Today I spent two hundred and fifty dollars

Two hundred and fifty dollars on a pair of jeans

They really looked nice on me

 

But that means, (ooh) that for the next two weeks 

I’m gonna be scrounging, I never save my money, you see

I finished all the food on my plate, I’m still hungry

And I enjoyed all the food that I ate, (ooh) but I’m still hungry

 

I’ve lived a relatively full life

You should’ve seen some of the things I’ve seen

I’ve lived around the world, 

Been a lot of places, I really am lucky, I am really lucky, 

But sometimes I just can’t take it, I just can’t take it, (noo), I feel so lonely, 

I’m not ungrateful, I just want more from the life I lead

Oh won’t you give it to me, (ooh)

 

I’ve finished all the food on my plate

But I’m still hungry, still hungry

And I enjoyed all the food that I ate

But I’m still hungry, I’m still hungry

But I enjoyed all the food that I ate

And believe me when I say it tasted great

But I’m still hungry

 

I finished all the food on the plate 

And I enjoyed it, yes it really tastes great, 

But I’m still hungry, I’m still hungry,

I’m still hungry

I’m still hungry

I’m still hungry
