Lenka has spent much of her time on this earth making music to soothe her own heart and hopefully yours. Her early career as an actress spiked everything with a sense of drama.

Career highs saw her tour the world extensively and perform on live TV around the globe. Motherhood has brought her back to the Australian countryside, where she now resides and continues to make music. After releasing six albums, through Epic Records and her own label Skipalong Records, Lenka is focusing on creating music and releasing song by song. Lenka’s songs have been featured in many global film and TV placements such as Moneyball, Ugly Betty, Grey’s Anatomy, Old Navy, Windows and Coke, to name a few. Her work on Decoder Ring’s Somersault soundtrack won the AFI for best song from a film.

LYRICS

So tired of feeling blue
Such a heavy weight on you
So shake it off and make your way to somewhere different, to somewhere different
Oh no, now you're leaving me oh what will you do?
All alone in the big bad world but i'm not worried, no...
'Cause you're gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby, you're gonna revel in hating what's going on
And you're like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come, no harm will come if you just skip along.

Acting oblivious
Comes natural to us
Keep smiling knowing all the while the world will fall apart, the world will fall apart

Wouldn't it be lovely to be home, home
Safe and sound with no one round to bring us down
but that's so far away...
