Karl from Lark sez: "You could add anything by Cohen or Dylan for their influence
although musically not that direct

As for why, if you've heard us and heard these songs you'd know why.
from nonsensical rhyming dadist nonsense to heartfelt love songs
and now even including a couple of good time numbers, well for us
anyway."
