Dialogue:
Big Niko (RP): Well good morning, you are tuning into Sydney’s no.1 radio station with your one and only host 'Big Niko'. Today on our show, we have a special guest with us. To many, you know him as Lochie Stevens, but for everyone else, he is Keonico. Good morning Lochie.
Lochie (L): Good morning.
RP: So Lochie, tell the listeners a little bit about yourself. What music do you make?
L: Yeah, well I like to think I make chilled electronic music.
RP: Like Flume yeah?
L: Kind of. More like say Bonobo.
RP: Bonobo hey?
L: Yeah, I think so… I mean, I’m not entirely sure. I make the music I want to make at the end of the day.
RP: Lochie, I know you want to be creative and all, but isn’t it also important you make music that’s appealing? That people other than yourself like?
L: That is true, but –
RP: Sorry to stop you there Lochie, we have a caller that’s come through. ‘Hello Sir.’
Caller A (CA): ‘Hey man. What’s up?’
RP: We are all great thanks. You have a question for Keonico.
CA: Yeah, man I listened to your last album and all. Like where are the bangers bro? No bangers at all?
L: Yeah well it wasn’t really –
RP: Sorry to cut you off again Lochie, we have another caller on the line. ‘You’re on air’
Caller B (CB): Hi there. Yeah, I was really hoping on the last album there would be some nice singing songs. Not acoustic stuff, just nice vocal songs with lovely backing instruments.
CA: Yeah man, maybe even some rap stuff. That’d be sick. Why don’t you do that?
CB: Yeah, I agree.
RP: Wow, thank you callers for that contribution. What do you think of all this? It seems people are demanding you change.
L: You know what. Why don’t I? Pass me that AUX chord would ya. Let me try being someone else for once.

Lyrics
Verse A:
Hate the competition,
everything’s race
And you you wanted a jump start,
to get you in first place
Bribing all your money away
you were counting on this
But darlin what’s your hurry
when this opportunity’s a miss
Can’t believe,
you’re so mercenary
All you care about is,
fooling me
Chorus:
Doesn’t matter what you say to me,
I don’t go crazy about your money
Don’t go waving your bills at me,
it’s not the numbers that I can see
Doesn’t matter what you say to me,
I don’t need your generosity
Don’t go telling me who to be
I don’t need anyone’s validity
Verse B:
Loving the frustration,
the look is on your face
You cannot seem to take it,
how’s betrayal taste?
How does it feel,
home made of steel
Then how can a blow it in,
your home, it isn’t real
I’m taking out a twenty,
but you, you own the bank
You’ve gotten yourself plenty,
but your sanity’s at stake
My morals are what i live by
but you, you made yours up
So you trick me into trusting you
then you mess me up
My bed is made of paper
but yours is made of bills
At least I can sleep at night
you know that money kills
And yeah i know I worry
bout what the future holds
But I’m not feeling sorry,
your futures been and gone
Can’t believe
you’re so mercenary
All you care about is
fooling me (Refrain)
Chorus:
Doesn’t matter what you say to me
I don’t go crazy about your money
Don’t go waving your bills at me
It’s not the numbers that I can see
Doesn’t matter what you say to me
I don’t need your generosity
Don’t go telling me who to be
I don’t need anyone’s validity

Dialogue:
RP: Well welcome back. We just had Keonico play us some brand-new tunes for us. Let’s see what the listeners thought of this new Keonico.
Caller C (CC): Hey this is Flume.
RP: Hello Sir.
CC: It’s got a really crazy energy, and that was cool.
L: Wow! Thank you so much! I can’t believe this is really Flume and not just a voice recording taken from a Flume interview on the internet.
RP: Well, it seems like Flume wants to hear some more Keonico. Can you play some more stuff Lochie?
L: Ummm, yeah sure. Let’s try this.

Lyrics:
Verse A:
Seeing you and her the other night,
guess that you could say i didn’t mind
it was the way that she looked at you,
there was no affection in her eyes
and everything she is,
is everything I was
I know you got a type
not admitting it’s your loss
You used to be the player
and now your being played
And I really don’t know if I would say
CHORUS
I, I’m so sorry
that your girl doesn’t love you anymore
And i, I’m so sorry
that your girl doesn’t love you anymore
Verse B:
And I guess it’s hard to take,
so take it in a pill
It’s difficult to swallow
the fact that this is real
I used to see you tripping,
see you power tripping
But now you just seem littler to me
I, I’ve been dreaming of you,
cause it’s better than seeing you face to face
With her, your trophy on the side,
the one you wouldn’t dare to replace
CHORUS
I, I’m so sorry
that your girl doesn’t love you anymore
And i, I’m so sorry
that your girl doesn’t love you anymore
