"Doing The Thing" is about making the call and not beating around the bush when a relationship is clearly not working out. Sometimes being direct is an act of kindness. We tried to embody that directness in the arrangement, no frills, no fuss, just lay it down and walk away.
We hope you enjoy the track xo

Lyrics:
We’ve been doing the thing for a minute.
And your heart just ain’t in it.
Ain’t no sense in pretending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
We’ve been doing the thing for a minute.
And your heart just ain’t in it.
Ain’t no sense in pretending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
I tried, and tried, and tried to love you.
Exactly the way that you wanted me to.
And then a couple of months gone by,
and I could see,
that I ain’t who you want me to be, oh!
We’ve been doing the thing for a minute.
And your heart just ain’t in it.
Ain’t no sense in pretending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
We’ve been doing the thing for a minute.
And your heart just ain’t in it.
Ain’t no sense in pretending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
Well baby please don’t string me along with that song and dance.
I ain’t lookin’ for a pre-fab romance.
Well, you ain’t doing me any favors keeping me on the line.
Ain’t nothin’ but wasted time, oh!
We’ve been doing the thing for a minute.
And your heart just ain’t in it.
Ain’t no sense in pretending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
You ain’t pickin’ up what I’m sending.
(Pickin’ up what I’m sending!)
(Pickin’ up what I’m sending!)
(Pickin’ up what I’m sending!)
(Pickin’ up what I’m sending!)
(Ooh! Pickin’ up what I’m sending!)
(Ooh! Pickin’ up what I’m sending!)
