Benjamin Sainte-Clémentine (; born 7 December 1988) is an English artist, poet, vocalist, composer, and musician.Born and raised in London, England, Clementine later moved to Paris, France becoming homeless as a teenager. There, his performances helped him to become a cult figure in the music and art scene. Moving back to London, he made his TV debut on the BBC programme Later With Jools Holland in 2013. A number of critics described him as becoming one of the great singer-songwriters of his generation and the future sound of London, whilst struggling to place his music in any one genre.Considered by The New York Times as one of the 28 geniuses who defined culture in 2016, Clementine's compositions are musically incisive and attuned to the issues of life but … more »

I remember walking by the A406
Holding bags of mother sent cornflakes
Guessing somebody might have noticed
A little boy big head small ears
Whilst making a ballad through a Sunday mist
Sure we've all been there done it
Prepare a little time to reminisce
On all that eventually falls into nothingness
Oh, all will be gone
After all
Before we all get to the knowing 
All will be gone 
 
I went back to where life seemed promising at first
Gambling on memory's lane
I tried a trip through all the pavements and fields 
But I lost cause all had changed 
Like the road I use to cross to school  
Is now full of prostitutes
No wonder why the priest is dead
No wonder why the priest is dead
Oh brother when did you get married?
Neighbours where did you vanish to?
If it was to a wonderland,
Well it's not known to my kind, mankind
 
All will be gone
After all 
Before we all get to the knowing
All will be gone 
 
And what about relationship?
What is it about relationships that we don't get?
Here we are always thinking we've learnt only to get smacked and realise we are but mere students of life
And feels like
We've been fighting a lost battle
To have always realise at the end of it all
It feels like
We've been brought to a royal banquet, just to be served a brew and a wretched floor
But I say
It doesn't mater 
All because am here now and it's too late to go back anyways
And so I will get it all going, 
Whilst it all gets lost and gone.
