Oldtimer in an Old Hymer Motorhome
It started with a closed cell insulation, condensation conversation
Butane pipe for propane, it all got somewhat deeper
Said an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome
I was stuck in a rut, driven to the booze
By the job I hated, I was so afraid to loose
Said an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome
I saw our shadow fall, on a super wolf blood moon
I wondered about the planet, we are on
Said an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome
Religion is a thing that sets out to divide
Let’s put it to one side, and unite
Said an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome
Technology is spying, to harvest all your data
To target advertising, they want to automate you
Said an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome
I’m an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome
I’m an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome
I’m an oldtimer in an old Hymer motorhome

Lockdown Train

Lockdown Train
The minister is sinister, filling up my screen
He says nobody can move, no one is to be seen
Special trains, special planes, the workers are on the move again
Coming here to kneel and pick, doesn’t matter if they get sick
The days are flying by, the weeks are even quicker
I got all the time in the world, in the hours, minutes and seconds
They trained me for the lockdown
When they locked me up
Had to get used to giving up some stuff
They trained me for the lockdown
When they locked me up
Had to get used to giving up some stuff, they took it away
It’s the little things in life, make it worth living
The friendly words, the sharing, the giving and forgiving
Reject the focus on the cloak and dagger hoax jokes folks
Or vaccinating for 5G conspiracy, right wing dopes tropes
We are floating in the space, and the space in between
A facemask, a tin foil hat and a tissue, we all fall down
They trained me for the lockdown
When they locked me up
Got to get used to giving up some stuff
They trained me for the lockdown
When they locked me up
Had to get used to giving up some stuff, they took it away
All in this together, we got to help each other out
All in this together, we got to help each other out
All in this together, we got to help each other out
All in this together, we got to help each other out
All in this together, we got to help each other out
They trained me for the lockdown
When they locked me up
Had to get used to giving up some stuff
They trained me for the lockdown
When they locked me up
Had to get used to giving up some stuff, they locked me up

Selfish Fish Seller
The fish shoal together, to try to survive
The selfish fish seller, wants them dead or alive
The selfish fish seller, puts a price on their head
The selfish fish seller, sells shellfish as well
The selfish fish seller, weighs the fish up on the scales
Then guts it, and chops off the head and the tail
The selfish fish seller, cuts the fins, scrapes the scales
The Japanese do it with whales
Oh bring back, bring it back to me, bring back my diversity
The factory ship hoovers the ocean
The factory ship hoovers the sea
The fish that are caught, they are frozen
And brought back to feed you and me
Bring back, bring it back to me
Bring back the ocean to me
Bring back, bring back leviathan
Bring back, bring back Moby Dick
Bring back, bring back mermaids, sea monsters
Bring back, bring back sea shepherd, Greenpeace
Bring back, bring it back to me, bring back my diversity
The fish shoal together
The fish shoal together
The fish shoal together
The fish shoal together
The fish shoal together

I Don’t Wanna be Right

I Don’t Wanna be Right
I don’t wanna be right
About the shit that goes down in this world
But my, imagination is lurid and lucid
Some people are living in pain
Some of us fly, fly, fly, fly, away
Some people fly too close to the flame
Never coming back again
I’ve got a friend, who’s gone off the reptilian edge
His scales, they are showing
And he barks in cold, cold blood
He sits on a rock
In the sun but he never warms up
His heart is a crystal
And his eyes have the look of the dead
The alarm, that sounds out all of the time
Is not true, not none of the time
Just pushes the level of anxiety
Through the roof, through the roof, through the roof
Panic fled back to the UK
Panic bought bog roll along the way
Panic lied about his motive
Panic let the whole side down
I don’t wanna be right
About how all of our dreams have been sold
And to stay inside our homes we’ve been told
We’ve been told, we’ve been told, we’ve been told
I hear the banging on the outside
The doors are locked from the outside
Light and love live on the outside
Over the side, over the side, on the outside
I don’t wanna be right
I don’t wanna be right
I don’t wanna be right
I don’t wanna be right
I don’t wanna be right
I don’t wanna be right

Gullible Travellers
It’s embarrassing how gullible my friends are
Played by Facebook for fools
It must have been nice to like all the likes
So many you must have felt cool
Thirteen minutes to brainwash a fool
Can now be done in three minutes or two
Gullible travellers
Gullible travellers
Have I got the wrong end of the stick?
The thin end of the wedge?
Nothing is as it seems
It seems the joke’s on me
I say, nothing is as it seems
It seems the joke’s on me
Gullible travellers
Gullible travellers, hey
I ran on the road from Damascus
I turned from a Paul to a Saul
All those weirdos tripping raving
Exceptional people it’s not affecting
Living with Corona dying with Covid nananananana nineteen
Lockdown songs, lockdown rights and wrongs
Gullible travellers
Gullible travellers
Gullible

Staccato Stiletto
From the mean streets, wrong side of the tracks
Live life to the max
He’s known as a brute, machine pistol shoot
Oh, oh, staccato
She looked down, from up on the hill
Like a princess, that’s how the dice fell
She was tough, she dressed to kill
Oh, oh, stiletto
When you’re stealing, dealing from the bottom of the deck
You better move it, cos life can fly it passes quick
Eyes wide open, looking for the golden chance
When it comes, you grab it with both of your hands
She had keys, when all the doors are locked
She had ways, when all the roads were blocked
She had days, and nights she didn’t give a fuck
Oh, oh, stiletto
Fast car driver, sometimes he rode his luck
Good protector, and he could turn a buck
Take directions, he’s the muscle right behind
Strap yourself in, we’re going on a rocket ride
When you’re stealing, dealing from the bottom of the deck
You better move it, cos life can fly it passes quick
Eyes wide open, looking for the golden chance
When it comes, you grab it with both of your hands
The lawyer says, make sure you got nothing to hide
The policeman, gonna make you spend your life inside
The life you chose, is dangerous you nearly died
You looked around, saw the mess you made and cried
Oh, oh, staccato
Oh, oh, stiletto
Oh, oh, staccato
Oh, oh, stiletto
When you’re stealing, dealing from the bottom of the deck
You better move it, cos life can fly it passes quick
Eyes wide open, looking for the golden chance
When it comes, you grab it with both of your hands

It’s Not Just the Night that Falls
Living in a strange land
Strange caress, strangers hand
What country is this?
Country air we breathe
When darkness comes
It’s not just the night that falls
My dark heart falls for you
When darkness comes
It’s not just the night that falls
My resistance, that falls too
Sailing on a strange sea
All together like sardines
We are waving at the coast
Count the cost, all is lost
When darkness comes
It’s not just the night that falls
My dark heart falls for you
When darkness comes
It’s not just the night that falls
My resistance, that falls too
Singing, shrill singing me down
By the light of the moon
What songbird is this?
Ruffling feathers with a tune
When darkness comes
It’s not just the night that falls
My dark heart falls for you
When darkness comes
It’s not just the night that falls
My resistance, that falls too

European Onion
European onion, peel away the layers, we are all still there
The Irishman, the German, the French and the Greek
The rich and the poor, the brash and the meek
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
Oh holy of holies the chosen are living on stolen promised land
And nobody wants what you make
And nobody likes you, nobody likes you
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
The law is not there for justice or fair play
The law is there to maintain the whole rotten order
The crown, the entitled and the border
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
I hear you are trying to make yourself great again
Dragging out the old empire of hate again
What you used to call the white man’s burden
To those who received was genocide and murder
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better
Everyone is as good as another unless they think they are better

What? Elephant
Everyone’s under suspicion
Everyone’s under the spell
Everyone’s under surveillance
Everyone’s under arrest
Everyone’s under the weather
Everyone’s under control
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
It’s all gone all the money
It’s all gone behind the smile
It’s all gone from view
It’s all gone off the screen
It’s all gone in your dreams
It’s all gone for you
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
We’re living in a time of plague
We’re living with a burning flame
We’re living with our thoughts enslaved
We’re living and faking the rage
We’re living like it’s all a game
We’re living and I just have to say
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room
Nobody’s talking ‘bout the elephant
Everybody’s giving it room

Midnight Leaf Blower
Midnight leaf blower, directed by the man in the suit
He cannot see the leaves, he knows where they lie, he blows in the dark
Beside the trees, there are flagpoles with no leaves
Man in the suit he thinks, why can’t all trees be like these
Then I would not have to pay the worker and his breeze, machine
Then I would not have to pay the worker, and his breeze
I’ve been through some dark times, when I just couldn’t see
I’ve been through some dark times, when I just couldn’t see
On m’a trouve dessus, ma duvet sur mon lit
C’est dommage que l’esprit de soixante-huit est bien parti
C’est qu’une mirage que des Francais ont allée danser sur le pont
Bon courage des gilets jaunes leur vie en banlieue et en ville
I’ve been through some dark times, when I just couldn’t see
I’ve been through some dark times, when I just couldn’t see
Now that my eyes are gone they’re open, I can really see
The blindness of your heart, has wrought the blindness of your soul and your body
Remember riches can take flight, if you try to keep them for yourself
The poor are waiting at your gate, they’re asking for your help
I’ve been through some dark times, when I just couldn’t see
I’ve been through some dark times, when I just couldn’t see

Ring A Bell for Me
My dog died, my father died, and Joanie died
I went inside for a while, for swimming against the tide
I’m waiting, I’ll be waiting, she said
I’m waiting, I’ll be waiting, she said
Imagine my surprise when she isn’t here
She isn’t there, she isn’t anywhere
I’m waiting, I’ll be waiting, she said
When you go down to your place of worship to ring a bell
Won’t you ring a bell, ring a bell for me
When you go down to your place of worship to ring a bell
Won’t you ring a bell, ring a bell for me
Now golden leaves are falling
Spinning in the morning golden sun
Now golden leaves are falling
Spinning in the morning golden sun
I’ve been alone for long enough
I am golden, I am ready for some fun
Now golden is the air, golden light on golden oak
And golden leaves are falling
Spinning in the morning golden sun
Spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning
In the morning golden sun
When you go down to your place of worship to ring a bell
Won’t you ring a bell, ring a bell for me
When you go down to your place of worship to ring a bell
Won’t you ring a bell, ring a bell for me
When you go down to your place of worship to ring a bell
Won’t you ring a bell, ring a bell, ring a bell, ring a bell, ring a bell
Ring a bell, ring a bell for me
Spinning in the morning golden sun
