Neall Alcott

Writes and plays acoustic pop rock music along the lines of the Beatles, XTC, Matthew Sweet, Michael Penn.

I started playing guitar when I was around 14 or so. Expanded onto other instruments (piano/keys, bass, vocals) when playing in some bands. I got into songwriting after delving into the Beatles catalog. At the time everything was 4 track. It was fun, but alot of work for so-so results. I've recently got back into writing and recording and the ease and efficiency of recording with today's technology has blown me away.

Lyrics

Verse 1:
They never told you
how to survive
Head above water
Must stay alive
With that mortgage wrapped
around your neck
Life... living check to check

Chorus:
So... what can you say
When nothing goes your way
So... what can you do
When the world comes down on you

Verse 2:
You're just a puppy
Doing what your told
You would prefer
To be left alone
Won't take a risk
Afraid of change
Life... going down the drain

Chorus

Bridge:
Stop being a victim
You've got the power to make a change
It's your life
Don't wait to be saved

Get a move on
You don't have that much time
It's your life
It's time to make a change

Chorus
