Just me! Everything you hear is played on the synths in my home studio.
Story behind the song
About how we are all so often annoyed and angry about the way our country is run, but usually those people who stand up and action change just end up being as bad as those they replaced.
Lyrics
With the sidewalks, catwalks.
Rusted metal railings reflect the full moon.
And the leaders, feeders,
Living off the backs of the working man.
Time for leisure, pleasure,
Spending money with feeling passion.
And the choirgirl, good girl,
Walks the streets at night to feed her son.
Chorus:
Another day, another night.
For the way we follow you.
Another day, another fight.
Until we’ve had enough of you.
Come and teach us, preach us.
Tell us the error of our evil ways.
And the pressmen, war-men,
Taking our soles for the glory they gain.
Chorus
For the land, the sea and the hills,
We’ll give our all to save it from you.
Though our pride remains in place,
We know that we’ve lost it all.
Solo
Time to stand up, stand up!
Learn to fight in what we believe.
And you’ll listen, listen!
Do as I say now ‘cos my word is law!
Chorus (repeat)
For the land, the sea and the hills,
We gave our all to save it from you.
Though our pride remained in place,
We knew that we’d lost it all.
