Just something for you all to listen to; enjoy!
A simple idea; get four guys together in a room, hand them some instruments, hope that they can play 'em, and let them go at it! An even simpler one; take one of those four, get him a place to present song ideas, then let the band develop them further... This is what you have here...

Another song from our punk covers EP...
Lyrics
Gotta, gotta getaway (2X) You know there ain't no street like home To make you feel so all alone Plenty of folk to tell you what to do But they don't speak the same language as you They want to have me here Have me and hold me near Hold me down, fasten and tie But the cars are all passin' me Bright lights are flashin' me I feel life passin' me by The fuss is buzzin' in my head Father argued and my mother begged It's not their words that tug at me Gotta stretch them, break them Get myself free They want to have me here Have me and hold me near Hold me down, fasten and tie But the cars are all passin' me Bright lights are flashin' me I feel life passin' me by Gotta, gotta getaway
