Sollox and The Spooners have been making music for a long time, but the exposure that the www can give them has inspired them to new efforts. The band are . . .

Lyrics
Down By The Bay Come to the bay, it’s gonna be sunny Be our guest, it won’t cost you no money Blue skies, blue sea in the Caribbean I’ll show you to your rooms, you’ve gotta see ‘em Just answer a few questions, and come down to the bay, Hey welcome all you campers, welcome to Camp X-Ray Welcome the new world order, justice the U.S. way Just answer all our questions you may survive your stay It’s a helluva welcome we extend you Don’t bother with briefs to wear or defend you No sun lotion, for sunburn relief. The truth will come out, that’s always our belief We’ve got a few more questions, while you’re here at the bay, Hey welcome all you campers, welcome to Camp X-Ray Do everything we tell you and you should be okay And if you play your cards right, you’ll live another day We liberated some people justice To show them just, how just our just is They wake up and say a little prayer We let them keep their Koran there Just answer a few questions, and come down to the bay, Hey welcome all you campers, welcome to Camp X-Ray Just wear this orange jump suit, and you’ll learn to obey Welcome the new world order at Guantanamo Bay
