lyrics

What did you expect
What did you expect
After all that was wrecked
and the loss of respect
What did you expect

If it wasn’t nailed down
If you didn’t put your name on it
It won’t be here when you return
Just something more counterfeit

If you didn’t bust a gut
If you didn’t show off
How will we know it was you
That added all of this
To the edges of the trough

What did you expect
What did you expect
After eliminating all other suspects
And breaking all the necks
What did you expect

Claim what you think is rightful
Get off quickly once you take your bow
You see that all around is frightful
I wasn’t ready then
I’m ready now

If you brandish the weapons
If you catch on quick
How will the others be reckoned with
Be the carrot and carry a big stick

If there’s liars in the pulpit
And few good in the weeds
How will we know where the full of it sit
When we are counting up all the quiet deeds

What did you expect
What did you expect
When they defame and deflect
And celebrate the reject
What did you expect

Stay hidden until it’s really time to fight
No one out there will show you how
When faces are reddened and time is tight
I wasn’t ready then
I’m ready now

Songwriting and banging your instruments together

The main thing I love to do is write songs. I pick up various instruments from ukulele to piano, accordion to percussion and electric guitar to harmonica and bang them about to try and get close to the noises I hear in my head but the writing comes first. ... more
