lyrics

Load it up
Load up the bag
We’ve been here too long I think
Crowded stairwells
Of ne'er-do-wells
And the machines on the brink
Of collapse
And disaster
Nobody lives
Happy ever after
In the eyes of their mothers

Pack it in
We’ve had enough
You’ve destroyed all that’s in your wake
Tall grey monoliths
No signs of blacksmiths
Get out for goodness sake
No one will hire you
There’s broken ramps
Nobody sings anymore
Underneath street lamps
In the eyes of the hurricane

In the eyes of the hurricane
You appear quite insane
Your spinning bow tie not withstanding
In the eyes of the hurricane
Mr. Walpole’s throbbing migraine
Is a poor substitute for understanding
The eyes of a hurricane

Run the gamut
But not the gammon
Hamming it up is not the answer
Pockets of whiskered types
Sharing painful gripes
In front of nonchalant exotic dancers
They twirl their tassels
No one cares
And no one wants to give up
Any of the good chairs
In the eyes of a hurricane

In the eyes of the hurricane
You’ll never find Diane Lane
Her curious body of work not withstanding
In the eyes of the hurricane
Stretched out across the earth like a varacous vein
No one in government or on the thrown is understanding
The eyes of a hurricane

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
