lyrics

I knew a boy who had the ability
To appreciate the worlds natural beauty
Grew up to be an architect, town planner, city hall
Grew up to build concrete monstrosity
His wife, she's a painter, water colour landscapes
Every stroke she makes is another toward escape
She lives in a tower of steel in a concrete jungle
Against the glass you can hear her fingers scrape

Their son was a poet laureate at least in his own mind
He crafted words that sang with a rhythm and rhyme
Grew up got a job on a red top tabloid
and now his words sink in the filth and grime
His sister she's a thespian
Dreams of treading the boards, Covent Garden down the West End
Her break came in independent film, she had a leading role
DP, A to M, and of course lesbian

If art is the reflection
of humankind's imagination
Then music is the mirror
Music is the mirror to the soul

Music is the mirror to the soul (x3)

Their influences range from Nick Cave, The Clash, The Pixies, King Tubby, Johnny Cash etc to spaghetti westerns.
After 25 years the song writing has matured, and the latest tunes reflect this. Enjoy!
