Winter Winds

Outside the winter winds are howling, lone wolves prowling, rents not free
Inside the politicians scheming, take their tea break, freedom screaming
They bury memories of your culture, feed like vultures on our fears
Controlling masses through their media, lies they'll feed ya, cash they'll bleed ya
(lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie)
Melanin, melanin, pineal, what's happening
Tossing turning brain is burning tossing turning
I can't sleep
Ask all their questions to the coven, from the fridge into the oven
Taxing the ground on which we live on, just bought into, my life's prison
Remember when you were a young child, life was such fun, life was so wild
Just think of life and all its merits, love the difference, toast the spirit
Easy padre let the mind play, night is night day is day
Close your eyes start to pray street light fade away
Stamp your feet move around can't stay lying down
Lost the sheep, now you've got to count the clowns
Poppadom for a pillow hear you snorting hear you swallow
Bladder pounds heart does follow cracking light says it's tomorrow
Namya ho renge kyo

Nice to be Nice
06:36

Some are lively, some 'abide me', there is pride and shy to be
But there is only one for me
It's a nice cup of tea, under the apple tree
Electricity from a nice lady drink of wine, sunshine
To be everyone's and you to be mine
Some are blinded, some the kind that live for money
Others take their ruin simply, music to miss me, high
On the brandy and whisky
Little sips see rip me frisky drink of wine, sunshine
To be everyone's and you to be mine
Always singing always dancing la la la
The street to make you happy
Always singing always dancing la la la
The people all around
Nice to be nice naughty and free sun shining on a full belly
The woman in the street with the pram is laughing
She puts her bags down and is dancing
The baby's rocking in his pram as begins our busking jam
You can do it in your welly boots
Even shuffle in a three piece suit
In the pub or in the nude
It's a dance to really move you
Gewn ni dawns trwy'r nos a peidiau becso

Random Acts of Kindness

Good evening sir, how do you do?
Got something here to share with you
Please remain sir, don't run away
It is an act and it is kind and it's OK
If you got time sir, I got some lime sir
If that's too bitter to your taste then I will look and I will find you something sweeter
This is Peter, I am Nigel and today you've been selected for a Random Act of Kindness
Would you like some fruit with your cigarette
Do you need some vitamin C?
Hang around, I'll slice you some nectarine
Random Acts of Kindness North East
Please believe that what I am trying
Is something we should try to achieve
I'm not selling, you are not buying
You're not giving you just receive
Good morning miss, we hope you're well
Your teeth are lovely, they suit your smell
A youth I once, I caused offence
And now I offer my recompense
A cigarette miss? A sip of wine?
Well sure if you want two or if a mere sip won't do
Then that is fine dear, if you'll just stay here
For just the time it takes to peel this grape
Then we'll be on our way to spread our madness...
Would you like some fruit with your cigarette,
Do you need some hair of the beast?
Got a pain? I'll give you an aspirin
Random Acts of Kindness North East
Please perceive that what I am doing
Is giving you a part of my is
Please receive it with you respect
And please accept that that's what it is...

Gentlemen we see before us spirits from the Balkan regions
Recipes centuries passed down to the drunken legions
First we sniff to test is air the vapour of the plum Palinka
Toast "NAROC" and down the hatch, we all begin to drinka
Vodka for the true believer, brings a tear to your eyes
Slivo brings psychotic fevee, makes you dance and slap your thigh
Match test, blue flame, Palinka makes the Czech look lame
Slivo blows up half the bar, just pour it in and start your car
Slivovic, Slivovic, Slivovic Slivovic
Tinctures of the devil can be found at the Hagi hotel football ground
Lucky Luciano's grappa really got us off our napper
Razor Ruddick rears his head, turns into a drunken scrapper
More Slivo had by all, toasts turned into raging bulls
By far the best drink of all was water for our aching skulls
Oh whyaye whyaye ye buggar
I like Slivo better than vodka
Here's a toast to Saban
Shivoli to Saban

6/8 We'll Be Late
06:00

We're on the way, it's a lovely day
The sun is out, the vibe is gay
The wine it flows, the smoke it blows
The nose before us no-one knows
The scene is green and seen we've been
The airwaves crackle in between
They got our plate, they sealed our fate
But we can't wait cos we'll be late
Pull me up and pull me down
Get on your knees and spin around
And take a stance and take a glance
And take me in your ambulance
The scene is green and seen we've been
The airwaves crackle in between
They got our plate, they sealed our fate
But we can't wait cos we'll be late
It's so bizarre said the camping man
To his camping wife in their camping van
As they viewed the strife on their camping site
And stirred their pan of camping shite
Yes it's surreal, she stood transfixed
As we got turned over in the sticks
Come join me in your lock up truck
Take down my pants and have a look

Nude One

I don't want to go to work today
Just want to leave it all and play away
The sky is blue but me bed is cozy
Think I'm going to have a naturist party
When you're nude it's not rude it's just like when you were born
So don't be a prude, lose the kit and hit the lawn
'Cos the nude nude one
Has a lot of fun
The nude nude one
Holds the body to the sun
And you can look a strange fruit (banana)
Walking in your birthday suit
And you can play a mean flute (banana)
Walking in your birthday suit
And when the cold wind blows
It's time to put on your clothes

You're So Yes

You're so cool, you're so hot
you are someone I want a lot
You're so lovely, you're so fine
You are someone I want to be mine
I feel like I have realised life's mystery
One person only vitalised that part of me
Every dream of mine will be reality
If we live happily ever after, into distance
The setting sun will be a backdrop for my sadness
If you and I cease to be one
You're so yes I could never say no
You're more yes than I've ever known
You're so lovely, you're so sweet
You are someone I thought I'd never meet
I feel like I have realised life's mystery
One person only vitalised that part of me
Every dream of mine will be reality
If you and I live happily ever afterly
