Plant Pot Face 02:35
lyrics
Got no reason, look at us breedin’ - over populating The major cities, propa busy, gettin’ isolating When I look out the window, I don’t see a beautiful view Just tower blocks, a lot of cars while am sippin’ ma brew Call me a freak but can’t ya see that grey is everywhere? I want a scene, walk on green, a clean breeze through ma hair Ma favourite thing to do is look up at the sky at night But light pollution stops the stars from shining bright Chainsaw the trees, erect a concrete jungle Backward human race at a relentless pace Am a plant pot face, plant pot face Plant pot face, protect every race A higher intellect does not give us the right to choose What lives, what dies, they ain’t got a clue! If we gave animals a voice I reckon they would sue All the destroyers of plants and put ‘em in a zoo Murder the trees, erect a concrete jungle Backward human race at a relentless pace Am a plant pot face, plant pot face Plant pot face, pollution is disgrace Plant pot FACE

Days of Our Lives 06:23

She’s gone away, had it all yesterday Wondered into the forest, got lost on the way Out there in the distance, she shone through the dark Kept the candle a-burnin’ but now we’re apart Seein’ her, hearin’ her voice as she’s singin’ It felt like a drug with a new kind of high My own Irish clover, she pledged to the clover Her life was like bright summertime in the light of the sun The sun, the sun I think of the borders between both the lands While an hourglass freezes, no flow in the sand There’s splashes of hope in my memory stream Causing ripples of gladness, a mind full of dreams We had our time drinkin’ whiskey and wine Through the days that were ours and the nights and the stars Now we tried letting go of emotions that flowed Like a river of gold, shining bright as the snow in the sun The sun, the sun Makin’ a change, gonna find a way Embrace the sun and the wind and the rain Get a new start, though it may be hard Find who we are, send away what we’re not, coz These of the days of our lives These are the days of our lives We don’t solve our problems from the barrel of a gun These are the days of our lives Now it’s our time, never to rewind Seeing is easy, just open your mind Take a deep breath, ready to invest Joy in humanity, put it to the test, coz These of the days of our lives These are the days of our lives We can do anything by dancin’ in the sun Roam through The Pastures, yeah, come on everyone Watch the horizon, live free… Day by day, honesty’s the only way These of the days of our lives These are the days of our lives We don’t solve our problems from the barrel of a gun These are the days of our lives These of the days of our lives These are the days of our lives We can do anything by dancin’ in the sun Roam through The Pastures, yeah, come on everyone Watch the horizon, live free… Day by day, honesty’s the only way

What Would You Do 06:04
lyrics

Freedom, would you fight for your county? Freedom, would you fight in a war? Freedom, would you pay for protection? Freedom, would you pay with your life? Liars, it shouldn’t cost a penny Liars, should not be fightin’ at all Liars, there always consequences Liars, it’s not our debt to pay What would you do if it was you, would you live up to the cause? Live like an animal, swim in the deep, end up in the jaws Abolish money ‘cause it’s not funny when ya think of the poor Born in a third world country’s nothin’ but an unlucky draw What’s your problem? Our taxes pay for your war Am sick of this s*** it’s not about control You stir the seas but we share a boat Humanity, will it sink or float? What would you do if it was you, thievin’ food to survive When every day is a struggle, they don’t care for the deprived The suits are actin’ concerned but poverty’s not on their mind They use our money to conquer and to divide What’s your problem? We’re always takin’ the fall Am working-class, I should be havin’ a ball Equality, get it in your head Coz folk are hungry but you’re already fed Freedom, would you fight for your county? Freedom, would you fight in a war? Freedom, would you pay for protection? Freedom, would you pay with your life? Pay with your life! Na na na na na…

End of Days 04:56
lyrics

We’re makin’ circles, chasin’ tails Feels like am runnin’ off the rails I dread to think what’s comin’ next Look at the ozone getting’ thin Deforestation is a sin Stop the consuming of the earth The whole damn planet is a gift Treat it well, don’t take the p*** What will we see in years to come? A holocaust, nuclear strike Mass-destruction over night What is a vote when we don’t know? Not gonna live in disarray [oi oi oi!] Pollution stays but the planet pays It’s evolution so they say At the end of days, will it be too late? Hypocracy is always there Empty words are what they share ‘Long as they’re stayin’ in control But we’ve got an opportunity Makin’ change in unity Revolution for the win In justice acts shouldn’t be of man We gotta deal, do what we can Their selfish ways, am not a fan At the end of days, could it be too late? Not gonna live in disarray Pollution stays but the planet pays It’s evolution so they say At the end of days, will it be too late? At the end of days, it’s gonna be too late
