Medley 1 04:26
Part 1: The Whistle One Too much violence in the world, police sirens. People fighting wars when we’re really craving silence. Peace and love at core, not all this violence. But when are we going to learn to drop our arms? We’ve been taught to colour in the bigger picture Like painting by numbers when there’s more than one to seven Colours in the rainbow, life’s not defined in black and white For there’s mid-grey and many differing hues too. Each time I take a trip to town to have a look around I see people walking backwards down the up escalator Going round and round in circles seeking the eternal answer When it lays deep inside each of us. Change they say takes many lifetimes It doesn’t happen overnight or in the blink of an eye But I’ve a rebel mind and I’m really quite certain That the clean up process really won’t take long. ...and... Part 2: Quick Ditty People think I’m this And people say I’m that Well actually I’m a mother-f***ing twat And that really is a matter of fact And a pretty darn large cunt at that Some people say I take the piss And I say, ‘Yes, at least ten times a day.’

Here I am sitting in this mood again Unable to describe the state I am in Or even find the words to say Why I am so blue and behaving in this way But I know I want our world to change Its violent and ill-formed ways Laws, corruption, murder everyday Surely there is a better way Yes, it's us, society accepting these twisted rules That are so outdated and so old-school Over time we've turned our world to sin And I think that's why I'm in this state I'm in So i know I've got to find better way If I am to live a brighter day if I'm ever going to fit in Into this state we are living in Look around in Mother Nature beauty is found Yet we insist on tearing it down Instead of living with our land Our ongoing mistakes I find so hard to understand Yet this compels me on To know that I am strong And always in believing That there is a better way.
3.
Can’t you see I’m tired of all this crazy messing around? We’re all stuck here in limbo our feet high of the ground Not wanting to lose all of the good things that we’ve found But can’t you see I’m tired of all this crazy messing around? I’m not one to fight but I don’t easily give in If only this whole madness had never started in sin All we can do is be true from within So I’ll start by saying I don’t easily give in Why can’t we stop holding back and move full steam ahead I think we’d all ignite with what we found instead Let’s embrace the magic and not live our lives in dread Why can’t we stop holding back and move full steam ahead Why won’t you just tell me something that I don’t already know We have to forget and believe in that what we reap is what we sow You must agree there’s so much love to grow So why won’t you just tell me something I don’t already know I know it’s hard to let go but there’s so much new to feel We have re-learn again a love that can be real stop trying to deny our natural appeal I know it’s hard to let go but there’s so much new to feel

Medley 2 07:38
Part 1: Saturn's Returns I'm wearing clothes for the morning My stance is a cocoon My whole body is just a shell of me For my heart has left the room My soul left before my heart They are waiting for my mind And when they have the all of me There'll be nothing left behind Part 2: AEIOU I’ve been thinking about this life we are living And I don’t know if I’m ever going to figure it out And I’ve been wondering about this path we are wandering And sure enough I’m still wondering where we are aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat. People talking but our minds go walking Do we ever listen honestly? People looking but our eyes are merely blinking Oh tell me is something that we really seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee? Trapped by fear and hemmed in by life We’re fed a daily diet of lies Peoples’ greeds and socities’ needs Are miseducated and they make me want to criiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiy. There seems to be confusion about the mental constitution Of the people who lead from the top Well when are we going to realise that it really isn’t a surprise That even at death they do not stoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooop? We’ve been teaching wrongs and not been doing rights And led to this state of severe untruth You’d think we’d have learnt by now But somehow still manage to screw up what we do between me and youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu You told me I was stupid and my mind had nothing in it Well I’ve learnt enough to know that you were wrong I spent my life observing you and have so much I’d like to say to you So I started to write these songs fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffor aeiou. Part 3: Dimension What, Degnared? Where, oh where are we Oh please can you tell me what is this dimension that I see So flat, so out of key Oh please can you tell me what is reality This gift, this gift of life Turned instead to war and strife The rich, the powers that be Oh please tell me what are they doing to you and me Miseducated, afraid to work Minds scared, hands afraid of dirt Eyes closed tight, so blind to see Hearts trapped, minds closed, blinkered ignorantly Cold, unfeeling with fear to feel Or even face up to what it is that we have all made real People on the streets waving arms in the air Too many lives torn apart by the few who do not care Oh, where, oh where are we, Oh please tell me what is this dimension that I see And when, when are we going to change This blurred reality that we have made so deranged For where, oh where am I So very sick and tired of all the lies And where, oh where are you Amidst the very little things that you do?

Been feeling so sad, my head in my hands and The longer I sit here, the more it gets worse But my life really ain’t that bad, it’s just I’ve been feeling so sad and The longer I sit here, the more it gets worse Been stuck in a rut, can’t seem to get off my butt and the longer I sit here, the more it gets worse Caught in a catch 22, with an endless list of things to do and the longer I sit here, the more it gets worse So in my own stillness I reaffirm my centredness Inner calm, peace, stability A sense of balance and vision and faith and soul integrity For I need to stoke my own stamina If I’m ever going to tie the many metaphorical loose ends That are fraid and torn and tattered Left me at the end of my tether Tired in retreat and needing to mend But please don’t get me wrong, this is not meant to be a sad song but The longer I sit here, the more it gets worse There’s a raging storm going on, big change in store for everyone and The longer we sit here, the more it gets worse So I’m ready to change, my life rearrange for I’ve sat here too long now, can’t let it get any worse Don’t want to miss my next chance, to get off my arse so I’m not going to sit here any longer, got to put an end to all this hurt
6.
Oh what did you go and hurt me for? Did you want to make me fall? Oh why did you go and hurt me at all? Do you want to hear me scream some more? Or shout down the door? Oh what did you go and hurt me for? So you said that I met another edge Of the being inside your head It came out to play the other night But don’t you think we’re all unhinged? And it just depends on how we chose to swing And release the energy that’s built up within Oh what did you go and hurt me for? Did you want to make me fall? Oh why did you go and hurt me at all? Do you want to hear me scream some more? Or shout down the door? Oh what did you go and hurt me for? And then later on your gentle self Held my head close to your chest And we slept so peacefully And we woke and we laughed As we cleansed ourselves And said we’d discuss the edge later on Oh what did you go and hurt me for? Did you want to make me fall? Oh why did you go and hurt me at all? Do you want to hear me scream some more? Or shout down the door? Oh what did you go and hurt me for? So I guess I saw a side that’s new to me And I’m sure it’s not the last I’m going to see So however strange I’ll treat them tenderly For that’s the edge that I love the best The calm, kind loving one holding me to their chest Who laughs so happily So please, please, please don’t go and hurt me more For I don’t want to scream or shout or run from door But to live and to learn and to laugh a lot And to make the most of what we have got And to love for evermore To love for evermore To love for evermore

Pixie Eyes 03:29
Sometimes I feel so down and out I don’t know how to lose my frown But I think of you and I smile again it doesn’t matter where you are Near or far, of course I’d like you by my side But all I need to know is that you’re warm and feeling love Sometimes I feel so down and out I don’t know how to lose my frown But I think of you and I smile again it doesn’t matter where you are Near or far, of course I’d like you by my side But all I need to know is that you’re warm and feeling love For the joy you bring to me has filled my life with ecstasy And no matter where you are from me, I love the thought of loving you And all the love that you’re loving too Oh, how I love you, yes, how I love you, oh how I love you, how I love you For how you’ve helped me grow, enriched my soul and warmed my spirits I don’t know how I could’ve laughed as much or learnt as much without you by side Oh those sacred times of loving with you and loving you and being loved by you too Being loved by you too, being loved by you too, being loved by you too, being loved by you too For when you touched my heart you lit a spark my mind can follow You make each tomorrow a fresh start, today a gift and yesterday a memory aglow with bliss For our paths met and the love we’ve shared has helped us love ourselves However near or far, I feel you by my side However near or far, I feel you by my side Looking pixie eyes I read your mind I feel your heart I get who you are And the depth of your soul It makes me howl and growl For the pleasure I get from loving us You and I are we Are free
8.
You hoo ooh hoo You hoo ooh hoo I can’t keep hurting myself over you However hard I have to accept What you do and who are you I’ve been aching so much I know it’s time for me to stop Letting myself keep hurting over you hoo ooh hoo But you penetrated my skin You’re all around me and within My heart, my soul, my spirit, my dreams, my psyche, my every being You form the air I’m breathing and every sound I’m hearing You helped make this life I’m living With or without you hoo ooh hoo So I wake each day anew and I start again Trying to fit into this crazy world we’re all living in Ruled by fascist dictators Who care not much for their voters Killing life and Mother Nature Who the fuck are you hoo ooh hoo? When I could so easily roll over and go back to sleep And keep on letting myself hurt over you So many tears that I could weep But where would that get me? Except caught in my own sense of misery Created by me all over you hoo ooh hoo So I’ll find my own two feet And I’ll stand tall in all I do Accept the things I cannot change and strive to do the things that I can do Like loving, caring, sharing, co-creating This beautiful world we live in With thoughts of you hoo ooh hoo
9.
Nice and easy does it, no need to tow the mark Slow and gently goes it, all we need is a little spark Call of hope to remain strong Through these times of change Whilst we rearrange Our priority checklist or is that a hit-list, a wish-list Oh well let’s just do this list and change Come now it’s been too long We’ve been destroying our land we all live upon Washing our hands and passing the blame When are we ever going to hear what the so-called experts have to say about the oncoming New Clear Reign Storm down on me For now I know In fact you know I’ve always known What it is I am living for And I can feel you right here beside me Touching my skin And I feel a deep sense of life In every sound, in every touch and every sight And I know that there’s a spark deep inside of me Burning endlessly strong And glowing on.

Lucky Lady 06:53
Oh yes I am a lucky lady, I live a very lucky life For I have so many great friends and family all around me Who love me through the strife. But I notice a deep sense of sorrow emanating through my songs But this pain is not what is within me, it’s a reflection of the far too many wrongs That are carried out by those above who rule us Dictating the systems and the structures that we live under Misleading us up the wrong garden path and expecting us to just conform and soldier on. Oh come, oh come the cultural reign and thundE.R. for my cloud is so ready to burst For I feel the social storm that’s been brewing now for far too long It’s time for Mother Nature’s Children to be heard. Please don’t get me wrong I’m an artist and I see beauty all around me Life’s potential and sheer and utter brilliance But I can’t deny or ignore the despair that’s been eating you and me People keep telling me to straighten up my ways, pull up my socks Take responsibility, get a grip, learn to keep a stiff upper lip They’ve got their dignity and they’ve earned their respect By fitting in, doing their jobs and trying their best But you know I don’t like what I hear So come, oh come the cultural reign and thundE.R. for my cloud is so ready to burst For I feel the social storm that’s been brewing now for far too long It’s high time for Mother Nature’s Children to be heard Likewise I’m trying too and I like mostly what I see And I love this life I am living but I hate the bureaucracy of being me
11.
I’ve been haunted by demons all of my life Not the fearful, possessive ones but the sweetest of types Of spirits and past-lives who show me the way And offer me pure light by night and by day Darkness guides me and warms me of which way to go And teaches and encourages me to let my love flow And support me through the things I’m yet to know And most all to help me grow The feelings and sensations nurture my soul And help me realise my full potential And to learn from the past and to live in the present And to manifest a future of goodness and celebrate what is sent Well I’ve met so many people who’ve helped me get along To learn to live to love a lot in order to grow strong Grow stronger and stronger by day and by night Always dream good thoughts of pureness and light We’ve been twisted and blighted through life as we know it And tumbled and tossed through this world as we have made it A place of dementia of power gone sour Some call us weeds but I water us as flowers Of beauty, hope, faith, courage and more For from life’s tough beatings we could’ve been floored But we radiate pure beauty an intellect so sure Products of our own wisdom and not society’s man-made and twisted flaws So think of what you’re doing, being and saying For this ain’t no ordinary game of life that you’re playing at And think of what I’m doing, being and saying For this ain’t no ordinary game of life I’m praying for And think of what they’re doing, being and saying For this ain’t no ordinary game of life they’re manipulating And think of what we are doing, being and saying For it ain’t no ordinary game of life we’re co-creating And most of just think and do and be and say For this ain’t no ordinary game of life at play

I read some tabloid news today and I filled my head with the words they have to say Again and again and again and again and again and again and again And I watched some daytime TV and I filled my mind with the images they want us to see Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again Oh, I listended to some radio to day and I filled my mind with the music that they play Again and again and again and again and again and again and again And I surfed the World Wide Web today and I filled my head with the messages they send Again and again and again and again and again and again and again Yes I hear you when you say there are no side effects You are just feeding your daughter and paying the rent Yet maybe you don’t notice as you’ve done your work and left Well wash your hands how ever many times but the problems won’t just go away And yes I know you thought I was out to attack you When I was just asking a question to the person I know best For I err away from judgement and instead observe at best All of our problems and their many side effects All of our problems and their many side effects Too much life now seems like an eternal problem Externally fought but stemming from within So many false judgements outside of us Permeating each and every one of us And so many turn a blind eye and let news fall on death ears Turn the other cheek and sleep, denying our dreams yet never quite awake Oh are we ever going to stand up and put an end to all this shit Or are we to just continue perpetuating this same old nonsense? Or are we to just continue perpetrating this same old nonsense First you say you love me then you say don’t You used to say you get me but now you say, ‘Piss off’ We used to laugh together But now we’re so far apart And you used to help me with my work But no longer care to support Yet still I wonder how you are and I hope you’re doing OK Because whatever’s been and gone my friend, you’ll always be special to me yes, whatever’s been and gone my friend, you’ll always be special to me We’re surrounded by so much confusion, blurred boundaries, systems gone wrong So many false judgements and blinded observations We’re being led to inaccurate conclusions and expected to just carry on But I don’t know how much longer I can keep this up, I now so want to move on Alas we’re still stuck fast in a twisted past Holding onto bygones, grudges and pointless competitions Striving towards backwards superlatives and refusing to just get along Well, wherever we are in this game of play I’ll up my mark by stepping down and learn to give up Yes, I’ll up my mark by stepping down and learn to give up I read some tabloid news today and I filled my head with the words they have to say Again and again and again and again and again and again and again And I watched some daytime TV and I filled my mind with the images they want us to see Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again Oh, I listended to some radio to day and I filled my mind with the music that they play Again and again and again and again and again and again and again And I surfed the World Wide Web today and I filled my head with the messsages they send Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and armageddon and again and armageddon and again and again thearmed909 again

about

An extension of my creative activity, this album has been slowly forming over the past ten years. Gently supported and coaxed along by kindred spirits, everything you hear I performed in a studio in Willesden over a sixteen hour period earlier this year.
