Season

WITHER I WANDER,WITHER I DO,
FALLEN LEAVES, ARE WET WITH THE DEW,
AUTUMN DOES COME, CHANGING THE YEAR
FROM WHAT WAS ONCE COME, TO WHAT IS NOW HERE

RED, GREEN AND GOLD, THE YEAR HAS GROWN OLD
BEAUTIFUL COLOURS, BRIGHT AND SO BOLD
WITH IT A SADNESS, FOR WINTER IS DUE
TO TAKE AWAY SUN AND BRING IN THE COLD
HOW WILL YOU MISS HER BRINGING GOOD CHEER 
OUT IN THE SUN ENJOYING THE BEER
T-SHIRTS ONCE WORN, NOW PUT AWAY 
JUMPERS COME OUT, WIND IT DOES SWAY

WINTER IS CHILL, THERE'S SNOW ALL AROUND
COVERING THE TREES, GARDEN AND GROUND
BITTER AND COLD, YOU MUSTN'T DISMAY
FOR CHRISTMAS WILL COME AROUND ONCE AGAIN
SANTA IS COMING TO BEAR ALL THE GIFTS
A LITTLE BOY BORN, YOUR SPIRITS HE'LL LIFT

Chinese Army

Chinese army through the west, Chinese army, are the best


Marching through a land so dry, Marching on, through low and high


Continue into spring , Summer too, on they march, through and through


Chinese army won't be stopped, thousands march and thousands drop


On and on, feet are sore, tough and strong,  soldiers galore


Kill some Chinese, then kill some more, still they march on, more and more


Powerful pearl encrusted Armour, strong silver chain mail, finely polished dragon scale


Tips of helmet's encrusted with jewels, glowing bright, lighting hills


see them coming, run in fear, run to those loved one's you hold so dear


tell them quick of what's to come, a Chinese army with swords of blood


hope for rain from the hills, to drown the soldiers from the fields


be prepared for when they come the Chinese army are out for fun, sports of blood they shall play, against men who beg for souls and pray.

Chinese army passing through, leaving death in our view.

INNOCENT OF BLOODSHED

I'M NOT IN YOUR COUNTRY TO STEAL YOUR OIL
TO KILL YOUR LEADER AND ENCOURAGE A COUP
I'M NOT IN YOUR COUNTRY TO ESTABLISH BUSINESS 
TO TAKE CONTROL OR TO ASSIST YOU

WE'RE NOT HERE TO STOP THE THE BLOODSHED
TO HELP THE HARDSHIP, TO PAINT THE TOWN RED
I'M NOT AROUND TO CLEAN UP THE MESS
TO PROVIDE YOU A TEST TO BUILD A NEST EGG

ALTHOUGH IF IT SUITS YOU TO BE DEMOCRATIC
TALK TO ME IT WILL SEEM AUTOMATIC
WE WILL BUILD GOLDEN TOWN'S
PLACE OIL PIPES DOWN
AND ALL FOR A SMALL LOAN TO FEED YOUR OLD
YOU CAN PAY US BACK WITH YOUR LIQUID BLACK GOLD
WE PROVIDE FOOD AT A MODEST, CHEAP SELL
A LITTLE MORE OIL WILL DO JUST AS WELL

WHEN YOUR OIL IS GONE, OUR INVESTORS ARE RICH
WHAT THINGS HAVE GOT HARD? WELL AIN'T LIFE A BITCH
WE WILL SEND IN SOME CASH TO ENCOURAGE A COUP
MAYBE YOUR NEW LEADERS WILL LOOK AFTER YOU
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER, YOUR COUNTRIES RUN DRY
HERE IS SOME SEED, GROW WHEATGERM AND RYE

THE COUNTRIES LOST BALANCE, YOUR LEADERS DEAD
WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WITH A BULLET IN HIS HEAD
WE HELPED YOU AS MUCH AS WE CAN
WE NEVER KILLED HIM, WE HELPED EVERY MAN
WE PROVIDED GUNS AND BULLETS TO YOU
ESTABLISHED DEMOCRACY IN YOUR BACK YARD ZOO

ENOUGH HAS BEEN SAID, NOW BE ON YOUR WAY
OR WE WILL USE OUR SUPERPOWER TO DEMOLISH YOU
WHAT ABOUT THE HUNGRY AND DESTRUCTIVE CITY
MAYBE YOUR RELIGION WILL TAKE SOME PITY

Hear no, see no, speak no

Is there no sound if I cannot hear
No screams and cries hurting one"s ear. No crying baby wiping a tear
No woeful sorrow of guilty fear

Is there nothing visible if I cannot see
No smacking a toddler in front of me
No punching a football fan in Chelsea
No stabbing with a knife violently

Is there nothing to say if one doesn't speak
No violent words do you beseech
No rashful chat or gossiping
No grasping anger do they seek
No sound or any leak, If I cannot speak.

If I cannot do all three
Hear, Speak or see
Should it have a chance to bother me
Could I feel the the hurt within me
if i cannot hear, speak or see.

QUIET GIRL

BULLIED AT SCHOOL, NO WHERE TO TURN,
CLOUT ROUND THE HEAD, MADE YOUR EARS BURN
THE LOUDEST GET HEARD AND SEEN AS GOOD FUN
BUT IT ISN'T SO NICE WITH A PUNCH IN THE TUM
TEACHERS ARE SYMPATHETIC OF THE BAD YEAR
BUT THE LOUDEST GET HEARD WITH ALL THEIR GOOD CHEER
TRY TO KEEP STILL, QUIET AND MEEK
HIDE IN THE LOO'S, PLAY HIDE AND SEEK
BY THE FIFTH GRADE, HAD TOO MUCH OF THIS HELL
WAIT BY THE GATE FOR THE SCHOOL BELL
SOON IT WILL RING FOR THE LAST TIME
THE SOUND WILL BE THE SWEETEST EVER CHIME
WALK OUT OF THE SCHOOL AND NOT TURN AROUND
THE QUICKEST THEY'LL SEE YOUR FEET HIT THE GROUND
FREEDOM AT LAST, GO GET A JOB
BUT IT'S ALREADY GONE TO A BULLYING YOB

THE OAK

DOWN THE ROAD WHERE I WAS BORN THERE WAS AN OAK SO CLEAN AND TALL
THE WONDEROUS BRANCHES UP SO HIGH, ALMOST REACHED AND TOUCHED THE SKY
IT GREW AND GREW YEAR AFTER YEAR, ALL WENT PAST BUT NOT TOO NEAR.
THE PARK IT CHANGED THE HOUSES TOO THE TREE WENT ON, JUST GREW AND GREW,
PLANS FOR BUILDINGS ALL AROUND STILL IT STOOD THERE SO BIG AND GRAND.
THEN CAME THE WIND THAT CHANGED THE WORLD , IT BLASTED IN AND MADE A SWIRL
DESTROYING ALL WITHIN IT'S PATH, BUT THE GRAND OLD OAK HAD THE LAST LAUGH
THE ELM'S WERE GONE, THE ROSE BUSHES TOO, EVERYTHING DESTROYED EVEN THE ZOO AND THE GRAND OLD OAK YOU MAY ASK?
STOOD STRONGER STILL AND SURVIVED THE BLAST
I'VE MOVED AROUND AND GONE ASTRAY, FAMILIES PAST AND GONE AWAY
I AM WEAKENED BY THE STORM THAT BLEW IN, LED ME AND TOOK ME FAR FROM HOME
ONE DAY, YEARS FROM NOW WHEN MY LIFE IS AT AN END
BLOWN AWAY IN HISTORIES BLEND
I HOPE THAT OAK GOES ON AND ON GROWING STRONG UNTIL WINTERS GONE

Bright Yellow Car

What"s that bright yellow car doing out there?
That"s the garden dad you"re looking at grass.
No through the window just out there
It"s enclosed Dad surrounded by a wall 
there is no car it's far too tall.
Why are you saying that, I know what I see, 
look it"s there don't take me for a fool.
Oh yeh dad I can see it now in the garden in front of the shed now do you want Ham, Cheese and pickle with bread?
What am I doing here, staying with you?
You came over last week coz you had flu
I know where I am, but who the hell are you?
What are you saying Dad it's me your daughter Sam
 and that's Andrew.
Oh, I don"t know who you people are
Just please take me home in your bright yellow car.

WHACK!!

PLEASE DO NOT HIT ME COS I DON'T LIKE PAIN
I KNOW I SCARE YOU BUT IT IS SUCH A SHAME
YOU HAVE TO USE VIOLENCE TO COVER YOUR FEAR
I COULD BE A FRIEND TO YOU, SOMEONE WHO'S DEAR
TO HIT AND BEAT ME WOULD LEAVE ME LAME
SQUASH ME FLAT AND DAMAGE MY BRAIN
BUT AS IT HAPPENS THE MAN LOST HIS GLANCE
THE NEWSPAPER MISSED AND RUINED HIS CHANCE
THE LITTLE PEST WAS GIVEN MUCH TIME TO HIS GAIN
AND THE SPIDER RAN OFF AND INTO THE DRAIN

What a commotion

Blink, irreversible ripple wave, sleep irrevocably saved fall on a hardened floor, destroying foundations at war caution be the sign, if req...
