He's been keeping me down
And making me frown

In a tough old sack
The Devil weighs me down every day

The Devil is mine
It's a long old journey down below

Bad Old Choo Choo
03:42
|

Chorus
Can you hear that train
Coming for you
Can you hear that train
Bad old choo choo
Verse 1
Flat on your back, tied to the track
Ready to die, no time to cry
Rumble of fate, a flattened state
No one around to hear a sound
Verse 2
Should have spoken, bones a broken
No room to choose, you can't get loose
Bonds are so tight, chained up in fright
It's getting near, paralysed fear
Verse 3
Can't get away, or do you stay
There is a choice, find your voice
Break the Chain, over and again
Time to be free, now think of me

Bird Semen and Hookers
04:24
|
|||
Verse 1
I went for a walk one day
With my good friend Dan
The weather was nice
Seemed like a good plan
Conversation was flowing
As you do
My brain went away
My mouth carried on through
Chorus
That's how you get
Bird semen and hookers
Verse 2
This alarmed us somewhat
That our minds went there
We were really confused
That we would care
We started to ponder
How to extract a bird's seed
All that gooey juice
Has to be freed
Verse 3
We wondered about bird porn
Where you can get it
It was time to contemplate
We found somewhere to sit
It's not a normal discussion
Seemed strange to us
Would it be cool to bring up
Or would it cause a fuss
Verse 4
We decided to give up
And went on home
Dan thought of using a sexy frog
Posing as a garden gnome
Back like a clitoris
But birds don't like that stuff
It was beyond us
And enough is a enough

Oh, I'm stuck inside, don't know what to do
Don't know what to do
Oh, I'm stuck inside, don't know what to do
Don't know what to do
I gone and got me
Those Corona virus blues
Verse 2
Queueing up at the supermarket
End up with some really weird food, some really weird food
Queuing up at the supermarket
End up with some really weird food, some really weird food
Where is the toilet paper and pasta
What if I need the loo
Verse 3
Covid 19
You gotta keep your hands real clean, real clean
Covid 19
You gotta keep your hands real clean, real clean
The whole world's gone mad
I wish it was a dream

Background
“There's a man in the back” and “Thief, liar, murderer”
Verse 1
There's a man in the back
Can't you see
There's a man in the back
Richer than you and me
He pulls lots of strings
Controls many things
Don't know what he wants
Or why he wants it
Verse 2
He steals from the world
Makes his own rules
he tries to control
Laughs at the fools
Hides in plain sight
So hard to fight
Those who are awake
Are the ones he must break
Verse 3
War, famine, poverty
He makes his money through misery
Let's Bring the man down
Lets Bring the man down
The rules he breaks
He's prepared for the ends
Nothing for me and you
Trapped in the zoo
Verse 4
He puts up the wall
Divided we'll fall
Hidden slavery
We'll never be free
Over years he got in
Using any sin
Too late to stop
The power won't pop
Let's bring the man down, let's bring the man down

The Ballad of Jimmy Luck
04:27
|
|||
Verse 1
Now, let me tell you about little Jimmy Luck
His parents really couldn't give a fuck
Put him in a house for lost boys
Went and sold all his toys
He was always ill you see
Had every single allergy
With every bone break and all his ills
Couldn't afford the hospital bills
Verse 2
Every time he went out for a bit
He'd end up covered in bird shit
His shoes were covered in all the mess
Lost all his clothes but for a dress
Through every dink and hole he would trip
Lets not even talk about his fly zip
That poor boy would be breaking everything
And listen to the boy as he'd sing
Verse 3
Now Jimmy liked a pipe
It didn't do him no good
When he lit it up
His house was made of wood
So then that house burnt down
Poor Jimmy, smoking, sleeping clown
Now when Jimmy goes to sleep
He's got no roof or food to eat

I don't want to wear those Devil's old shoes
He's been keeping me down
And making me frown
I don't want to wear those Devil's old shoes
Verse 2
I have to wear them every day
I have to wear them everyday
I can't take them off
How the rich folk scoff
I have to wear them every day
Verse 3
The Devil weighs me down every day
The Devil weighs me down every day
I carry him on my back
In a tough old sack
The Devil weighs me down every day
Verse 4
It's a long old journey down below
It's a long old journey down below
It'll take you some time
The Devil is mine
It's a long old journey down below
