HOMEGROWN EP AVAILABLE NOW!!!!

About Me

3 musicians with classical training producing music which has been described as both retro and modern.
To Save the Human Race
You sit in your house all cosy and warm,
You switch on the kettle and begin to yawn,
You're unaware of what you do,
But what can you do to help a few?

You drain the rivers, you drain the power,
For your own pleasure, just to kill an hour,
The gas you use, the planes you fly,
Destroy the Earth, and that's no lie.

(eh...solo)

Some folks I swear don't have a clue,
That's when the layer is destroyed by you,
And they will suffer all alone,
And they will die no sound or drone.

The water rises higher and higher,
You say it won't: you fuckin liar,
The land is gone; nowhere to stand,
As the river engulfes the land.
