I was riddled with ambivalence I’d sit on the fence There’s a saying that says There is no saying that makes sense I would sit in the dark room I’d be fearful of change How lucky I was To have my life rearranged By you I was just a passenger A face in the crowd Searching for some clarity Where everything was loud Then the door swung open And the sun broke through Relinquishing oblivion There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do For you For you For you Save me from distraction Let me spend my final years with you I treasure this alliance Let me spend my final years with you Take me in your arms and hold me Let me spend my final years with you

I got a man who ain’t treatin’ me right I got a man who ain’t treatin’ me right I got a man who ain’t treatin’ me right I got a man who ain’t treatin’ me right Catch On I got a notion he been drinkin’ agin’ Playing cards with some real bad men Spending all of the money I saved He’s gonna send me to an early grave Catch On What make me be a hard-workin’ wife When he never done a day’s work in his life One day I’m gonna knock him on the scone One day he come home and I gone Catch On I said Catch On

Eleven Years Of Lies 04:36
lyrics

Of my own volition I’ve been spreading sedition From the hills to the city lights With the world dumbed down By media clowns We are overdue for a fight Consume all the imagery Of orchestrated savagery Don’t even scratch the surface Yet if you swallow it whole Let it stain your soul You’re as good as an accomplice I’m no longer surprised Open wide, Eleven years of lies Disregard compassion Simply follow the fashion And intrigue of celebrity worship Parrot the views Of the TV news As though it was you who wrote it I know one good reason For war on Australian soil If you’d care to listen If you want attachment If you need perspective To absorb the human condition I’m no longer surprised Open wide, Eleven years of lies

A Mother's Last Email From Space 04:23
lyrics

Hey Mom, it’s me I got a job on a rocket ship And I’ll be home real soon you’ll see Hey Mom, it’s me When I’ve sent this email to yer Maybe you could email me Say hello to Uncle Tommy and Aunt Mary Lou Did I say I’m getting cravings for drive-through fast food We are flying all over the world And people will remember me for I am a girl Hey Mom, it’s me All the stars are a-twinkaling I’ve saved them all to DVD Hey Mom, it’s me I’m flying home in a rocket ship So save some apple pie for me The guys are playing checkers and watching TV Floating in mid air and defying gravity We’re flying over the land of the free I’m waving down at Jacksonville, Key West and Miami In less than forty minutes I will be home You know that I will call you so stay off the phone Hey Mom, it’s me Just heard a bang in the fuselage and things ain’t looking good for me Hey Mom, it’s me Something’s up with the rocket ship it’s bursting at the seams Hey Mom, it’s me All the guys are a-panickin’ they seem to think we’re history Hey Mom, it’s me I got a job as an astronaut, and I’ve just been blown to smithereens

FRET Sydney, Australia

Fret: Sydney's finest undiscovered band.
Involuntary recluses, empathic outlaws, FRET brings a tangerine scent to the Sydney undergrowth. From the lower Mountains to the rolling waves and north to the Hunter. From the King's X Coke sign to the village of Marricks, the dust settles in an Inner West full-body shuffle. Indie rock / post-punk seduction. Beguiling as the falling leaves. ... more
