lyrics

Working on a song
Set you back on course
Feed it through you veins
Rid you of remorse
So step out in the hall
With your thumbs on the chest
Elbows in the air
Dressed up in your best
Celebration of a one way dance
Celebration of a one way dance
Trying to get involved
Hold a grip on what’s wrong
Get some riddle solved
Bury negative thoughts
Watch your kneecaps tremble
As U listen to my song
And the hours come piling in
The hours of sleeping yourself strong
By the way do you know whet the mean by peace
Celebration of a one way dance
Always thought they’d get U in a trance
Thought you’d work on your home
But U work on yourself instead
Pay few xtra dollars
U can even it do it in bed
Priest ain’t around no more
And your grandma’s kinda dead
Cash can open up ears
but they will end turning red
My song can work you wonders
No need to say a word
Get yo body ready
Dance like a paradise bird
Let me introduce you to your future where everything ain’t quite as it used to where everyone lies ready to die while the government flies right by like a
vulture where daily routine is a daily routine new movie every week but I ain’t seen a new scene all shit’s the same yet who’s to blame people would doanything to get the fame one path one step one wiggle one dance one track one tape one rhythm one sample U wanna be a cool kid oh that simple get yourself some Yeezies and a bif of Bape too one mistake and ur the Ugly Duckling there must be something wrong with this system so if your pissed of against the nation join us all in a celebration

Gerard Watkins Paris, France

I was lucky to meet the right people to record this album. Called them the Sleeping Beauties, cos that’s how the music sounded like. The music I play is rock and roll. Songs performed by drums, bass, guitars and guests. That’s the music I stick with, because it has always been there for me. Songs are about life in the modern world, can’t really think of anything else to sing about. ... more
