I was born mid Beatles After I was a fetus I entered this world Amid fanfare and herald I was a child when the hippies re-invented the cities Re-made the country Re-made the Culture I was born mid Beatles After I was a fetus I entered this world Amid fanfare and herald

Endgame 03:55
When we left the airport we were into the vibe We were easily mistaken for a nomadic tribe I never thought I’d ever see the communists fall We made it all the way to the Chinese wall I couldn't see the end ‘cos I was unaware I couldn't see the light ‘cos I was unaware I didn't feel the fight ‘cos I was unaware Never felt the same ‘cos I was unaware Crossing through the border into Kazakhstan We took a load of stuff, I was a happy man Taking in the scenery it was sublime But I got the notion I’m a philistine Coming through the sphere of an android dream Randomly selecting things to make me feel clean Gotta find a radio to make communication When I get home I want some good remuneration I couldn't see the end ‘cos I was unaware I couldn't see the light ‘cos I was unaware I didn't feel the fight ‘cos I was unaware Never felt the same ‘cos I was unaware. Oh no. Walking through the fields you know we didn’t care Going through the mountains we were in despair Finally a station so we climb aboard a train Looking for the airport ‘cos we want to get a plane I couldn't see the end ‘cos I was unaware I couldn't see the light ‘cos I was unaware I didn't feel the fight ‘cos I was unaware Never felt the same ‘cos I was unaware

I'm a travelling man Moving through space and time Good things happen Sometimes they're sublime I'm riding on Another dimension That is far too weird In between the lines of convention. - All relative yeah Some people fight Some just run Some people have a bad time Some others have fun Accuse me for what I believe But what have I done? We're all just moving along While we go round the sun

Tom Cruise is coming to get you Tom Cruise is coming to get you They're not gonna forget you They're gonna come and hound you Tom Cruise is coming to get you So is John Travolta I think that it's revolting Lock up your doors and be bolting Tom Cruise is coming to get you I think that he's quite scary Even though he's not hairy I stand on the end platform of the tram and am completely unsure of my footing in this world, in this town, in my family. Not even casually could I indicate any claims that I might rightly advance in any direction. I have not even any defense to offer for standing on this platform, holding on to this strap, letting myself be carried along by this tram, nor for the people who give way to the tram or walk quietly along or stand gazing into shopwindows. Nobody asks me to put up a defense, indeed, but that is irrelevant. (Reading from Franz Kafka - On the Tram) Tom Cruise is coming to get you Tom Cruise is coming to get you They're not gonna forget you They're gonna come and hound you Tom Cruise is coming to get you So is John Travolta I think that it's revolting Lock up your doors and be bolting Tom Cruise is coming to get you Tom Cruise is coming to get you I think that he's quite scary Even though he's not hairy... Oh Scientology scares me Scientology scares me Scientology scares me Scientology scares me..............................................

We saw the people in chains - We saw the people lose brains We did our best to set them free - but it was all in vain The ideology was - designed to take our freedom Then we built our knowledge, but - The old refused to give They were the ones with the power And they ruled to used it Now we're all paying the price for their greed - for their greed We couldn't see the future - we only saw the past It was a special journey - we knew it wouldn't last They said it was the horsemen - that rode across the land But I never did believe them - it was done by their own hand They were the ones with the power And they ruled to used it Now we're all paying the price for their greed - for their greed So now you've got your money - and now you've got your land What can you now inherit - the line's drawn in the sand There's nothing left to go for - you've taken all you can God bless your final journey - I hope you meet your man You were the ones with the power And you ruled to used it Now we're all paying the price for your greed - x4 - for your greed

Walking through the park We’re gonna find a place to sit down Sun is in the sky An autumn yellow making us frown Tummy’s finished tickling And it’s going to my head now Autumn leaves are falling They are settling on the ground now Apple streets are paved In cinnamon and green sultanas Through the fields of wheat The shining yellow grass it wavers Coming out the shadows I am seeing my nirvana It’s a kinda scary now I’m wearing my pyjamas Trees are waving wildly They are looking like a Van Gough Floating on my feet It’s like I haven’t got a body When’s it gonna end I tell you I’m a kinda happy I am now suspended In a kind of animation Fields of vivid green The sky is shining pretty bright now Forming into shapes Of geometric simplicity Running through the fields We just cannot control our laughter Over the horizon and Into the ever after

about

This is the best of the last 18 months arranged into some sort of cohesive fashion. All of this work has been inspired by my wonderful soundcloud journey and the friends I have made on the way. Hope you enjoy.
Love Peace Chris
