How Long? 02:33
lyrics
buy track
“How long have you been in love?” I have to ask myself in this lull I wonder – when will it be enough? When will you entertain the thought of never needing anyone? You – look what you’ve gone and done Tramping from pillar to post so that you’re not alone Not healthy – no, it’s not even close Heart broke too many times without (any) rest just will not work I tried to ascertain What it’s about – I scream and shout! If I learn anything, it’s that I’ll never learn… And now, now that you’re out of love What form of discipline will you employ? I wonder, have you considered above? You need to stop and think and let your Dad take care of it all The tale doesn’t stop right there As it turns out, it all works out! I wear ‘the One ring to rule them all’!

Love My Brother 03:29
lyrics

When I met you I wished to meet your mother Is it wrong to say I wanted to be your lover? Youre hurting me more than anyone other I love you, but you love my brother Why does he get all the girls? Even mom likes him better than me… stupid brother My brother gets a new girl every week Head boy at school and captian of the first XV When he saw you, to him you were just another I love you, but you love my brother Why does he get all the girls? Even mom likes him better than me I’m so hurt, my hair’s dyed black My favourite band’s My Chemical Romance… stupid brother

Dear Diary 04:16
lyrics

Dear Diary – how are you? I had a wave hit me today I was swamped with decay I had collapse inside of me It is itching If I seem to be upset Just don’t judge on the colours left I would raise a little smile If the pain were through It’s as bad as it could get I call this pain-feel “walking death” The title’s grim but true But I’m not dead Not yet I’ve got a fight left in me I won’t go to forever with this on my chest I am mental steel I aim for bliss I was meant to take much more than this When a smile, it brings you pain And your head won’t lift again When you tell a joke it stings But politely You smile to make it fact You get awards for such an act A minute lasts as long as three Your thoughts consume you You become deaf, dumb and blind You dreams look at you and snide I feel black But I’m not dead Not yet I’ve got a passion left in me That will see me triumph and lay this to rest I am mental steel I aim for bliss I am meant to take much more than this

Do I Have To Say Goodbye? 03:39
lyrics
buy track
Now it’s time to move on But, before we say so long Let us reflect back To the days when we took the flack On the town at nights Hell, did we have some fights? And the girls under those lights Boy, was that a sight! So, do I have to say goodbye? Could this just be a lie? What a life this has been With some of the things we have seen So, do I have to say goodbye…? Now on we move Our separate ways With nothing left to say Maybe for that we will pay And return we will all one day And then we’ll have plenty to say Maybe all heading the same way This could happen some day

The Setting Sun 02:36
lyrics
buy track
As this year meets the setting sun Over my shoulder I peer at this one Another chapter in a story bright I’d like to think I got this one right Was it the search for a soulful mate? Was it a Rumble that made it great? I’ve done it before – I’ll do it again Once more ‘round the sun again! I like to think that I got it right I grew an inch more in my lean to the light I found a wife and found a new best friend A simple change that has no end I had a blast in a touring band I got to shake big Buster by the hand Thanks to the Rumble and my new found friends Perhaps we should go ‘round the sun again? This one was best only one month in! There is no doubt now I’m near the end How should I go about beating that? Getting hitched might put me on the right track! So as I head towards the rising sun I peer ahead at the next one I said it once – I’ll say it again Maybe once more ‘round the sun again!

My Lobotomy [Bonus Track] 03:33
lyrics
buy track
My sunlight on your fallen sky My moonbeams, on your setting smile Like brothers, we are meant to be Aggression, forming naturally Forgiveness equals compromise In my other brothers eyes Forgive me as I bring you pain I do it at a personal gain Who’s gonna take you apart and put you back again Pieces missing only then you’ll be my friend Sworn enemies with reasons not to be Lie closer now it’s my Lobotomy I’m watching over passive skies I’m searching for aggressive eyes I’ll push you, and then you’ll push me The feeling, Oh so naturally, Keep pushing, if it takes my life My seven sons to sacrifice, The only hand I give to you Is bloodstained and unshaken too

about

As the second half of 2016 got underway, I was thinking about musical projects to aid in my quest to record everything I had ever written and it caused me to think back on one of my more fun projects: George Michael Jackson! It was a 3-month project covers band devoted to playing only Michael Jackson, Jackson 5, George Michael and Wham covers and it was the most fun ever.

Asking the same bunch if they were keen on a new challenge, Dave (drums), Neil (bass) and Aaron (frontman!) signed up straightaway. Mike (guitar) was unavailable and Jon (keyboard) was moving in a different musical direction at that point in time. We signed up Pete (lead guitars!) and had a 5-piece to rawk!

The challenge was thus: I was going to give them a handful of songs of mine, we'd learn them over a series of weeks, and then live record them for an album. This, then, is that album. Over 3 months of Tuesday nights, we give you this awesome album, full of good music and good laughs (well, we laughed...).

Oh - and the name? South Taita Reserve Grade Presidents XI: that came from a social group we used to belong to that did things like bowling and football and pool... now it stands for RAWK! and/or Roll.
