Mental Space Invader's Ball

These are my thoughts As I gaze into the fish tank Cos with a knife at my back They made me walk the plank And the Capn's none too pleased Man he's looking pretty mean And there ain't much time before I'm in the drink Well this This was my choice of career To conquer the world and be A buccaneer With my hands steeped in treasure Aw my heart would fill with pleasure But now it's aching more More than you think See I couldn't tell Heaven from hell When she put me under her spell Well just my luck The lightning struck And the whole ship was ablaze Now if you don't seize your chance Then nothing happens And your indifference denies Your manumission The night I kissed the captain's wife It took years off of my life We drank some grog And then we snogged And it made me feel all right See I couldn't tell Heaven from hell When she put me under her spell Well just my luck The lightning struck And my heart was set ablaze And now I'm out at sea I'm all out at sea All out at sea Yeah I'm out at sea I'm all out at sea All out at sea I'm out at sea I'm all out at sea

Ghost Train 03:12
All aboard the ghost train I feel an ill wind blowing Can't make out what you're trying to say But I can see where all this is going See the crow he feels hard done By the fox that's eating the cheese Says before the setting sun Mr Fox be on his knees Maybe you shouldn't read into nothing When you know well it doesn't exist Insecurity's the demon Checking in on the narcissist See the signals all along the line Those that you failed to recognise The future that you had in mind Rivers of tears it never stops at paradise There she goes again Your left riding on a ghost train That just goes round and round And makes no sound All aboard the ghost train It's time I hear you calling We're all about to go insane I tell you once this train gets going You never really listen You're just too busy, busy being you Always have a valid reason For all the foolish things that you do Ghost past another station I guess this train ain't stopping for no one Much to your chagrin The journey's over before it's begun See the signals all along the line Those that you failed to recognise The future that you had in mind Rivers of tears, it never stops at paradise There she goes again Your left riding on a ghost train That just goes round and round And makes no sound That just goes round and round And makes no sound That just goes round and round And makes no sound Ghost Train

Arise the sergeant shook me He said son Take this coin And leave your life behind And as we marched The rhythm of the drums And all the rum we need To numb their hearts and minds And so I'm off to fight a war I toss their coin to see If I come out alive I see your eyes are pleading Begging me what for They said just do your duty And don't reason why Crystal ball lights Float around the room Entwine our lives For just another day At their tables Generals toast impending doom Whilst at abandon We dance the night away And we still had so much left to say As I held you so close I could feel your heart But you know full well They have to have their day Watch the drunken generals Tear our worlds apart The captain's orders came in to attack We're in the first wave at the break of day Now I know I won't be coming back I remember How we danced the night away And we still had so much left to give But your drunken generals Took it all away Now a star shines bright For this short life I lived And marks the sweet time When we danced the night away

The evening sun Bleeds in my kitchen My head is blue But everything is pink It's said and done So stop your bitching Clear them bottles Throw the dishes in the sink I don't know why Bound by their rules I bet my life You live the rest of your in fear A buried child Leaves but a fool They'll push him under 'Til he finally disappears There's some that say Time changes nothing Oh but nothing stays the same And then someday When you're forgotten Only nothing will remain Now you've become My Saint Sebastian Through the hard times You and I would agree They draw their bow In your direction Cos that's the only way they know To set you free There's some that say Time changes nothing Oh but nothing stays the same And then someday When you're forgotten Only nothing will remain So tonight For you I grieve For so long You were a part of me Don't know why You have to leave Cos without you There's just nothing left to see Without you There's just nothing left to see

The Piseógs LM, Ireland

The Piseógs are (clearly) a non-conformist ska band. Their sound tips its cap to Jamaican ska and rocksteady, adding some other flavours in the mix.
