After the last gig Iwas on a bit of a buzz, so decided I needed to write a new song immediately.
After doing everything I.E. Drums, Bass, Electric & Acoustic guitars , vocals, mixing etc on the last load of demos / songs, I decided I wanted this one stripped back to just acoustic guitar and vocal. I'm finding it fairly easy to write lyrics at them moment as our government are giving me (and everyone else) plenty of fuel to be angry about - one brief recording session later and I have an acoustic song which I fully intend to play at the next gig which is going to be a cracker - The Birds Nest in Deptford as support to the wonderul Decadent Few, and two new bands to me, Mindframe and Bucha Effect.
As for the song - Inspired by a conversation at the last gig when someone said to me that they agreed with what was going on and it wouldn't affect them as they were working part time and the government won';t touch them. I laughed and told them not to be so naieve and lo and behold four weeks later they govt are going to sanction part time workers, I just told him to go home and watch his TV and go back to sleep. And that is what this one is called.
Please feel free to download this or any other track from the soundcloud page. If you use this in a radio show or podcast - please credit me and and let me know - Thanks Russ Crimewave.
Go Back To Sleep
No need for a false flag operation
Dont need one on a sleeping nation
They want to keep us dumb and ignorant
Try to manufacture our consent
Do exactly what the governments say
Go back to sleep everything is ok
No facts required, No actual proof
Lies always travel, Faster than truth
They wanna chip us to make us dumb
Make us subserviant, Everyone
Bent to their will, Diminish and divide
Each identical, Just as advertised
No evidence needed in the state of denial
We all stand accused, All on trial
Told what to do, told what to say
Told who to vote for, Who to obey
No need for a false flag operation
Dont need one on a sleeping nation
They want to keep us dumb and ignorant
Try to manufacture our consent
Do exactly what the governments say
Go back to sleep everything is ok
No facts required, No actual proof

Bent to their will, Diminish and divide
Each identical, Just as advertised
No evidence needed in the state of denial
We all stand accused, All on trial
Told what to do, told what to say
Told who to vote for, Who to obey
