open up my beagle eyes

act of war

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

They want to break us, humiliate us

But we will play their game, yeah

We can't afford to open the door to

This kind of ill behaviour

Might seem a little thing, hardly worth mentioning

But if we give an inch, they'll take a mile

They're aiming for the heart

To even up the score

This is a bridge too far

This is an act of war

They tried in Saltash, they felt the backlash

We made them close their doors, yeah

We've got no takers for these steak fakers

Make no mistake we're serious

We are the masters, we are pasty baking bastards

And if they want a fight, well, we'll give them hell

They're aiming for the heart

To even up the score

This is a bridge too far

This is an act of war

So now it's Truro, well that’s your funeral

It's going down the same way

Been here for centuries, we've got long memories

And we will not forgive them

It's not just pastry goods, these are our livelihoods

It's not just business it's our way of life as well

They're aiming for the heart

To even up the score

This is a bridge too far

This is an act of war

We have to draw the line

And stand against the tide

We're going to take them down

We'll watch them as they drown

They're aiming for the heart

To even up the score

A bridge too far, an act of

War

be happy

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

I'm watching a friend of mine

She's dying and I can't do anything

She knows that she's checking out

I know that one day soon I'll miss her

But I will remember this:

Her smile and her fuck you mentality

And when I go all I wish

Is I can be strong to the end yeah

We are born to

Die, we are beautiful creatures

Win or lose, so

What? Be happy for the things you've

Got

We're looking for paradise

We all want a slice of the easy life

But sometimes it gets you down

You're stuck on the wheel going round and round

And when you are feeling low

Remember to let go and look around

The best things in life are free

Or that's what they tell me, believe it

Wrong or right, you

Choose, and there's no way of knowing

Win or lose, so

What? Be happy for the things you've

Got

I'm watching a friend disappear

And one day I am sure I will follow her

But I will remember this:

Her smile and her filthy laugh yeah

We are born to

Die, we are beautiful creatures

Life is short but

Smile, takes less muscles than frowning

Don’t give up the

Fight, even if you are drowning

Win or lose, so what

Be happy for the things you've got

beautiful people

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

When I was born the midwife cried

She couldn't quite believe her eyes, well we

Can't all be Keanu Reeves, or

Beauty Queens, and kids are mean, I tell you

School was hell, I could not wait for the

Bell to ring and to hit that gate

There's no point in asking why,

U-G-L-Y, I ain't go no alibi

Skin deep, tough

Shit, I just make the best of it I give

No fucks, I don't care that I was

Back of the line when they gave out the looks

But it's hard to take when you comprehend you will

Never be one of the beautiful people

Slam the door in your fucking face, you can

Never be one of the beautiful people

Well I've tried, and I've learned

You just can't polish a turd and I

Know, that I don't belong with the

Beautiful people, beautiful people like

You

So I tried to hide away, I've got

Nice legs, it's a shame about the boat race, a

Face for radio, no Stevie Nicks, I've been

Beaten black and blue with the ugly stick

And I watch, but I don't understand, the

Celebrity shows with the perfectly tanned with their

Perfect teeth and their perfect houses their

Perfect lives with their perfect spouses it's

Skin deep, such a

Waste, a nice smile doesn't buy you taste and it's

Shallow, there's no meaning in

Selling your pictures to Hello! Magazine but it's

Hard to take when you comprehend you will

Never be one of the beautiful people

Slam the door in your fucking face, you will

Never be one of the beautiful people

Well I've tried, and I've learned

You just can't polish a turd and I

Know, that I don't belong with the

Beautiful people, beautiful people like

You

But I've found my tribe now, I've got my fam and I

Know who they are, they are fucking amazing, I

Know they accept me the way that I am, they're

Beautiful people in all kinds of ways

But not beautiful people like

You

But not beautiful people like

You I've tried, but I've learned

You just can't polish a turd and I

Know, but I just don't care I will

Never be one of the, beautiful people

communication breakdown

feat. Becky Kelly on lead vocal

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

Here we go, off again, did I say something

Really stupid, not for the first time, I never

Learn, I shoot my mouth off and you

Burn, I didn't mean to cause you pain

We never talk about it, we soldier

On, we hide the cuts pretend we're strong

Didn't mean to be cruel, I'm a fool it is

Pretty obvious, I get obnoxious, when I get

Drunk, a lack of judgement once

Again, I didn't mean to cause you pain

We never talk about it, you shut the

Door, I build a bridge, you build a wall

And who's to blame? It comes from

Misconnection, alienation

It's such a shame, no need for

This communication breakdown

I can see how it seems, so I beg you for

Your forgiveness, a messy business, I understand

Why you would hesitate to

Take, another chance on me again

We never talk about it, we close our

Eyes, so this should come as no surprise

Communication is the key

If there is hope for you and me

Lying here in our bed, I want to touch you but

You’re a fortress, impregnable and cold as

Steel, I search for gaps but I can't

Feel, a way to get inside your armour

Could we just talk about it? Just let me

In, open the drawbridge let's begin again

And who's to blame? It comes from

Misconception, alienation

It's such a shame, no need for

This communication breakdown

We need to talk about it, we need to

Find a way to make it to the other side

We need to talk about it, we need a

Plan, we need to give ourselves a second chance

We need to talk about it

dogshit uplands

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

(Well) I dunno I dunno I dunno but

I've been told the future's looking

Supercharged and ubersexy

Welcome to the land of opportunity

But it feels to me like we're

Stuck in reverse, going backwards quickly

Not a lot of fun, where's my Unicorn gone?

Getting sick of living in the dogshit uplands

Living in the dogshit uplands

And what they say and what they mean

Are not exactly what they seem

It's in the spaces inbetween

Sometimes you need to read between the

Lines

So let's count our blessings, 123, we've got

Blue passports and sovereignty and the

Crown on our pint pots, give me three cheers, well it's

Something you can look at while you're crying in your

Beer

Living in the dogshit uplands

And what they say and what they mean

Are not exactly what they seem

It's in the spaces inbetween

Sometimes you need to read between the

Lines

And sovereignty is a double edged sword, swapped the

Bureaucrats in Brussels for the wankers in the Lords and the

House of Commons is a den of iniquity

Fuckers making millions out of dodgy PPE

And what they say and what they mean

Are not exactly what they seem

It's in the spaces inbetween

Sometimes you need to read between the

Lines, so watch your step in the dogshit

Uplands, they'll steal your rights in the dogshit

Uplands, we'll pay the price for the dogshit

Uplands, with a lost generatiom

With a fractured Nation

And I hate to say that we told you so but we

Told you so

And what they say and what they mean

Are not exactly what they seem

It's in the spaces inbetween

Sometimes you need to read between the

Lines, so watch your step in the dogshit

Uplands, they'll steal your rights in the dogshit

Uplands, we'll pay the price for the dogshit

Uplands, and just remember next time you

Vote, that what they say and what they mean

Are not exactly what they seem

It's in the spaces inbetween

Sometimes you need to read between the

Lies

mind bleach

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

Some days I wish that I never met you

Some days I want you to go away

Some days I hurt if I just don't see you

Some days I smile if I see your face

You pick me up, you bring me down

You spin me round then you disappear

You tell me: how the hell am I

Supposed to

Understand just where we stand? It's

Mad, and I don't know

Why, I can't think straight

Though I try and

Try, I just can't

Get you off my

Mind

I wish that I could forget about you

Go back in time and obliterate

I'd bleach my mind to remove the problem

Gouge out my eyes to be super safe

I just can't stand this up and down

You heat me up then you leave me cold

You tell me: how the hell am I

Supposed to

Understand just where we stand? It's

Cruel and I don't know

Why, I can't stop this

Though I try and

Try, I just can't

Get you off my

Mind

If there's a god maybe he can hear me?

I hope that he will receive my plea

It's not like I'm asking for a lambor-

Ghini, should be an easy thing to achieve

I need mind bleach, I want to clean

My brain then start it back up again

I need mind bleach, to disinfect

My brain then start it back up again

I need mind bleach, I have to purge

My brain of all of your memories

I need mind bleach, I want to clean

My brain press

Control Alt Delete and start again

I just don't know

Why, you won't leave me

Though I try and

Try, I just can't

Get you off my

Mind

rocinante

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

Staring at the sky, looking

For your vapour trail

Coming in to land, with

Avenging angels hanging on your

Tail, it's the consequence of a

Sequence of events

I am listening for the

Sound of sirens but in my defense

I'm burning down the house

I'm pumping up the volume

I'm betting everything

That this is not illusion

I always thought you would never see

I only dreamed we could ever be

I always hoped one day you and

I could be more than just passers

I will never learn, I've been

Hit by cupid's dart

Groove is in the heart, it's an

Arrow wound that keeps on bleeding

Out, there must be a cure, give me

Stitches make me whole

Spin the world around take me

Dancing let me see your soul and

I'll be your biggest fan

I'll be your Rocinante

I'll take you anywhere

If you just say you want me

I always thought you would never see

I only dreamed we could ever be

I always hoped one day you and

I could be more than just passers

Staring at the sky, looking

For your vapour trail

Coming in to land, with

Avenging angels hanging on your

Tail, it's the consequence of a

Sequence of events

I am listening for the

Sound of sirens but in my defense

I'm burning down the house

I'm pumping up the volume

I'm betting everything

That this is not illusion

I'll be your biggest fan

I'll be your Rocinante

I'll take you anywhere

If you just say you want me

I always thought you would never see

I only dreamed we could ever be

I always hoped one day you and

I could be more than just passers

I always thought you would never see

I only dreamed we could ever be

I always hoped that you and me

Could be more than passers

six feet underground

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

feat. Dread Pirate and RyLi on harmony vocals

Another solar year, and nothing

Happens here, we pass through the nadir

Another New Year's Eve, we try hard

To believe that this time we'll succeed

We're living on a prayer, we hope

Despite the proof, the inconvenient truth

But hope is all there is, we play the

Optimist, or sink in the abyss

We think that we're alive, keep going

To survive, sleep, eat and pass the time

We're spinning round and round, we fill our

Days with sound, we're six feet underground

I'm waiting for the sun, to show it’s

Face again, I hate the cold and rain

I'm holding on to dreams, to pleasant

Memories, to parties in a field

Won't let it bring me down, what’s the

Alternative? It's do or die you see

So focus on the path that brings you

Out of this, to better times ahead

Another solar year, and nothing

Happens here, we pass through the nadir

Another New Year's Eve, we try hard

To believe that this time we'll succeed

We're living on a prayer, we hope

Despite the proof, the inconvenient truth

But hope is all there is, we play the

Optimist, or sink in the abyss

We think that we're alive, keep going

To survive, sleep, eat and pass the time

We're spinning round and round, we fill our

Days with sound, we're six feet underground

We're six feet underground

ripcord

From the album open up my beagle eyes, August 2023

feat. Luke Austin on some of the guitar parts

Cursing my luck again

Feeling the sting

Forcing a smile again

Faking a grin

This is the final dance

Hard times ahead

Straight for the jugular

Knocking you dead

Going down, we're set for disaster

Going round and round ever faster

You and me we don't pull together

You and me could do so much better

I can't take no more, life is too damn short

I won't fake no more, on a road to nowhere

Now I see the light, I can put this right

And I realise, I must pull the ripcord now

This is the tipping point

This is the day

Feeling the energy

Riding the wave

You are the one I want

You are the prize

I'd be your Romeo

I'd treat you right

Come on round, come on now and try me

Come on down, the past is behind me

You and me we should be together

You and me could be so much better

I can't take no more, life is too damn short

I won't fake no more, on a road to nowhere

Now I see the light, I can put this right

And I realise, I must pull the ripcord now

You could be anything

Could you be mine?

It's just a step away

Crossing that line

Take a chance, let's do this together

Second chance to make something better

You and me, it's all that we need now

You and me against all the world now

I can't take no more, life is too damn short

I won't fake no more, on a road to nowhere

Now I see the light, I can put this right

And I realise, I must pull the ripcord now

I must pull the ripcord now
