lyrics

Burning

When Billy was small he was hooked on Defender
Escaping to hyperspace far from a father
Who lived like a madman and who loved like the weather
Loves those without a shelter

Billy’s estate was a liberal’s nightmare
They feel for the need but none of them lived there
They plead for a change in the detail of welfare
In a system that’s not fair

Oh, it’s time to go, turn on the lights and the radio
Through darkness, rain, through wind and snow
Burn the memories, burn the road

Billy grew up from the high scores to draw
And the thrills and the spills with his mates in a four door
Escaping was easy and all that he lived for
What more could he live for?

Everything seemed fair game in his eyes
Scavenged from those outraged and surprised
About the law of the jungle and the truth of the liars
They were jackals for the lions

Fly through the new towns, free at night
With a buzzing brain and a laser sight
Cat and mouse, a flashing blue light
Straight ahead, they’re right behind
The games too easy, Billy’s up an alley
Like an arrow, the sirens follow
Screaming like there’s no tomorrow
Swerve around, a sudden thud
Another screen that’s dripping blood

about

Slow Faction image

Slow Faction London, UK

“Slow Faction is a 1st generation-influenced punk band with a real London 77 sound. The aim of Slow Faction is simple – to make the music they want to hear; politically-charged songs with big hooks and choruses, reminiscent of the 1st wave of British punk. Slow Faction’s live sound has been described as a cross between The Clash and The Buzzcocks.” ... more
