Freeway
Words and music by Steve Campbell
I met a boy with a bomb in his head
He said that he was off to see his girlfriend
In his mind’s eye
Take a space and put some people in,
Wait a while, wait for the potential
Of the moment.
Chorus:
You can get anything you want
You can get anything that you want
You can get anything you want
Riding on a Freeway.
Take a look at a sunset sky
Think how the colours would be in reverse
In your mind’s eye
I met a boy with a bomb in his head,
He said that we was off to be the maker
In his mind’s eye
Chorus
Take a look at all the blood in this place
Take a look at all the people with potential
You could find a girl, buy something real special
Riding on a Freeway.
Chorus
I met a boy with nothing in his head
Chorus

Fathom
Words and music Steve Campbell
Look outside for a little bitty boy,
it’s a stupid big world with a scar on the land
And too many times you kill your old man
In the back of your head and you don’t understand
I cannot fathom the depth of your sorrow.
Take you to your house find the photograph
And something breaks down the back
And you know sometimes you didn’t speak for a month
And we all shut down took a drink for your son
In the pass-time trade, where the wagers are high
You found your slot, and took to the heights
In the killing fields in the back of your head,
Take a long black drink and shiver in bed.
I cannot fathom the depth of your sorrow.
Upside down, round and about
Get the feeling slammed in, get the feeling slammed out
Inside out, you’re full of doubt,
And the walls cave in for the black of your sin
I see red, you see black
Tear your skin, alas and alack
Up the stairs, into your head
And the walls cave in our sins are un-said
Toll breaks, church bells
South wind, sex sells
And the rain pours in, the rain pours down
And the days float by and the rain pours down
I cannot fathom the depth of your sorrow.
Rain pours in, rain pours down, days float by, rain pours down

BABY OF THE FAMILY - Words /music L.Cameron
"Baby of the family". Tell you what it means to me?
All love and security and never really being free.
Brother to me right from the start
There's no time without you here.
What we share keeps us apart
Chromosomes to keep us near, keep us near.
Orphan babies might be sad
Cos they got no mum or dad
But you know it ain't all bad
Being on your own.
You were there when time began.
Can't you see what I am?
There's no one that loves me so
All I am is what you know.
"Baby of the family". Tell you what it means to me
All love and security and never really being free.
Baby of the family all love and security
Right inside the space that's mine
Family's the bottom line.
You were there when time began.
Can't you see who I am?
There's no one who loves me so
All I am is what you know
What you…..
I'm just giving a little bit of a little bit, of a little bit……….

CRY - words music L.Cameron
I wished for the Sun. The Sun did come
It burned me and it was here to stay
And I wished for the rain. The rain it came
And washed my evidence away, evidence away.
Nobody hears me crying, nobody hears me cry.
How could I tell anybody
everything that I've loved is a lie?
Haven't we got a nasty little sense of humour.
I don't know the reason why
Nobody hears me crying, nobody hears me cry.
Cry
Cry
I wanted the best and all the rest
and what I got was someone's discarded ideas
And I wanted to be close but what I rubbed up against
Was cold and full of fear full of pain and fear.
CHORUS
I wanted to smile but all I got was snickering and jeers
And I wanted to cry to see if I could feel it
But all I got was tears, wet and salty tears.

The Wire
Word and music by Genevieve Maynard
Love love love.
Saw you coming into to town, you’re crawling on the wire
Thought you’d drop a name or two cos you’ve got nothing
Crawl, you crawled a week or two it didn’t get you higher
Cos you’ve got nothing, you’ve got no-one
Crawl crawl baby, walk, you walk a long way
Smile, you smiled a country mile you kissed so many babies
Cos you’ve got nothing, you’ve got no-one to love love love
Down to the wire
See you’ve got nothing
Down to the wire
Burn your bridges
Love love love
Crawl baby, walk, you walk a long way
You can make it all right, make it for one night
Saw you coming into to town, you’re crawling on the wire
Thought you’d drop a name or two cos you’ve got nothing
Kiss you bought a kiss or two dealing with a buyer
Cos you’ve got nothing, you’ve got no-one
Crawl crawl baby, walk, you walk a long way
Dance you danced your life away it didn’t get you higher
You’ve got nothing, you’ve got no-one to love love love

Money
Words and music by Genevieve Maynard.
One foot in front of the other up to the top of the stairs
There’s nobody in there but hell honey, I know you don’t care
You say what what you wanna say
I know you’re gonna say it to me anyway
But it’s a damn strange way you make your money
Whips and chains and sticks and canes to make him sore
And somebody out there sees the pleasure and the pain
And pays for it all
You say what what you wanna say
I know you’re gonna say it to me anyway
But it’s a damn strange way you make your money
I guess you’ll bend where you’re gonna bend
And you’ll spend what you gotta spend
But it’s a damn strange way you make your money
Your pocket’s full of stones and you take them all out
And you do a little dance and you scatter them about
And you’ve got your money and you’re going away
Well I hope you have a nice damn holiday
Your boy on the side is a cause for pride, I hope you don’t fall
Stick your hands down his pants does he see the romance, is it sexual at all?
Bite him and beat him his eyes are entreating you to care
He better learn his lesson he’ll get no love from your dollar sign stare

Ever Man for Himself.
Words and music Steve Campbell
The street lights come on
One by one
Get in that thing and drive downtown
Don’t want to be anywhere else anyhow
They want you to fight,
They want you to buy it
And when you don’t like it
You’ll find whoever you can now
You can do what you want now
Go by yourself you won’t get very far.
Go where you want now
By yourself, with yourself, for yourself
Every man for himself.
Some things are so small
So many things are so small
The leaves on the trees
The things in the holes in the leaves on the trees
The things in the cracks in the sand on the beach
The things in the bubbles in the foam on the sea
The things in our minds when we’re down on the street
We want the whole world like a kid wants a treat.
You can do what you want now
Go by yourself you won’t get very far.
You can go where you want now
By yourself, with yourself, for yourself
Every man for himself.

CAN WE GO NOW? Original song and lyrics by Lea Cameron.
Nah na na nah nah - Can we go, can we go now?
There's no other place for me to go when I feel like this
Time's just something standing in my way
When it's my Baby's touch I miss.
My Baby says all I gotta do is just be myself - do what I want to.
I've been me now nearly all my life so how can I be someone else?
I do what I want to.
Nah na na na na can we go can we go now?
When there's no other place for me to be
But by my Baby's side
I still find myself somewhere else.
Guess I'll never be satisfied.
My Baby says ' Don't you worry 'bout it 'cos I'm right here, at home.'
That's just one more thing to make me hurry when I'm walking home alone
And looking over my shoulder.
We're all packed up and set to go
Can we go, can we go now?
There's something my Baby needs to know.
Can we go can we go now?

MONKEY RIDE. Words & music Lea Cameron.
Take a step inside join the monkey on his ride
See the monkey spin watch him go around again
I know how to read in between lines
Know all the dangers and warning signs
But I can't read minds
so why would I Know what to say?
I know vigilance can be so taxing but
I never know when you're acting.
Call me lazy but I feel like relaxing
Just for today.
I know I can be strong.
I can't remember just what I've done wrong.
When I think the worst I feel bad
And I say if you say so.
I've got words that can be cold as ice
Verbs and phrases like thorns and spikes
But to you I'm so nice
So I don't understand your dismay.
Never wanted to see where I'd end up.
I'm not the storm in your teacup
But that's not for me to say
And there's no price that you have to pay.
I know I can be wrong.
I can't remember just how to be strong
When I think of bad I feel worse
And I say if you say so.
Never thought I'd have to second guess you.
Your honesty's a scapular that will not protect you.
The moral code, a safety catch, your right to feel better.
I say you are unreasonable
You say I am threatened.
The threat we listen for when we hear' I love you.'
I never asked any such thing of you.
I say, if you say so.
I say, if you say so.
