Song of the Day
Victory is empty
There are lessons in defeat
But we’re dead from the waist down
We are sleeping on our feet
We stole the songs from birds in trees
Bought us time on easy street
Now our paths, they never meet
We chose to court and flatter greed, ego disposability
I caught a glimpse, and it’s not me
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Or else we’re done for
And we’re D from the W down

I deliberately missed out big name bands like Oasis and Blur in favour of the songs that got me through the horrors of school, the woes of exams and many a night doing homework listening to the Evening Session on Radio 1. Oh and that awful 4 year period of insomnia.
