wouldn't be cricket by oldrottenhead

[Oldrottenhead]

got out my woolies strat, it has been ignored for too long.

they're messing with our minds again
by bending space and time
deception by omission
gotta tow the party line
feeding us distraction
because ignorance is bliss
we can't be thinking for ourselves
that just wouldn't be cricket

the sun it never sets
on the lands where we hold sway
the past the present future
it will always be that way

proposing an alternative
will not be entertained
the radical is ridiculed
dismissed ignored insane
they'll do just what we tell them to
they'll believe in anything
but they can't be thinking for themselves
that just wouldn't be cricket

the rules are made for followers
we leaders can ignore
and we can't be having commoners
trying to come through our front door
they have to learn and know their place
to listen not to speak
they can't be thinking for themselves
that just wouldn't be cricket

wouldn't be cricket

Very nice. On my second listen...

I don't think I ever heard the expression, "wouldn't be cricket." I love it.

[Oldrottenhead]

definition 

cricket: fair play; honorable conduct:
It wouldn't be cricket to look at his cards.

[Redler]

Really fine song! Loved the clear tones of your guitar! Did you record this on MBR?

Well done James!

[Oldrottenhead]

Recorded on the br800 tho plugged microbr into line in for vocals

[Groundy]

Nice one James, So professional,
Love The Woolies Strat 
I thought I was the only one that used the Mbr through the br800 for vox.
Well done to you.....

Sounds really great and vocals are stellar as usual !!!

[Burtog]

a great track, loved it, you really should do more guitar stuff, worked well, a bit Marr-esque in parts I thought.
