#WeAreMatador

Lyrics
Alone she stands

Strong as any man

The world at her feet

But they watch her every beat


She is Mata-Mata-Matador 

Mata-Mata-Matador 

Soul so strong, you will applaud

Mata-Mata-Matador!


They may laugh 

They may rage

They may even turn away

This is what we have to do

To be as free as you


For we are Mata-Mata-Matador

Mata-Mata-Matador! 

Souls so strong, you will applaud

We are Mata-Mata-Matador! 


Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo 

Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo oo 

Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo oo

Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo 

Oo, ah ah ah ah ah

Ah, ah ah ah ah ah

La, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la 


So defiant we will stand

Stronger hand in hand

And together we will break

This old, cold heart of hate


For we are Mata-Mata-Matador (Matador)

Mata-Mata-Matador

Souls so strong, you will applaud

Mata-Mata-Matador


Mata-Mata-Matador! 

Mata-Mata-Matador

Souls so strong, you will applaud 

We are Mata-Mata-Matador!

Hotel Landifornia

She Is Matador

Shipwrecked in a new land, but Hotel Landifornia, will it let me stay?

Lyrics:
Hot, hot heat

Silver coast at your feet

Dunes stretched out to the horizon 

Shipwrecked here

With no plans to meet 

Painted dusty white horses


Like that song that I use to sing

My first karaoke 

Your dreams never turn, the way you think they will

Or maybe you just didn't notice


Hotel Landifornia

I really do adore you

But Hotel Landifornia

Don't think I can afford ya


Sounded so paradise to me 

The girl struck down in her own weather 

I know, I know, I know you can't give me everything

But I'll try and ride your waves if you let me


Your pines, your pines will let me breathe again

And I, and I, and I will give you what I can

To love, to love, to love your lovely land

Your land, your land, your Landifornia 



Hotel Landifornia

I really do adore you

But Hotel Landifornia

Don't think I can afford you

Hotel Landifornia

Hotel Landifornia

Hotel Landifornia

Please let me stay

Please let me stay

Will you let me stay?

Oh please let me stay

All instruments and vocals - Fuzzy Jones

Mastered by Carl Rosamund RRS Music & Media, UK

This track was written by my students on The Mighty Write songwriting course 2021, for Cloth Cat Leeds, UK. It was a remote collaboration, inspired by stuff and things we explored throughout the 10 weeks. It's a fab bit of work, from young peeps aged between 11-18 years of age. I played the instruments and did the vocals, but Lily and Elijah were part of the whole process of composing and arranging from the very beginning and it's their ideas that made it happen. Nice work!

The Great Pause is a playfully political cosmic folk pop treat! Hear the birth of Fuzzy's new sound - inspired by Lockdown 2020. Written, recorded and produced in Fuzzy’s makeshift home sofa-studio throughout May 2020. It marks a strange moment in time - comfortable but uncomfortable, right, but oh so wrong!
