Name: Fisherman Grey (Bags Is Back) by Badgeman Brown
Duration: 2 min 11 s
Description: thanks Tony. Fisherman Grey misses you bruv. 'There's a ham in my shoe... let's eat it.' I guess that's the only really true statement there is in the world really. RIP Barney Sayles. This story couldn't have happened without you my ice white brother. Bloody miss you too.

I cannot imagine what it must be like to lose someone suddenly from a random act of violence. I wrote this song from the perspective of someone who is grieving such a loss. Having a moment of peace only to be interrupted again by the grief which turns to anger and then some resolve at the end. Unfortunately I just heard about another shooting by another scumbag stranger. God bless the victims and their families. I wish the inspiration for this song never occurred, but it has.

“There are 400 million guns in this country.”  “If guns made us safer, we’d be the safest nation in the world.” - Shannon Watts
...but not a sound from anyone but Matthew...youtu.be/cJOw0XUyTQs
mass shootings is the biggest problem in the USA, even Ozzy knows it www.yahoo.com/entertainment/ozzy…ass-171450904.html
but for some reason our political "leaders" do nothing about it and it just keeps happening.

It's almost delightful despite the spiteful unrightful I write to tell you this hell you can fight in here when the worst sin sees light of day here and turns here to what no words have been invented to write here we can't bear or express clear the sight the sound the pain the feeling of despair it's beyond fear way out there a sound so far away that I can barely hear but your face dear its still here its all that I can see and now everywhere dear you're all I care every word swear is not enough to express all of my anger cause of a stranger scumbag stranger oh yeah right this hell I can fight

This hell I can fight

Originally the lyrics were from a poem by Lord Byron. There were only three verses, I wrote the rest and the music to it, produced and performed it.

by the light

so we’ll go no more a’roving
so late into the night
though the heart be still as loving
and the moon be still as bright
for the sword outwears its sheath
and the soul wears out the breast
and the heart must pause to breath
and love itself must rest

though the night was made for lovers,
and the day returns too soon
yet we’ll go no more a’roving, 
by the light, by the light of the moon

we are lost lords of darkness
we are found in knowing that
and these things that fall away from us
will not again come back
stars still hang in the day sky
though they cannot be seen
they really come alive
as we are lost in dreams

though the night was made for lovers, 
and the day returns too soon
yet we’ll go no more a’roving, 
by the light, by the light of the moon

our clinging hands are tied
to every other weight
and we're falling down the hillside
with everything we take
should we love's child abandon
as our Father's law is enforced
after acts once born of passion
and time has taken its course

though the night was made for lovers, 
and the day returns too soon
yet we’ll go no more a’roving, 
by the light, by the light of the moon

by the light, 
by the light of the moon

he was the only one who had a plan
nobody else knew where to go
care without fear of popular demand
that's what a leader's made of
now we're moving backwards
i can see it coming again
look around and soon you'll find your enemy's your only friend
does anybody remember laughter
was that carefree child really me? 
did you get what you were after? 
what was that and how did I turn to me?
We'll never reach our destination without a place to start
finger on the trigger back up against the wall
go ahead and take the first shot
or realize that my agenda benefits all
every destination needs a place to start
I'm not a destination but a place to
it would be so easy just to give up now
but I try, as I bleed, I must succeed
never could've done what I did if it wasn't for the ones I did it for
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
hey mister sister why so much enraged
nobody wants to hear you...
spin like a twister pointing all this blame
when was the last time you did anything for someone else
one common goal one aspiration peace in all our hearts
we'll never reach that destination without a place to start
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
everybody needs everybody

SOULS

The sea. One of my old songs, that means a lot to me. I found an old recording, and decided to bring her back to life. Song made from original recordings. 



The Sea…

The shore..
Was still..
While I, breathed your air..
The rain…
Was cold..
I saw, the old light tower there
I stood..
Alone…
With you, under the moons waving lines…
The breeze..
Underneath..
Feeling of, the passing of his faded eyes..
I’ve known..
Of this path…
I’ve grown, so use to it..
With the sea…
And just me..
I can’t see the waves crashing down….

The Sea ( under )

They All Disapear But You

Listen To This Whilst Extremely High

Picture https://flic.kr/p/2jG2un9

Summersun is slowly rising
Across that fateful August sky
Sparrows & starlings flutter
and make a sound that seems to flash.

Remember Blind Pete from Regent
Just a whisper and you'll be there
In the days of travelling
I was waiting
For the soothing rain

This song was done for a contest of the Songwriter Forum Kitchen. Initially I thought the challenge was to write a song not in the standard 4/4 measure. But after finishing this track I found out the rule was to write a 3/4 waltz. So this is a left over.

The line about Blind Pete is a nod to the 1995 Orally Men terror tour.

Soothing Rain

Soothing rain

Badgeman brown and his Glon Quixote chronicles. Outsiders too far gone to even begin looking in. sub-cultural flaker punk from yours truly. .ultimate one chip pony; Human Bean's aren't designed to flake for so long are they? Seany not? I’m  gonna try and make the 'flakeometer' album. These uploads are my honest, most sincerest attempt. I honestly think it could be greybag’s salvation if i were to do it. I bought a flakeometer, it didn't help, it just helped me read what my flake rating was and when I saw it was high, i flaked more. What happened to Badgeman ? James called him the egg man. Damn Greybags nice Track! Google 'badgeman brown', they are giving out free plays all month. I remember when the bugman worked in Caterham co-op. There were some shoplifters which the police lined up at the bottle bank. they made badgeman come out in full light to identify who it was. Badgeman just wanted to keep a low profile so said he 'didn't know' obviously, but despite being discrete, there's been a bullet with his name on ever since. He had to move out to Purely, then Croydon, then New Cross, then various North East hideouts, now we have no idea. Apparently he lives in the countryside, the gateway to the moors, ... Luis Theroux visited him there once. He said he'd return to Caterham, but it's unlikely. He was Fisherman Grey there. A better time. These songs are his story. We miss him, we all do, he was our brother. He still is. He hasn't been that person for a long time now. For other interesting stuff please check out my other brother, my older brother and full time carer: the core of the bags, the original bag, greybags



Gigs:

* Saturday 22nd February - Secret Location, Kilburn, London, Guitar improvisations w/ Will Shimmer

Why thank you.
