A reworking of a not really officially released song by my friend & old band mate, Jon.  His original track (sorry I don't have a link to it) was done in a minimal electronic style.

Hell On Earth

Dear friends. A nasty war is going on right now. This song is a prayer to the Warlord to stop the fight and withdraw his forces.
I do not dare to mention the name of this Warlord since he has a reputation to send out agents for murdering of inconvinient people all over the world. We have several Warlords in the world, and you must choose by Yourself.

Lyrics:

Letter to the Warlord

The row of people that are walking
away from the war - it is so fearsome

You may see small children
who are struggling along with their mothers
and some of them are wounded
Have You seen what I see Mister Warlord
and if You have You should certainly be ashamed


I saw old and disabled people
who fled across the rivers - on narrow footbridges

I was moved to tears of this sight
but they were helped by some wonderful people
and sometimes they were carried on their backs
Have You seen what I see Mister Warlord
and if You have You should certainly be ashamed


You should never shoot civilian people
which I know that You have done - and that Your soldiers

shot a whole family
they also shot down some old men and women
when they did’t recieve any food
Have You seen what I see Mister Warlord
and if You have You should certainly be ashamed

An approximate translation to Swedish

Kära vänner. Ett otäckt krig pågår just nu. Den här sången är en bön till krigsherren att stoppa kriget och dra tillbaka sina styrkor.
Jag vågar inte nämna namnet på denne krigsherre eftersom han har rykte om att skicka ut agenter för mord på obekväma människor över hela världen. Vi har flera krigsherrar i världen, och du måste välja själv.

Brev till krigsherren

Raden av människor som går
bort från kriget - det är så skrämmande

Du kanske ser små barn
som kämpar tillsammans med sina mammor
och några av dem är sårade
Har du sett vad jag ser Mister Warlord
och om du har så ska du verkligen skämmas


Jag såg gamla och funktionshindrade
som flydde över floderna - på smala gångbroar

Jag blev rörd till tårar av denna syn
men de fick hjälp av några underbara människor
och ibland bars de på ryggen
Har du sett vad jag ser Mister Warlord
och om du har så ska du verkligen skämmas


Man ska aldrig skjuta civila
vilket jag vet att Du har gjort - och att Dina soldater

sköt en hel familj
de sköt också ner några gubbar och kvinnor
när de inte fick någon mat
Har du sett vad jag ser Mister Warlord
och om du har så ska du verkligen skämmas

Letter to the Warlord

So Long, Mars

V-1. HE GOT HIS RECORD DEAL TODAY
A SILVER EAGLE BUS IS ON THE WAY
HE'S ON TOP OF THE WORLD
BUT - UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

CHORUS
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND AND ROUND
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
THE GRASS IS NOT ALWAYS GREENER
ON THE OTHER SIDE
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

V-2. HE'S BEEN ON THE ROAD FOR A YEAR
GIRLS ARE SCREAMING AT EVERY SHOW
IT'S NO LONGER ABOUT THE MUSIC
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

REPEAT CHORUS

V-3. MAMA TAUGHT HIM RIGHT FROM WRONG
BUT FAME CAN DRAG YOU DOWN
IN THIS WORLD WE LIVE IN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

REPEAT CHORUS

ENDING
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND AND ROUND
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND AND ROUND
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

Up Is Sometimes Down (Lyrics Tony Harris - Music / Vocals by Eddie Harrison) Original 2012

Ahh, the dissolute pursuits of the leisured classes. So shallow! So lacking in substance! 

And pursuits scarcely get more trivial than those perpetrated by Cheesemont Paisley-Paisley and Lord Clarence Gatling von Hassle Royce, 9th Earl of Wadstein, or "Royce" as he may be casually hailed assuming you survive your first attempt at such familiarity. 

Hypnopompetus is but one of several nauseatingly diverse projects in which this brace of regal rogues, never content with studio facilities or genre restrictions, have embroiled themselves.

The skill these two flamboyants command at stylistic metamorphosis may be inextricably (and unfortunately) linked to their contentious working relationship, which is why they've become known as "The Prickly Pair". 

Yet there's no denying that the results always leave an inimitable residue -- no matter which of them is left holding the editorial high ground when the blood dries.

So Long, Mars

Hypnopompetus
