Whatever happened to the Teddy Boys

Does anyone remember the good old days
When dressing like you meant it was all the rage                                                                                         
In a land that time’s forgotten, in a world that wasn’t waiting to get paid

Handjobs and milkshakes in the arcade
Young men unafraid to rain on your parade
With pockets full of money and ciggies and a comb and maybe a switchblade

Once were delinquents 
But now their memories begin to fade
So close to extinction
Never step on shoes made of blue suede
Don’t step on my blue suede

Tattoos declare in Britain made
Smell in the air of grease & pomade
And there was fighting in the dancehalls and heavy petting in the front stalls of the matinee 
The slightest little trigger could start a row
Not enough imagination too many furrowed brows 
As Disc jockeys played the Youth Clubs and bruisers set upon the hardest pubs around 

Once were delinquents
But now slicked back hair reveals a balding crown
So close to extinction
But I thought that there was one in every town
There was one in every town

Whatever happened to the teddy boys
When times were good and times were heady boys
Whatever happened to the teddy boys 
Life was a riot & you were ready boys
Whatever happened to the teddy boys
When girls were girls and work was steady boys 
Whatever happened to the teddy boys
When we were messed up in the heady boys
Whatever happened to the teddy boys
Whatever happened to the teddy boys
And as we tuck you up in beddy boys 
You'll be a teddy ‘til your deady boys

~ LYRICS ~

I cannot say I’m not afraid, I’m pretty scared you know
Hold my hand, tighter still, I’m insecure you know
By the fire there she is she comes alive now
As I fall to my knees I beg forgiveness

Do you fear for your life now?
Do you fear for your life now?
But what good am I though?
Do you fear for your life?

I cannot say I’m not afraid, I’m pretty scared you know
Hold my hand, tighter still, I’m insecure you know
By the fire there she is she comes alive now
With a warm and friendly smile I fell in love with her

Does she fear for her life now?
Does she fear for her life now?
But what good am I though?
Does she fear for her life?

For your life, for your life, what good am I though?
For your life, what good am I though?

She will smile when it is dark she’ll give you life
My heart cries oh my memories served me well
I’ll give you hope, I’ll give you strength hold on my child
Will you stay a little while?

Fear For Your Life

I'm still trying to locate the light. 
Forgive me if I've yet to get it right. 
I've stumbled and I've fallen down. 

All I've ever wanted was you 
I don't know what I'm supposed to do. 
All this time I've longed for your kiss 
never knew what I was missing. 

There's no good in goodbye 
I've tried and I've tried. 
You walk away. 
I walk away... 
then come back begging you to stay. 
There's no good in goodbye 
I've cried and I I've cried, 
First I hate you 
the you hate me; 
but leaving doesn't solve a thing. 

Tell me do you really love her 
as if she's your long lost mother? 
Leave me in this hell by myself 
I don't need anyone else... 

There's no good in goodbye 
I've tried and I tried. 
You walk away 
I walk away then come back... 

I feel a song 
trapped deep within 
this 
closing of 
this mouth 
the tight
hold 
of this breath 
this voice control 
this melody that 
I can't continue... 

Walk out the door leave me once me 
I've cried. I've cried. 
There's no good in goodbye 
I tried and I tried. 
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye...

The Kick is the title track from Gris-de-Lin's forthcoming debut EP which will be released digitally on Noisy Little Birds/BB*Island on 22nd April.

THE KICK
It's strange to say I did not feel
the kick rebound from my upright stage
opponents prospered I could not touch
positioned round they threw themselves

Time... kick
Time... kick

In spite we know this place belonged
to the elements that day
try as we might home had imposed
possession absence failed our breeze

Time... kick
Time... kick

I did not feel the kick, the breeze
the prospered home and absent me
I did not feel the kick, the breeze
the prospered home and absent me


THE KICK

The title track for our new album 'The Hidden Colour' out 12/03/16. Visit www.thegalleons.com for details

THE GALLEONS - The Hidden Colour

A collaboration between myself and Orion Rogers. It was a pleasure.

This is what NestHQ think:
"It’s a truly powerful listening experience. The emotional piano progressions introduce the song, evolving into a warm liquid wobble synth that pulses like an ocean wave in an otherwise completely silent night. I swear you can feel the music breathing. The song is met equally with a moving vocal performance by Cammie Robinson. Her vulnerable charisma and whispery timbre add the finishing touches on this fantastic record.

Be sure to grab the free download here and find more of O R I O N on SoundCloud and Twitter."
