Colours

I am a god, 
Of nothing I shape a little world
With a bite of each arm,
Subtle, nice and bold
It comes in many ways 
And i know by now
Beckon the ancient fires
This is my evening dress
I watch them glow
and I will stay
Your gnarly ghost
Happening at the same time:
Your shining guide,
Delight all the darling boys
With or without the old soul-and-so
You just can't bribe brightness

Sleepers should be dreamers, oh i know
It's so obvious it drives me crazy
Making up entire scenes
That used to taste so sweet to me
And if you want to catch those arrows on your bow
You should simply believe, and
Do & be & do do be do
Waahoooooooooo

I'm on a train of thought
I've got nothing but nought
I should have brought
My binoculars, oh 
See me boys, looking for something
I'm down in the dumplings,
Open the bin bag
Bragging and boasting, b&b
You're surely not just anybody
But what's in a name? 
You're not yourself,
You just can't bribe brightness

Sleepers should be dreamers, oh i know
It's so obvious it drives me crazy
Making up entire scenes
That used to taste so sweet to me
And if you want to catch those arrows on your bow
You should simply believe, and
Do & be & do do be do
Waahoooooooooo

‘WHAT DID YOU DO?’ ASK THE ELEPHANT TREES IN THEIR NEW POIGNANT ANTHEM THAT CALLS FOR CHANGE

Release Date: 25 / SEPT 2020 via Incantation Records
'What Did You Do' is a rhetorical, a comment on 2020, the year that changed the world.    A soundtrack for the UK in ‘post lockdown’.
Written by lead singer Martha Phillips during lockdown the band self recorded the song in their homes, and is the first fully self produced track by Martha, who has spent the last 6 months working on her production skills. The lyrics read like a biblical warning; ”there’s a change coming, a mighty flood or something” Martha says, “ In 50 years time where are we going to be, what world will our children live in? When they ask, what did you do, what will you say? We’ve all learnt about the depths of the climate crisis, black lives matter movement, and our unequal society, but what do we actually do about it other than post on social media and use a few woke hashtags. I include myself in this question more than anyone! When I wrote this song I was struggling with the constant wave of ‘bad news’ from 2020, and looked inward. I imagined my future family, looking at me and asking “but mum what did you actually do?”, the answer right now is very little, but by raising the question for myself I hope to inspire others too."

I don't like to say the music I write is about any particular subject because to me music is a deeply personal medium to connect with. However, I was feeling rather sentimental writing this piece and filled with gratitude being able to connect and celebrate with the people I love, albeit largely through a computer screen. 

While interacting digitally is not the most ideal way to connect, it's a privilege I often take for granted.   In a sense I wanted to write something that could be a celebration of celebrations to come, reflecting how I will feel with renewed opportunities to coincide with the people who are special to me in a common space.
