Off Season

Did you ever find the good life?
The kind where everything just goes right,
no bills no worries, just a clear mind,
and a woman by your side.

You said the lifestyle dragged you under,
that you would find your lucky number,
but you're not getting any younger,
you'd better take a walk outside.

And feel the wind in your hair,
fix the cracks and the tears,
go close your eyes and say a prayer,
can't you see where you're going to?

You'd better change your way of living,
too much taking and no giving,
you could be saved if you stopped digging,
you've got the red man on your side.

I bet you thought you'd found the good life,
those artificial feelings getting high,
behind grey clouds there is a blue sky,
but the rains gonna fall.

Forget the stars you see in deep space,
they are just embers in god's fireplace,
change your name and get a new face,
break down another wall.

You know the devil wants your number,
he's got a never ending hunger,
for a little boy wonder,
just like you.

Don't let him drag you to his basement,
you're gonna be his new replacement,
looking at the life you've wasted,
you know you could have had it all.

End of Today, Start of Tomorrow

End Of Today, Start Of Tomorrow

In a world where every second is a lifetime,
where the people neither see in black or white,
and the man who works the car wash on the corner,
can become a hero, a hero overnight.

He's a savior and a king,
of a viral 7 second dream,
and the kids don't play,
just sit around all day,
staring at the image on the screen.

And the romance died and memories went,
after the money had all been spent,
and all that's left is the government,
they keep saying it's the best it's ever been.

Now John sits behind his desk for 15 hours,
just watching all the numbers rolling in.
As his family wait around the kitchen table,
the dinners gone cold,
John's not in.

And the romance died and memories went,
after the money had all been spent,
and all that's left is the government,
they're still saying it's the best it's ever been.

Now see John grab his loaded gun,
stroking the barrel with his tongue,
he won't be home tonight, 
when the dinners done,
and it's a shame because it's the best it's ever been.

Young Amphibians are an Alternative Rock band based in Leeds, West Yorkshire.
Since their formation at the beginning of 2014, Young Amphibians have already had the dream start. Releasing their debut EP ‘Thought Control’ within months of founding, as well as the release of 3 well received singles, Young Amphibians have played some highly prestigious venues across the country including Manchester Academy, The Spice of Life - Soho, The George Tavern - Stepney & Brudenell Social Club - Leeds.

In February 2017, Young Amphibians released their highly anticipated second EP ‘Junked Up Heart’ on Leeds based independent record label VICEROY Records. The follow up to 2014’s ‘Thought Control’ features the singles ‘End of Today, Start of Tomorrow’ & ‘The Best It’s Ever Been’ & is available digitally via all major music platforms as well as available on CD & 12” vinyl at www.viceroyrecords.bigcartel.com

“All thirteen minutes of ‘Junked Up Heart’ are incredibly balanced and the maturity is certainly on show right from the off” - Halfway 2 Nowhere.

In November 2017, Young Amphibians began working on their third release. With a release date set for November 2nd 2018, the band will be hitting the road, with gigs across the UK. It's the quartet’s first completely DIY record, with all tracks written, engineered & produced by the band through their independent label VICEROY Records.
