about

I wrote, recorded and mixed this track in April 2012. It refers to the way time slips by so quickly and yet the world seems to stay the same or gets worse! It's another song of frustration and disgust with the powers that be and all the time it has taken them to do virtually nothing - especially for the common man and woman.

I intend to make this song available on a near-future, all acoustic album.

lyrics

Well, more than ten years gone and what have they done?
We can'y believe some of the things that go on
You've got us all, you've got us all on the run (on the run)
And nothing much has changed in all the time that has gone
Oh, won't somebody tell me when we're having fun?
Let's have some fun!

Another decade has past and it's gone really fast
And your promise of peace, well, it really didn't last
We can't believe the amount you waste (oh, no, no) every day
Stop dragging us screaming toward the end of your days
Gonna' make you pay!

Well, you've got to give us something, something to believe in
Gotta' give us something to make our lives worth living
Have you no heart as well as no soul?
Ten years have gone by and you're still lyin' in your hole;
Biggest lie you've ever told!

Well, that's over ten years gone since they promised the sun
Sometimes I wonder what planet we're on
Over ten years gone, we've shed a million tears, a million tears
You gotta' give us something good now, to allay some of our fears
No more tears!

Ten years gone, ten years gone, ten years gone, I'm gone
Over ten years gone, I'm gone, so gone
Ten years gone, I'm over ten years gone
Ten years gone...

about

JJ's Blues Project Birmingham, UK

JJ’s Blues Project: is an on-going, solo, blues-based concept that began on tape in 1998 (digital 2001). This is a sample of my work; I play all instruments and sing my own lyrics (I also created the artwork). All albums are recorded, mixed & mastered by me; away from my job as guitar, bass, keyboard, drum tutor and producer etc. Thanks for listening/ downloading. JJ. ... more
