Nobody Told Us

by Steve Bonham and The Long Road

/
1.
Nobody told us we'd end up living like this We can't help thinking somebody was taking the piss All those promises that didn't see the light of day We can't help thinking, there's gotta be a better way Nobody noticed when the roof fell out of the sky Nobody noticed when the man told a big fat lie So why do you want me to tip my hat and take your advice? Why do you want me to keep on keeping on, and not pay the price? It's a bad, sad, world when the cheating starts ‘Tis a mad, mad, world that tears us apart It's a long hard day when it's understood All the good trees got lost in the woods You and I fading away, waiting around for Judgement Day You and I, afraid of the blue Wondering what the hell we are gonna do Somebody saw it, but nobody said a word Nobody called it and not nobody was heard Everybody argues, and everybody’s looking to run Nobody matters, so somebody thinks they have won I’ve been thinking, the world is quickly shrinking All the boats are sinking, all the dudes are drinking The swamp is filling quick, the country’s falling sick When I think of it, what else rhymes with prick?

If you're gonna sing, sing out loud If you're gonna make something, make yourself proud Can't you see our hearts are on fire If we stretch out our arms, will be climbing out the mire Come on all, put down your heavy load Dance me to sunshine, somewhere down the road Be who you are, you know you're worth fighting for Let the losers leave, don't keep the score When the world made you it broke the mould Brace yourself, come in out the cold Come on all, put down your heavy load Dance me to sunshine, somewhere down the road Don't spend a day living in the past Don’t hold on tight ‘cause nothing ever lasts Greet the dawn as the start of something new Trust yourself, you'll find out what to do Come on all, put down your heavy load Dance me to sunshine, somewhere down the road

about

Steve Bonham and The Long Road England, UK

A swampy brew of styles mixed from both sides of the ocean, characterised by sharp lyrics, great melodies and the fab sound of acoustic instruments being played with passion and purpose. It’s a kind of music that appeals to the renegade and outlaw in us all. ... more
