Verse 1 On the tier without a tear You contemplate the justice that brought you here Oh yes here, locked in this cell, reading newspapers filled the stories they tell About things bad things you did Like educating the poor, feeding the kids The descendants of the ex-slaves For society’s sake they said put you away Chorus Now watch em all run free LET OFF THE LEASH x 8 Verse 2 After four and forty years, You’re finally released and you think of your peers Some deceased Some in exile Or on a poster on the wall of your oppressor’s grandchild What of those heroes of the regime? Who bombed kids in churches in the name of liberty They just fade in obscurity Like old wallpaper the pattern’s too dim to see Chorus Now watch em all run free LET OFF THE LEASH x 8 Bridge Now Here we go again just running circles, Running in circles, Running in circles… Chorus Now watch em all run free LET OFF THE LEASH x 8

about

Middle Of The Night contains 8 brave new songs that courageously take on the subjects like sex, love, politics, racism, gentrification and urban survival that haunt the mind and body in the wee hours. Dare to dream!

THANK YOUS:
There are a lot of people I could name but honestly it'd never end But I would like to say thank you to everyone involved in this project and to all our families - Oyewole, Odoh, Dell'acqua, Lorenzo, Deegan, Macintosh and the Losi family (thanks to Marco for letting my run wild in the studio - dude I not THAT bad! Thanks to Aaron for letting me use your gear and that amazing Fender Jazz Bass). Thanks to Graham Stannard for his work on our video and photography. Shout out to Martin Brimicombe - always a supporter! Shout out to Raphael Mann - just cos you managed to hide getting tired of me tapping your brain very, very well!

Oh - people don't do this a lot any more - just a few shout outs to OTHER bands - if I didn't mention, you chill - you know who you are and typing is really tiring and it's late! This is like the very last thing I have to do! in no particular order: Creature and Rebel Matic, The Veldt, Love Nor Money, Anthony Joseph and the Spasm Band, California King, CJ Martin Coleman aka Honeychild, The Dark Tides, Black Orchids, Elephant 12, Mike Bradley, Alero, The Cortege, Spanner Jazz Punks, Tolerance Manoeuvre - that'll have do!

Cheers
