Song Information:
Since we (Australia) first joined Dubya's "coalition of the willing" I've had the strong feeling that it was all going to go wrong, and it seems I was right - what a surprise! I still find it hard to believe that a small group of politicians can cause all this grief.
One acoustic guitar track, a lead acoustic track (for the five and a half bars it's happening), bass, midi drums (played on the keyboard) and lead and harmony vox. Final mix done with Ozone 3 - a demo version which has now run out unfortunately.
Play it loud!
Neil
Song Lyrics:
Well Enough Alone
2007 Neil Porter
Tell me again how they started,
These sad, dark days
I dont understand
What the passing of time now betrays
Can you tell me what they did that for?
When this began wed been walking
A fine, fine line
Just one big mistake by our leaders
Both yours and mine
Can you tell me what they did that for?
Did we really need another war?
Couldnt we have stayed at home?
Sometimes we should leave the genie in the bottle
Sometimes just leave well enough alone
Sometimes we should leave the genie in the bottle
Sometimes just leave well enough alone
Bad news running like a downhill bike
Wheels dont touch the ground
Bad news coming at the speed of light
My heads just spinning round
Spinning round
What will become of the soldiers
Who came home from war?
How can they be the same people
They were before?
Can you tell me what they did that for?
Did we really need another war?
Couldnt we have stayed at home?
Sometimes we should leave the genie in the bottle
Sometimes just leave well enough alone
What of the hundreds of thousands
Whose lives were lost?
Those that have lied
Sent the others to pay the cost
Can you tell me what they did that for?
Did we really need another war?
Couldnt we have stayed at home?
Sometimes we should leave the genie in the bottle
Sometimes just leave well enough alone
Sometimes we should leave the genie in the bottle
Sometimes just leave well enough alone
Tell me again how they started,
These sad, dark days
