about

This is a song about Viv, a Lady who got evicted from her flat with no where to go, because she hoarded so much stuff. they said it was a fire risk

All money downloaded from the track will go to Viv,

Bandcamp take 15% then paypal take 5% of that, the rest will go to her, just to help out.

lyrics

There this woman called Viv and they throw her in the streets
Because she collected too much stuff oh it was piling up
She couldn't get in her bed room for the pass 5 years
Be careful of this story it could bring you to tears
She's got an attachment for every single thing
She can't let it go out of her life it would cause her to such pain

When someone needs help can't we just help
Except move the blame to someone else

So a few friends got together and tried as quick we could
To get as much stuff out of that flat before the bailiffs turned up
But they turned up on time and they just changed the locks
And on one seems to care where tonight she will stop
Vulnerable old lady, a little bit eccentric
And we like her dearly and don't think this should stick
Can you just help when someone needs help not make it a problem
That's the reason they kicked her out and I know they gave her time
Didn't offer help well not the sort that works
Someone needs to know, don't let this lady just go
Become another statistic another news story on a Friday

When someone needs help cant we just help
Except move the blame to someone else

This is just a super fun album. It perfectly expresses the kind of creativity that came out of the pandemic, when we all just went, "F--- it, I'm bored, why not?" Robert Fischer

I'm sat in our van, in a layby in the Midlands awaiting the exuberant excitement tomorrow... This is where it's at! Love and Light and Laughter to all that made this little slice of magic whilst supporting mental health. Myself, the universe and many others thank you.

Confused and amazed about the different styles and the overload of lyrics, after my first full album sitdown. Struggeling to find the cohesion, but it will do for now. After a few listens..cd in hand too, starting to like it a lot. Anywhere i can find full lyrics? This must be amoré..my new favorite..italodisco meets dep mod ervanduijvenbode
