about

Our sixth single is a bit different. It's the first song we've written in Drop D guitar tuning (and started out as an acoustic guitar riff while Matt was watching Family Guy during lockdown 2020); it's heavily inspired by one of our favourite bands, Queen (and specifically Sir Dr Brian May's guitar style!); and it's a story song about a compromised gangster spy in 1920s Chicago who meets his maker! If you think that sounds like a crazy combination of ideas... you're absolutely right! Listen for yourself to hear how we tied it all together!

lyrics

LYRICS:

We're up against the wall
Then you draw your swords
And you take a little pause
To hope that it's all gone

Take up the detective role
Strong enough to face old Al Capone
One legend speaks for itself
Just like a little glass of the top shelf

You have found the action
Give me your fatal attraction
I say my prayers to no one
I'm kneeling on my conviction

The music in my head
Lets me know I'm not dead
On the streets of Chicago
Every ward with its Capo

I'm staring down the barrel of a loaded gun
You're gonna wanna see this when I'm done
A tip of the hat for Mr. Fun
With all that's said and done

You have found the action
Give me your fatal attraction
I say my prayers to no one
I'm kneeling on my conviction

You have found the action
Give me your fatal attraction
I say my prayers to no one
I'm kneeling on my conviction

You have found the action
Give me your fatal attraction
I say my prayers to no one
I'm kneeling on my conviction

You have found the action
Give me your fatal attraction
I say my prayers to no one
I'm kneeling on my conviction
