about
Foreign Bodies is about a man who sympathises with the plight of refugees and boat people by putting himself in their shoes, while at the same time feeling helpless to do anything about the issue
lyrics
I saw a thing I can't believe
Where foreign bodies fill the seas
I saw it all on my TV
And couldn't help but think if it were me
I'd hold you're hand and not let go
Whisper in your ear that I love you so
As the waves crashed down across the boat
As it dragged us down to the deapths below
Are you just like me?
Tell me what could I have done
Somehow it is never enough
But I don't mind at all
If the only way to keep you safe
Was to put our trust within the waves
Well maybe toegether we could get away
But where we go I cannot say
Tell me what could I have done
Somehow it is never enough
But I don't mind at all
Foreign bodies fill the sea
Foreign bodies fill the sea
Where foreign bodies fill the seas
I saw it all on my TV
And couldn't help but think if it were me
I'd hold you're hand and not let go
Whisper in your ear that I love you so
As the waves crashed down across the boat
As it dragged us down to the deapths below
Are you just like me?
Tell me what could I have done
Somehow it is never enough
But I don't mind at all
If the only way to keep you safe
Was to put our trust within the waves
Well maybe toegether we could get away
But where we go I cannot say
Tell me what could I have done
Somehow it is never enough
But I don't mind at all
Foreign bodies fill the sea
Foreign bodies fill the sea

about
Fronz Arp Brisbane, Australia
The strange machine which is Fronz Arp grinds like a tattered, angry little hurdy gurdy. With dramatic jaunt and seesawing
melodies that have been compared to weird-pop wonders, such as David Bowie and Tom Waits
“...songs full of drama and action, designed to get pulses racing and yet still sounding both intricate and adventurous” Rave Magazine
