lyrics

A man looks up from the morning news
Having seen the people to whom he might lose
His bag his hat and his beautiful wife
So he closes his fist around his valuable life
He said I never even noticed dear what more could I do
What more could I do
A girl marches up with her back to the flag
Wears her pride as a coat and her heart as a rag
She says you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't
So I'm damned if I'll live by oppression and pomp
She says 'hey mr president turn on our lights
But leave us the trees and the sea to admire
But if the nieghbours look crazy then cut them all down
You see, what more could I do

A soldier hangs up his gun and cries
Writes to his love with the tears from his eye
Says that even to me I've a stranger become
So don't blow all your youth on this
He says that life is a damned hard place for love
When freedom seems like a poet's dream
But it's all I've needed all I wanted for years
What more could I do
Will you take my heart will you take my hand
There's no king to lead me to no promised lands
Just a girl outside with my heart in her hands to save me
What more could I do
What more could I do

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
