about

This instrumental piece from The Hut People was just begging for some lyrics and harmonies. The political scene may have moved on since it was written, or it may not!

lyrics

Cabinet of Curiosities
Words & Harmonies by Thursday's Child (2014)
[Music by The Hut People]

Health service is sickly, education beaten back
That lot at works and pensions, have got us on the rack
Getting in a pickle over storms and floods
The harbingers of finance (are) sucking at our blood

[Vote for me, vote for me, vote for me now
I'll change your life but I won't tell you how
Do as we say, a-and not as we do
We are in charge, a-and you lot eschew]

Cutting regulation, but clogging up the courts
Preventing us from seeing, those things that we ought
Stopping common protest, gagging public voice
Ensuring that the ballot's now seen as Hobson's choice

[]

Scotland wants independence so too does England now
To Westminster's hoi polloi we no longer will kowtow
Straight-forward, real, democracy, with crook-ed MPs caught
Regaining all the freedoms for which our fathers fought

[]

A collusion coalition, full of liberal re-deals
So just stop all your moaning, put your shoulder to the wheel
Don't labour under the-impression 'bout the shadows on the wall
Feigning opposition they're no use at all


We're fed up, we're fed up, we're fed up with it all
We're fed up, we're fed up, we're fed up with it all
We're fed up, we're fed up, we're fed up with it all

Thursday's Child UK

Thursday's Child was born on a Monday (August Bank Holiday 2009)!

Chris Pyam and Ken Punshon got together to try out a couple of ideas for songs. That afternoon they created about eight songs; since then over 100 more have emerged, with a few more 'bubbling away'.

Heather Dunn joined us in Nov 13 to contribute additional harmonies during the creation of our third album (Carry My Thoughts). ... more
