Description
It's Politics this time! Not aimed at anyone in particular - although there are some obvious references. I recorded a song called 'Bring Back Maggie' (which was tongue in cheek by the way) and this is a follow-up really. I don't have much time for any of our current political parties - they seem to say the right things and then do the opposite.

Lyrics
Spin
Politicians are an enigma to me
A load of hypocrites with a vision they alone can see
Giving with one hand with the they’re taking more
Taxing the rich to help support the poor
But spare a thought for the middle man
Who works hard to bring home what he can
And if he is down on his luck
Guaranteed from you he’ll never get a buck
I can do without another winter of discontent
Scraping and saving just to pay my rent
Allowance payments that you made
Are now just another debt that has to be repaid
Strikes, power cuts, 3-day weeks
galloping infation, rubbish on the streets
The country can run itself when the deputy’s in charge
He’s busy entertaining and being driven in luxury cars
So goodbye Tony that smile I won’t miss at all
But your replacement he’s even worse
That’s the man who stole our pensions away
I wonder how long in power that man will stay
So spin spin spin and spin again
You no longer can tell truth from lies
So spin spin spin you’re spining out of control
Lining your own pockets and pretending that it’s not so
Politicians are an enigma to me
A load of hypocrites with a vision they alone can see
Giving with one hand with the they’re taking more
Taxing the rich to help support the poor
But spare a thought for the middle man
Who works hard to bring home what he can
And if he is down on his luck
Guaranteed from you he’ll never get a buck
I can do without another winter of discontent
Scraping and saving just to pay my rent
Allowance payments that you made
Are now just another debt that has to be repaid
Strikes, power cuts, 3-day weeks
galloping infation, rubbish on the streets
The country can run itself when the deputy’s in charge
He’s busy entertaining and being driven in luxury cars
So goodbye Tony that smile I won’t miss at all
But your replacement he’s even worse
That’s the man who stole our pensions away
I wonder how long in power that man will stay
So spin spin spin and spin again
You no longer can tell truth from lies
So spin spin spin you’re spining out of control
Lining your own pockets and pretending that it’s not so

Hey Peter, nice new song. I really like the rhythm guitar riff. Even though it's pretty crispy clean, it has an intensity about it. Your vocals are really sounding good as well.
I bet you were an Early Learning Centre Shaker in your day!
Spin spin spin and spin again!
