    We have teamed up with the guys at DelCraft, who have come up with a superb very Limited Edition of “Wasters & Ne’er-Do-Wells”, for us to offer to our special fans and followers. They have produced a natural wood CD presentation box for our album, it has been laser etched with a version of the album cover and then sealed with polyurethane and beeswax.

    Each copy is numbered 01/20, 02/20 etc and is lined with grey felt, to add even more protection for your album. It is guaranteed that there will be only 20 of this product ever made, so why not grab a copy while you can, they are going very fast.

    Please Note: The price of £20 + P&P, includes a copy of the CD. However, if you have already purchased the CD, you can upgrade your package for £15 + P&P. You will then receive only the presentation box, with its unique limited number but no CD

about

We all know one, don’t we? Originally written about an American politician.

lyrics

The Man In The Big House (Moses)

The man in the big house doesn’t have any friends
There are so many bodies upon who he depends
For his soul
That’s his goal

He spends so much time planning how to extort
All those inferior people who he must sell short
That’s his way
Every day

I’ve heard it said
He can’t lie straight in bed
And he won’t be the one to be true
Never known to be wrong
Likes to bang his own gong
Got no worries he’s gonna’ push through

He don’t have time for all of those fools
Who are living their lives by obeying the rules
They’re all jerks
With no perks

When will they realise that it’s all about him
Touched by a higher being, he will not dim
Though they try
They’re marching nearby

I’ve heard it said
He can’t lie straight in bed
And he won’t be the one to be true
Never known to be wrong
Likes to bang his own gong
Got no worries he’s gonna’ push through

I’ve heard it said
He can’t lie straight in bed
And he won’t be the one to be true
Never known to be wrong
Likes to bang his own gong
Got no worries he’s gonna’ push through
