about

We are releasing this single to mark today's events. Those who abuse the powers given to them by the public, must have that power removed from them.
From the forthcoming album 'Through Dark Polished Glass', a suite of songs about the English Civil Wars, inspired by the divisions that continue to this very day.

lyrics

Onward to that wretched court, where whores and princes do consort,
there hidden be thy traitor king, bloated by his feted kin.
A man unfit to wield such power, be dragged to thy righteous tower.
So full of noble enterprise, with rats he now is deigned to lie.

String him up at old Tyburn, it's there they'll make the tyrants learn.
'Neath branches of the bloody tree, red will blend into the green.

Roll him down the common streets, for all true righteousness to speak,
to those who break such heads to rule, be cast as kings but played as fools.
Like a fish upon a hook, we'll raise his head to take a look.
For thy judgement now must come, so swift the blade of justice won.

String him up at old Tyburn, it's there they'll make the tyrants learn.
'Neath branches of the bloody tree, red will blend into the green.
