We’re all led in the same way
The best thing is to break out
Knew what I had to do all along
Thinking fast and I’m feeling strong
I’m heading out of the circle
Life can be clouds and rain
Learn to live with the pain
A dark memory inside my head
Gotta move on is what I read
I’m heading out of the circle
Never mind, never mind
Life repeats itself
But you can still break out
Of the circle
Of the circle

Opposites Attract

It was a cold, cold winter
A war situation
Wrong place, wrong time
I thought back to when I was a kid
Scene in black and white
I gave what I could
I tried to reach you
But what can you do
When time is running out
I let you go ' cause everything ends
And in this world everything is uncertain
Opposites attract
Wars are fought and won
We learn to love
It was a cold, cold winter
A war situation
I felt like killing you
Me and you we could be good
But then we couldn't work at it
Cause times were hard and work was scarce
And something had to go
A storm approaches, the engine stalls
But us we just sit and wait
Opposites attract
Wars are fought and won
We learn to love
Opposites attract
Wars are fought and won
Opposites attract
Wars are fought and won
We learn to love

Blood

You loved my hair and my clothes
You took me seriously and let me know.
Whatever I did was okay by you.
I wanted you to leave him.
That blood going round my head...
I hear it.
You saw a pig dying and felt the pain
Caring for others was natural and right
You went into nursing because you were full of kindness
Secrets were kept secret
Smiles with those dentures
White like a tungsten filament lamp
Open yet guarded
Who knew what that smile hid
The misery of separation
I hear that blood going round my head again
I hear it...
Work and more work
you wore yourself out
To hide the pain
Of the pain of the past
I'd never see you until late at night
Too tired to communicate
Bottled up inside
The turmoils ferment
Then copious amounts of alcohol
Never let the poison out in any way
It grew in different ways
That blood going round my head
It comes out in different ways
In different ways...

Maybe We'll Talk

Walk the streets with lights and noise
Rain splashing the window sills
Shoes leaking, letting in
Shoulders rounded and tense
Fuming, steam appears
I see steep stairs to a pub down below
Will you let me know what you think
Or I'll walk all night
Chip shop smells, vinegar and fat
People talk at a table near the window
The kids get bored and restless
Adults ignore with consequences
I walk up and down the high street
Hoping for a solution
Waiting for peace
Just waiting for peace
Maybe soon we'll talk
Come high tide and winds from the east
Come smiles and groans,
Grimaces and frowns
Give me a space, give me some space
Then maybe we'll talk

Tough Old Birds

Tough old birds from a time long gone
Doesn’t seem that way today
The differences then were so clear
From the music that we listened to and the attitudes that came from that
And now all that splits us
Is the desire to be better than each other
I don’t care if you live or if you die
Tough old birds like you and me
We survive like people who built the ark
I’ve held every job there is to hold in this town
I know everything there is to know about you
So why when the gossip is riding high
Am I the one who gets the look of the eye
Obliged me - ooh ooh
Kiss me once again like you used to
When you weren’t afraid to be yourself
When the pain of your life was diverted
For that short time in your youth
Show to me that you have desire
You really can think for yourself
When the thoughts of the nation have gone
When the thoughts of the nation have gone

it's an absolute treat to have both of The Orchids Peel.sessions available digitally and on vinyl. I'd forgotten just how good they sounded. Four fantastic songs - a rip-roaring version of the much loved Caveman and the beautiful Dirty Clothing from the greatest album of the 90s, Unholy Soul. Truly wonderful.
