A long time ago ,  a good friend of mine was in a band called Wally. They made two successful albums then split up during a tour of the USA. This started out as a song by Roy Webber for the lost third album. I only heard it a couple of times, but recently I realised how appropriate it is to the way we live now. I only remembered a couple of verses, so the middle of the song has lyrics by me.

I’m going to hand out a warning, about events that might come

Pretty soon you’ll be crawling, to the beat of a different drum.

There’ll be no time for pretenders, watch what you do with your life, my friend

There’ll be no time for losers. You’d better watch what you do in the night.

 

 

Don’t come and tell us you’re homeless, don’t say that you’ve got no food.

You could find work if you wanted. You never had it so good.

We’ll feed you if you have earned it, long as you just do what’s right.

Don’t go stirring up trouble. You’d better watch what you do in the night

 

 

No use complaining and moaning, no use to kick up a fuss.

Put down your torches and banners, why not just be one of us?

We know what you’re doing each minute, we’ve got you all in our sights.

Know where you are, who you’ve been with, You’d better watch what you do in the night

 

You’d better watch what you do.

You’d better watch what you do

You’d better watch what you do in the night

 

 

I’m going to hand out a warning, about events that might come

Pretty soon you’ll be crawling, to the beat of a different drum.

So get yourself put in order, why you look such a disgrace

You’d better change that religion, be a part of the super race.
