about

Theme: Faster

lyrics

What is this?
We're stopping
Not a town
For miles

Safety checks done, thruster pads on
Feet are down and keys are in the ignition
Tank is full, so given the clues
There's one conclusion: Sabotage!

---

Nice to finally meet you, Bonnie, D3
Though I can tell from your looks that you've not heard of me
I'm the head of this posse, the Swiftrider Gang
And I'll give you one chance to give up while you can

See we're better, stronger, we've got you outnumbered
We're meaner, hit harder, wherever we plunder
Our bikes are much faster than your out of date car
So crawl back to your home, cause these streets are now ours!

---

Well I do hate to leave in too much of a rush
But there's banks, shops and homes to rob, plus dreams to crush
While we leave you here stranded, one piece of advice
You get more from your marks if you don't leave them alive

See we're better, stronger, we've got you outnumbered
We're meaner, hit harder, wherever we plunder
Our bikes are much faster than your out of date car
So you can walk back home, cause the streets are now ours!

The Bifrost Incident
by The Mechanisms

The latest album by The Mechanisms, a group of storytelling space-pirates who retell tales of mythology as epic folk/prog/rock concept albums. This one's about Viking mythology, on a train, in space. Ben Below

Signal To Noise
by Softwire

The collaborative album writing challenge with colleagues, to write a 15 song album in a month. It turned out super sweet, and I'm in a good two thirds of the tracks in some capacity! Ben Below

Tales To Be Told
by The Mechanisms

TTBT has some of my favorite songs written by The Mechs. Iphis is my personal favorite due to its ties with Greek Mythology, but it's definitely an album I have on repeat constantly. yumeinati
