LYRICS | WiNNiNG SEEDS

When you want to play the poor, you got to play it good,
all the way through – hey, hey, hey
Don’t get over things, don’t catch a good seat
and don’t keep up with the beat – hey, hey, hey

Don’t hang on…

People won’t forget you the days when you tried to escape,
and deep inside they will always know
They won, you gave up, so they have the power around –
hey, hey, hey, hey, hey – hey, hey – hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

But don’t you forget,
The ability to win exists in every one of us
Giving up is something we acquired here outside
And hey, don’t you ever forget,
The ability to win existed long before everything else
As you are a winning seed, as deep inside we’re all winning seeds

You matched yourself to the rules, without leaving a place to your truth
and you didn’t play the poor
You really suffered and you surely wanted to escape
but with all the pain you surmounted

You managed to hang on…

People won’t forget you the days when you tried to escape,
and deep they will always know
They won, you gave up, so they have the power around –
hey, hey, hey, hey, hey – hey, hey – hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

But don’t you forget,
The ability to win exists in every one of us
Giving up is something we acquired here outside
And hey, don’t you ever forget,
The ability to win existed long before everything else
As you are a winning seed, as deep inside we’re all winning seeds

A winning seed, as deep inside we’re all winning seeds

ALiEN ALRiGHT Modi'In Makabim Re'Ut, Israel

Landing in the UK for an unexpected stay of 7 years, 'Alien Alright' is like an 'outsider's indie-rock diary' of music recorded during that time.

It's organized by order and consists of 14 albums - all 100% DIY, home-made.

Some of the albums are more properly produced, some are recorded with just vocals over an acoustic guitar, and 2 are improvised live.

You’re welcome to explore and enjoy :) ... more
