LIFE IN A TRAFFIC JAM
(Lyrics and music Tim Hunter)
I need an open road
Need to lay down my heavy load
Can you set me free
We’ve got to get away
We need to find a brighter day
Just escape with me , from this
Life In A Traffic Jam
Nothing improving
Nothing really moving
Let’s find the promised land
We’ll keep on driving
We’ll be arriving on time
I need to find my home
For too long I have been alone
But I still believe
Though it’s been so long
We can find where we belong
If we only leave this
Life In A Traffic Jam
Nothing improving
Nothing really moving
Let’s find the promised land
We’ll keep on driving
We’ll be arriving on time
And though they say that you will get there in the end
Sometimes it seems that you will never find a friend
Life In A Traffic Jam
Nothing improving
Nothing really moving
Let’s find the promised land
We’ll keep on driving
We’ll be arriving on time
Life In A Traffic Jam
Life In A Traffic Jam
Life In A Traffic Jam
Life In A Traffic Jam

The Right Wavelength (Music and Lyrics: Tim Hunter)
The road is long, all we’ve got is our songs, got to be so strong you know
So many feelings we never show
Need someone with the time to spare, someone who will share some time with me
Someone who cares enough to take some tea oh yeah
Can I tune into you?
Are you on the right wavelength?
Is there someway to get through with the signal strength to start anew?
To start anew
(on the right wavelength)
To start anew
(on the right wavelength)
Won’t you turn the dial,
Let me see you smile
All I have is my lonely song
I need somebody to sing along
Does anybody care?
Is anyone out there who can lift me when I’m low, tryin to find you on this radio
Can I tune into you? Are you on the right wavelength?
Is there someway to get through with the signal strength to start anew?
To start anew (on the right wavelength) To start anew (on the right wavelength

Commercial Suicide (lyrics and music: Tim Hunter)
I don’t do this all the time no it’s only a sideline,
Dreams don’t pay the bills the day job’s my lifeline
I don’t believe in commercial suicide, I’ve tried but it’s commercial suicide
No I won’t commit commercial suicide
I need to have a hit and I need it really soon, I need to make a profit won’t you please download a tune. I’ll sign off the day job if I can afford it , but until that day I’ll not
commit commercial suicide
I don’t believe in commercial suicide
I’ve tried but its commercial suicide
No I won’t commit commercial suicide

Spare The Tiger (Lyrics and Music: T. Hunter)
If we don’t do something now, soon they will be gone
They're fighting for survival, soon there will be none
Humans are expanding, building concrete and glass
Grabbing more and more, wildlife’s disappearing fast
These beautiful creatures, from the tropical heat to the frozen north
Spare The Tiger, care for the Lions too,
Share our world with the big cats,
It’s up to me and you
To save their natural habitat
Spare The Tiger
Intelligent and agile, with their eyes burning bright
At the top of the food chain, and ready for the fight
Don’t destroy their grace and beauty,
You’ll destroy the Earth’s very soul,
Give them sanctuary
Don’t exploit them, let them roam free

Dumb It Down (Music and Lyrics: T. Hunter)
Dumb it down on the Radio, Dumb it down on the TV show
Dumb it down, Dumb it down, Dumb it right on down, Dumb it down
No point in being complicated, No point in being sophisticated
Dumb it down, Dumb it down, Dumb it right on down, Dumb it down
Dumb it right on down, ‘Cos the simple sounds, Are the best a-round, And the best in town
Dumb It Down

Empty World (Lyrics and Music: Tim Hunter)
Empty world, can anybody fill this Empty Heart?
I hope that someone will ‘cos emptiness means the world just ain’t worth living in
Lonely world can anybody fill this lonely heart?
I hope that someone will ‘cos loneliness
just makes me feel like I’ll be givin in
A world without music without friendship
It’s too cold there’s no one to hold
A world without harmony without empathy
It’s too cold, there’s no one to hold

The Resting Tree (Music and Lyrics: Tim Hunter)
Be at peace with the moment
and quit this endless race
Round and round we go
in this pointless chase
Let the wind blow through your branches
Let circumstance dictate
And accept your fate
Be the Resting tree patience is the Key
Less is more the real test is
Can you set your mind free?
Ignore your so called friends
Who only want to bring you down
Feel your roots connecting to the ground
Slow down sit back and contemplate
Things will come to those who wait
Don’t get into a state
Be the Resting tree
Patience is the Key
Less is more the real test is
Can you set your mind free?
Clear your mind of all irrelevance
Feel the wind blow through your branches
And take the chances

Home In The Sun (Music and Lyrics: Tim Hunter)
Sir Francis Drake with his boats and guns
Founded New Albion
A home in the sun
Where people can free creativity
That’s where I want to be
Where the mountains meet the sea
In a beach house in a secluded bay
Somewhere off the coastal highway
My Home in the Sun
Oh it will be my sanctuary
Won’t be the lonely one no more
No I will be free, down by the sea
Home In The Sun, Home In The Sun
I want to go and be Philip Marlowe
In the land of the golden haired ones
My spiritual home a home in the sun
Where you can have fun,
That’s where I want to be,
To see the fountains and palm trees,
In a beach house in a secluded bay,
Yes, I’m gonna be there someday.
My Home in the Sun ,
Oh it will be my sanctuary
Won’t be the lonely one no more,
No I will be free, down by the sea
Gonna be there someday
In some secluded bay

Somewhere in the Slipstream (Music and Lyrics: Tim Hunter)
Remember when you were young,
There was so much to be done
To compete with everyone,
Never time to walk in the sun?
The system took control,
they almost stole our souls
We gave them our minds and the cost was to lose our dreams
So find what we lost, it's back there in the Slipstream
Somewhere in the Slipstream
So much ideology, wondering who you could be
Why could you never see, being yourself would make you free?
The system took control, they almost stole our souls
We gave them our minds and the cost was to lose our dreams
So find what we lost, it's back there in the Slipstream, Somewhere in the Slipstream
Don't do what you're told, don't be bought and sold
Stand up and be bold and try to break the mould
In the Slipstream, Somewhere in the Slipstream
We gave them our minds and the cost was to lose our dreams, So find what we lost, it's back there in the Slipstream,
Somewhere in the Slipstream

Search for your Soul (Music and Lyrics: Tim Hunter)
Just be wise the time is right, the prize is in the line of sight
So talk the talk and fight the fight and just keep walking
towards the light
Search for your Soul and take control, achieve your goal,
Search for your Soul and be more bold, achieve your goal
The obstacles are in your mind, a brand new future can be designed
An open door is what you’ll find, ignore the ones who are unkind
Search for your Soul and take control, achieve your goal,
Search for your Soul and be more bold, achieve your goal
Achieve your aim and stake your claim, you know you’ve got to make your name
Achieve your aim and raise your game, seek praise, you’ve gotta find fame
Search for your Soul and take control, achieve your goal
Search for your Soul and be more bold, achieve your goal

Outside the system (Music and Lyrics: Tim Hunter)
It’s obvious by now that they’re not gonna let you in
It’s obvious by now that they’re not gonna let you win
‘Cos you’re Outside The System, not part of the chosen few
But Outside The System, you can still find your own way through
One Man, Outside the system, just one man, outside the system
It’s obvious by now nobody’s listening,
All they’re really wanting is to see you giving in
‘Cos you’re Outside The System, not part of the chosen few
But Outside The System, you can still find your own way through
Outside the system, you are in control
Outside the system, nobody owns your soul
Outside the system, you don’t obey the rules
Outside the system, you don’t have to play the fool
One Man, Outside the system, Just one man Outside the system
You know that your words gonna fall on stony ground,
You want to be someone but everybody puts you down
‘Cos you’re Outside The System, not part of the chosen few
But Outside The System, you can still find your own way through

FOLLOW THAT FEELING
(Lyrics and music Tim Hunter)
You’ve got to Follow That Feeling
Go where it takes you , just go,
You know some things are right out of our hands
Somethings just can’t be planned
Don’t analyse or try to understand
Or you will miss the chance
You’ve got to Follow That Feeling
Go where it takes you , just go,
You’ve got to Follow That Feeling
Show what it makes you show
You know tomorrow might just be too late
So don’t you hesitate
Don’t always say that you had better wait
This time just set a date
You’ve got to Follow That Feeling
Go where it takes you , just go,
You’ve got to Follow That Feeling
Show what it makes you show
What you’re lookin’ for
Is something that’s gonna set you free
In a world of discord
Only tryin’ to find some harmony
You’ve got to follow it
You’ve got to follow it
Follow That Feeling
Go where it takes you , just go,
You’ve got to Follow That Feeling
Show what it makes you show
You’ve got to Follow it
Follow That Feeling
You’ve got to Follow it
Follow That Feeling

OPEN MIND
With an Open Mind , With an Open Mind
Though our friends may not be near
In the wired world everyone can hear
If they can’t see through their tears
We can sing a song that makes everything clear
And bring an end to fear
With an Open Mind
We won’t be blind to ideas of a different kind
And if we search who knows what hope we’re gonna find
With an Open Mind , With an Open Mind
If there is a common theme
People everywhere can share a single dream
Tune into the world machine
And we’ll reach out to people we’ve not seen
And they’ll know what we mean
With an Open Mind
We won’t be blind to ideas of a different kind
And if we search who knows what hope we’re gonna find
With an Open Mind , With an Open Mind
Though we live in different lands
Music’s something that we all understand
Every woman every man
People holding out a helping hand
Doing what they can
With an Open Mind
We won’t be blind to ideas of a different kind
And if we search who knows what hope we’re gonna find
With an Open Mind , With an Open Mind
With an Open Mind , With an Open Mind

THE STORM IS COMING
The storm is coming , who knows what it will bring
The storm is coming , there’s tears in the wind
The tree grows tall , the tree grows high
It spreads its branches into the sky
Outlives us all , both you and I
We have no right to say the tree has got to die
The storm is coming , who knows what it will bring
The storm is coming , there’s tears in the wind
The storm is coming , who knows what it will bring
The storm is coming , there’s tears in the wind
Slash and burn , the forest to the ground
Destroy the sanctuary the wildlife had found
Where there was stillness , where there was no sound
Make way for roads , make way for the towns
The storm is coming , who knows what it will bring
The storm is coming , there’s tears in the wind
The storm is coming , who knows what it will bring
The storm is coming , there’s tears in the wind
There’s nothing left for us to take
Now it’s time for us to pay for the mistakes
The storm is coming , who knows what it will bring
The storm is coming , there’s tears in the wind
The storm is coming , who knows what it will bring
The storm is coming , there’s tears in the wind
The storm is coming
The storm is coming
The storm is coming
