Captain Black

from Exiles by JEoin

/

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    My first full studio album!
    Recorded at the Cowshed, London and engineered by Joe Leach. I began planning this album around the end of 2000 after I was approached by Peter Kenny following a gig at the Samuel Pepys in Hackney (a great little venue which was right beside the Hackney Empire, sadly now no more). He came on board as executive producer and the rest, as they say, is history. We set up Natural5Four Records in 2001 to record and release this. It was showcased in December 2004 at the wonderful 12 Bar Club in London's West End (also sadly no more! What's happening to all the perfectly formed small London venues? We can't all afford to play the 02 you know!) The beginning of a new creative journey...

    Note from Natural5Four Records...
    There are less than 100 copies of 'Exiles' remaining from this original release. Once these sell out, the album will be repackaged and reissued with changes to the artwork and track listing.

lyrics

One more call before morning
One last call late at night
In the back of the head
Outside the window at zero approaching
Straight through with no time to think
Less time to pray
Over the rooftops we jump to the warning
Near empty streets in direct line of fire
It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent
Remember that Captain Black said

Inside four walls safe as the houses feel
Watching the walls and yourself as your own refugee
Outside the window at zero approaching
Straight through with no time to think
Less time to pray
Cover your eyes and your ears with the Red Hand
Only our rivers and bloodstreams run free
It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent
Remember that Captain Black said

Talk at the bar for the rest of the miracle
Talk among friends and your enemy wishes you well
Outside the window at zero approaching
Straight through with no time to think
Less time to pray
Make no mistake We all stand on the wrong side
Blank as a stare Open wide with the fright
It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent
Remember that Captain Black said
It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent
Remember that Captain Black’s dead
