lyrics

Baton

The Race is good
The race is fun
Pick up the baton
And run
It doesn't matter if you falter
It doesn't matter if you fall
Pick yourself back up
Turn around and face them all

They may laugh
At your misfortune
They may think they know
What's best for you
If they're hurtful with their jibing
Incessantly poking fun
Turn the other cheek
Pick up the baton
And run

Even through the hard times
Ploughing on against the flow
When you know it's time to go
It's time to go

It's a long way
To the finish line
What's theirs might not be yours
Might not be mine
You could be ridiculed
For trying to achieve
The things you want
When others left what they have left
And can't remember what it was

The race is good
The race is fun
Pick up the baton
And run
Sometimes it may be difficult
With hazards to avoid
You may lose sight
Of the way at times
But success is in the mind
Keep ploughing on

about

Wob UK

Acoustic Country/folk Punk probably describes me best at the moment

"A spring heeled, iron lunged avalanche of energy and melody.
Wob's sound is a glorious and intelligent blend of punk, pop and folk."
