No Other Road (No hay otro camino)

Johnny B Bad and Little Bo Peep
Got themselves caught out, asleep in a jeep
It cost 'em a fine
And it wasn't cheap
It was steep
(No other road)

 I haven't seen
your man this year
They say it's had a calming effect
on the atmosphere
But now he's coming back
up here, I hear
And it's clear
(No other road)

 No hay otro camino
No hay otro camino
Uno ganado
Dos perdidos
No hay otro camino

 Every time
we've been introduced
I know I don't do
what I ought to do
I can never remember
even talking to you
And it's true
(No other road)

 Listen, mister, I won't make a scene
I heard you sold out
For a couple of beans
I'd wish you luck
but it really does seem
A little mean
(No other road)

 No hay otro camino
No hay otro camino
Uno ganado
Dos perdidos
No hay otro camino

 No hay otro camino
No hay otro camino
Uno ganado
Dos perdidos
No hay otro camino

 Tell me a story, and make it last
Take me on a trip that takes us
Back into the past
Can't you undo something?
Push back on the springs
Pull some strings?
No
(No other road)

 No hay otro camino
No hay otro camino
Nada ganado
Todo perdido
No hay otro camino

 No hay otro camino
No hay otro camino
Nada ganado
Todo perdido
No hay otro camino

 No hay otro
No hay otro
No hay otro
Cami-i-i-i-no

For The Rainbow: a song of solidarity

Image
Six years ago, I wrote a song for the England football team. It was a pop song, and thirty years too late. I promised myself that I would only write another one if I had a more meaningful idea.  This is that song. It's a song of unity and solidarity. Football might not be the best medium to shine a light on social issues but music works pretty well. This one's for the rainbow.
