Hey there Neil...I like this a lot.
You take a hum-drum event and turn it into an introspective song!
Love it!
And i agree with R.... very cool vocals! 8)

Lyrics:

  we've been everywhere


   get up here, get up on your feet
the tide will turn for those who resist defeat
    we've been there, we know it too well
  the weight of the world must carry itself
     we don't care, Laissez-faire
         we've been there

   horizon, the promise of a distant shore
 no longer troubles me, it holds no allure
   body enraptured, still, my heart escapes
     with no fucks to give, I need not relate
       we don't care, Laissez-faire
           we've been there

   there's no going back to the shiny and new 
    so easy on the naked eye, and useful too
            we've been everywhere

 dragging y' dog through the most unrelenting pain
    it's sure to end in tears and in shame
       we don't care, Laissez-faire
            we've been there

 now what we have lost here had tactile value
    all novelty aside for the tested and true
            we've been everywhere
                   we've been everywhere


          _________

Hey there Rightly.....Superb. I don't agree but many do.

Shirley Manson and her group, Garbage, had some Alt Rock hits in the late 90s and early 00s. One that comes to mind is
Stupid Girl, which reached #2 on the US Alt Rock charts, and #4 in the UK.

I'm getting there. I had a hard time coming up with an idea for a melody but I think I finally got a good one today. So...stand by....

I wondering how it'll sit with music
But the lyric was rich enough to hold my attention.
It'll be nice to hear a recording.

The Police had a number of hits from the late 70s to mid 80s. Among my favorites was Wrapped Around Your Finger from 1983. The song reached number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US.

I remember your voice.
This reminds me of Pink Floyd somehow.
Funky, but English. I think that's a good thing. Cool voice.
It's a good demo. I've no idea how you'd improve on it.
A tight little numba. Great.

Liking the the backing track, it sets things up nicely with its bouncey rhythms.
Cool lyrics and vocals top it off well.
Nice one
Neil
Glad you like the song Neil.
