Name: Peace March
Duration: P00H03M58S
Description: John Butler: It’ll be a long time before I go on a march. I might be someone who agrees with what they’re marching for but I can be suspicious of some motives, the holding of signs which may actually be saying "look at me." I won’t be politically correct or coerced into a position because it’s the thing to do until I choose to do so. Then I might.

Leicester England's Diesel Park West has been cranking out stellar, topical rock'n'roll since their debut, Shakespeare Alabama, from 1989. The band's latest effort, Not Quite the American Dream, was made during the lockdown of 2020 and explores more thought provoking avenues all put to sturdy rhythms and hung on superb melodies. "Secondary Modern Man" is the best song Kinks song Ray Davies never wrote and "Best of You" could quite possibly make Paul Weller bristle with jealousy. If you are at all interested in classic British rock'n'roll with a little bit of social commentary thrown in the mix, this is the record for YOU.

lyrics

Meet me by the marble statue gates where we will be safe
We can catch up later with something to eat
I know a place

But I don’t wanna walk in your peace march again
No I don’t wanna walk in your peace march again
Again...Again
Hear what I say

You’re so full of virtue you can’t walk
it's complicated
Believing things to set your conscience straight
But only pretending

I dont need to show my credentials to the gathering
No, I don’t want my face in no Guardian
Hear what I say
Again...Again...Again
It's all just play

I don’t wanna show my credentials to the gathering
I don’t wanna walk in youre peace march again
No I don’t wanna hold a sign saying "look at me”
I don’t wanna walk in your peace march again

A bottle of wine to loosen the anarchy
you’re sure is inside me

But I don’t want a place in your peace march again
No I don’t wanna hold a sign saying “look at me"
Oh I don’t wanna stop the city from working
I don’t wanna walk in your peace march again
No, I don’t want a place in your peace march again
I don’t wanna walk in your peace march again
Again...Again...Again
Hear what I say

Where's your daddy?
Where's your four by four?
Bet you didn’t walk

But Colin and Lorraine both gotta catch the train
Got a mortgage and don’t notice their lives
Got a mortgage and don’t notice their lives slipping away
I don’t wanna walk in your peace march again
Again...Again...Again
Hear what I say
Again...Again...Again
Hear what I say
I don’t want a view from your peace march again
Until I choose
Until I choose
Yeah, until I choose
Until I choose
