lyrics

At the center of the earth it's 5000 degrees
got a compass and a map and Hobbit with me
I'll take a journey back in time put my life on the line
So I wont get to see you


In the Depths of the ocean there's a city that sleeps
On occasion when a body washes up on the beach
There's a man from Atlantis I have to debrief
So I wont get to see you


We've been living through some dangerous times
Another planet to find
It's not about you
A million excuses that all spring to my mind
Cause I can't spare any time to be with you


I've been delayed by the cosmic police
When my ship sprung a leak it picked up alien seeds
They think I've contracted a contagious disease
So they wont let me see you


We found a lost tribe in the Amazon
Solved quantum mechanics built atomic bombs
Unless they're defused they wont send us home
So they wont let me see you


You think it's all a lie
They're excuses that wont fly
Why not end this charade
Or just say that you are gay
Pile up the polygraphs sky high
You can see it in my eyes


There were leaves on the track and I'd fallen asleep
A volcano erupted there's no planes for a week
When the tsunami hit I was cycling home
So I wont get to see you

I was held without trial then got lost in a maze
I'd been bound up and gagged until the ransom was paid
And the Minotaur is saying that the whole thing was staged
So that I wont get to see you

Belter UK

With lyrics sharper than razor-wire and tunes that stick the boot in, Belter is punk for grown-ups who like a dance.

Their first single "TV Junkie" was released in 2012, gaining worldwide airplay and acclaim.

It was followed in January 2013 by a 3-track EP, ‘Invisible Cat’, which sees the band’s trademark sound expanded with a little help from their friends on strings, brass and slide guitar.
