lyrics

The idea for this song came from a tune written by my first 'real' band the ‘Shoplifters’.

We were a self professed 'left wing band' who wrote socialist songs powered by our lead singer James Farror. Our song ‘Two Minutes Hate’ was (in my opinion) one of our best songs, I loved it.

For anyone who doesn't know what 'Two Minutes Hate' is, please please go and pick up a copy of '1984'.

I was messing about with the chord progression of that song during the writing period of this album when this tune started to come together.
The song doesn’t really sound a lot like what the full indie band version did, but I kept the name in honour of the meaning within the song as well as the good first experiences of band life I had in the 'Shoplifters'.
