about

Back in the summer of 1994 I went to a basement show and saw a band called State of the Nation open for Sensefield. I really dug their political message and offered them my living room floor to crash on. Fast forward to late 2020, I mailed a copy of our debut 7" single to a podcast called Blynd Submyshynz. Upon watching episode 18 where they mention our single, the special guest is a guy named Andy Patterson. I think he looks really familiar, low and behold he played drums in State of the Nation! I reconnect with him on Facebook and it turns out that he recorded a drum track that didn't end up getting used for the "Bow to Your Masters 2: Deep Purple" tribute compilation on Glory or Death Records. He sent me the drum track and we did our best to add guitar, bass, keyboards and vocals to it. Took a while to get it mixed and mastered and finally ready to release, but here it is!

lyrics

Gotta black breast Chinese eyes
Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise
Got a long story that I wanna tell
To a rhythm that I know so well
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know

Take a hold now if you can
Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man
I'm a long way from where I wanna go
Guess I'll stay awhile I really love you so
How's about another sip of all the wine you got
Take a tip from me and give it here I'll drink the lot
I'm not a winey, I'm a puttin' on a show

You really really grab me but I've gotta move
Before they know I'm here and spread the news
Maybe in while when I've moved around
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know
