Artist picture
Power-pop punk alternative
A writing team of two for this first CD. Jeff and Kevin. Jeff being the lyricist and both taking creative stabs at the melody lines and movement. Besides composing, Jeff tasks multi-roles in WRENCH, taking on engineering, editing, production & the graphic design work for WRENCH. Musically, his additions to the duo are lead and background vocals, drums, bass and keyboards. Kevins role is geared towards filling in the luster with guitar and on occasion, adding some background vocals to the mix. Both team mates are very different in style and vision but have esablished a common ground based on influence.

Story behind the song
Sheer pain
Lyrics
Getting Nowhere It’s Friday evening and she’s dead on her feet Being Mother and Father - She’s got a child to feed Living lonely with no man by her side Don’t know how she does it - keeps it all inside Sam plays solitaire and cheats just to win Spending all his money on cigarettes and gin When Martha died it seems he lost his best friend He deals another hand out - and cheats himself again Too many people hardly getting nowhere A common thread that binds them all Too many people hardly making ends meet Getting nowhere Excuse me people but the problem is clear Some intervention could be kind and sincere Why must a life be something heavy to bear I’d give it all away for someone who cares We all have challenges that we have to face It’s not so easy when you can’t find your place If someone needs you it’s so hard to ignore It doesn’t matter if you’re rich or you’re poor Father John has preached for 30 some years All of the confessions - justify his fears Cold and lonely - they come in from the rain Gives another sermon - and he tries to heal their pain Too many people hardly getting nowhere A common thread that binds them all Why must they always do so much for nothing?
