Instinct and Feel I go by instinct I go by feel keep my eyes wide open a great deal listen to noises in the night keep what's important in my sight I go by instinct I go by feel I don't trust my own head cause you never know what it might come up with when it decides for you my body might disagree nothing's written in stone hammered in steel I go by instinct i go by feel I don't like great heights but I don't look down I love the colours I love the sound I love the smell of gasoline the rust and paint on your machine I go by instinct I go by feel (instrumental) I am with you because it makes no sense but I got used to the strange ways we blend I noticed the secrets you conceal the world is cruel the world is mean I go by instinct I go by feel you think I like numbers and cold hard facts but you're misled by the way I act I'd love to follow the birds south and watch new words drop from your mouth I go by instinct I go by feel I go by instinct I go by feel I go by instinct with you and me

Boy Doesn't Meet Girl another beautiful girl walks into my world bounces like a ball bounces like a ball what am I to do what am I to say what am I to lose if I don't act today then the boy doesn't meet girl they don't meet he doesn't try cause he thinks he's beat doesn't understand the world he can't help it but he wants that girl he wants that girl wants that girl wants that girl wants that girl this is not the first time I'm standing in my own way it's not the first time someone gets away the fear of winning is powerful force from when the curtain goes up to the pathetic encore then the boy doesn't meet girl they don't meet he doesn't try cause he thinks he's beat doesn't understand the world he can't help it but he wants that girl he wants that girl wants that girl wants that girl wants that girl boy doesn't meet girl they don't play he doesn't know why he acts this way they never touch never share their days ships in the night going seperate ways he wants that girl wants that girl wants that girl wants that girl

Maybe Arizona maybe cacti are secretly wishing they could fly maybe tumbleweed are thinking about moving to the seaside maybe rain clouds don't ever want to waste a drop maybe you and I are waiting for everyone to not look or maybe Arizona be honest I know you want to maybe Arizona maybe the rivers are meant to show the way maybe the wind has messages if only we could hear maybe sand dunes remind us of what happens to mountains maybe you remind me of Sunday mornings on the beach or maybe Arizona be honest I know you want to maybe Arizona take your coat and let's go now maybe the lizards know exactly where to hide in the desert where big ships remain strangers in the night maybe loose ends play hide and seek in the shade while icicles are far too clever to come this way or maybe Arizona be honest I know you want to maybe Arizona take your keys it's been a long time it's been a long time let's go now words and music: Neal Hoffmann

Johnny Cash well I'm walking down this road no-one can carry my load it's made for my back and I'm not turning back I don't know what is real I don't trust the way I feel it's let me down before led me through all sorts of wrong doors But I'm not turning into Johnny Cash I'm not turning into anyone I'm not turning into anyone else for you ................ for you pretty women make my day I don't care if they look away distracted by a prettier face maybe I'm not to their taste I'm not going to Jackson I don't have no ticket to Reno haven't felt like shooting no-one yet but each day I do get meaner I'm not turning into Johnny Cash I'm not turning into Johnny my dear I'm not turning into anyone else you hear .................... you hear My trajectory is of no concern to thee every single breath I take I will fight for till my back breaks there's no-one better you can hire to drag you from your ring of fire who remembers your name and what he says and shows you how the stars sleep in their beds I'm not turning into Johnny Cash I'll keep walking down to the bitter end I'll keep walking down this road no matter who you send ......... who you send words and music: Neal Hoffmann

Give Way I'm staring down into the stream below watching leaves float by brown red orange and gold I'm a fruit on a tree drying slowly in the wind I'm a nail in the side of my boat that's about to sink I used to have a winning streak the planets they all lined up a twinkle in the eye the fun just never ever stopped sometimes it feels like I will be too late too late the wind is rough and it blows hard but I hold on until it gives way Don't know if I've come far or just walked for a long long time the road has all but gone there's only sand and I can't see no line in my dreams I can see myself running for the gate it's sliding down in slow mo cutting off the only way ahead sometimes it feels like I will be too late too late the wind is rough and it blows hard but I hold on until it gives way sometimes it feels like I will be too late too late the night is cold and it is dark but it won't fail to give way to give way to a new day sometimes it feels like there is a big weight riding on me, pushing me down further down but i hold on until it gives way sometimes it feels like I will be too late too late the night is cold and it is dark but it won't fail to give way to give way to a new day

Rocket Boys walked out of the wreckage there out of the bombed out sheds into the light of day into the emptiness we had to mend our world we couldn't just walk away there was nowhere we could go growing up only took us days all of us Rocket Boys Rocket Boys had to make our own toys when we were Rocket Boys then came America chewing gum movie stars blue jeans rock and roll we never had it so good as good as Rocket Boys Rocket Boys no one heard our voice when we were Rocket Boys (inst) we traded in hope and smoke rings raced our bikes and climbed up things raided strawberry fields on the way to being some some of the Rocket Boys Rocket Boys trusted in progress and countless lies when we were Rocket Boys Rocket Boys Rocket Boys loved our mums and loved the noise that we made when we were Rocket Boys

about

Amphibic Records London, UK

Best described as ‘quirky singer-songwriter plus orchestra’. Chamber-Pop meets Indie. The band has morphed into this from their former incarnation as an Indie-Pop band. They feature a string quartet and a growing brass section around drums, guitar, piano and vocals, creating a lush backdrop for Neal’s voice to be at home in. Amphibic have leant their cello player to the Divine Comedy once. ... more
