Ain't No Son Of Mine

from Arbiters Of Blame by TODGER

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    LIMITED EDITION "Arbiters Of Blame CD"

    Our bloody lovely high quality full art booklet with all the lyrics

    Roaring into the truck stop of your ear hole, Todger have been knocking out hard rocking, good times with a god damn silly band name since 2002. Drawing from 70s classic and southern rock, they blend their tight grooving rhythms and slick guitar work with tongue-in-cheek tall tales and belt-it-out BVs.

    In November 2016, Todger launch their latest full studio album; "Arbiters Of Blame". With it Todger have further honed their love of guitar-rich rock styles and searing solos of yesteryear. They slurp deeply from the likes of Thin Lizzy, GnR, and Rainbow, mixing it with the big BV sing-a-long inspiration of acts such as Doobie Brothers, Eagles, The Band and even a little of Rogers And Hammerstein. With it comes the Good Reverend's dark-humoured vignettes of murder, mayhem and innuendo reminiscent of Nick Cave, Alice Cooper, Clutch and the stranger brews of bands like They Might Be Giants and The Presidents Of USA.

    Todger. the first and last word in truck-based pan-genre-omni-rock. Hell Yeah!

    Includes unlimited streaming of Arbiters Of Blame via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

The smell of burning bridges, Of old oak and tar. The boy’s hiding in the barn, From the Republican Guard. Oh, he crossed state lines, he ain’t no son of my mine. Seven hundred dollars, won’t buy him many friends. At the end of the day, what’s a few rules that bend? He’s a hunted man, he’s got debts to pay, The CIA, the IRS, the KKK. Shivers down my spine, he ain’t no child of mine. They got the wires and microphones on the plasterboard walls. The Spetsnaz is answering his personal calls. He picks up the receiver, its goes click-ety-click-click, But the little bastard knows, he’s got wise to their tricks. Oh me, oh my, he ain’t no child of mine. Oh child, Just what have you done, there’s blood on your hands and powder burns from shotguns. I can’t, I won’t, Forgive you this time, from this day forth you ain’t no son of mine. The Marshall and the Governor shooting the breeze on line two. Mossad reports they lost the mark, down in a Vera Cruz. Got to give the boy some credit, got to give him his due, He really learnt everything the old man knew. Oh lord, oh why, he ain’t no child of mine. Oh, I cast you out. Kicking, kicking and screaming. Oh, I cast you out, Out of this prison called Eden. He ain’t no son, Ain’t no son of mine. And now that you’re leaving, Out of this prison called Eden. My heart’s heavy and bleeding. Last of my personal demons. And its way past time, The whole world will know, You ain’t no son of mine.
