A MILLION FLIES You and your brother got a tacky little band Got a lot of nothing, but you got yourself a plan Pick yourself an attitude and dump it on the kids They won't know where you stole it when they find out what you did I think I heard it We heard it all before I think I heard it We heard it all before Come on - a million flies can't be wrong When the bubble bursts you'll be nowhere at all Only in the papers and a million bedroom walls Do the smoke and mirrors with the other hollow men Just lie back and laugh as the money rolls in I think I've seen it We've seen it all before I've seen it coming We've seen it all before Come on - a million flies can't be wrong Today - is gonna be a bad day Today - is gonna be a sad day (for you) Today - is gonna be a bad day Today - is gonna be a sad day (for you) How long till it comes undone? Can't wait till you're falling over Now

I Rise 05:24
I RISE I could waste a thousand words and never speak my mind I will keep you guessing all the time And these words I give to you, you will take them wrong You may think that this is a lovesong And I am on my knees again, praying on the ground Lying through my teeth again, but never make a sound And I rise to fall down Can't find my way out Dead from the face down But I don't seem to care Now I've found myself out I can't stop from turning into you I know I can't speak the truth, and so you have to lie Holding your attention wastes my time And these words I give to you, you will take them wrong You will think that this is a lovesong And I am on my knees again, praying on the ground Lying through my teeth again, but never make a sound And I rise to fall down Can't find my way out Dead from the face down But I don't seem to care Now I've found myself out I can't stop from turning into you

Crazy 04:08
CRAZY Banish any trace of doubt and walk a sacred way Certain what its all about, not listening anyway Patronising pity for the ones who don't believe A bomb inside a car for those you call your enemy Suffer little children - and mom & dad as well Bring those hollow mountains down and burn them all to hell Crazy God takes the unlucky ones but what else can you do? He's given you the secret word you'll be the chosen few Drugs & guns & money took the soul of what you do There's dirty business to be done well it might as well be you Gonna get a big surprise if he's watching what you do Don't tell me what you believe, cos I don't believe in you Crazy Murder, murder

TAKE BACK THE WORLD You know who you are You know who you are You never change, you think you're strange You think you're dangerous to know Are you cursed or blessed, or just self obsessed Does anybody care at all? Staring though your eyebrows With your lip out at the world When nothing goes your way the same old answer for it all Take back the world You wanna change the world Stare at your feet, admit defeat Is there something you'd like more? Take back the world You wanna change the world Its got to go Although its no deposit no return Take back the world Life is like a song, you think its played too long Nevermind, the flipside might be cool You're all in black, there's no coming back Send a postcard when you go Staring though your eyebrows With your lip out at the world When nothing goes your way the same old answer for it all Take back the world You wanna change the world It doesn't fit, what's wrong with it? Is there something you want more? Take back the world You wanna change the world Its got to go Although its no deposit no return Take back the world

CHANGE COMES ROUND I used to think my life was good Try to do the things I should So many things I thought I'd know I never dreamed that you would go Change comes round Paint across the evening sky - love will never die Sun goes down Don't you know the reasons why love will never die I used to think my life was tough I used to try but not enough You faced the final enemy You were the stronger one not me Change comes round Paint across the evening sky - love will never die Sun goes down Don't you know the reasons why love will never die

Four Seasons 04:28
FOUR SEASONS Wish my days away Slowly sit and watch the world decay Missed work again today Time is catching up, can't run away The snow, the wind and rain have fallen down on me In the corner of my mind I can see that I am blind Maybe I'll break, maybe I'll change I've lived four seasons in one day Truth has shown betray Found the words but don't know what to say Forever slipped away Keep holding on with little faith The cloud that's over me has hidden my belief Although I crave the light I turn away and hide Maybe I'll break, maybe I'll change I've lived four seasons in one day Never dark fall, never tears break Can't find the strength to walk away Cloud over me hid my belief Can't find the words I want to say Maybe I'll break, maybe I'll change In one day

Sorry 06:07
SORRY Don't you tell me that it's over I can feel it when we talk, I can see it in your eyes Time goes slowly girl without you Got a picture in my mind, but its fading all the time Girl I'm sorry for the things I've done But I know that I'll be true And I'll keep on loving you You were always there beside me Always catch me when I fall, now I stand to lose it all How could I have been so blind girl? Now you've opened up my eyes, brought out feelings deep inside Girl I'm sorry for the things I've done But I know that I'll be true And I'll keep on loving you

She Rocks 05:08
SHE ROCKS She floats my boat - she gets my goat She calms my fear - she bends my ear I get nervous when she's not there She shows up, I'm pulling my hair She confuses me, she uses me She juices me up She rocks my world She's a breeze, she's a blast She was the first, she'll be the last She ameliorates, she exacerbates Elates, infuriates Look out, here she comes She confuses me, she uses me She juices me up She rocks my world Favours to none to all she smiles extends Oft she rejects, but never once offends. Bright as the sun, her eyes the gazers strike, And, like the sun, they shine on all alike. Yet graceful ease, and sweetness void of pride, Might hide her faults, if belles had faults to hide If to her share some female errors fall, Look on her face, and you'll forget 'em all.

about

This is nothing short of a superb album for all those who love guitar driven rock.The guitar breaks are truly sumptuous - even when Pod performs an acoustic solo, 'Chimes For Jamie'. The lead vocals work a treat and are shared by Pod and bass man Andy Scott; their harmonies are superbly layered. The trio is completed by drummer Rob Glynn.
As a unit Psi Phi eclipse much of the mainstream rock music I hear today, let alone some of those at the underground level. In Pod, Psi Phi have a guitarist who is as good as you will hear and I am more than pleased to blow the trumpet for them - not that they need any more instrumentation than they've got. Here are ten great songs from a band that deserve much more exposure.

about

Psi Phi Sheffield, UK

Pigeonholed as unclassifiable since 1999!
Responsible for perpetrating an extremely intelligent, varied and talented form of rock, Psi Phi gave genuine entertainment on all levels.
Pod, Andy and Rob were purveyors of well crafted classic rock with catchy tunes, some singalong and a bit poppy, some positively powerchordtastic - rather marvellously so.
