about

Here is our brand new single with a message for everyone in the build up to the 2015 UK Election - not only is important that you get informed and get out and vote, it is also important to make your voice heard and demand more from those that we elect. Don't work for them, they work for you.

Head over to www.facebook.com/launchcontrolhq and let us know what you think. Please share, like, comment, tweet, and send to your MP ;-)

lyrics

Moving Targets (Lyrics):

We are the campaign trail, they'll lay their footprints
And sell the line that it's safer to walk in
The shadows they cast, and just to forget
The questions we've asked
That they haven't answered yet

We are the crosses
They are the boxes
We have the power to be moving targets
We are the crosses
They are the boxes
We have the power to leave our questions marks

They'll twist their slogans and pins from their rosettes
To pick the lock of their key demographic
And play on our grief and fear like a psychic
They can sell false hope
We don't have to buy it

We are the crosses
They are the boxes
We have the power to be moving targets
We are the crosses
They are the boxes
We have the power to leave our questions marks

We are the vote, we are the news
We choose
Don't go to them, they'll come to you
We are the beaten black and blue
Abused
Don't work for them they work for you

We are the crosses
They are the boxes
We have the power to be moving targets
We are the crosses
They are the boxes
We have the power to leave our questions marks

L. Switzer
