Sound of horns
Shouting people
Endless queues
Frustrated passengers
Warning signal
Screaming engines
The groaning of a queue
The starting of peoples tempers
Endless red lights
No peace tonight
An endless city
Filled with cars
No bloody silence
It the A247
A man climbs…
Out of his car
One after one
A person joins him
They march down to the riverside
[Chorus]
No way out
No way in
Gotta go stay there
Wait your turn
Not like the old days
When people were happy
Got to stay there
Wait you turn
[Chorus]

Boston post-punk outfit Junk Ranchers broke up in 1986 before this, their debut album, was released; darkly melodic, it's a long-lost gem. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 22, 2020
An endearingly-weird, synth-spiked new album from the Chicago indie-rockers, with partial proceeds benefitting mental health advocacy. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 5, 2020
