ROUND IN CIRCLES With this fake - oh so fake - Imagery, on TV They pull us around Round and round Round in circles Round and round Round in circles Can’t you see CBS, ABC, CNN Or see right through the BBC ? As they spin us around - round in circles Round and round – round in circles Yet you let yourself get hypnotized By the fakery flowing out of your TV So please, please Stop the fakery I said please - stop the fakery Oh won't you please - stop the fakery Stop the fakery - stop the fakery Please - stop the fakery Coz I can’t stand it anymore ! Please, please - stop the fakery Stop the fakery !

THE DOOR As the mood goes up The anguish comes down You're feeling like a butterfly Soaring away You're not the only one Knocking on the door of lies The lies that define our lives You're not the only one You're not the only one Who's knocking on the door You're not the only one Keep knocking on the door - keep knocking on the door And one fine day we will knock it down Knocking on the door of lies You're not the only one Who's knocking on the door You're not the only one Knocking on the door of lies

about

Dear Social Service fans,

Yes, the title of our 2015 album, "Realitivity", is meant to be a spoof of that Einstein clown's special and general theories. Whether the fusion of "reality" and "relativity" could engender / precipitate any sort of NUclear chain reaction is UNclear - but rest assured that this is NOT anything that our band is pursuing. We are all for peace & love - and for the harmonious unity of every atom of this universe. So sit back and relax whilst this album vibrates in your high-fidelity audio loudspeakers - and fear not : nothing bad (nor, much less, catastrophic) is going to happen to your ears. In a worst case scenario, you might just experience a little tingling of your mind - as you start realizing that not everything is exactly what it seems to be.

Simon Shack
