    Geoff Achison’s brilliant, critically acclaimed songwriting project ‘Sovereign Town’ was recorded in the heart of the Victorian goldfields at Ballarat, close to where Achison grew up. The songs are thoughtful and at times, deeply personal, with Geoff’s vocal and acoustic guitar up front with sympathetic backing from drums, hammond organ, electric guitar and upright bass.

lyrics

Explosive hits on the TV screen
Just un-missable
Now we’ve seen things that we can’t un-see
Unforgivable

They’re dodging bullets now they’re cuttin’ through wires
Twisting them words around
They shoot down truths and they rescue lies
But they’ve got the best room in town

Wrong ain’t right and right ain’t wrong
There is no place where it don’t matter none

It oughta make no difference ‘cause we’re on the same side
We’ve all got got a point of view
This ‘cops & robbers’ and ‘cats and mice’
Is a choice I don’t wanna choose

Songbird singing his morning song
From the roof of the Capitol
Now we know things that we can’t un-know
Yeah, but what’re we gonna do about it?

Wrong ain’t right and right ain’t wrong
There is no place where it don’t matter none

A skeleton crew on a skeleton ship
Yes men overboard
All betrayed with a skeleton kiss
So why do they forgive him for?

Wrong ain’t right and right ain’t wrong
There is no place where it don’t matter none

Right ain’t wrong and wrong ain’t right
There is no way you’re gonna win this fight
