about

A collaborative affair, Collum attributes the world-class musical standard to his band The Welfare Mothers and its honorary members; “The Welfare Mothers, with Paul Quarry on drums, Mags Layton on violin and vocals, and Martin Cutmore on bass brought these songs to life in a way that any singer-songwriter would give their eye teeth for.

"We were joined on these tracks by honorary Welfare Mother Martin Belmont on the flying Fender Stratocaster and Fender VI bass.” Embracing the new-normal of virtual collaboration, Collum worked with Peter Holsapple (the dBs, REM). “Peter added soulful Hammond B-3 and raucous harmony vocals to the track ‘Spare Me’ which was an intercontinental collaboration between Peter and myself. Pat Collier captured it all beautifully and his wit and patience was much appreciated as always.”

lyrics

Garbage in, garbage out
Talk is cheap when you’ve got a big mouth
If you only knew what you were talking about
Garbage in, garbage out

Once upon a time nobody paid you any mind
It was easy to ignore you way back when
Now everything has changed and I think it’s kind of strange
You haven’t learned a single thing since then

Garbage in, garbage out
Talk is cheap when you’ve got a big mouth
If you only knew what you were talking about
Garbage in, garbage out

You were propped up on a stage
Where self-pity’s all the rage
Too afraid to look us in the eye
They say you live in learn
But when you’ve got nowhere to turn
It doesn’t help to keep on asking why

Garbage in, garbage out
Talk is cheap when you’ve got a big mouth
If you only knew what you were talking about
Garbage in, garbage out
