lyrics

O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter!
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter!
Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit,
Nein, auch im Winter, wenn es schneit.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter!

O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
Wie oft hat nicht zur Weihnachtszeit
Ein Baum von dir mich hoch erfreut!
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!

Lo-fi and mainly instrumental, from Luton. No, wait, come back! Council Tax Band

If It's Broken, Break It More
by Ice, Sea, Dead People

These guys organised our first ever gig, so they'll be in the gritty, Hollywood movie 'Council Tax Band: Genesis' when it eventually gets the green light. Council Tax Band

Dog Hobbies
by Arndales

More Luton-based, Knockouts-related guff (the good sort of guff). Council Tax Band
