Biography:
The Fixx is a British new wave band that formed in 1980. Envisioned by college friends Cy Curnin (vocals) and Adam Woods (drums), the pair soon placed an ad for additional members. Jamie West-Oram (guitar), Rupert Greenall (keyboards) and Charlie Barret (bass) joined the band as a result. Barret left after the first album and was replaced by Dan K. Brown. The Fixx are perhaps best remembered for their song "One Thing Leads To Another", from what has been their most successful album, 1983's 'Reach the Beach'.

Driven Out from the Calm Animals album
Em D
Driven out by thieves.
Em D
I watch them pillage the planet.
Em D
Fueled by a fattening greed,
Em D
Trees fall to the hatchet.
Am Em
Chopping against the grain,
D Am
Our spirits in a vacuum.
Am Em
Sadly ignore the pain,
D Am
The end arrives, we all lose...we all lose.
Em
I hope it comes...it comes...it comes...around.
Em Am
Driven out. Holding out.
D D
Day by day survival.
Em Am
Castaways have silent lives
D D
With the strength to rival you.
(same pattern repeats)
Driving in my car.
I used to be able to walk this far.
Now I turn on the light.
I used to be able to sleep at night.
I'm cooking with microwaves.
To warm up food not seen the soil.
Plugged into my TV.
Used to the lies they're telling me...telling me.
I hope it comes...it comes...it comes...around.
Driven out...
Hoping that we find
More to life than meets the eye.
Can we escape the grind,
Build a life that's more worthwhile
Be rid of this empty pride:
Full of selfishness inside.
Bathe in a turning tide,
Until then we all hide...we all hide.
I hope it comes...it comes...it comes...around.
Driven out...
