about

'Johnny Seven!' by AKF International, a Surrealist Art Collective formed by Robert Courtney of Skin Patrol and One Million Fuzztone Guitars and Jimmy Lee Shreeve (aka Dr Snake) of The Black Metal Messiahs. Inspired by two weeks of RS being driven around China with Celine Dion as the only soundtrack. Johnny Seven was a violent character that was Rock Section's nemesis at the Sandpiper club in 1977. Big Jake

lyrics

Here we are, The AKF,
We're coming into your heads!
Yes we are, The AKF,
We're coming into your minds!

From London to Miami,
From New York to L.A.,
In a beaten-up, two-tone, 2CV,
On the road to Manta Ray,
From The Barrio to Brasilia,
To the Temples of Peru,
With a crystal skull powered beat machine,
Hidden in the boot.

They say his name is Johnny Seven,
And he's a' coming after you,
With his gold-plated Manners-Maker,
To re-arrange your point of view,
He got the history of the World,
Hidden in the heel of his shoe,
Self-replicating D.N.A.,
Straight from the primordial stew.

Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna Liberate!

Here we are, The AKF,
We're coming into your heads!
Yes we are, The AKF,
We're coming into your minds!

From Paris to Geneva,
From Berlin to Old Moscow,
Leningrad to Vladivostok,
Throuch vodka, ice and snow,
From Beijing to Shanghai,
Hong Kong to Fu Manchu,
With the thumping beat of Celine Dion,
On the road to Katmandu.

They say his name is Johnny Seven,
And he's coming after you,
With his gold-plated Manners-Maker,
To re-arrange your view,
He got the history of the World,
Hidden in the heel of his shoe,
Self-replicating D.N.A.,
Straight from the primordial stew.

Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna Liberate!
Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna Liberate!
Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna Liberate!
Gonna liberate The People!
Gonna Liberate!
