about

The energetic “Restless Man” is a very good reflection on the life of its author, Noor Ali., whose daily life involves travelling across Europe and the Middle East doing something that “The Man” calls “business”, sorting out problems and putting things straight(ish).

In all seriousness, Noor is a restless character, regardless of what line of work he would do and this is very simply a song about that.

lyrics

Restless Man

When daylight is breaking through
It’s time to roll there’s things to do
Hit the road and hit it hard
I’ve got a plan and it’s time to start

No “take it cool” it’s all wham bam
Cause I am just a restless man
Hang on tight for the ride
‘cause I am so restless inside

Board that plane going south
They’d better be ready for me when I get off
I’m travelling there to seek the truth
They’ll be no prisoners when I am through

No “take it cool” it’s all wham bam
Cause I am just a restless man
Hang on tight for the ride
‘cause I am so restless inside

It’s Friday night we’ve got a show
Pack the car we’re ready to go
Sound-check fast and check the clock
Jiffling feet I’m ready to rock

No “take it cool” it’s all wham bam
Cause I am just a restless man
Hang on tight for the ride
‘cause I am so restless inside
