LYRICS:

Fruit Lady

My heart is made of mango
and my fingers are ten ripe bananas.
My head's a big fat melon
and my toes are segments of a tangerine.

CHORUS
I'm the fruit lady, yeah yeah.
I'm the fruit lady, yeah yeah.
I'm the fruit lady, yeah yeah yeah yeah!

If I'm feeling hungry
I'll eat two of my fingers and grow some more.
And when I run too fast
my lychee eyes pop out and roll along the floor!

CHORUS

Sometimes I get sad and I cry
tears of lemonade.
I cry until I've filled a glass
then go outside and drink it in the shade.

CHORUS

A quick live demo of another song for our upcoming grandchild : -)...or anyone else (of any age!) who wants to listen and sing along.
Got to remember to take an apple with me now when I go busking for that "crunch" loop.
Played on a 3 string Cigar Box Guitar that I made. To see and hear more of that CBG see this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2tqLX_7sY8

Lyrics:

This Song Isn't True

CHORUS
This song isn't true,
made it up just for you.
People never lie,
and the sun will always shine,
yeah this song isn't true.

There's a God up in the sky.
You'll go to heaven when you die.
Every man should have a gun,
every father, every son.
There's a god up in the sky.

CHORUS

We haven't messed up this world.
Still got time to turn it round.
The air's pollution free,
there's plenty more fish in the sea.
We haven't messed up this world

CHORUS

This is a happy song.
Makes you want to sing along.
It's good not to think,
and to drown yourself in drink.
Yeah this is a happy song, but

CHORUS X 2

New Song Demo - English Summer

2012-09-19T17:31:04.753Z

LYRICS

English Summer

I'm standing in a shop doorway
hiding from the rain.
It's a five minute pause and then,
here we go again.

CHORUS

I'm flip flopping my way
through the summer days.
White arrows on my feet
show the way to go.
Tripping over clichés
as I try to find,
something new
to say about the summer.

An English summer has to be too hot,
or else it is too cold.
We need something to talk about,
distract us from the world.

CHORUS

You’ve got to make the most of it
when the sun shines down on you.
Cos it can all be whipped away,
nothing you can do.

CHORUS

I have my head up in the clouds
a big part of the day.
It’s a pretty good way to spend your time
until they blow away.

CHORUS

Going slightly crazy in a field of buttercups : - )
