A song composed, edited and sang, by Tim
A thousand thanks to WordPresser Tim did this for me, relating to my Hobbles around Nottingham. I laughed my head off, at the same time as being amazed at this surprise song.
Brilliant I thought!
Here are the lyrics, followed by the link to hear this masterpiece of wit and humour!
I wondered what each streetlight and house light might be hiding?
Inchcock’s Wonderings While Wandering
Key of C
Each morning there’s light out there,
Someone is in despair?
Someone washing his own hair?
Alcoholics here and there?
Up there, a plane in the air?
A shoplifter in his lair?
Perhaps a millionaire’s heir?
Old chap sleeps in recliner chair?
There’s a vicar with a prayer?
Someone eats a cream eclair?
Old folks playing solitaire?
Hearing burglars downstairs?
Inchock’s wonderings while he’s wandering through the many streets of Nottingham.
Streetlights shining on the sidings what do all those house lights have to hide?
Someone’s even happy somewhere?
With Cocaine a necessaire?
Street-sleeper, future billionaire?
Admits to voting for Tony Blair?
A Christian reciting the Lord’s Prayer?
Looking for a policeman full of despair?
Some of them might be out there
Taking in the night air
Someone with a cupboard bare?
Stealing cars, phones, a Frigidaire?
Some in places don’t want to be there?
Loyal abstainers or having an affair?
Inchock’s wonderings while he’s wandering through the many streets of Nottingham.
Streetlights shining on the sidings what do all those house lights have to hide?
Someone battling nasty spyware?
Someone short on his bus fare?
I’ll give it foive.
As a reminder. You wrote the poem I used for the verses. I added the chorus, wrote the music, played the guitar, bass and drums, and sang it.
Appreciated. Well, I couldn’t have done any of what you did, mate.
The few tenants who listened to it, all loved it!
Cheers!
But you wrote the poem, and were the inspiration. I’m happy to hear people liked it. It’s kind of catchy in it’s roughness.
