A Call For Renewal
VERSE 1: (John)
We have sown to the wind,
We have gone our own way,
We have left You out in the cold.
You gave us Your word;
You are true and just,
The First and Last from days of old.

You can’t eat money

Lyrics by me, performed by my e-band, Amigos Imaginarios

Sometimes, just a bunch of rubbish from a soundcheck can be used to create something interesting. In this case, setting up to record tenor sax (with a tin-foil pie plate covering the bell), some microphone taps, and a bit of vocalising, most with…

You’re a fat fuck
If you have a son, probably a fat son
Everyone you know is fat, son
I know the deal
As a kid you were lean
But became a fat adult
And adults don’t fat shame a fat adult
Bad result
‘cause now the job falls on me
You’re…

This was the second song I ever wrote. Like some of the other recent uploads, this was found on an old backup drive but it cleaned up pretty well so... there you go.

[Verse 1]
George said, “I don’t know what anybody thinks”
The fact is nowadays, nobody thinks
No one forms an opinion

No judgement of your fellow kin
Just hello ma’am
Yo fam and hola blah blah

I don’t see you on the Menu

A table in the corner,
A glass of Premier Cru
A waiter takes my order
But all I want is you
I don’t see you on the menu
Or I’d order two of you
But I don’t see you on the menu

As Fickle as the Wind

You’re a footprint on a beach
An imprint in the sand
Capricious as a summer storm
As fickle as the wind
Tell me who you are
And what you want from me
I need to know how far we’ll go…

This re-recorded song comes from the 2022 RPM Challenge. I am not really pleased with this new version. I can't quite put my finger on what the problem is, but there is something here that is making me unhappy.

Yeah, I got so much soul, so much so that you just cannot hold yo

Through you I am, I do all things
All credit to you and to your gifts
And your help which is plentiful

When I get a curve ball
You want me to learn from it

With shackled feet and hands

Something new....
Grey
Old paint faded

Chill creeps in
Darkness tries to take hold
The cold is peace
