Strat1958
Late-blooming songwriter!
OK it's full of cliches, the rhymes are easy, and the drums are just a drum track.
But I really enjoyed writing and recording this song, mainly because it broke an 11-month dry spell.
I got the idea after seeing a Caribbean hotel commercial.
Drums, bass and synth are JamStudio, guitars and vocals are me, sax is Mixcraft. Recorded on a Zoom HD8.
PERFECT DAY

V1
yeah i'm leaned way back in the corner
trailing my hand in the water
trying to think of a time that was half this good
sun is setting behind us
look around, here's where you'll find us
time to do as we please, just because we could
(it's really just a state of mind)
CH
Simply want to say
It's a perfect day
make the most of our time, just to feel alive
Gettin' out to play
On this perfect day
gonna kick off the dust of the 9 to 5
V2
bob marley’s on the radio
cocktail in hand, well there ya go
feets are up, life is good, i must say this was quite well played
wonder what song'll be next to play
doesn't really matter this perfect day
......is it time to go back to the shade?
(it's time to turn down the noise)
Simply want to say
It's a perfect day
make the most of our time, just to feel alive
It's OK to play
On this perfect day
gonna kick off the dust of the 9 to 5
BRIDGE
gonna throw our troubles to the sky
don't even have to wonder why
Simply want to say
It's a perfect day
make the most of our time, just to feel alive
Mmmm, out to play
On this perfect day
gonna kick off the dust of the 9 to 5
