COLLABORATIVE LYRIC-WRITING ACROSS THE WEB

[Delso]

Brilliant. Have you ever visited Leighton Buzzard?

I couldn't begin to write a song in Swedish - jag tikker om det, is about all I know and I think I got that wrong!

 

[regebro]

Thanks, Delso! No, haven't been there. All I know about it I got from the web. 35 miles North of London, and a map revealed it to be in Bedfordshire, close to the M1. Internet Rules!

Yup, you got it wrong! But you were very close. It's "Jag tycker om det".

Great ! it's nice to get someone to LOL .I'm glad to have humored you

I'll give it another go today to see what I can come up this afternoon.

Over cast and threantening rain
my since of grief still remains
striving to reach my destination
your abcents feeds my aggravation
you are here only in my mind
making love to you I've left behind
all I know this journeys long..........

The distance is out of focus...
Beyond the line in the sand...
I discard my weathered compass...
There are no poles to draw me in...
My conscious shows me my fears...
And this journey has wearied my soul...
But the known and the unknown are the same...
They are the feet I walk with, pushing on...
In this "Overcast and Threatening Rain"...

Good idea Delso

I will tread this mountain...
I will scale this rocky wall...
My shoes are blistered feet...
So far from my center, my home...
This is my path, my vision...
And will not trade for any man's...
For this rain is my lesson...
My answer... my question... my...

Ah, Delso...another fan of "Piece of Cake"...

"Overcast and threatening rain,"
Tim the Timbuck said to Shane.
"I like the rain," said Shane McGoo.
Said Tim the Timbuck, "Timbuck too!"

Overcast and threatening rain
I thankful laid
And thankful gain
A desert sky's a place to raise
A prayer for change or moisture

Bob's your uncle Frank's your man
But where's the pattern
Where's the plan
When all the tongues are rattling out
A prayer for change or moisture

Was it the words that I did pray
When all my sky
Turned blue to grey
It makes no difference if it rains
A prayer for change or moisture

 

[Delso]

Good stuff, guys/gals.

I'm off to Italy for a few days, but please keep it coming. A definite theme is emerging.

 

[dobro]

A definite theme is emerging? Delso, you wouldn't recognize a lyric if it came up and smacked you on the head with a soup spoon.

Go have some pasta.

 

[Delso]

Yeah, oh, esteemed one, the theme is crap lyrics

Va fanculo a tutti, homerecordistas.

 

[dobro]

Ooo... touchy.
