Los Molinos De Tu Espiritu (made up words to movie theme song)

let us share quixotic daydreams
from the corners of our youth
weave the webs of childhood wishes
into blankets made of truths
whether born in cornfields golden
or from concrete grey and bare
now that we have found each other
they’re exactly where we are.

The Man From Mañana (a snippet of an imagined song for The Moody Blues or some such)

He spoke of days in monochrome
before the world found colours bold
and all the songs he knew had not been sung
and in there was a long lost dream
of what this future might have been
if we’d thought at all when we were young

Not, That Simple.

break me not
forsake me not
forget me not
tie me not…
well…
not in knots
at least.

lose me not
refuse me not
bemuse me
nor abuse me not…
well…
not unless
you tie the knots
to tease.

First Two Verses of a song possibly for Leonard Cohen

I awake from a dream
in a mystic motel
filled with poets
and prophets
all down at heel
who pass round
the Thunderbird
as free
as their philosophy

and it all tastes
like stale cigarettes
in the morning
that breaks
on the hills
of Hollywoodland
and they all headed
west just like me
to find celebrity

partial song for Sunday

singing out loud
what I’m thinking today
as the sun rolls by
sitting in a deckchair
dreaming, yeah yeah
just dreaming
no thoughts screaming
’cause
I’m setting them free
as soon as they’re born
by singing out loud
what’s in my head today

a lost verse to a song by one of those Gallagher chaps

I saw you shamble down the road
a little like a common toad
your head was up your arse
you looked so mean
you spoke about your masterplan
for getting even with “the man”
an angrier little guy
I’d never seen.

Here Is A Song About Barney For The Boomtown Rats To Sing

Barney is a bouncer
he bounces round the town
and when he isn’t bouncing up
then he’s bouncing down

Barney is a springer
he springs upon the chairs
but if you move to fast for him
he’ll spring right up the stairs

Barney is a roller
furry roller on the floor
and if you didn’t stop him
then he’d roll right out the door

Jesters Weep (notes for a song idea)

the kings of old
they suffered fools,
yet we are cursed
to suffer fools as kings

so jesters weep

Song Idea (notes)

It’s a bloody sin
the price of gin
especially in these days
when a good stiff drink
can stop you think-ing
how we got this way

Verse from an unfinished song for Ringo Starr

I knew you were mine
when our conkers entwined
and when I first pulled on your hair
you showed me your knickers
which made my heart flicker
though I didn’t know why then and there.
