another sun drenched close hot day hiding out in a corner of the old cafe thinking up old words I could never say about the pain that never looked like going away everything was coming loose couldn't quite get my neck out of the noose tried to break my fall but what's the use? oh baby! don't make me cry how long must I be on the run? the party's just begun but whose idea of fun was this? who am I now? this isn't how I saw this evening panning out can I see you again? you tell me when how about a bout of mortal doubt at 7AM? it's the best time to freak out it's easy when you don't know what's coming round the bend oh baby! it passed us by look me in the eye as you fire the gun you're the only one but whose idea of fun was this? that's some idea of fun fun for everyone that's some idea of fun fun for everyone that's some idea of fun fun for everyone that's some idea of fun fun for everyone

New Streets 03:11
walking around these streets I found with nothing to show and nowhere to go no sound but the air forgetting all care where were the words that I meant to say? (they've gone away) now I'm alone for the first time (oh what a day) hanging onto life like the blade of a knife you know, you never made it into a song you know, I thought it might have seemed wrong there's a truth too terrible to say it's that truth that just won't go away maybe I'll write you in some other day but it looks as though you've made it in anyway anyway walking around these streets I've found nothing to show nowhere to go no sound but air forgetting all care

about

Two songs, written within the last couple of years, recorded in my garden shed in Swansea in September 2022, a couple of weeks before moving to London. 'Some Idea of Fun' was the last song I wrote in Cardiff, and 'New Streets' was the first. They deal quite honestly with all the issues at hand. Saxophones, clarinets, pianos, strings, guitars, a clavichord, etc etc.

More shed music to come, at some point. Diolch! x
