Sweet Rock n’ Roll (Born Late ’66)
“Yeah, ‘Course I was born late ’66 so I got to grow up with..Um, you might call them the classics…..Of Rock n’Roll, Mott The Hoople, T-Rex, Marc Bolan..Right through to the early 80’s and again in the 90’s, I suppose you could say I grew up in the Golden Age Of Rock n’Roll…”
You been my Mother,
You been my Dad
You were the Brother
- I found I had
Oh, Oh,
The highs & lows
Oh, Oh
Sweet Rock n’Roll
Sometimes we argue
Sometimes we fight
Sometimes you know best
Sometimes I’m right
Oh, Oh,
The highs & lows
Oh, Oh
Sweet Rock n’Roll
You’re no lady
But I like your style
I been hangin’with you now
For some little while
Even when I’m tired
And you’re on my back
I can’t leave
I’ll always take you back
You’re the sister
I still talk to
You’re the (Second) best Friend
I ever knew
Oh, Oh,
The highs & lows
Oh, Oh
Sweet Rock n’Roll
If I want a shot
When I feel blue?
You’re the answer
- I turn to you
Oh, Oh,
The highs & lows
Oh, Oh
Sweet Rock n’Roll
You’re no lady
But I like your style
I been hangin’with you now
For some little while
Even when I’m tired
And you’re on my back
I can’t leave
I’ll always take you back
Oh, Oh,
The highs & lows
Oh, Oh
Sweet Rock n’Roll

Magic Money Tree
They told us, there is no magic money tree
They told us, nothing is for free
Then they give it a shake
Then they give it a shake
And there’s a little magic money
For you n’me (x2)
Even when the tower block
Burned to the ground
They said no money could be found
And when the Doctors & Nurses said
Things were bad
They said no money was to be had
Now Captain Trips is knockin’ us dead
No one sleeps easy in their bed
The queue will be longer than you’ve ever seen
And ’08 will seem like just a bad dream
They told us, there is no magic money tree
They told us, nothing is for free
Then they give it a shake
Then they give it a shake
And there’s a little magic money
For you n’me (x2)
Most of us ain’t born too bright
We keep on voting for’ em
Cos they do us-Right?
Isn’t he lovely with his floppy blonde hair?
And another little Bubby shows
He’s got a pair
Didn’t she look like Mrs Thatcher used to do?
As she told us there was nothing that we could do
Bullingdon Boys are off shore tax free
Look at the fruit on their magic money tree
They told us, there is no magic money tree
They told us, nothing is for free
Then they give it a shake
Then they give it a shake
And there’s a little magic money
For you n’me (x2)

Boot Boy Aggression
You see it in the supermarket
Down on the street
In the eyes of passing strangers
And even friends if you could meet
There’s a look in their eye
And a rising fear
Boot Boy Aggression is here, today
You ain’t going nowhere
People are packing paper
How much do you need?
Can’t they spare a little
For others in their need?
Their hearts must be as empty
As the toilet paper shelf
Boot Boy Aggression is here, today
It’s all self, self,self
To keep it all together
We got to keep it all apart
How come you ain’t listening man?
Put it in the trolly cart
Aggression’s back in fashion
Did it ever go away?
Boot Boy Aggression
Just two steps from the cave.
Boot Boy Aggression
Cradle to the grave
I know we are only human
Or so it would appear
Some of us more human
Than others in their fears
What you gonna do?
Now the pubs have all gone shut?
Take your Boot Boy Aggression
Out for Pizza-Bad luck
Take your Boot Boy Aggression
Save it for better days

Manners
Manners!
Are in short supply
Manners!
I don’t know why
We can’t be a bit more polite
To each other
Manners!
This dying breed
Something else we just don’t need
Old and archaic it seems
Are manners..(x2)
Manners!
May I offer you my seat?
Manners!
Take the weight off your feet
Pull out a chair for the lady
Manners!
On the dance floor
Old fashion moves
No, no more
Why must we be a boor?
Manners!
After you,
Do you mind If I do?
You first-please, no, please I insist
Manners
Hold the door
Not needed anymore
We throw the manners out the door
Manners!
Good manners no more.

Baby Let Your Hair Grow Long
Baby let your hair grow long
If it’s the end of days
What does it matter anyway?
Baby let your grey show through
Because there is nothing we can do
I can hear the birds better now
I can’t hear the motor cars
Endless row
Baby, let your hair grow long
Baby let your bush grow back
I always liked it that way
As a matter of fact
Baby let go of the past
It is where it belongs
And nothing ever lasts
I can hear the birds better now
I can’t hear the motor cars
Endless row
Baby, let your hair grow long.

Misfits
Yes Sir! We are the misfits
We like toys in their boxes and playing guitar
Not what our parents wanted
But that’s what we are
A misfit mystery to Mum n’Dad
Not quite the child they wanted to have
Misfits did not enjoy their schooldays
Considered by our peers to be probably gay
Misfits often got a bloody nose
If you are different that’s how it goes
When you’re a misfit.
And we were misfits
Misfits mystified by golf and cars
Is it a BMW? No it’s a car
To a misfit, And we are misfits
Here is our world-take a peek
And you will find a happy den of geek
No aspirations to the things you seek
Cos’ we are misfits
No hope of Premier League
We were the kid that you, considered a weed
We got a note from our Mum
So we didn’t have to come
- And do it with you
Ah woo hoo!
Ah woo hoo!
Ah woo hoo!
We do not seek your approval no more
We never loved Football, Rugby,
Or anything involving a ball
And we don’t need you….
We don’t need YOU
AT ALL.
Ah woo hoo!
Ah woo hoo!
Ah woo hoo!

Coffee & Croissants
Coffee & croissants
Up at ten
Bloody dogs are barking again
Switch on the ‘Pad
Guardian news
How do you keep from
Gettin’ the blues?
When there’s me
When there’s me
When there’s me
I’m always there
(And you’re following me…)
Eyes roll, fingers wag
Got to admit I can be a bit of a slag
Loud and uncouth
A cause for concern
If he won’t listen, how will he learn?
But that’s me
But that’s me
But that’s me
I’m always there
(And you’re following me…)
Tapas & Wine
Round about two,
“Excuse me Darling there’s
Something I must do”
“He’s being most tedious,
Leaning to the Left,
Doesn’t he know I have 2x terms?
Experience heft?”
Then there’s me
Then there’s me
Then there’s me
I’m always there
(And you’re following me)
Off to bed
But he’ll be up at Ten
To try n’make ‘em
See sense again
To try n’make ‘me
See sense again.
Until then…X

The New Age
We are taking a knee for the New Age
We are taking a knee for the New Age
There is no you and me
We are gender neutral and free
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
Now..
(It’s a Brave New World…)
We are taking a knee for the New Year
We are taking a knee for the New Year
There is no you and me
Except …On our knees
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
Now..
(It’s a Brave New World…)
We are taking a knee for the New Age
We are taking a knee for the New Age
Driving fossil free
Through the burning trees
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
Now..
(It’s a Brave New World…)
We are taking a knee for the New Age
We are taking a knee for the New Age
This age of Equality
Unless it’s you and me
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
It’s our New Age
Now..
(It’s a Brave New World…)
(Happy New Year…)

Memoirs Of a (Failed) Rock' n’Roll Star
Memoirs Of a (Failed) Rock 'n’Roll Star
Old Hams never know when to quit the stage
A Wizard, a True Star-That’s what you are!
Remnant of a Golden Age
Memoirs Of a (Failed) Rock 'n’Roll Star
On, ever on with the Show
Glamtastic, Fantastic, Fantasia
Soon be time to go
Fade away & radiate
Fade away
Fade away & radiate
-Glorious fool
Memoirs Of a (Failed) Rock 'n’Roll Star
Stardust memories from back in the day
I hope I’m not boring you, young man
If I am- just say
Memoirs Of a (Failed) Rock 'n’Roll Star
No needles, no pills, no car
Wrapped ‘round a tree, in Barnes ‘77
Nothing so romantic for me
Fade away & radiate
Fade away
Fade away & radiate
-Glorious fool
Memoirs Of a (Failed) Rock 'n’Roll Star
We are getting very near the end
Glamtastic, Fantastic,
Rock' n’Roll Show
But now it’s time to go.

Clickbait
I bet I won’t get even one share
Does my doe eyed disability
Make you even care?
I’m a dog, I’m a cat, I’m a Vietnam Vet
I’m holding a bit of cardboard
Can I please get a share?
I bet I won’t get even one share
Even though I turn one hundred
This very year
I bet I won’t get one share today
It’s not Clickbait – I swear
Can you see what my placard says?
It’s says ‘Share this’ today
I’m hoping for a thousand clicks
I bet I won’t get them
Although I am very sick
I bet I won’t get a single share
Though I sent this to one million accounts!
It would only take a minute to share
And spread the good vibes about.
I bet I don’t get a share
What’s up with you?
Don’t you care?
Don’t you like ugly dogs?
You are cruel and callous person
There’s no doubt
I bet I don’t get even one share
With my one remaining floppy ear
The trouble with people these days is,
They just don’t seem to care
I bet I won’t get even one share
