Yesterday evening I turned off the TV and arsed about online instead, drinking cider. On Twitter, the lovely Matt Lucas had posted a sort of song sketch he was working on, so I wrote these lyrics to it and nobody cared. Still, I think it's kinda nice.
Here's the song - click to play
And here's my half-drunk words:
Talking to neighbours... Over the fence.
Me on my deckchair. They're on their bench.
The sun smiles above us, the blue sky immense.
Keeping our distance. Comparing sheds
What is two metres between good friends?
See the magpies flying free
Kissing clouds so tenderly
Now I have the time to see
Birds dance on the wandering breeze
Wings of passion, wings of joy,
Sharing secrets, sharing dreams
Fragile zephyrs whisper hope
Earth-bound fetters hold us down
Maybe tomorrow I'll see your face
Maybe tomorrow we will embrace
Maybe tomorrow we'll pick up the threads
Piquant the memories in this sunset
Keeping our distance
Comparing sheds
Anyway he seems like a top bloke all round so go and follow him asap.
