Thanks @saul-behan-dunne for being such a good team mate and allowing me to do this.

This is going all the right way. Forward.

This is the opening track off That Old Time Americana Vol 2. It's a cover of a tune by the band Ween that hails out of New Hope, Pennsylvania. They recorded it much slower, but I was searching for a more western sound. I recommend listening to their version which lists on their album entitled The Mollusk.

Cold blows the wind over my true love
Cold blows the drops of rain
I never had but one true love
And in Camville he was slain
I'll do as much for my true love as any young girl may
I'll sit and weep down by his grave for twelve month and one day
But when twelve months were come and gone
This young man he arose
What makes you weep down by my grave
I can't take my repose
One kiss, one kiss of your lily white lips, one kiss is all I crave
One kiss, one kiss of your lily white lips and return back to your grave
My lips they are as cold as my clay
My breath is heavy and strong
If thou was to kiss my lily white lips
Thy days would not be long
Oh don't you remember the garden grove where we used to walk
Pluck the finest flower of them all, twill wither to a stalk
Go fetch me a nun from the dungeon deep
And water from a stone
And white milk from a maiden's breast,
That babe ere never known
Go dig me a grave both long, wide and deep as quickly as you may
I'll lie down in it and take one sleep for twelve month and one day
Cold blows the wind over my true love
Cold blows the drops of rain
I never had but one true love
And in Camville he was slain
I'll do as much for my true love as any young girl may
I'll sit and weep down by his grave for twelve month and one day

Corporate Training Day - June 2020

Everybody's spruikin' up the branding
Vision words tumbling down like hail.
Everybody's spruikin' up the branding,
Searching for the Holy Grail
The Holy Grail

That makes me want to slam dunk a poem that doesn't even rhyme!

Hell I'm trapped in here,
Rappin' like a fool.

Positivity, Inclusivity, no Negativity here.
Brilliance, Resilience aiming for Consilience 
No Negativity here.
Ah the Mission Statement makes it very clear.
They don't allow no Negativity here.

"We've got a 5 Year Plan around here.
Always looking forward."

Better just hang out a little longer.

You know there is no space,
Never no place for fear.

Well there is no space, never no place for fear.

Quality, Policy, all become Priority,
Teamwork, Collaboration rules,
It rules the day.
Learning and Development, the need for Flexibility
Personal Improvement is the latest Cool.
Is the latest Cool.

Yo Yo...you, know...like the New Black.

Well everybody's talking up the logos 
Vision words are tumbling down like hail.
Everybody's spruikin' out the branding
Searching for the Holy Grail
That Holy Grail,
The Holy Grail.
Where's the Holy Grail?

Yo...better just hang out a little longer,
retreat back to the comfort of an uncertain World.

Follow the money folks.
Follow the money!
