ALEXANDER THE BEAST

There's a fantastic 70s leaning pop-rock album  Ticket to Shangri-La  released in 2023 (Young Gun Silver Fox) with a song called Starting Wars. I miss heard and mis-read the title as Starling Wars which seemed a great metaphor for something. It could have applied to a relationship - but the 2 wars going on became the theme

Starling Wars

You fly in to foul my nest 
Seeing red I puff out my chest
Aiming at your catacombs
Dropping all my guano bombs
Flit across and I peck at you
Cause my beliefs are the only truth
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

I ruffle your feathers
You think that you’re better
Ethnically superior
The plumage of an emperor
Gonna peck my eye’s right out
Squawk about it loud and proud
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

Em7 Dma7 Ami7 G Bb/C F F#m7 B

Underneath there’s the dove of peace
Peeking out at the busy streets
I Wrap your eggs neath protective wings
Drop a flower confess my sins
Fleeting thought it just flies away
Revenge is sweet gonna make you pay
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

STARLING WARS

No longer exists
Of what you were
You are no longer the same woman

Now you know
What you feel
You are no longer the same woman

Words
The looks
They are no longer the same woman

The smile
The caresses
They are no longer the same woman

and in time
I'm sorry already
that you are not the same woman


(Chorus)
Who I fell in love with...
Who I fell in love with...
Who I fell in love with...
Who I fell in love with...

and in time
I'm sorry already
that you are not the same woman

(Chorus 2)
You dont want
What you have
You are no longer
Yesterday's girl

No longer exists
Of what you were
You are no longer the same woman

The same woman
the same woman

De Quien Me Enamoré

F-Self-Punishment

Gary and James 
Jumped on a train
They wanted to escape
The pouring rain

Ran from school
Ran from mum
The guilt and the anger
Afraid of what they become

The train slowly left the station

Didn’t mean to
Didn’t mean to
They looked at each other 
But no one cares no one bother

The train slowly left the station away from the peril

But deep inside something grew
A bigger plan that no one knew
Maybe tomorrow maybe this afternoon 
Doesn’t matter but soon

Gary and James
Not the brightest flames 
Wanted so bad
To do the right thing
But didn’t know what their actions would bring

The train slowly left the station

Interstellar Spectacle

This is a song about how we perceive things.  Note that the melody and the tempo in the beginning are the same as at the ending. Enjoy.

Slow paced 80s inspired retro track with heavy synths. Sit back and enjoy.

Composed with passion.
