Grandad With The Jeep Beep Beep was written in January and February 2022 by Hugh Nankivell after a conversation at Paignton library and some emails with Florence and Mum.

This recording features, accordion and (most important) guitar!

Lyrics

Verse 1
He used to play guitar
And he had really long hair
He used to play with me in the inflatable pool
He used to like gorillas
And monkeys too
And once he took me to the zoo

Chorus
I do miss him 
Now he’s not here
I didn’t get to say goodbye
He passed away this time last year

Verse 2
I used to watch tv with him
And our favourite was Monkey Life
He used to watch quizzes, like Pointless and The Chase
I missed him during lockdown
Facetime wasn’t the same
And now I read his letters over and again

Bridge
Grandad with the jeep beep beep
We used to do so much together
Grandad with the jeep beep beep

Verse 3
He left us some money 
To buy ourselves something
And now we have a therapy sausage dog
I call him Lennie
But he’s really John Lennon
A chocolate dappled memory for everyone

Grandad With The Jeep Beep Beep

Smiley Rock was written by Hugh Nankivell between November 2021 and January 2022 after conversations and emails with Mary Earle.

This recording features viola and piano.

Lyrics

Verse 1
I found a place
Up on the moor
Something had called me
Called me for sure

Verse 2
Deep in its depths
Two crystal hearts
Beating together
Never to part

Chorus
I go back when the feeling comes again
Smiley rock

Verse 3
Sat on the grass
Watching the birds
Ah there’s another
No need for words

Smiley Rock

‘Moving On’ written in January 2022 after a conversation with Leanne Adams.

Please add some harmony vocals (especially in the chorus) and add some percussion, Leanne usually joins in on the guiro!


Verse 1
Moving on, is the thing I want to do
But I keep on getting in my own way
If I could only not keep picking up the phone
I only pick it up because I’m on my own

Chorus
Moving on - Moving on is what I am doing

Verse 2
But I went to Victoria Park this morning
Saw the two swans and then I started on this song
Later I’ll have a massage and work at Oldway ‘til 4
Moving on is what I need to do for sure

Bridge
I used to like the dark
But now I need to get home before it’s too late
I seem to have returned into a child
I’m trying to get out of that state
And be responsible by moving on

Verse 3
Swimming in the sea is what I want to do
Learn to dance (learn to dance) and have some fun
Look forward (look forward) with hope in my eyes
Moving on, I’m doing it - when I try

Moving On

MICHELE DOTRICE (Fisher/Nankivell)

I wanna watch the telly
I wanna watch the telly
I’m nine years old
And I wanna watch the telly

But first I have to read this letter
From my future self

Dear Mark, it says
I know you’re well
So let us dwell
On things unknown

Still to come, still to come
Mr Woodward teaches you woodwork

Still to come, still to come
Mr Woodward makes a joke

Still to come, still to come
Mr Woodward promises 
Mr Woodward promises 
Mr Woodward promises 
Craig Duncan a job in a match factory

Still to come, still to come
You think Mr Woodward’s job is real

Why are you telling me this?

I wanna watch the telly
I wanna watch the telly
I’m nine years old
And I wanna watch the telly

But first I have to read this letter
From my future self

Dear Mark, it says
I know you’re well
So let us dwell
On things unknown

Still to come, still to come
Or is it round about now?

Still to come, still to come
Edward Woodward stars in The Wicker Man

Still to come, still to come
Edward Woodward leaves
Edward Woodward leaves
Edward Woodward leaves
Your father’s girlfriend’s boss’s wife’s sister

Still to come, still to come
Edward Woodward marries Michele Dotrice

I wanna watch the telly
I wanna watch the telly
I’m nine years old
And I wanna watch the telly

But first I have to read this letter
From my future self

Dear Mark, it says
I know you’re well
So let us dwell
On things unknown

Still to come, still to come
A thing called the internet

Still to come, still to come
A thing called Twitter

Still to come, still to come
You manage to please
You manage to please
You manage to please 
Betty from Some Mothers Do ‘Ave ‘Em

Still to come, still to come
A happy day for Michele Dotrice

I wanna watch the telly
I wanna watch the telly
I’m nine years old
And I wanna watch the telly

Why are you telling me this?
Why are you telling me this?
Why are you telling me this?

Wordtakers

This is the sorry of Magnus and Agnes who make illegal drugs in the Netherlands out of the magnets extracted from pacemakers which they steal from people in Holland. These drugs result in the reduction of verbal capacity for our Dutch neighbours. This song is their apology.

Everything’s in the Netherlands
Yeah magnets, 
Yeah pacemakers
Everything’s in the Netherlands
Yeah Agnes
Yeah drugmakers
Everything’s in the Netherlands
Yeah Magnus
Yeah wordtakers

A LETTER  to Charlotte (Sascha) Bas, Shon, Karoline and Aaron

We were there on the 23rd of July
We heard everything that was read

Dress me up like a curtain
In Aaron Aaron red
We saw Karoline’s extended arms
And blonde wig on her head
The truth and nothing but the truth
Like Bastien Vandendrriessche said
Including all the letters
That Charlotte (Sascha) shared
Not forgetting all the phone calls
That Shon Dale-Jones received

With very best wishes from Corkivell
