AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD

We started out on a journey together
We were young and unafraid
Picked up hitch hikers and their load
That we found on the side of the road

We encountered all kinds a weird weather
Gave each other shelter, shield or shade
Whenever any doubts or worries showed
We left ‘em at the side of the road
 
At the side of the road
At the side of the road 
Whenever any doubts or worries showed
We left ‘em at the side of the road
 
Travelled far over rivers and mountains
Burned rubber through hill and glen
We bathed as the ink blue fountains flowed
Slept rough on the side of the road

At the side of the road 
At the side of the road 
We bathed as the ink blue fountains flowed
Slept rough on the side of the road
 
Every night we’d light up a fire
At dawn we’d pack and move on
I recall how the moon and the stars glowed
As we watched from the side of the road

At the side of the road
At the side of the road 
I recall how the moon and the stars glowed
As we watched from the side of the road 

One day you say I’ll carry on alone
Your heart was starting to roam
I felt my life blood running cold
As you dropped me at the side of the road
 
At the side of the road 
At the side of the road 
I felt my life blood running cold
As you dropped me at the side of the road

LIFE HACKS (Think Proverbs)
2022 Nahlej/Cooper

Uh oh - what’s that thing I always told you?
Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth 
Wait huh? Another lesson that you learned too 
What goes up must come down 

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing
a miss is as good as a mile
All good things come to those that wait 
And a good man is hard to find 

The best defence is a good offence 
And charity begins in the home  
Do as I say, but not as I do
Coz the devil looks after his own   

Think proverbs think, think proverbs
They were always the best life hacks 
Think proverbs think, think proverbs 
You’ll be amazed how they keep you on track 

Don’t rock the boat, upset the apple cart 
Or throw good money after bad
Enough is enough, every dog has his day
But don’t let the cat out of the bag  

Fight fire with fire or fight the good fight 
An Eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth 
Every little helps but a man has his price 
Give credit where credit is due 

Think proverbs think, think proverbs
They were always the best life hacks 
Think proverbs think, think proverbs 
You’ll be amazed how they keep you on track 

Out of sight out of mind and opposites attract 
Once a thief always a thief 
Practise what you preach coz revenge is sweet 
It’s the squeaky wheel gets the grease 

Seeing is believing
Seek and you shall find 
Slow but sure still waters run deep 
Whatever you sow you shall reap

Life Hacks (Think Proverbs)

IF YOU DON’T GET DOWN (YOU'LL NEVER GET UP)
2022 Cooper/Jones
 
If you don’t get down, you’ll never get up
And once you start, you’ll never let up
 
You can have that Friday feeling
Any day of the week
Make your circadian rhythm
Special and unique
 
If you don’t get down, you’ll never get up
And once you start, you’ll never let up
 
You can put down all the shutters
Or pull out all the stops
You can sweep me off the floor tonight
If the penny fin'lly drops
 
If you don’t get down, you’ll never get up
And once you start, you’ll never let up
 
Imagine the scenario
We’re dancing on ground zero
The bassline pumps out energy
And soon we’re dancing frantic’ly
The beat slows down, the aura calms
The lights dim on the glitter dome
 
If you don’t get down, you’ll never get up
And once you start, you’ll never let up

If you don’t get down, you’ll never get up
And once you start, you’ll never let up

If You Don't Get Down

CAN’T HOLD A CANDLE
2022 Georgie Cooper 

At night, when it’s quiet and the house is asleep 
And it’s me, left alone feelin’ blue 
I know I can’t complain, coz my life is sweet
But it can’t hold a candle to you 

On the bright city roads, as I’m drivin’ my car 
Shopping bags’, full to brim in the boot
I count my lucky stars, I’ve come so far 
But it can’t hold a candle to you 

Movin’ on, going on about my day 
Happy faces, smiles, feeling good
Things on the horizon and comin’ my way 
But it can’t hold a candle to you 

Bridge 
No I’ve never felt more alive then I did back then 
I only had to meet your eyes and I was home again 
Babe you know I had to stay - too tied down to play
But I’m never forgettin’ those days 

Doin’ the dishes, feedin’ the dog
Laughin’ and singin’ this tune
For all of this I’m grateful to God
But it can’t hold a candle to you 

It can’t hold a candle to you 
No it can’t hold a candle to you

Can't Hold A Candle

A MODICUM OF BOREDOM (Cooper/Jones)
© All Rights Reserved 2023

Time flies by
Every day 
Without a modicum of boredom 
If I could have 
Some minutes free 
I’d run in haste towards them

How I miss
Those idle days 
Of fickle flimsy nothings 
For half an hour
Or maybe two 
That would really be something 

Oh, stop the stop the stop the clock 
Pop the pop the pop the cork 
Raise the raise the raise the glass 
And let’s all go and get smashed! 

I’d trade a leg 
An arm or both 
For downtime as it’s so called 
You may run 
Or hurry up
But I’d like to be stalled 

I long for snow 
Or hurricanes 
To pause the rat race please 
I’ll call in sick 
Or fake my death 
Just to get some blimmin’ peace 

Oh, stop the stop the stop the clock 
Pop the pop the pop the cork 
Raise the raise the raise the glass 
And let’s all go and get smashed! 

I’m in a groove 
A weary rut 
A drink or two I’ve poured some 
Oh what 
I wouldn’t give 
For just a modicum of boredom

Oh, stop the stop the stop the clock 
Pop the pop the pop the cork 
Raise the raise the raise the glass 
And let’s all go and get smashed!

From A Flicker To A Flame
2023 Cooper Jones 
               
What is it with me                        
Why do I always fall
I’m a gambler it seems                                       
Push my chips to risk it all  
                            
Again my heart has wings                            
And it’s fluttering around                      
Lost in dang’rous dreams                                        
Fetch the net to bring it down

CHORUS
Oh here I go again 
From a flicker to a flame
Can’t seem to help myself
I know I am to blame

Something’s stirring up inside 
I’m not gonna let it die
It’s growing, getting bigger
From a flicker to a flame 
                
VERSE
My old heart leaps                          
It’s happy once again                      
With you around all day                          
My limits know no end 
                             
I see beauty in your soul                                 
It’s a gift I’ve always owned              
To find the best in someone is
Jane from Pride & Prejudice 

CHORUS
So here I go again 
From a flicker to a flame
Can’t seem to help myself
I know I am to blame

Something’s stirring up inside 
I’m not gonna let it die
It’s growing, getting bigger
From a flicker to a flame 

BRIDGE
My heart has been asleep
Dormant without a need 
All for crushes that crushed me
I locked and threw away the key 

CHORUS
So here I go again 
From a flicker to a flame
Can’t seem to help myself
I know I am to blame

Something’s stirring up inside 
I’m not gonna let it die
It’s growing, getting bigger
From a flicker to a flame 
It’s growin’ gettin’ bigger from a flicker to a flame

Her Quarry Never Gets Caught
2023 Georgie Cooper

VERSE
She wants to be in his arms at night
And in his thoughts by day
She has loved him in secret for a long while
But he doesn’t see her that way

VERSE 
He is wed to another though she treats him wrong
She thinks she’s the better for him
So the days come and go and the years tumble on
Her love light never grows dim


CHORUS
He is always on her mind
She longs to be his wife
It’s a long shot and she gives all she’s got
But her quarry never gets caught 


VERSE
She admires how he works from dusk to day’s end
When he’s tired he never complains 
She’s the one he comes to when he needs a friend 
Not the beauty but she has the brains

CHORUS
He is always on her mind
She longs to be his wife
It’s a long shot and she gives all she’s got
But her quarry never gets caught 

It’s a long shot and she gives all she’s got
But her quarry never gets caught

FLIRTATIONSHIP
2023 Cooper/Jones 

F eels like we’ve been chatting for quite a while
L ong enough to gather you can make me smile
I  don’t quite know where this may be going
R ight now, it’s exciting, the just not knowing

CHORUS: Ooh ooh ooh... flirtationship x2 (wanna)

T rying to work out what is on your mind
A re you trying to work out if I’m your kind
T he night’s still young and there’s so much more
I ’d like to know about the guy I might fall for

CHORUS: Ooh ooh ooh... flirtationship x2 (wanna)

O n first impressions, you’re doing well
N ow are you genuine, I can’t quite tell
S o before we go any further down this road
H ave you sent me  signals I need to uncode

CHORUS: Ooh ooh ooh... flirtationship x2 (wanna)

I  think it’s about time we both got a grip
P lease, say if this is real or a flirtationship
