I Don't Wannabe (Your 51st State) - Pop/Rock Version

Mr. President, a moment if you please
We used to be like brothers now you're coming after me
Mm-hmm we fought together, died together too
And I can't believe this nightmare is all because of you
So let me say to USA as nicely as I can
To leave it along and let us just be friends
Talkin' 'bout my home, my true North, Strong & Free
And like the song says, baby, We Stand On Guard for Thee

I don't
I don't wanna
Don't wannabe
I don't wannabe your 51st state, no
I don't
I don't wanna
Don't wannabe
Don't wannabe your 51st state now

Friends like us gotta find a way
To make things right for the USA
Friends and family across the border
It's elbows up when we get in the corner
Where we live is happy home
Reaching for something that ain't your own
We understand you want to grow
Our advice, just leave it alone

I don't
I don't wanna
Don't wannabe
I don't wannabe your 51st state, no
I don't
I don't wanna
Don't wanna
Don't wannabe your 51st state now

François Hollande's reign as president was marked by a secret love affair, deadly terror attacks and an economic policy U-turn. There was something endearing about the man, however, captured in this infamous speech in English. Hope I don't get deported for this, enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGHMrWKUf1g

Be You - soyez vous            
Be proud of you - soyez fier de vous
Because you can be- parce que vous pouvez être
Do - faire
What we want to do - ce que nous voulons faire

Il a peut-être raison - ge is probably right
Ce vieux président - this old president
C’est un peux déroutant - it’s a bit confusing
Mais aussi très profond - but also deep

Be You !

Going Home

Haven’t been on the cloud much lately. Been travelling across the southern Australian coastline, to the beautiful and remote Kangaroo Island. Its beauty seemed strangely juxtaposed to the horrors going on elsewhere.

Well, the wind is pickin' up,
and the sea is gettin' rough.
Midday has turned to dusk,
and we're feelin' Iike we're fucked.
Yet, still, we can't get enough
'cause somehow we get some love
for spillin' out our guts
about each time we've been fucked,
and each time that we have fucked,
and each time we've lost our trust,
and each time we've showed disgust
each time we treat time with fuss.
Each time, every time, we must
treat each time like we're in lust.
Otherwise, each time will pass and we'll 
have lost each time. For what? 

Absolutely nothing, baby.
Do you trust me? Yes or maybe?
Don't be shy, babe, come persuade me.
Spill it out, now, don't be angry.
I just want you. You're my baby.
Learned to trust you. You've regained me.
Fear to love you. Yes, it pains me.
Still, I'll fuck you. You'll repay me. 

Somehow I still feel this is right.
And I can't put up no more fight.
If this consumes me, then so be it.
We'll be in movies, or some 'd' skit. 

I'm just kiddin'.
I'm just joshin'.
Why fuss hauntin'
all my dreams when
you're just kiddin',
and just joshin'.
You're just hauntin'
my dreams because you can. 

Why you gotta fuck with me? 

I'm gonna take hold of you.
Throttle your neck until you're blue.
Don't think once that this dude
won't make you swallow what you've chewed.

Lyrics:

1
On a saturday night I feel a little restless, a need for something
And after a few glasses of wine, I think:
Rest can wait until another time
Don't want to be alone 
(So I call you)
Pick up the phone

Du du-dudu-dudu..
Hello?

Chorus:
Will you come and have some fun with me?
The night is young, the wine is strong
Will you come and say hello to my crazy side?
It's pretty wild!

Dudu-dudu-dudu..
Hello?

2
On a sunday night i feel anything but tired, can't sleep
And after twisting my mind, I think:
Sleep can wait until another time
Don't want to be alone
(So I call you)
Pick up the phone

Dudu-dudu-dudu..
Hello?

Chorus:
Will you come and have some fun with me?
The night is young, the wine is strong
Will you come and say hello to my crazy side?
Its pretty wild!

Dudu-dudu-dudu..
Hello?

Ode To The Night Wind

Un peu de poésie pour mes amis musiciens et musiciennes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAZpfC6K4p8

[Verse] 
Je marche au bord d'un rêve oublié 
Le vent murmure des mots enchantés 
Les étoiles brillent mais je suis perdu 
Un chemin flou dans l'inconnu 
[Verse 2] 
Sous la lune je cherche une lumière 
Un écho doux d'un amour sincère 
Les feuilles dansent au son du passé 
Chaque pas me fait vibrer 
[Chorus] 
Mon âme danse au rythme du silence 
Chaque note porte mon espérance 
Les ombres jouent une mélodie 
Dans ce chaos je trouve ma vie 
[Bridge] 
Un saxophone pleure dans la nuit 
Un cor résonne et apaise l'ennui 
Les cordes vibrantes comme un cœur battant 
Tout s'accorde dans ce doux instant 
[Verse 3] 
Le clavier chante une histoire d'hier 
La harpe tisse des rêves éphémères 
Les tambours grondent comme des secrets 
Et mon âme s'envole en liberté 
[Chorus] 
Mon âme danse au rythme du silence 
Chaque note porte mon espérance 
Les ombres jouent une mélodie 
Dans ce chaos je trouve ma vie

Un rêve oublié

Archy has finally reached the elusive land of his dreams. But is it really all what it seems? Is there something evil in the air? Is there dark clouds at the horizon? Archibald Whim may step ashore, but what awaits him in this ever changing America?
This track was recorded in corporation with the ever so talented BribedAnt, that supported with bass and solo guitar along with a critical input in the mix and master process. Do look up BribedAnt on Soundcloud - it's a blast.
