Trapped Rat

When I was young I remember watching Bob Geldof of The Boomtown Rats on Top Of The Pops rip up a picture of John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John from Grease. Summer nights had been at number 1 for seven weeks. The Rats had knocked it off to take the number one spot with Rat Trap. 
I was around 11 and thought this guy is so cool and the music and storytelling lyrics captivated me. 
This is the reason I wanted to be a frontman which lead on my journey of music from playing live at Birmingham’s Nec, releasing singles, albums on various labels and finally my last ever band gig selling out Ronnie Scott’s. 
These days I’m more of a bedroom rockstar recording remotely which suits me fine. It’s a young man’s game.
Trapped Rat is a continued story of Rat Trap and how in my head I thought Billy & Judy ended up 45 years later.
Yes I know it’s a long track but stick with the story as it’s a short story in song.
Noobly said it’s our Jungleland like Springsteen and I agree with him.
Hope you enjoy the journey because Rat Trap still remains one of my favourite all time tunes. 
And Geldof in his early work was a lyrical inspiration to me. 

V1
Billy rocks from side to side sitting in the darkness 
Hes listening to music that now makes him feel worthless 
The songs they remind him of those younger days 
When he thought he had no future 
And needed to change his ways 

Bridge pre chorus 
And Gorgeous  Judy was the only precious thing 
And he don’t see her no more 
Cause he’s a troubled thing 
Who  are the Rats who are the people 
it’s hard to decide for Billy theses days

V2
Billy don’t leave the house only to go down the offey 
8 on the dot to buy cheap booze and backey 
He still pushes the button to cross that busy road 
He’s now in his early sixties and god he feels the cold 

(Bridge pre chorus )
As the youths are hanging around the yellow streets lights 
In years gone by he would have picked a fight 
Who  are the Rats who are the people 
it’s hard to decide for Billy theses days

Chorus 
Your still  a trapped rat Billy 
Cause you never left the cage 
Your still a trapped rat Billy 
Cause you never left the cage 
Even in your old age x2



V3
Judy made a life with some hot shot lawyer
And her life with Billy is just something that annoys her
And when she arrives she pictures the Italian cafe 
It’s new bricks and mortar shes now visiting her and Billy’s daughter 

V4
Judy now in the bracket of middle classes 
And now drinks her coffee in double walled borosilicate glasses
And now 50p is  the least of her worries & cares 
She lives the highlife with panache grace &  flair

(Bridge pre chorus)
She don’t speak of Billy and nights spent together 
She as her own family from the land of never never 
She knows the rats 
She know the people 
It’s not hard for Judy  to decide these days
These days

Trapped Rat ~ Conscience Of Kings

DEMO - initial sketch for future home studio version

LYRIC
Pull yourself together 
Tighten all the screws
Take a shot of courage
And one more for the road 
Make sure you have tied your shoes 

Run your fingers over 
The hair you didn’t comb
Meet their expectations 
Tell them ‘thanks so much’
Grab your keys and hurry home

Oh oh who let outside in
You shut the door behind you
But the voices start again 
And you wonder do the neighbors see
That’s no way to be
Don’t let outside in

Another obligation 
Scheduled as routine
The last one that you skipped 
You had to make up two 
You said your memory slipped
That excuse wouldn’t do
Why is everyone so mean?

Oh oh You don’t want outside in
The world is a casino 
You know you’ll never win
Take your stake
And head back to your car

Let the wheels spin 
And when home again 
If you feel any doubt 
Turn the world inside out

Kitty wants some lap time
The pup would like a snack
You can’t please everybody
But the pets you make time for
They never ask for money
They greet you at the door
And best of they don’t talk back

Oh oh you don’t want outside in
It’s you and your fur buddies
And that’s the way it’s been
Since the world got out of control
And that’s not how you roll
Oh oh don’t let outside in

Do I have to say again - don’t let outside in

Phosphorescence

first mix April 19 - Jack Holston

A song for all us unknown, unsigned creators and lovers of songs

LYRIC
Hey, I’m able
Standing around but stable
Not grasping at straws
I don’t wait for applause
If it comes that would be sweet

In the meantime
Fumbling round for a new rhyme
Hope it comes soon
I’ve got a new tune
And it’s almost complete 

Come on and sing along
Won’t you join me in my song
Don’t be scared you’ll get words wrong
Sing along, sing along

Poor Franz Schubert
Imagine how much it hurt
Pouring his heart
Into his art
And only a few friends heard

Come on and sing along
Won’t you join me in my song
Don’t be scared you’ll get words wrong
Sing along, sing along

If you’ve heard me
And concluded
That old fool’s deluded
Can I ask you something else?
Could you keep that to yourself?

Don Quixote
An arm waving giant in his way
Spurred on his steed
He saw a need
For a hero to save the day
So I say…

Come on and sing along
Won’t you join me in my song
Don’t be scared you’ll get words wrong
Sing along, sing along

Sing out proud, sing out strong
Everyone can belong
Come on and sing along

lyrics: you should be dancing
+Makebana

Ooh-ee, Makeba
Makeba, ma che bella
Can I get a "ooh-ee"? Makeba
Makes my body dance for you
Ooh-ee, Makeba
Makeba, ma che bella
Can I get a "ooh-ee"? Makeba
Makes my body dance for you


I wanna hear your breath just next to my soul
I wanna feel oppressed without any rest
I wanna see you sing, I wanna see you fight
'Cause you are the real beauty of human right
Ooh-ee, Makeba
Makeba, ma che bella
Can I get a "ooh-ee"? Makeba
Makes my body dance for you
Ooh-ee, Makeba
Makeba, ma che bella
Can I get a "ooh-ee"? Makeba
Makes my body dance for you

My baby moves at midnight
Goes right on 'til the dawn
My woman takes me higher
My woman keeps me warm
What you doin' on your bed on your back? Ah
What you doin' on your bed on your back? Ah
You should be dancing, yeah
Dancing, yeah
She's juicy and she's trouble
She gets it to me good
My woman gives me power
Goes right down to my blood

My baby moves at midnight
Goes right on 'til the dawn, yeah
My woman takes me higher
My woman keeps me warm
What you doin' on your bed on your back? Ah
What you doin' on your bed on your back? Ah
You should be dancing, yeah
Dancing, yeah

Forced Perspective

I'm a keyboardist with a love for layering sounds to create ambient, ethereal atmospheres and composing simple piano pieces to embellish. I love all genres of music, and find myself composing different types depending on my mood of the day.

I’ve never had formal training. As a teen, my parents wouldn’t let a piano in our house in Egypt, so I studied piece-meal at friends’ homes. When I got to college, I learned by going to university piano practice rooms. In my 40’s, I met my birth-mom who turned out to be a child prodigy, winning a Van Cliburn competition by playing Rachmaninoff at age 11. Most of what I play today, I learned from the techniques she taught me. 

I’m an American who has lived abroad for a good part of my life in Egypt, Turkey, Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Italy, Taiwan, and now back to Texas.
