PLAY A PART (G. Di Nunno)

All evidence to prove existence of happy days
They line the walls and rest on shelves, undisturbed like dust
No telling when the dark clouds came
When passing days would feel the same
Wondering when this stranger moved in, shaded eyes adjust.

And love still sticks around, degrees of a lesser form
A couple times per year, no highlights, no shooting stars
A critic from an armchair bites
This doormat sinks to lesser heights
Dinner served, the clothes are clean, with feelings stored in jars.

Pieces scattered and discarded
No way leads to where once started
The bottom of the box holds no surprise.
Hurled through space, quite lost once landed
Through the years and now can't stand it
The stagnant strains of boredom doth arise.

The answers to the question
Of what upsets the cart
Aren't easy as their hidden
As both still play a part.

Converse in shortened phrases, little to talk about
The TV does it all, always a nearby phone
The glimpse of lives lived on the screen
A sinking here, the cause unseen
Tomorrow's routine like the rest in this place called home.

Found the will to kick the habit
Skip the class and always have it
But isn't it nice to dream about?
One by one in order to list them
Make a note to shock the system
If never tried there won't be an easy way out.

The answers to the questions
Of what upset the cart
Aren't easy as their hidden
As both still play a part...

#5. Play A Part

Original Lyrics that inspired Glen by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music and Mix by Glen Granthem

HE GREW UP IN THE SOUTH IN THE 1920'S
WHEN WORK WAS HARD TO FIND
A YOUNG MAN IN HIS THIRTY'S
NO STRANGER TO THE DAILY GRIND

BACK IN THOSE DAYS OF OLD
MOST OF THE WELLS WERE DUG BY HAND
WATER WAS WORTH IT'S WEIGHT IN GOLD
AND VERY IMPORTANT WHEN BUYIN' LAND

TO EARN EXTRA MONEY DURING HARD TIMES
HE DECIDED TO START DIGGIN' WELLS BY HAND
KNOWIN' IT WAS HARD WORK AND LONG HOURS
IT WAS GOIN' TO BE HIS SHORT TERM PLAN

(CHORUS)
AFTER DIGGIN' SEVERAL  WELLS BY HAND
THEY STARTED LAUGHTIN' AT THE YOUNG MAN
HIS WELL DIGGIN' REPUTATION WAS A JOKE
HE COULDN'T HIT WATER IF HE FELL OUT OF THE BOAT
HE COULDN'T HIT WATER IF HE FELL OUT OF THE BOAT

HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF WELL WATER WITCHIN'
YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHERE THE WATER IS LOCATED
BEFORE YOU PICK UP A SHOVEL AND START DIGGIN'
IF YOUR GONNA BE A DEVOTED WELL DIGGER

HE NEVER TOOK THE TIME TO DO ANY RESEARCH
JUST PURCHASED HIS TOOLS AND STARTED DIGGIN'
WOUND UP BEING A WELL DIGGIN' JOKE
THAT COULDN'T HIT WATER IF HE FELL OUT OF THE BOAT

(REPEAT CHORUS)

(GUITAR SOLO)

(REPEAT CHORUS AND OUT)

Yeah, another drug song written by James Geer

I have no thoughts today
No chords come to play
Nothing here to say 
Pot and Chardonnay 

An endless sea of naught
Peace is all I’ve got
Tranquility onslaught 
Chardonnay and pot

Pot and Chardonnay

There are times when we must step back and recognise certain events are beyond our control or influence. Rather than waste energy railing against this unalterable fact,we must learn to accept what we cannot change and find new ways of adapting. Although I say this,I struggle too. I'm a slow learner.
Some slide action to be played appropriately loud!


Don't be angry with the sun that sets
Or the wind and rain that blow
Nothing's gained by fretting
What you can't control

Don't get tight with things not right
Just let it all unfold
You can make it better
Just by letting go

Life is tough and treats you rough
If you swim against the tide
You can make it better
Let it all just slide

Let It Go

Even as a small child I wanted to learn a musical instrument...

...since there was a music school in our small town where I grew up, but it was limited to the activities of the local musicians' band, the choice was rather limited... because piano, guitar or saxophone were not offered and that's why I decided me for the trumpet, which was not used for cast-technical reasons, so the FLÜGELHORN became my instrument...
In my youth I turned my back on music and was active in sports towards the end of my teenage years...


“I can do many things so intensively that perfection isn’t even necessary.”
