A Ballad of Scottish Banter

 [Vers 1]
Yeah… me and my travelin’ band
We play loud so the name will stand
I just wanna strum my guitar and sing my way
If you got a minute — come hear me play
Close your eyes, feel the beat
Dance and shake your body on repeat

🔁 [Refräng]
I wanna be heard all over the world
I stop in the USA, rockin’ with the girls
Then blues in Bombay, swingin’ all day
India heat — and I’m groovin’ away
Europe’s next — boppin’ land by land
If you feel the beat, then you’ll understand
A concert on the moon, late afternoon
Rockin’ out loud to a galactic tune!

🎸 [Vers 2]
Yeah… I recorded down in Promised Land
At the famous Sun Studio, Memphis, Tenn.
What a place to be — where legends stand
Elvis, Carl, and Cash — the greatest men
Made some friends, crashed on the floor
Next day hungover, but ready for more

🔁 [Refräng]
I wanna be heard all over the world
I stop in the USA, rockin’ with the girls
Then blues in Bombay, swingin’ all day
India heat — and I’m groovin’ away
Europe’s next — boppin’ land by land
If you feel the beat, then you’ll understand
A concert on the moon, late afternoon
Rockin’ out loud to a galactic tune!

🧭 [Vers 3]
Yeah… I’m back up north again
The journey ends, but I’m still the same man
Playin’ rock’n’roll with soul and flame
No rules, no fear, no shame
I live my life just day by day
My soul is music — I was born to play

❤️ [Bridge]
Some say I’m wild, some say I’m wrong
But I’ve been chasing this dream all along
Miles and mistakes — I’ve paid my toll
But I found myself in rock’n’roll

🔁 [Refräng – sista gång]
I wanna be heard all over the world
I stop in the USA, rockin’ with the girls
Then blues in Bombay, swingin’ all day
India heat — and I’m groovin’ away
Europe’s next — boppin’ land by land
If you feel the beat, then you’ll understand
A concert on the moon, late afternoon
Rockin’ out loud to a galactic tune!

Heard all over the world

This is the clean version of this song. I hope you like it!

Lyrics © Señor Barends

Enlightened one, hear my cries
I’m down on my knees, too numb to rise
Please grant my life a new start
As I stand here with a weary heart

Let your mercy cut like a winter blade  
Your light shine in this gloomy shade
There’s nobody else left who cares
As I stand here shedding my tears

Break my chains and bleed me clean  
Show me truths I’ve never seen  
Lift this weight that crushes bone  
Call my name, don’t leave me alone  

Let me rise again  
Searing scars beneath my skin  
Help me break the endless wheel  
Cut me loose, let me heal!  

The air is thick with the weight of my sins  
So many, I don’t know where to begin
Wash me clean in the midnight rain  
Let your light erase my shame  

The clothes on my body are all I own
Nobody left to love me, I’m all alone
No place to sleep, no house to burn
What is the lesson I have to learn?

Did greed and pride lead me here?  
Were my hands the blade I fear?  
I crave release, peace of mind  
To leave this cursed cycle behind  

Let me rise again  
Searing scars beneath my skin  
Help me break the endless wheel  
Cut me loose, let me heal
Let me heal

Bless me now with your mercy’s hand  
Lift me up from this broken land  
My tears run dry, my voice is thin  
A broken man begs for life again

Let Me Rise Again

I hope you like this new surf rock song! 

Lyrics © Señor Barends

The day fell into the night
When my world lost its light
Tryin’ to stand after the blow
Didn’t know which way to go

You packed your bags, didn’t look behind
Left a note said you’d had your time
I sat there staring at the floor
Shedding tears like I ain’t cried before

When you packed your bags and shut that door
It tore my heart, I can’t take it no more 
I was screaming your name down the hall
But you didn’t hear, you didn’t hear me at all

Now the house feels empty, walls closing in
Gotta do something about the pain within
I pour another glass, let the liquor burn
But these memories, they just return

When you packed your bags and shut that door
It tore my heart, I can’t take it no more 
I was screaming your name down the hall
But you didn’t hear, you didn’t hear me at all

The day embraced the fading sun
My vibrant world, its colors now gone
No new path appeared before my feet
My memories turned bittersweet

When you packed your bags, and shut that door
It tore my heart, I can’t take it no more 
I was screaming your name down the hall
But you didn’t hear, you didn’t hear me at all

Now the night is my only friend
Guess this is how the story ends

You Packed Your Bags

My psychedelic persona strikes again with this new song. I hope you like it!

Lyrics © Señor Barends

There's madness in the air, a chilling breeze
Drones hum above, through trembling trees
War’s cruel hand, it isn’t fair
And countless lives will vanish there

When violence speaks without a sound
It’s meant to keep you on the ground
A show of power, cold and clear
Step out of line, and you’ll know fear

So tell me now, what will you do?  
When every path leads back to you?  
No refuge found, no place to hide  
Just shelters deep where fears collide  

No more silence! (No more lies!)  
Raise your fist! (Let 'em try!)  
Draw the line! (Hold that ground!)  
Last stand now! (Make it loud!)  
Mad men fall! (One by one!)  
We don't run! (We don't run!)  

With rockets screaming, bombs ablaze  
Through smoke and fire, in these dark days  
Your life, a pawn, a borrowed breath  
Dismissed by those who deal in death  

So tell me now, what will you do?  
When every path leads back to you?  
No refuge found, no place to hide  
Just shelters deep where fears collide  

No more silence! (No more lies!)  
Raise your fist! (Let 'em try!)  
Draw the line! (Hold that ground!)  
Last stand now! (Make it loud!)  
Mad men fall! (One by one!)  
We don't run! (We don't run!)  

The scum of earth, with hearts of stone  
Upon their blood-soaked, evil throne  
To tyrants vile, you must not bend  
For in their grasp, your life will end  

Resist their might, with all your force  
Reclaim your freedom, change the course  
No more will fear dictate your way  
Fight for the dawn, and a brighter day  

(This…..is your last….stand)

Last Stand

A new song, dark blues rock this time. I hope you like it!

Lyrics © Señor Barends

Oh oh  
You’re in deep  
Knee deep  
Deep in sleep  
Eyes stitched shut with greed  
You don’t even hear the scream

There's frost in the blessing, the fire's gone cold  
The silence you cherish was bought and sold  
Hands that once built now just claw for more  
Eyes glazed over, blind to the war  
You praise the lie, but curse the whore

There’s so much distress  
The world’s a rotted mess  
They treat truth like trash  
Feast on the clash  
They’ll betray you for cash  
(And call it finesse)

You’re in deep  
Knee deep  
Wading through sin in your Sunday best  
Open your eyes  
But you just confess

You sleep with your pockets turned out  
Pray to gods who cash you out  
What you reap, you sow  
But you never plowed  
No sweat on your hands  
Just blood from your mouth

You’re in deep  
Knee deep  
Deep in the bones of the deal you made  
Open your eyes
Now your future’s delayed

They’ll betray you for cash
(And laugh while they do)
Ain’t no saving grace
Coming back for you

You're in Deep

A soul ballad. First version! I hope you like it.

The Way You Are

A new song I worked on. I hope you like it!

Lyrics © Señor Barends

I watched you leave a hundred ways  
Without the door, without the blame  
No raised voice, no smashed frame  
Just less of you each passing day  
Till silence started sounding safe  

Nobody left the light on  
Nobody said goodbye  
You were just gone
Your words were lies  
When you said you loved me 
You didn’t leave
You disappeared

I found your phone face-down again  
Another name you labeled “friend”  
I knew the play before the line  
But said it straight, like it was fine  
I was never yours, I was just nearby  

Nobody left the light on  
Nobody heard the cry  
It taught me how to die  
While I still breathe
You didn’t leave
You dissolved in time  

I kept the cups you never liked  
The chipped one I used every night  
It still sits dry, by the sink light  
I don’t know why

Nobody left the light on  
Nobody tried to try  
You didn’t have to lie  
You just stayed quiet  
And let me rot inside

Nobody Left the Light On

My Time Travel Songs Do Not Make Sense

I Got Stuck in a Century with No Snacks

A new song for all the air guitar players out there!

Rock 'n Roll in My Head

Verse 1
I saw her standing by the harbor light,
Her eyes like fire in the cold of night.
One glance from her cut straight through my soul,
Like a fairy’s spell I couldn’t control.

Chorus
Please, please, don’t leave me alone
Please, please, don’t cast a spell on me so soon
Please, please, don’t turn me into a statue of stone
Please, please, don’t be cruel…
The only thing I’ve done is loving you.

Verse 2
I tried to run, but my feet held fast,
Her magic bound me, a love to last.
A story from a dream, yet real as the rain,
Now I’m made of stone but I still feel the flame.

Chorus
Please, please, don’t leave me alone
Please, please, don’t cast a spell on me so soon
Please, please, don’t turn me into a statue of stone
Please, please, don’t be cruel…
The only thing I’ve done is loving you.

Verse 3
My heart keeps beating, though I cannot move,
Her whisper lingers, soft and smooth.
She stole my will with a touch so true,
And all I ever did was love her through.

Bridge
In the still of the night, under silver moon glow,
I’m caught in her charm and I can’t let go.
If loving her’s a crime, I’ll pay my due,
But don’t turn my heart to granite blue.

Chorus (final)
Please, please, don’t leave me alone
Please, please, don’t cast a spell on me so soon
Please, please, don’t turn me into a statue of stone
Please, please, don’t be cruel…
The only thing I’ve done is loving you.
