Happy Accident

Watched a report on the news about Giraffes walking hundreds of miles
and dyeing of thirst in Somalia. Used Giraffe humming recordings at night. Very deep Humming.

Humming Giraffes

As another waking day begins
I reflect upon all my past sins
Nothing really too bad or vast
And secured safely in the past
Forget all the hocus pocus
I've set myself a positive focus

CHORUS
Come what may
Together I want us to spend each day
As if it is the last
And what a way to spend our brief and valued time

Every minute that we share entwined
Makes me value how you're the perfect find
And every second that we are apart
Causes cracking in my fragile heart
I stride with a confident swagger
I'm sorry that that makes me a bragger

CHORUS

I realise I have been an eyesore
You're the missing piece in my life's jigsaw

CHORUS
Two lights that shine

Brief And Valued Time

From the album Astral Surfing for Idiots, coming out early 2022

I’m the gambler
I’ll take your money
Put it on the table
On the table
I’m the gambler
I’ll call you honey
Take your money
When
I need some food
Its time to beg and steal and borrow
This time
I’ll not think of tomorrow
Its time to go and drown my sorrows
In the bar
How far's too far??

Бесполезный разговор -
Я ушел, а ты осталась.
Бесполезный разговор,
Для тебя и для меня
Это может быть игрою.
Для тебя. Для меня.

Бесполезные мечты -
Далека от них реальность.
Бесполезные мечты,
Как несбыточны они,
Увлекают нас с собою.
И тебя. И меня.

Бесполезные мечты
Для чего они?

Useless Conversation

It was my 50th birthday and I was meant to be having a day of fun and laughter, enjoying the company of friends and family. One guest, though, took it upon themselves to share personal tales of woe with one and all, a process which spanned the entire occasion, from uncomfortable beginning through to bitter end.  As a result, it is the recollection of that somewhat harrowing narrative that lingers, rather than  the memory of song and laughter I was kind of hoping for.  

At the time, the words of XTC's song “Snowman” came into my head, probably because I was wondering why this person was treating me with such cold, unfeeling insensitivity.  OK, hardly the true meaning of the original, but exactly how I felt about what had happened.  I haven't ever mentioned these feelings to anyone except my wife, preferring to lay them to rest by the now tried and trusted method of writing a song about it, and to also remind myself that, after all, it was just another day.

The music Arnold (you can see his other work at https://soundcloud.com/arnold-dawson-317816707 and a link to his band camp pagehttps://exit.sc/?url=https://arnolddawson.bandcamp.com/track/xtc-were-right)created here is out of this world, and interprets the meaning of the song with absolute perfection.  Everlasting thanks to him for helping me put that day to rest, so that it can at least now be remembered in the context of a brilliantly produced track.  He played, arranged and mixed the whole thing - all I had to do was add the vocal.  I had shedloads of fun doing that.  

Thanks so much to everyone for listening.  (Terry Reeves).

Another day is over
Darkness all around 
Crushed a four leaf clover
Didn’t see it on the ground

How much luck does it take
Before I make the same mistake

Another Birthday candle
Lightning up the room
Still learning how to handle 
Other people’s tales of gloom

Fifty years but I ain’t done yet
Looking forwards with some past regrets 
Some past regrets

What you see
Isn’t always what you want to see
Where you go
Isn’t always where you want to be

Another melting snowman 
XTC were right
But I’d rather be a no man
Than stay cold all my life

Climate change may end the snow
My entire fault I will never know
I will never know

Another leaf has fallen 
The tree is nearly bare
Winter nearly over
No hero’s springing up anywhere 

What you see is what you got
Close your eyes you got a lot
You got a lot

Where you go
Isn’t always where you want to be
Where you want to be

XTC Were Right (Cripple Club in collab. with Arnold Dawson)

Ah,the times were good
We had a ball
We didn't make much money
Sometimes none at all

We played our songs
Believed the part
All that we played and sang
Came from the heart

Remember when the fire burned bright
Playing those songs every night

Ah time moves fast
But we move slow
Nothing ever lasts
We weren't to know

Burned out and faded
The passion gone
Going through the motions
For every well known song

Remember when the fire burned bright
Playing those songs every night

Remember when the fire burned bright
Playing those songs every night

On top of the hilltop surrounded by men
I’m counting to seven they’re counting to ten
The people are hungry again and again
And there’s nothing inside you apart from a pen
The man he said ugly the man he’s at ten
So fold up your worries and concentrate zen
A phobia is good to forget all your friends
With enemies like these who’ll need them again
Could you ever stick all of the jibes
And could you ever kick women with knives
Could you listen to all of their lies
Adrenaline junkies it’s good to survive
Have you ever been put in a corner
And have you ever had blood on your shoulders
Have you ever been down on your knees
Well roll up your blindness and roll up your sleeves
Now is the moulding of every bad blood
It’s time that you orchestrate everything good
You have to be better time after time
It’s easy to summon your strength from a lie
Now I’m at seven and he is at sixes
He wishes that he could get out of this fixture
Don’t take your eyes off the pity of life
Go for the kill and then go get a prize
All of the commentaries of all of the men
Are not so important they can’t start again
It’s what you know now not no what you knew then
It’s easy to live if you like killing men
Fashion is fast there’s a high price to pay
But I know that I’ll come back and get you one day
If there’s a reason to carry a tray
Well I’ll put your teeth on it and end it today
Power is everything power can stay
Power can talk it’s way out of affray
Keep what you need like your heart and keys
Throw everything else that you don’t need away
At the end of the day all the cliches are stains
On the minds of the purist that’s what left remains
It’s all about nothing to you that’s a shame
But you know that I’ll come back and ..
Fight You Again
