Is Ralph of any relation to the 19-Century Christchurch architect of the same name? If so, we definitely need a song about his run-in with the legendary Ted Pooley:https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/rewind-to-1877-test-cricket-s-first-gambling-victim-539294

ENGLISH LYRICS
The girl and the crow
I sat the other day and read my newspaper
A day like so many others before
And I thought about all those dreams
You dream that one after another have come to an end
 
Then I saw a picture of a girl
With a wounded crow on her arms
She runs through the forest
As fast as she possibly can
 
And her curly hair flutters when she runs
She runs on her thin legs
And she prays and begs and hopes and believes
That it's not too late
 
The girl is little and her hair is so bright
And her cheek is flickering red
The crow is clumsy and croaks black
In a moment it's completely dead
 
But the girl runs for her life
With a wounded crow in her arms
She runs towards safety and warmth
For what is real and true
 
And she runs with sparkling eyes
She runs with think legs
Because she thinks it's true, what dad has said:
If there's life it's never too late
 
And I run with my heart beating
I run with thin legs
And I pray and beg, but I actually know
That it is already too late

One of my fave comedy scenes in a movie is the "this poem sucks" beat poem in 'So I Married an Axe Murderer'. Written & performed by fellow Cannuck Mike Myers, the visual performance is as much of the fun as the lyrics. Here's my take (apologies for the vocal quality, which was recorded at different times & locations with just my phone mic). All instruments played by me on keyboard; I kind of like the realism of the snare drum brushes in particular. still needs practice tho. 
Hope you find this song "love...ed"  ;)

here's the original video from the movie:

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve.   :)

Lyrics by Ralph Donkin

Drank a few beers
And a little rum
At the end of the night
I'd make my way home
Home was a house 
Half way up to the sky
Where I'd look down 
On the birds flying by

When life was so slow
And I did what I pleased
When my days were so full
Many moments to seize
When time was my own
With so much to waste
When life was straightforward
And not two faced

DON'T TAKE LIFE FOR GRANTED
TAKE IT ALL IN
WHEN WILL IT END
WHERE DID IT BEGIN
NOW I'M SO GRATEFUL
FOR THOSE LITTLE THINGS
THE AUTUMNS THE WINTERS
THE SUMMERS AND SPRINGS

But soon that time
Had  gone so fast
And soon that time
That I thought would last
Had disappeared
To who knows where
And all of a sudden
There's no time to spare

A Foolish Heart / Video link in Description

I am an unsigned singer/songwriter from Sunderland in the north east UK.

I have been writing songs for a few years now and have CD's on various web sites such as CD Baby, Itunes , Spotify etc.  My goal is to write good songs and hopefully have come up with a few along the way.

I love wring and recording songs – it gives me great pleasure staring from nothing but a blank piece of paper and finally coming up with something that sounds good.

I have collaborated with other people while being on Soundcloud – my long-time partner Ralph Donkin writes exceedingly good lyrics and between us have come up with many a good song.

My other partner Glen Granthem from Sacramento in USA has also been inspirational in my recordings – he is a very talented musician and producer and has brought life to many of my songs that otherwise would have been second rate.  We also have collaborated on many songs.

I have written songs with other people and I thank them from the bottom of my heart for their endeavours.

Thank you for all of you that have listened and commented on my songs and those who will in the future.  I am very grateful that you stopped by and listened – hope you have enjoyed what you have heard.

Again many thanks and good luck for the future in your musical endeavours.
