Bassman - Funny how people never ceases to amaze me!

Thought I'd start the ball rolling with this....

I wanna hurt you, just to hear you screaming my name - Poison, Alice Cooper.

It's a song of a merryman, moping mum,
Whose soul was sad, and whose glance was glum,
Who sipped no sup, and who craved no crumb,
As he sighed for the love of a ladye.

Looks like it might be just you and me, Bassman. Do you know this one? It's about a man dying of asbestosis.

He fades away
Not like leaves that fall in autumn
Turning gold against the grey
He fades away
Like the bloodstains on the pillow case
That I wash every day
He fades away

You can hear the whole thing on

Very moving.

I've been playing for over 28 years now and have sat and tried to write songs over the years, but have never once been satisfied with anything I ever wrote. I just don't have the gift....
