Three lyrics on Sunday

'You won't be able to do it, boss.'

Don't bring me down with your negative vibes, man.

Listen! I'm not talking about polished lyrics. I'm just talking about strumming my guitar the whole day while putting words into Life and Death, And Rain Came Down, and The Future. I already have the chorus lyrics for the last two. And I have a few ideas for Life and Death.

It's possible. I can do it. The lyrics might even be "polished" by the end of the day. Who knows?!

Let's be positive, kooks!

'What about that other tune?'

That other tune ... I don't have a title for it, or any concept. That tune will have to wait. But let me finish the BIG TEN first. 'The elixir of rock and roll immortality!' Yeah, yeah. That's right.

...

My demo???

Demo, demo, demo ...

What was my demo going to be, a few years ago?

This World Don't Mean a Thing
Lucky You
Round The Bend
What's This Life We Live?

And that would have been pretty decent, BUT(!) ... I was really relying on This World Don't Mean a Thing to get me out of the shit - as it were.

Well ...

Mighty Soul
Shady, Dodgy, Shifty
Nothing
Stella

 ... is SOMETHING ELSE, you dig? / Whatever you're doing in life, dear reader(s), don't listen to fools who tell you that delays and setbacks are a terrible thing. "Do it! Do it now!" ... could just mean ... "Screw up now. Make a mess now."

And, uh, Christ ... the 2016 demo, that I actually put online for a short while???

She Loves Me
You're Lying
Gilly, Gilly

Which quickly became ...

It's Just a Joke, Man
She Loves Me
You're Lying

Man, those songs don't even exist no more! They are ex-songs. They have ceased to be.

'They have joined the choir invisible, Mikey.'

Fuckin' A they have, Voice! May they rest in peace.

Laters.
