LYRIC FOR SALE

By Bernard Morris

(verse 1)
I can feel my brain bouncing up and down
When I turn my speakers up
My neighbour tells me it’s much too loud
He says that I disrupt
His peace and quiet but it’s not my fault
The walls are much too thin
I’ve told him to wear some earplugs
If he cannot stand the din

(chorus)
Music when played very loud
Stimulates the mind
Indie, Folk, Disco, Punk
It helps us to unwind

(verse 2)
I only play my music for an hour
Every day
I cannot play it less than that
No way
I need my music to make me happy
It raises my morale
Without it I may as well
Jump in the canal

(chorus)
Music when played very loud
Stimulates the mind
Indie, Folk, Disco, Punk
It helps us to unwind

(instrumental bridge)

(verse 3)
My speakers only go up to 10
They don’t even go up to 11
I told him this but he didn’t get it
My wit I need to lessen
He said he wouldn’t mind
But the music I played was crap
I said who are you into then?
He said Fleetwood Mac

(verse 4)
I said hold on I think I may have one by them
On my eclectic playlist
My great great great great grandfather was a very big fan
THAT one I couldn’t resist
There you go I said Albatross
That one will send you to sleep
He said do you have Rattlesnake Shake
I said I hope not for my own sake


(chorus)
Music when played very loud
Stimulates the mind
Indie, Folk, Disco, Punk
It helps us to unwind

(verse 5)
I don’t like your tone you’re trying to be clever
He said with a very big frown
Stop trying to be a smart arse
And turn those speakers down
So I turned them down to Number 2
Which is very low indeed
And I played Tusk by Fleetwood Mac and he said
Oh I love this one – turn it up please!

(chorus)
Music when played very loud
Stimulates the mind
Indie, Folk, Disco, Punk
It helps us to unwind
