or in this case, words...
still doodling away with some electronic weirdness over here on planet bwoi... but i can at this stage present to you an early (incomplete) draft of the lyrics to 'flatbread'...
its the one with at least half a shopping list, and a brief dabble in culinary territory...
not that you asked, but i am known for musing upon my own modus operandi, and it enables me to answer a question...
the question? do you ever write these things down?!
the answer? yes! and the paper is never bloody wide enough [must use less syllables]
[or get a bigger book]
they do actually all get written down at least once... sometimes its on a cardboard box, once in match on a paving stone, but i digress...
when i was on bridge FM, paul (the DJ) asked me whether i write the words or the music first... and really the answer is both... sometimes one-way, sometimes the other (nightmare answer i know - but its true)...
this one was words first, in the car, on the way back from the supermarket... and they're wrong. well the 'do-do do do' bit (kinda of a chorus) is anyway... now its much more science-y. some of the second verse is missing, and that last line is different (currently back to the monkey)...
structurally its a bit of a builder... but also a bit out there, but i like it, cos it allows me to repeat the "something missing... tiger, string-pull light... mirror" motif, and that was the late night 'eureka' line that made me want to roll with the idea...
i like the prawns line too...
so there you have it...
peace-out y'all

ps. i'd consider some-kinda prize if anyone out there fancies guess-humming the melody, and sending it to me?! i would say closest, but anything is good... reinterpretation is good for me too
beunos noches
