Perfectly Frank by The Irate Pirates published on 2019-02-11T21:31:01Z A live take with a second piano over dub for the 'hit some highs' section. Rehearsal snippet... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFuu8_U4pxg I had a song, I was working on then it all went wrong I don't know why So I made a move to substantially improve what I had, but the dream just passed me by Beep beep beep beep beep it's my morning alarm gotta work on my charm to get the punters in to listen to the songs I'm singing... Beep beep beep beep beep I'm facing defeat, stats in retreat haven't had a like on a song since a week on Monday So tell your friends (if you have any friends) to come along and stroke my ego ! I'd appreciate if no-one's late but if you're late I've got a sliding scale of fines... I had a job, that suited me till they booted me I don't know why. So I made a move to substantially improve what I had, but luck still passed me by. Beep beep beep beep beep its my morning alarm My dream bought the farm an' that's a shame but that's the game we're playing Beep beep beep beep beep, the Suns in the sky I'm searching for why I haven't got the perfect lifestyle Hit some highs in my time, clear blue skies sparkling wine, but right now things are slightly less than perfect, ever so slightly less than perfect, for me Made some friends, broke some rules, sang me some songs with people so cool but right now, things are falling short of perfect ever so slightly short of perfect, for me... I had a life I was happy in then I took one on the chin and to be perfectly frank I could cry.... Don't worry if life can sometimes reduce you to tears. It's when it can't that you have a problem...:) Genre Piano Vocal Comment by James Neilson Graham I think you would like Duncan Abbott . . . 2020-12-23T15:58:26Z Comment by Miaow McDonald hahah! love it! 2020-08-28T19:12:55Z Comment by Miaow McDonald quirky! 2020-08-28T19:12:14Z Comment by James Neilson Graham Delightful! 2020-05-13T08:40:57Z Comment by Chris Wiggs Love this plea to the void.

Wishing you ‘perfect’ but what to do should we get it? 2019-05-11T11:26:04Z Comment by burn-it-smith What a little treasure both lyric & key! 2019-03-30T23:31:39Z Comment by The Irate Pirates @tbone711: Thank you...yes even a pirate can stuggle with those highs C's :) 2019-03-04T09:00:18Z Comment by Little Lone Waltz Your deliberately self-deprecating lyrics are always so charming!! 2019-02-28T07:19:41Z Comment by C h r i s t i a n W a l s h you got my like - 15 days late 2019-02-27T12:02:45Z Comment by The Secret Red Orchestra Beautiful 2019-02-19T18:57:20Z Comment by Jonathan Beckenstein What a wry pleasure. I'd like it five times if they'd let me. And what a rare pleasure, too, to see you at work! 2019-02-14T21:15:47Z Comment by PFawkes To be frank... I "beep" loved this. Haven't listened to a great deal recently (last couple of year). Looks like I have a lot to catch up on - Moonchild was excellent (a somehow slightly darker feel - some lovely subtleties in there.) 2019-02-13T02:27:15Z
