One Trick Pony
Some one said I`m just
a one trick pony
Just write funny songs and
that i`m a phony
Well maybe i am
some say i can`t play
maybe i can`t and by the way
can you can you
Only make public funny songs
easy to understand and play
there`s plenty `bout personal pain
Plenty more `bout profit and gain
Political, social comment, and more
songs `bout troubles and beating the blues
songs `bout being a love sick fool
So yeah, if that`s one trick pony
that`s me.

`Finger to the knockers`
About my writing song
I`m taking a bit of flak
Some say ok
But others say they crap
So think i`ll stop writing
It`s knocked my con..fi..dence
writing songs putting out there
Is like walking down main st. naked
a lot of laughing & pointing
particularly at the little bits
so i`ll stay with guitar
just stick to strum
then i won`t be naked
no one laughing at my bum

Topic: Please help yourself (2 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Gidday,
recently i received a recording from the brilliant Phill Williams
Great singer /guitarist/song writer.
He picked up on one of my song/poem added some chords
& sang it, sent me a copy.
i can`t even begin to explain how much this meant to me
hearing some of my stuff actually played & sung!
Many many thanks Phill.
I`m pretty useless at that stuff,so having written 90 songs
lately i can`t really sing them myself.
If any of u see just a tiny bit of something in any of my stuff
please give it a try. I`d love to hear the results.
thanks
very happy Brian ( thanks again Phill)

Re: Criticism (17 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Gidday
Good subject,i`m not a song writer,i just scribble stuff down.
Some times i call it a song sometimes a poem.
I don`t care what anyone thinks,i just need to get them out
of my head and written down some where.Hence i probably won`t get any good.
If someone likes it as is thats a bonus.
Funny thing though,i gave a song to a friend.She did it, really differently
to how i did it.At first i was flattered that someone wanted one of my
scribbles. Really loved what she did to it,but she added two lines,they
where rhyme lines.
I felt that changed the whole integrity,I`m still not sure how i feel now.
