I look forward to hearing Phill do this song. Jim you have a magic way with lyrics.  Hope you get over the flu soon Phill.     

There was a girl who had a ring in her nose.
And one in her belly.
She served vegetarian food .
From her trendy Deli.
Even though she was sweet.
With plenty to eat.
I prefer plates with meat.
Young men who saw her.
Bowed down at her feet.
Not for me.
The  thought of trying to kiss her feet.
As sadly her feet might be smelly.
And wouldn't go down well when I ate meat.
I loved her Deli.
All colorful  was her special jelly.
She served with cream, coffee and something sweet.
Maybe she should have a show on tele.
The girl with the deli.
And sweet looking feet.

Good Knight
Sir Phill
Your a  scribe and a scholar.
You give this page a good fill.
From the Capital of this  new said land.
I wish you good will.
And a shake of the hand.   
Keep up your writing.
My good man.

Good one Phill.
I once met a man who couldn’t speak.

Sadly he couldn’t reach his peak.

He couldn’t even make a squeak.

His shoulders were his peak.

Didn’t need a pillow.

Had no eyes to close.

Or nose between the eyes.

He never told lies.

He believed in the  truth,

Didn’t need  a dentist as  he had no tooth’s.

He was always going to be poor.

Never own a house and more.

As he could never get a head.

He never got embarrassed.

His face never went red.

Its not easy not having a head.

I was writing about a lady called Miss Information from the land of inexactitudes and half truths. False ideologies  producing anger that drives many  to a point where it loses it constructiveness. I am just saying buyer beware or as the legal jargon goes caveat emptor of the real driving force behind what could appears to be good.. Not sure where EB is coming from.     For me it is worrying watching the big power players and how they are positioning themselves in the world. The ability of leaders to manipulate their followers or subvert opposing peaceful voices. No apocalipse warning from me I get warn ( worn)out listening to all the crystal ball gazers and all those crazies trying to ruin humanity.
Caveat emptor NOUN the principle that the buyer alone is responsible for checking the quality and suitability of goods before a purchase is made. My way of saying beware of vipers and snakes.

You don’t want to be suffering from Vertigo.

When your walking on a tightrope.

Fed by lies from those on high.

Sitting in their fancy spires.

Their power chord plugged into a devious grid.

Agendas unclear.

Catch phrases.

Marketing ploys.

Psychological hazes.

Used by Hitler many others through ages.

Manipulators of the sell sending everyone to hell.

Casting of wicked spells.

Their chanting audience.

Stuck in a trance.

Mimicking words.

Mass hysteria spreading to a mindless herd.

Lemmings jump on board join the absurd.

Follow the herd.

Their fancy tight rope won't save you.

Strung from cliff to cliff

Even on solid ground.

Vertigo can get you..

When up there .Acrophobia hits those who think they will fall.

Those who live up on the canopy.

I hope you wake up.

The innocent won't break your fall.

Under your bad weight branches can break.

People beware of people at the top who are fake.

There is only so much people can take.     

Cheers Piri

I am on new meds that are making me feel a lot better than what I have for a while. That high note was one of those test tickle moments.

A squeeze of the hand on a vital gland.

Helped this silly sod.

Reach high notes like he never had before.

Before he paid his money and got thrown out the door.

Beware good folks his singing coach with a Jewelry broach.

A beautiful girl

With the obvious name of Pearl.

Was no real Lady.

In fact, she was shady.

Worked part time as a stripper.

To help feed her nippers.

Is a singing teacher and more.

Note I wrote a singing teacher and a word that rhymes with war.

Has squeezed high notes from many a boy before.

Those who wanted to do more.

Than what they paid for.     

Nature the perfect place to be  to get rid of the things that the daily grind can throw at us. That feeling that an irritating little  pebble in  a shoe gives us  that needs getting rid of before we can  tackle the big boulders that try and block our path through life at times can be dealt with  in quiet places on land, sea and hills. Excellent song. I like those lines of yours.
I figure out to do,
Going anywhere I want
With the people I want too.

Jeff I should of said at the start of the post the chords of this song came from me composing  it on a piano. Guitar I have very little idea.  I  played guitar a little before my hands and arms started to give out  only by feel and had l no idea what I was playing. So I guess if it works with Barre chords go for it. I tried to have a quick bash at it with barre chords just now my fingers were too weak to make it work. My theory is very minimal when it comes to music. Basically I would say whatever a person thinks works best then play it with whatever chords you think fit. When I play guitar with my friends that play guitar good I have to ask them what  some of the chords are I'm playing. I have done a piano run through of the song but my playing and singing was really bad on it  so I didn't put it up.
