Hi Jack. This sounds like a really interesting project. Not the kind of thing I have done before, but would love to give it a go. How are you taking input?

Col

Greetings,

Electric violinist and harmony vocalist when it comes to performance. Many years of professional playing. 16 years as an English and Drama teacher, so suspect I might have a clue what you need, but require more info. I did take a look at some of your sites and stuff, all lovely, but I'd only sign on to spend time further if you have a clear idea of a) a theme b) specific genre/mix for what I might write c) a bit more on the final realization of the "something" you intend.

Cheers,

Sean

Dear Jack,

I write lyrics and I attach a couple of them herewith to give you an idea of what I can do. If you feel that this style of writing is suitable for your music, please let me know.

You're my cup of tea (Version 2 )

© 2009 Roderick Macdonald

Verse 1

You may not be pretty, you may not be smart,

Your hair not so neat, your eye-shadow too dark,

But I know very well what you are to me,

Not my cup of coffee, but my cup of tea.

Verse 2

You don't say very much but what you say you say well,

And from your face and your eyes it's easy to tell,

That you're frank, and sincere, and honest with me,

You're loyal and true, you're my cup of tea.

Bridge Beauty is skin-deep is what they surmise,

It's the beholder who sees where real beauty lies,

And deep in my heart I know this is true,

Because I can see the real beauty is you.

Verse 3

When you ask me the reason why I love you so,

I have to admit that I really don't know,

You're attractive and charming in ways I can't see,

Ways that have made you my cup of tea.

Chorus My sweetheart, my darling,

You're so nice to me,

You're lovely, you're charming,

You're my cup of tea.

Ohmigosh!

Verse 1

A dizzy blonde,

With curly locks,

Whenever she speaks,

It's Ohmigosh!

Eyes of blue,

Expressing shock,

What does she say,

It's Ohmigosh!

Chorus Ohmigosh, Ohmigosh, Ohmigosh, all the day.

Why does she continually talk in this way,

It's because she always for words at a loss,

And can only remember to say Ohmigosh.

Verse 2

She gets her news

From the gogglebox,

And when something happens

It's Ohmigosh!

She goes to a restaurant

Really posh,

She's so impressed

She says Ohmigosh!

Bridge She's a girl who's a litle bit thick,

Her mental uptake is not very quick,

To figure out what people have said,

Always gives her a pain in the head,

So her every reaction is to smile quite a lot,

And breathlessly gasp Ohmigosh, Ohmigosh!

Verse 3

About what to say

She knows not a lot,

But what she does know

Is Ohmigosh!

Nice she is,

But clever she's not,

So on every occasion

It's Ohmigosh!

If you have melodies looking for lyrics, send them on to me and I will write the words. I usually work on a 50/50% collaboration basis.

I look forward to hearing from you at

Best wishes,
