Description
This is a little song that's been floating around a while. I now have two mics so slapped it down in one shaky take, accoustic and voice.
I'd anticipated recording it properly this weekend but was not allowed to 'make noise' in the house so thought I'd just place layers using quiet electric instruments on what I had to get a rough idea of how it might eventually sound. Sadly I ended up having less than an hour of studio time, so have to leave in all the shoddy improvised takes.

Lyrics
D Am7
Tony Blair wants you
Cmaj7 G
For the United States army
D Am7
Adopting the famous Uncle Sam pose
Cmaj7 G
He's wagging his finger at you
D
From off of a poster
A
Determined to toast you
Em
You could quit your dead end job
C G
Get a paid-for education
Em
Lose a few pounds and get fit
C G
On an adventure vacation
D
Til you get called to action
Asus2/A
Watch your family's reaction
Cos Tony Blair wants you
For the United States Army
On a jolly planned in Iran
Now persian boots are quaking
Waiting for you boys
It's time to down toys
You could die a meaningless death
And they won't tell you why
'Died securing an oil supply'
Until the well turns dry
And we're all buggered anyway
What a pointless price to pay
And Tony Blair wants you
For the United States Army
His famous fixed grin grows
More menacing by the day
And he don't give up easily
Clings to power so weasily
Tony tony blair wants you..
Tony Blair wants you
Cmaj7 G
For the United States army
D Am7
Adopting the famous Uncle Sam pose
Cmaj7 G
He's wagging his finger at you
D
From off of a poster
A
Determined to toast you
Em
You could quit your dead end job
C G
Get a paid-for education
Em
Lose a few pounds and get fit
C G
On an adventure vacation
D
Til you get called to action
Asus2/A
Watch your family's reaction
Cos Tony Blair wants you
For the United States Army
On a jolly planned in Iran
Now persian boots are quaking
Waiting for you boys
It's time to down toys
You could die a meaningless death
And they won't tell you why
'Died securing an oil supply'
Until the well turns dry
And we're all buggered anyway
What a pointless price to pay
And Tony Blair wants you
For the United States Army
His famous fixed grin grows
More menacing by the day
And he don't give up easily
Clings to power so weasily
Tony tony blair wants you..
But the end ? it's shuld be better.
