HAPPY BIRTHDAY KOMRADE!
From Rebsie with lyrical contributions by Epileptic Gibbon
From Rebsie with lyrical contributions by Epileptic Gibbon
Lyrics:
Well here's a song for Komrade KTo hammer out his birthday
We're sickle to death with birthday songs
With Komrade K though you can't go wrong
Then raise the kake and kandles high
Don't let the wax drip in your eye
And celebrate in dodgy verse
Best fiddler in the universe
MacJams conventions come and go
And still the scones and whisky flow
Although the scones aren't what they seem
They taste all right with clotted cream
He's Swarbrick with a Marxist twist
His birthday's here, let's all get pissed
And through the next hungover year
We'll keep the turnips frying here

Judith Durham would be proud (I don't think it's past tense yet) Rebsie.
Lovely, and very fitting for Martyn's 21st birthday. A glass of Guinness to you all - and I'll have one meself. Oh, and a little turnip as well if you like.
Happy birthday Martyn,

I know you'll be devastated to hear this Alan, but 'swede' is actually an abbreviation of 'Swedish turnip', even though it's botanically a separate species. (oh hell I really need to get out more)

Rebsie and Eppi - what can I say? This is fantastic! I am very, very touched (and not just in the head either...) It might be a birthday ditty but it's a lovely performance - I'm really happy you did this (and what a great choice of tune - I've always thought that it was rather lovely). Wonderfully sung and great lyrics reverberating with little (in-) jokes! Beauty and laughter combined - perfect!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

PS - Sadly from now on I'll probably be able to go into pubs without giving proof of my age...

Happy birthday, young'un!

Epileptic Gibbon , So Glad to see you writing and hope that continues on, very good words indeed. And Rebsie's
Voice is right on mark.
I do not know the Komrad but Happy Birthday from dwwave
in Akron, Ohio, USA. (Close to Cleveland Ohio where the Cuyahoga
River has been known to catch fire due to extreme pollution(though it is cleaning up (I think) , and even the Mayor (Mayor Perk in the 1970's caught his hair on fire while attending a steel mill opening.Strange Days!
I hope no fires were incurred in making this song or in the celebration of your Birthday!
Epileptic Gibbon
I came up with about a third of them but the majority were from Rebsie. It was a joy to contribute to such a worthwhile birthday project!

Great lyrics, guys! Pass me a turnip, would ya! Lovely voice, Rebsie. It's never not, is it. I wonder what you sound like at 6am?! :O)
You know, my voice is much deeper early in the morning with a big hangover, and I've considered setting the alarm and getting up and doing a one-take on some song or other just for the laugh of it!
Keep 'em coming, English rose. xxxxx
