You might detect that I grew up listening to the Talking Heads during the 80’s.
A subtle mix of acoustic instruments, protest, punk, new wave and shoulder pads (optional)

After hearing Martijn’s weird bent reggae groove I had to get out the big guitar and figure something out.
For lyric inspiration I put my trust in a random word generator and it spat out this list of 20 nuggets of inspiration. (blimey)

rainbow
King
black bear
Kennedy
Instagram
Mars

Elon Musk

Here’s the lyrics, think I used them all :) Pella up soon

“Bent”

Look in the mirror
in the cold dark night
to the foot of my bed

Am I as pretty
as my Instagram face?
or am i too well fed?

I dont believe in that make believe
a running thru my head
or listen closely to them Kennedys
cause their nearly all dead

Cause I am bent
Cause I am bent

I dont believe in saving up my pennies
when they’re already spent
a crack of thunder through my bedroom wall
or is it heaven not sent?

Hey Goldilocks with your hair of gold
come in and try my bed?
Its king size
full of jealous black bears
like the nursery rhyme said

Cause I am bent
Cause I am bent

(spoken)Hey people please ignore the man behind the screen
looking for that straight banana
Give it up mister, pour me another Daiquiri, step into my cabana

I dont believe in electric cars
if they burn my toast
A future when we can all live on Mars
Mr Elon can boast
Dont understand the proposed solution
unless it pays my rent
Only six months until nuclear fusion
1960 they said!

Cause I am bent
and we’re all bent

Spray agent orange
on the pink mans porridge
cause I’m hating his coat
Hey Mr Limburg with your bright ideas
smear a rainbow in hope!

Its 420 as my watch gets heavy
and I’m feeling its dope
I wear a dress only special occasions
just dont call me the Pope

Cause I am bent
I’m sure he’s bent
and we’re all bent
I guess I’m bent…
