Well she danced amongst the flowers til the day that she died
Untrust worthy unfaithfull is what he testified
No amount of belief will asway his guilt
The cuckolds soul could not be rebuilt
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
Now She dances amongst the roses everyday
Moving to a beat as her ashes float away
The man of the cloth preaches a prayer
for the one who got lost who is no longer there
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
The saviour is back theres a sermon on the mount
To tell the the unbeleaver what the truth is about
The lyer sits quiet too afraid to speak
While the barman pulls a beer for the one who critiques
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
The judge hands out time like the speaking clock
While the innocent parties laugh and mock
Hemlock is the drink of the day
As the hangman sweats watching the bodies sway
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames

Original Songs / Re: Tell Me No Lies-Original
Last post by StephenM - Yesterday at 06:22:27 PMlove that cool keyboard shhhhhwwwwhhhh thing... that repeats... I don't think I have heard you use that before...
another lovely tune.. meanders about some big ideas and deep stuff. Not for small minded people. This is not 3 chord rock. It shifts about like a mountain stream ever gaining momentum and twisting and turning as it picks up more and more flow along its route to the larger water! The sax sounds great too... against that bass guitar. Drums are always perfect.
the vocals absolutely 100 percent fit this wonderful piece. solid stuff

Original Songs / Tell Me No Lies-Original
Last post by Johnbee - Yesterday at 02:10:48 PMHot off the press! Hope you enjoy. 
There is something I need to ask you
I need to know
Have you been telling me the truth
when you say you want only me?
I have reason to think
it never was as good as I thought
You say you love me but
your eyes have been growing so cold
Tell me no lies
Don't tell me what you think I want to hear
I won't compromise accepting a false hope
It's got to be real
I can't wait my whole life through
hoping I can believe you
Let me know the truth right now.
Somehow it doesn't feel the same as it used to feel
Where has the urgency to be with me gone?
It's no longer there
Most of the time when I look into your eyes
you quickly turn away
Do I detect a trace of a tear coming forth?
You don't want to stay
Tell me no lies.
If you no longer want me you've got to say so
Please don't play this game
I can tell you no longer feel the same
I won't waste so many years hoping you're not deceiving me
Please don't tell me I'm all wrong
Tell me no lies
Don't tell me things you think I want to hear
I won't compromise. I won't accept your excuses
It's got to be real
I won't spend my whole life through wondering if I'm second best
You'll break my heart like all the rest

General Discussion / Re: What are you listening to ...
Last post by bruno - Yesterday at 09:48:29 AMThis popped into my YouTube feed - and I thought it is a really great song. Not really listened to Schenker for years, but his playing is great on this, not fast, but great. And Graham Bonnet delivers a storm.

Just for Laughs / Re: Public service announcemen...
Last post by bruno - Yesterday at 09:42:01 AMI have quite a few guitars, including some expensive pro American made instruments but I still love my JV Fender Squire strat (it has a fender headstock). I've had it for 40 years - and is a great instrument built properly. Its never had any fret sprout in all that time, that means that the wood was cared for properly. Lovely instrument and stands up easily against my more expensive models. A good guitar is a good guitar irrespective of the brand.
