Bad Timing

Lyrics © 2022 Formidable Vegetable

I’m good at getting bad timing right
I’m good at getting bad timing right
Alright at getting good timing wrong
I’m good at getting bad timing right
Woah, yeah. Bad timing

Well, I keep missing trains and buses
Sometimes I even miss the point
My friends all keep on making fusses
But I don’t mean to disappoint
I’ve just… I’ve just got… Bad timing

I said I’m good at getting bad timing right
Not bad at getting wrong timing good
I’m alright at timing good gettin’ bad
Time bad I’m good right wrong ’n get

I never stop to look and listen
I just don’t know what’s going on
Keep tripping up on stuff I’m missing
I’m so tired of getting good timing wrong
Yeah.. just… got… Bad… Ti… ming

Tell 'Em You're Dreaming

 Lyrics © 2022 Charlie Mgee

(Chords: Cm F7 G7)

Tell em you’re dreaming
We need more dreamers like you
Tell em you’re dreaming
Cos dreams lead to things that you do
When you see in your mind
What can be, then in time
You just might make your dreams come true

When I was younger
They told me I was no good
But I was a dreamer
And so I knew that I would
Change up the scene with stuff I’d dream
And one that came true
Was making music and
you can make up whatever you want to do
and go dream it too

So tell em you’re dreaming
We need more dreamers like you
Tell em you’re dreaming
Cos dreams lead to things that you do
When you see in your mind
What can be, then in time
You just might make your dreams come true

Don’t be a nay sayer
Be a Yay sayer
Don’t be a dooms-dayer
Say a dream prayer
Whether it’s world peace
Or climbing the Himalayas
All kinds of dreams come true

So tell em you’re dreaming
And then tell somebody else
Tell em you’re dreaming
Don’t keep your dreams to yourself

There’s so much in our lives
That we need to make right
With our dreams we can try
Tuning dark into light
So dream big and aim high
And in time, we just might
Make a whole load of dreams come true

Fluff

Lyrics © 2022 Charlie Mgee

(Chords: A D E7 Bm)

Sometimes this crazy world
Gets carried away
But deep down I feel
Its gonna all be OK
Can’t say where we’re going
Or what’s up ahead
But we can wonder about the future
Or just make it up instead

Here’s something made up
It’s powerful stuff
And it needs a fun word
So let’s call it ‘Fluff’
It’s not mine to keep
But it needs to get out
So if you’ve got it, go get it
And share it around

Give Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff to everyone
Have Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
And make everything out of
Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
Cos there’s always enough
Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, that’s the stuff

Sometimes I see that Fluff
On faces in the crowd
Young or old it doesn’t matter
It’s there hanging out
I see it in Mum
I see it in Dad
I see it in my friends
And I am so glad we have

Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff for everyone
Give Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
And make everything out of
Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
Cos there’s always enough
Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, that’s the stuff

Lately I’ve come to realise
That Fluff is all around us
Inside and outside
And I’m glad that it found us
And the more that we share it
The more that there’ll be
And it’s time to set all this Fluff free

So Fluff into the sky
And Fluff into the land
I Fluff all over you
Well, I hope you understand

That the thing about Fluff
Is it never, ever ends
So Fluff with me now
And Fluff on all your friends

Give Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff to everyone
Have Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
And make everything out of
Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
Cos there’s always enough
Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, that’s the stuff

Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff for everyone
Have Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
And make everything out of
Fluff, Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
Cos there’s always enough

Earthday Birthday

Lyrics © 2022 Charlie Mgee

(Chords: F F7 Bb7 C)

Happy happy happy happy birthday
The trees and the bees and birds say
We’re so happy that you’re on the Earth, yay!
Happy happy happy happy birthday

Happy happy happy happy birthday
You’ve got it going on for what it’s worth, hey!
Grown another flower in your bouquet
Happy happy happy happy birthday

Happy happy happy happy birthday
Another year, you’ve really come a long way
Everyone together now we all say
Happy happy happy happy birthday!

More

Lyrics © 2022 Charlie Mgee

(Chords: Cm G7)

I spy a nice pie, tasty and sweet
Perhaps I should wait, save it for a treat
But I crave pastry and I’m hasty to eat
I take a small bite, but I’m still incomplete

I want more
I want more
Give me more

I want more
I want more
Give me more

Well, now the pie’s gone, if you wanted some, tough!
But I can’t shake the feeling that my life is so rough
Pieless people keep smiling, but I’m in a huff
And what is this stuff that they call ‘Enough’?

I want more
I want more
Give me more

I want more
I want more
Give me more

More of that
And I’ll take that
Some of that
And I’ll take more of that
Give me that!
I’ll take that… and that
And that I’ll take all of that

Hold on. Wait
What are you doing? It’s not the end of the song!
Play more!

I want more
I want more
Give me more

I want more
I want more
Give me more

I want more
I want more
Give me more

But There’s no more
There’s no more
Anymore

I’ve made a mess, I confess
Not one slice of pie is left
And I’m distressed and depressed
But wait, what’s this in this dusty old chest?
Lets see… It reads L E S S.
What? Less!?
But…

I want more
I want more
Give me more

I want more
I want more
Give me more

Yes, I want more
I want more
Give me more

I want more
I want more
Give me more

Ow wawnt maww
Ow wawnt maww
Give me mawwww
What’s going on?

Ow wawnt maww
Ow wawnt maww
Give me mawwww
Oh no, I’m a guitar!

Is this meant to be funny?
James! Who authorised this?
I wanted a symphony orchestra, not a rock opera!
Get me out of this blasted ensemble, this instant!
I can’t hear myself think!
Oh dear, this is getting ridiculous
‘Have more’, they said, ‘It will be wonderful’, they said
Will somebody switch it off!?
Silence!!
Right, joke’s over!
Turn it off!
All the way off!
Less!
That’s enough!
