about

Periodically I get writers block. I always have plenty of tunes but subject matter for the lyrics? More difficult. I’ve practically written all I can about my life so topics become more precious. After a few months in one of these dead periods, from goodness knows where came the lines: “Gonna catch the first plane to Caracas, why go somewhere that’s far too safe. Gonna find a girl who plays maracas, gonna ask her out with all her mates”. “Yes” I cried in jubilation, “I’ve still got it!”. And so began a tale of mid life crisis which hits all males in my experience. Watch out for 45 year old men!

lyrics

Gonna rent my house out to a stranger
Gonna let them treat it like their own
Gonna move abroad and try some danger
Gonna try a taste of the unknown

I’ve spent my whole life being safe and steady
Now it's time to roll the dice

To live or live not
That is the question
To Love or love not
Before my times up
To lose the whole plot
Let's skip confession
To Sin or sin not
I've made my mind up

Gonna catch the first plane to Caracas
Why go somewhere that’s far too safe
Gonna find a girl who plays maracas
Gonna ask her out with all her mates

And we'll go dancing till the sun comes up
Sleep all day then start again

To live or live not
Start the ignition
To give all I've got
Let's seize the day
Let's stop the rot
C-carpe diem
To Dare or dare not
That's what I say
