What you're saying sure needs something to succeed What you're playing – riffs are good but inbetween? Raise your hands up make 'the jazz hands' Raise your hands up mate (Two thumbs and the other eight) You wave and you wave Like you're off on a holiday When you're dancing like an icecube in the pool No one’s looking - lift your fingers stretch them tall Raise your hands up make 'the jazz hands' Raise your hands up mate (Two thumbs and the other eight) You wave and you wave Like you're off on a holiday Raise your hands up make 'the jazz hands' Raise your hands up mate (Two thumbs and the other eight) You wave and you wave Like you're off on a holiday

When you wake up and it’s cold When you wake up and you’ve done as you were told When you feel it’s getting old And when you ask them it’s “a no” And when you ask them why it’s “no” they won’t tell you. They won’t tell you why they put the hoodoo on you. They put it on you, they put it on you. And then you ask them why it’s “no” They tell you that it’s apropos Oh, save me Won't someone save me? Please somebody, please! Oh save me Won't someone save me? Please somebody, please! In the morning in the mode When you feel that you have got to crack a code Or the pieces will implode. It’s the power of ‘the no’ It’s the power of ‘the no’ Oh, save me Won't someone save me? Please somebody, please! Oh save me Won't someone save me? Please somebody, please! When you wake and it’s cold When you wake up and you’ve done as you were told When you feel it’s getting old And when you ask them “it’s a no” And when you ask them why it’s “no” they won’t tell you.

Scientists, working away Making things nobody's made Look at them, holding hands Making all their scientist plans What they know, we'll never understand Eureka moments every day Scientists working away KICK ARSE SCIENTISTS - HEY! Hydrogen Peroxide! Magnesium! Phosphorpus! Scientists try the perverse Explaining the universe Thinking sub-atomically Helping out our society I can't help but wish that it was me Findings cures for awful things Scientists, better than kings! KICK ARSE SCIENTISTS - HEY! Protons and electrons Quarks and leptons All the sub-atomic particles Gluons, woah woah! Photons Cosmic rays!

The Air - thick and cold The wind - yet untold go man yeah! Gonna flap little wing gonna make a split Gotta wrinkle my nose and make some chaos - oh yeah! Gonna sit at the back of the bottom line Yelling into force nine - so help me... The Sea - flat and fine The calm, placid brine Oh yeah! Gonna shift all the shale, whip the pebbles up All the bubbles and spouts all liquid chaos - oh yeah! With a breakwater brace holding back the tide Sitting daring the waves to take me Oh you breakers never to forsake me I am there! So festooned is my life! The black - endless night The dust- beyond sight yeah man yeah! Gonna clump little grains build a pebble up Send it spinning away all helped by… Chaos - oh yeah! Squish the gas in my hands till it comes alight Do it billions of times - throughout time! Oh you star-stuff, curiously enoug I am there! So festooned is my life!

Oh this wind has lasted for days Oh this wind has lasted for days and it just will not abate Scampering through blistering snow Scavenging for food as he goes and they're there somewhere he knows He can see them all in his mind There’s a fund out there he must find Oh the sleet and the lashing hail Oh the sleet and the lashing hail and a quest that cannot fail Scratching at the ground with his hands Digging through the ice of the land This is not how it was planned! Oh the nut hoard Quest for the nut hoard Oh the icicles on his tail Oh the icicles on his tail and the wind is off the scale Trying to decipher the snow Secrets covered up down below and the private cache he knows Oh the nut hoard Quest for the nut hoard And the search goes on Where have his nuts gone?

Left for dead, in a puddle of his own sweat by a fiend without a face Mortified, trying extra hard not to cry feels a traitor to his race For today, all the chips and machine coding left him stuck in second place Tries to sneak out of the back door Cameras flash, ideals clash It’s so wrong The execs and programmers toast their success ‘cause it won a game of chess what a super-duper breakthrough An event, artificial intelligence, super-human more or less Now we know in the future, where it might go time to work on our defence Now he leaves, can’t believe that he lost

about

Steve Chenlz Brighton, UK

I'm Steve Chenlz. I write songs and record them.

I make music to please myself. I enjoy the whole process of composition and recording and am learning more about production as I get older.

I share my music here just for the sake of sharing. No pretence or high ideals. If you choose to listen then thank you!
