Here's one hot off the presses.
I always like songs which have a turnaround or twist in the title like 'You're my favourite waste of time' by Owen Paul or 'Favourite mistake' by Sheryl Crow and I developed these autobiographical lyrics around this title.
And Scub was recently talking about keeping things dead simple, so guitar in hand it all came together over a Saturday. I've tried to keep the arrangement direct and simple too.
So please let me know what you think, thanks in anticipation

https://soundcloud.com/neilconnor-2Always been that way ever since I was small
Teachers told me to concentrate, when all I was, was bored
Always been that way, I guess I always will
Looking for the next adventure for the latest thrill
So distract me like there is no other
Attract me and then run for cover
Easily distracted. There’s so many things to do.
Easily distracted. But not with you.
I’m of the species, I'm on the spectrum
Excite, delight so many things to do
So find me my lyrics and give me a plectrum
I've written this song for you
Concentration has its time and place
But playing wins in each and every case
Easily distracted. There’s so many things to do.
Easily distracted. But not with you.
Patience is a virtue I never learnt in school
Patience is a virtue that I learnt to bend because of you
Always been that way ever since I was small
Teachers told me to concentrate, when all I was, was bored
Always been that way, I guess I always will
Looking for the next adventure for the latest thrill
So distract me like there is no other
Attract me and then run for cover
Easily distracted. So many things to do.
Easily distracted.
Easily distracted. So many things to do.
Easily distracted. But not with you.
