Hi,
Here's a song about ambition that PaulyX started lyrically and then we developed into an attempt at a relatively modern - well this century - pop tune. It was good fun working together on it.
Anyway please let us know what you think about the song and suggestions.

Everything
We were stuck, we were stuck in a rut
Nothing ever happened to people like us
We knew our place, knew that sinking feeling
On our knees but still hit the glass ceiling
(But then we) Heard the news, and the news it was mental
If that could happen, all bets are cancelled
If that could happen I’m a monkey’s uncle
And the monkey says he’ll be king of the jungle
We could start our own art movement
A bit like the Vorticists with minor improvements
And a greater sense of our own importance
We could change the world, we just need an audience
We could write our own manifesto
Start a protest in the car park at Tesco
Or fill the skyline of mighty Manhattan
Just need to learn to straighten them wagons
So please don’t say it cant be done
No need to walk before we run
Its probable that everything is possible
I really do believe - in everything
You’ve got to stretch your imagination
Just like God at dawns creation
And let the genie out of the bottle
A tidal wave of the unstoppable
Was Icarus flying too close to the sun?
You’ll never know until its begun
Mao’s first step was the hardest
My Little Red Book is gonna be the largest
So please don’t say it cant be done
No need to walk before we run
Its probable that everything is possible
It really might be likely - everything
So please don’t say it cant be done
No need to walk before we run
Its probable that everything is possible
It really might be likely - everything
So please don’t say it cant be done
No need to walk before we run
Its probable that everything is possible
I really do believe - in everything c Sands/Connor 2019
