Alright, so festive songs are supposed to be bashed out really quickly, then return to embarrass you years later, right? I mean that's the brief, right?
So here's my entry. Something about a penniless chap aiming to be less of a d*ckhead towards his significant other next year. (Note to self).
Happy Yuletide bruthas & sistas and good luck in the comp...
https://soundcloud.com/commodore-64/circuit-of-the-sun/s-4HhZZ Circuit of the SunI didn't do half the things that I said I would
You didn't get half as mad as we both know you should have
I always thought I had more time until one day I didn't
I was in half a mind to downscale my ambitions
But tonight at midnight it's the turning of the year
I wanted to do something to take us both away from here
My cards are at the limit but I've booked us both a ticket
For one more circuit of the sun
I don't have much to offer but it would be my honour
If you would sit beside me on a circuit of the sun
Last time we went overseas I came close to marching orders
You said "Start a charity, call it idiots without borders"
Once you said I was full of promise, now I'm just full of promises
Next year I'm gonna make it up, or so goes my hypothesis
Tonight at midnight the calendar's reset
I wanted to say something... but what it was now, I forget
My cards are at the limit but I've booked us both a ticket
For one more circuit of the sun
I don't have much to offer but it would be my honour
If you would sit beside me on a circuit of the sun
Na na na
Baaaa.....
