Knit
In was held last week,
but many of us
were unable to help.
We've tried to learn to knit, we've
found it impossible.
What was
a skill you tried really hard to learn,
but found you just couldn't manage it?
Colin
Buchanan.
I've got a little tune that
I've worked on for this.
So, alright.
I've watched
Dylan and
Hendrix,
James
Taylor and
Sting
Pick up a guitar and they
just did their thing
But try as you might,
morning, noon an d night
It was all so completely beyond you
They rocked and they rolled,
they were tuneful
and strong
A marriage of melody and
music and song
But when you try the same,
you're so totally lame
And the children next door
start a -cryin'
Don't learn the guitar an
d don't try to sing
I've heard enough and
it's just not your thing
Friends will encourage you
and say you're doin' great
But it's all just a lie,
they're just bein' your mate
There, don't make your own music,
whatever you do
Cos just about everyone's
better than you
Wait, wait, we've got the last little bit
And a word to the would -be's,
the hopeful, the eager
Your chances are slim
and your talent is meagre
You'll never be
Bono or even
Bob
Seger
Thank you, cause just about
everyone's better than you.
