Just before you make a wish Keep your eyes shut tight Try it now and Do it with all your might If you wish for what you need Then it might come true Wishing for piffle and nonsense Will not do, oh no Let me tell you ‘bout Let me tell you ‘bout Let me tell you ‘bout How I see it We are here on Mother Earth And she is spinning round And she is packed with tiny miracles That we have found And if you want to see some more You’d better make a sound Tell those nitwits They are not doing what she needs Though it seems incredible I don’t think they care As long as what they’re doing Doesn’t affect them S’posed to be looking after things On our behalf Truly these are amongst The worst of men Let me tell you ‘bout Let me tell you ‘bout Let me tell you ‘bout How I see it We are here on Mother Earth And she is spinning round And she is packed with tiny miracles That we have found And if you want to see some more You’d better make a sound Tell those nitwits They are not doing what she needs We are here on Mother Earth And she is spinning round And she is packed with tiny miracles That we have found And if you want to see some more You’d better make a sound And tell those nitwits They are not doing what she needs Tell those nitwits They are not doing what she needs And tell those nitwits They are not doing what she needs

Jimmy the Grin Doesn’t like the skin he’s in, no So he pretends To have big adventures We don’t make a fuss Jimmy’s one of us Jimmy the Grin Doesn’t like the skin he’s in, no I can blame his mum ‘Cos she used to say: ‘Jimmy, you’re special’ We don’t make a fuss Jimmy’s one of us Jimmy had girl Way back when She disappeared into the night Jimmy had a girl He was so happy then Since that time he hasn’t been right Jimmy the Grin Doesn’t like the skin he’s in, no I can blame his dad Drunken Tony He was bad news Gave us all the blues I remember that night I still hear Drunken Tony shouting We don’t make a fuss Jimmy’s one of us Jimmy had a job Putting little things in boxes Jimmy was doing ok Jimmy was slow Too slow for his bosses So they sent him home But they still pay We don’t make a fuss Jimmy’s one of us As long as we’re around He’ll be safe and sound We don’t make a fuss Jimmy’s one of us .

Crazy Daisy’s living off the land She lives off things she finds Things others leave behind Crazy Daisy’s living off the land She doesn’t need a lot She’s quite content with what she’s got Though it might be hard to understand Crazy Daisy’s living off the land Crazy Daisy comes from somewhere else There’s something in her eyes Something that’s young and wise Crazy Daisy comes from somewhere else And though it sounds absurd She never says a word Crazy Daisy comes from somewhere else Crazy Daisy’s coming to our house Meeting her has turned our lives around And we can tell you about it We were lost, but now we’re safe and found And we can tell you about it Tell you about it Can’t do without it Crazy Daisy’s staying at our place Just for a little while Because we like her style Crazy Daisy’s staying at our place Now we feel everything We feel her dance and sing Crazy Daisy’s lighting up our place Crazy Daisy and her smiling face Meeting her has turned our lives around And we can tell you about it We were lost, but now we’re safe and found And we can tell you about it Tell you about it Can’t do without it Crazy Daisy’s local fame has spread And the authorities Are feeling ill-at-ease Crazy Daisy’s put things in our heads And now we have to know Question the status quo They came after Crazy Daisy’s head And sent the Joybreakers With guns for her But she just smiled And their guns turned into Candy floss and bubble gum and wine And everyone had a chew and a slurp And a pink sugar high And we all felt fine .

How about the weather? Crazy weather? We’ve got snow in July Everything is upside down Everything is upside down What have we done to earn this? What have we done to earn this? Floods and droughts Fires and hurricanes We’ve done something wrong This is pay us back And I’m I’m not saying there’s a god but If he’s there watching us, and he’s Sent this stuff to get us out of here What chance do we have? What chance do we have? What have we done to earn this? What have we done to earn this? I never thought of myself as a praying man But I said that I ought to try it Maybe it’s part of the plan? And I’m, I’m not saying there’s a god but If there is, he’s laughing And he’s thinking: ‘this will get them out!’ What can we do to redeem ourselves? To redeem ourselves I’m going to take Theology I need faith What have we done to earn this? What have we done to earn this? What have we done to earn this? What have we done to earn this? What have we done to earn this? What have we done to earn this? .

about

bushytunes Christmas Island

Once upon a time there was a crazy idea: to create, record and upload a musical track every day for a year. And the idea floated round and round the planet, looking for a place to call home. After a long time of searching and wishing and watching, the idea chose to make a nest in the brain of a bushy fellow, coming to his aid and guiding him out of the doldrums, back to a magical pathway... ... more
