About

  • I'm a lyricist looking for musicians to write music to my lyrics.
I'm a lyricist and have collaborated with musicians to create quite a few decent songs - one of which won Tamworth Songwriters Award in January 2023. I like ballads, soft rock, country and comedy songs. I was lucky enough to live my teens in the 70s (some say I'm still there) so I've been inspired by Billy Joel, The Eagles, America, John Lennon (all the Beatles stuff actually) etc.
I'm no musician but I do create tunes in my head for the lyrics that I write and I enjoy the challenge of putting lyrics to musicians' tunes.
If I could one day hear one of my songs on radio, I'd die a happy man :)

Dreams & ambitions

I'd love to create songs with a like-minded songwriter. Someone who can benefit from my lyrics like I would benefit from their musical prowess.

Lyrics

Mister Insignificant

Folk, Singer-Songwriter

MISTER INSIGNIFICANT He’s the man who has to stand up on the bus He’s the man who hardly ever makes a fuss He’s the man who get his news feed every day He’s the man who hasn’t really much to say He’s the man whose life is oh so innocent And his name is Mister Insignificant He’s the man who waits there quiet in the queue You don’t notice and he doesn’t notice you He’s the man who you just shouldered in the street He’s the man who you will never ever meet He’s the man whose life is not magnificent And his name is Mister Insignificant CHORUS He’s the man who we all know But we never stop to say hello Wears an unfamiliar face Caught up in the mad rat race He’s so human you know He’s the man who cruises in the middle lane He’s as close as you can get to being sane He’s the man who’s hardly ever late for work And he thinks that people think that he’s a jerk And he cries when he thinks death is imminent And his time on Earth in insignificant CHORUS Yeah, he’s the man who we all know But we never stop to say hello Wears an unfamiliar face Caught up in the mad rat race He’s so human you know But one day somethin’ in his head just snaps Wreaks havoc with this momentary lapse His face is splashed on every TV screen The maddest guy the world has ever seen And the rating points are just magnificent And he’s no longer insignificant CHORUS Yeah he’s the man who we all know But we’d never stop to say hello Wearing that familiar face A victim of the mad rat race He’s not human you know He cannot be human, you know.
