Kev! That was great – and a real treat to see you back here. Don’t you listen to Suzi, those Cincinnati pants looked great :laugh:

I should have known that my request for little rhyming couplets that anyone could do would fall on deaf ears and the creative people here at TG would excel once again. But I guess it’s only fair that I should have a go – so here it is.





Lyric
It's not that I don't want to talk with you
It's just that I am not around
But I will surely call you later
If you leave your details at the sound

Yes, I wish I could have talked with you
But I could be working or asleep
Or eating cake* in Australia
So leave your message at the beep

Of course it may be I don't like you
And I'm sick and tired of your voice
You may be dull and irritating
And us not talking is my choice

You’re always looking for a favour
Because of you I’m on the booze
So I may just erase your message
And blame those Nobody’s Home Blues**

WOW!! Gosh you're a clever man Stu. I'm glad you didn't leave us hanging on the line for too long.

Great lyrics (cake haha, :) ), great sounds, very funny dead pan delivery, sweeeeeet playing. Fantastic all round.

Hit for six!

LOVED IT!

A little valentine to the people we all despise: telemarketers. Sung to the tune of Johnny Cash's Walk the Line.



I shut my phone off 'cause I don't give a damn.
You are the phone equivalent of spam.
You take my mind right back to Vietnam.
I do decline -- I cut the line.

I let it ring for telemarketers.
You won't believe how often it occurs.
I've called my congressman, and he concurs,
you've got no spine -- I cut the line.
I guess I know what I'll be singing for the rest of the day. ..... I cut the line. :) :) :)

WONDERFUL!!!! Cool way of flipping' the bird Den. B)

Love your green jacket too, all the cool kids are wearing them. ;)

My goodness … three new additions in what? – 4 hours? … This thread is going viral. Cool!

Kevin, Stuart and Dennis – All unique, well done, very imaginative and definitely in the spirit of this challenge.
You guys really stepped up to the plate when asked to. I’m impressed with your creativity and have been thoroughly entertained with your work. Thanks

Really?!? I s Daryl's bass challenge video, but I haven't see a phone message from him yet. I just checked and I can't see it. Willem if there is one would you mind reposting it. I must be being vague or something.
