Acoustic rock. Folk rock - I'm guessing!!!

Acoustic, Alternative, Blues and Rock
I had my first 4 track cassette recorder when I was 16 and I've still got most of the recordings, but you won't find those here! Some funny, some stupid, some ok bits, lots of rubbish! 30 years later I'm still writing and recording my own stuff - drum machine, bass, guitars and keyboards - (which I'm learning). Soundclick is breathing a bit of new life into my music - it's giving me an outlet, a meeting space, a place of inspiration. I hope that in the coming year, there will be some collaborations and swapping of music, thoughts and ideas. I do seem, however, to be spending an awful lot of time at this computer.........

Story behind the song
It's about me. But don't take this seriously, I'm taking the piss out of myself!
Lyrics
Somebody said I was Riff Driven But my sheep do not agree They stand before me mastercating (chewing!!) Dropping their little black pellets in front of me I do not fear armegeddon I'm not concerned with asteroids A plague of locusts won't deter me But I am lost without my toys I will blind you with my logic Leave you hypnotised I'll astound you with my insight You'll be gobsmacked, mesmerized There was a rumor I was self centered I was the head of my own government It's not true, I was duly elected If only by a majority of one Don't laugh, it's a heavy burden With great power comes great responsibility You see long way from this high up And all my jokes are free I am the master of illusion You'll look at me and gasp in awe Watch my fingers fly across the fretboard Damn, my fingertips are sore I must protect my little pinkies From the torment of this world From the nickel plated silver wound strings of satan And the moral of this story Is completely lost on me Ask me not what I am thinking Or is this where I'm suppose to be I should be weaving you a story Keep you spellbound, mystified Not drowning in my drivel of this wretched worthless tale
