The Best And Irresistible

After a very dark ballad, here is something completely different, super light reggae smile A friend suggested that after all my self-ironic and self-bashing songs, I should make a song called "I'm the best and irresistible" in reggae style, and it would bring forth my best qualities (or not exactly mine, but my songwriting character's, called Poop Dilan laugh ). And that's what I did, it was fun to construct the song with all those drums and loops, and then to try even some rapping. I would have liked to rap/sing with Jamaican accent but I hope that my Finnish accent is exotic enough smile

Lyrics:

I don't like to be the center of attention
I'm modest and frank, I hate pretension
You can't find me dancing in hot night clubs
more likely I'll be walking,
spotting birds in the scrubs.
I don't smoke, swear aloud or moan
I don't get drunk when I am alone
If you think I'm boring, then
that is your headache
I was born with this virtue,
it's not a mistake.

Every day I forget that
I'm the best and irresistible
every day I forget that
I am warm and sensible
every day please remind me
that my blue eyes are disarming
every day tell me my name is
Mister Charming.
Because if you don't
I'll be a wingless dove
who can't deliver your dreams
can't be the messenger of love.

I'm a hushed lagoon in a tender moonlight
giving the floor to the
warblers of midnight
I don't want to talk about
myself or my deeds
I would rather whisper in the
language of dreams.
I value wittiness, imagination
science, non-violence, negotiation.
I never bash you behind your back
I'm patient, forgiving,
I could never whack.

Every day...

Even though I'm frugal, doesn't mean no fun
I would never skimp for my dearest one
pleasure feels wasted when I feast on my own
only things that are shared are fruitfully sown.
Nature is my rescue, humor is my right
my world is pretty, not black and white
see how I'm full of love and laughter to give
always ready to prove, there's a reason to live.

Every day...

----
