Rockin Crocks


There's a story behind this one. First, it's just a musical bed - no vocal and a quasi-lead piano.

The story:

My best friend owns the bowling alley in a nearby town. He asked me if I liked Elton John. I told him I liked him quite a bit. He told me Elton John was one of his favorites. He then asked me if I'd ever written a song in an Elton John style. I told him I had not. He challenged me to do so. he said he didn't want a sugary sweet song like Candle In The Wind or Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word. He said he wanted to hear something that would knock the lint out of his belly button as he listened. (He has way with words!) I told him I thought I could write the music to a song like he wanted, but there'd be no vocal - I can barely sing Mary Had A Little Lamb, let alone like Elton John. (But I do have a pretty decent cover of Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word). Anyway, this is what I came up with.

Whatcha Think?
