BLUNDER TOWN 1
It's been a while but here's something that needs ears & suggestions.
I sketched this out last year and Steve "Louisiana Steve" Hutter reworked the lyrics as well as melody and played the lead parts PLUS mix and arrangement planning.
BIAB provides the drums and organ.
Steve does voices & lead guitar
I hack away at the rest.
Lyrics

Blunder Town
Hutter/cochrane

V1
This town, my town
At sundown, turns so brown
I smile & you frown
But let's not tear it down
Working & living
We're talking, we're giving
& walking, driving,
Somehow surviving
C1
Something calls, I can't hear
It calls from far, it calls from near
Not quite home
Not quite here.
But I can hear
Something near
Life in Blundertown.
V2
This place, our place
This case, is our space
You think while I pace
We're bot in a rat race
Working & living
& taking, believing
Running & diving,
Still just surviving
C2
Something calls, I can't hear
It calls from far, it calls from near
Not yet home
I start to fear.
'cos I can hear
Somewhere near
That life in Blundertown.
V3
Living, dying
Consuming, buying
Faking & trying
To look like we're making do
Working & slaving
Then seeing & craving
Always behaving like
We've all been trained to.
C3
Something calls, I don't hear
It calls out loud, it calls quite near
Almost home, you can feel my fear.
In a different gear
Someone's near
That's life in Blundertown.
C4
Something calls, all along
It calls out loud, it's sounding wrong
Not quite home, feel me drown.
It's a different tread
Someone bled
Life in Blundertown.


Cheers
