Got this from a great unknown songwriter the other night - let me know if you wan't the mp3 of it - by sending your e-mail to my Private Message


(To the tune of ?I Don?t Know How to Love Him?)


I don?t know how to write songs

But I know how to steal them

I passed the test

I steal the best

If you keep to the rules

It?s so easy to fool

In oh so many ways


Some of my melodies are lovely

This one?s a Mendelsonh concerto

Let me explain

Public domain

Means that I stay ahead

Cos? the writers have been dead

For oh so many years

I?m in the clear


Can they stop me, No

Do they want to, No

All they want to know

is the secret

How can they share the action with me ?

That?s what it?s all about

Now women all adore me

Though I look like a ferret


What if my face

May lack in grace

When they see the amount

In my bank account

They always want to call

Yes, size is all


All you really need

Is a taste for greed

Then you?ll find you?re freed from such things as

artistic skill and integrity

That?s what it?s all about




I never feel I oughta

Write my own songs like Cole Porter

It?s such a strain

Why rack my brain

When I can pull down a score

Find so many more

That no one can recall

I?ll have them all


(To the tune of Don?t Cry For Me Argentina)


Don?t patronise me, musicians

The truth is I hardly need you

You?re paid for sessions

I make my millions

During recessions

I make my millions


So don?t waste your breath

There?s absolutely nothing you can do

For every single word I?ve said tonight is true

    • There is a large amount fresh veg available in the green book cage outside the copleston church,sprouts,spring onions,potatoes,parsnips and bread rolls,pop down shame to see it get wasted          
    • On the original topic - there was more of this on Whateley Road today. Same place but the other side of the road. Could be the same dogwalker as for the other nearby roads?   I don't have a dog - but would have thought it's hard for owners not to notice when a dog is doing it in the middle of a pavement? 
    • Thought I’d take a trip down to Rye Lane this morning to visit the charity shops etc. I usually park in the Morrisons car park and buy stuff there and then the nearby shops. I know there are a few shops near the Aylesham centre that are having to close (Boots the chemist was a shoplifters favourite over the years) but I was shocked to see the extent of shop closures, graffiti, overall decline in the area.  Sometimes I get the bus and wanted to visit the Crises charity shop but it didn’t open until 10.30am and it had a coffee place inside. They have a shop in Rye Lane but are missing out on early rising customers. Walking down towards Santendar and the Primark store was very empty.Just hope that isn’t due for closure. The security guards are very nonchalant. The Scope charity shop has a prime position but doesn’t promote the shop Greggs have done away with their self service due to the number of thefts of food items.  The Poundland was quite empty too but I visit this one as they have stock since the Camberwell one closed down.         
    • Maybe I'm behind the times, but in the old days if you went to a pub for charity fundraiser you'd have a quiz or karaoke and you'd be chipping in for a new scanner at your local hospital or maybe sending some poor kiddie for some cancer treatment abroad. Nowadays you can roll down to the Old Nun's head in Nunhead and tip your money into a bucket for some sad young woman to go a private surgeon and have her breasts sliced off -  as if that was going to be some kind of life-saving treatment!  Not only that, she's publicising her Valentine's crowdfunder with a funny ha ha (not) cartoon of a girl (see pic) with a hypodermic in her bum and calling it 'Valen-Tits-off'. Jesus wept. Whatever happened to hearts and flowers? It's so unbelievably sick. I'm a woman, I've pretty much still got all the woman-bits intact. Periods and puberty weren't much fun, I was bullied at school, wondered about my sexuality and boys and spots and the rest of it, got called a lezzer by the class cow, but I got through it. And I would no more think that cutting bits off a girl was the solution to her misery than I would put my teenage daughter on a diet if she was diagnosed with anorexia. I can't be the only person who finds the pub - and its publicity material - very VERY offensive?
