Every so often, you just have to write something silly! All comments and suggestions appreciated.

 

HEY CHUCK, CAN I BORROW YOUR TRUCK
(Words & Music by Gavin Sinclair)

Hey Chuck, can I borrow your truck?
I bought a big screen TV
Hey, is it cool if I swim in your pool
While you go and pick it up for me?

Hey Lance will you water my plants
I''m leaving for the beach today
And while you're doing that, feed my cat
And clean out his litter tray

It's all about being efficient
Avoiding duplication
Which leaves more time for fishing
And going on vacation

There ain't no point in having something somebody's already got
And there ain't no point in buying something somebody's already bought
Only a moron would go to the store on a day someone else is going
A labor saver neighbor, who'll do you a favor, now that's a guy worth knowing

Hey Brian, I got washing needs drying
And my dryer's on the blink
It seems a lot of bother to buy another
When you have one already, don't you think?
If I drop by, can I use your wi-fi
To make a FaceTime call
I want Larry to come over with his riding mower
My grass is getting really tall

It’s a treasure hard to measure
Or even comprehend
It’s one of life’s great pleasures
Helping out a friend

There ain't no point in having something somebody's already got
And there ain't no point in buying something somebody's already bought
Only a moron would go to the store on a day someone else is going
A labor saver neighbor, who'll do you a favor, now that's a guy worth knowing

Aw Chuck, now what the...careful
You'll drop my new TV
Brian it's not funny, see what he's done he's
Gone and dropped it on me

Aw come on Lance, these are brand new pants
Now they smell of pee and poop it
'll never wash out, now what's this all about?
You guys are just being stupid

What are you so mad for?
There’s no need to shout
No need to feel bad for
Helping a neighbor out

There ain't no point in having something somebody's already got
And there ain't no point in buying something somebody's already bought
Only a moron would go to the store on a day someone else is going
A labor saver neighbor, who'll do you a favor, now that's a guy worth knowing

I may or may not be an enigma

Gavin, a harmless bit of fun ? . . . well, added some levity to my day, the lyrics are great here, lots of clever rhymes . . . and the mix sounds pretty pro, just a great song and a great listen.

Wow . . . takes more than a month to get a 1st post approved here ? Not a Russian spammer or a Robot  . . . just a songwriter, and an appreciator of well written  songs. Anyways Gavin, they're telling me my second post has to be approved as well . . . just want to say again I enjoyed listening to your song, despite all this. Hope this actually gets through to you ?

Really sorry it took so long. That's not normally the case. It was an oversight when my host changed servers. I hate having to do this moderation thing, but to give you an idea, yesterday I had 17 Russian spammers sign up, and that wasn't a particularly busy day. Without the moderation thing, the forum would have been flooded with spam. Again, my apologies for letting this happen.

Thanks, popitup. Just a bit of nonsense, as a lot of my songs are. 🙂

Welcome aboard.
