1.	Wired Up Right 01:44	lyrics	buy track
Got a dodgy connection Mind glitch piercing pitch I need surge protection I need an off switch Got a dodgy connection Between myself and everything else Quick! Before the circuit melts And I gotta make certain That my head is screwed on tight And all the wires are wired up right Time for reflection Funhouse mirror reflection Sometimes it's for the best To just have a little rest Sparks are flying High volt lightning bolt Components frying Shock jolt electrical fault Solder smoulders Static bites flashing lights Thoughts short Make sure all the wires are wired up right Wired up right Wired up right Yeah right This'll just have to do
2.	Not Dissociated 02:13	lyrics	buy track
I'm not dissociated I am otherwise associated Drifting away in a daydream Lost in a moment Lost in a moment far from the here and now Hiding in a little side room off reality Beat a quiet retreat into numb stillness Still numbness Quelling rising anxiety with a wash of somewhere else Someone else Away with the fairies On another planet The lights are on but no one's home Caught up in patterns Spaced out Zoned out Trippy I'm not dissociated I am otherwise associated Floating away from the weight of the world Resting face: gormless Looking vacant but really Otherwise engaged
3.	Options 02:01	lyrics	buy track
It's an epic adventure You don't know what you'll find Roads branch out in front of you How do you make up your mind? Uncertain future Carve the path you choose Find a job that'll suit you? You've got everything and nothing to lose How you gonna know? How you gonna see? Where you wanna go Who you wanna be You wish you knew You wish you saw What you wanna do As you open up the door Overwhelming choices Decisions in the dark You don't know what your voice is Your flame is still a spark So much stress So much pressure It will all come together Whatever your endeavour How you gonna know? How you gonna see? Where you wanna go Who you wanna be You wish you knew You wish you saw What you wanna do As you open up the door
4.	Strange Ghosts 02:42	lyrics	buy track
Standing in the empty theatre Full of strange ghosts Who foreshadow future faces Transfixed engrossed The crew is here now Setting up the scene All hands to the job A greasepaint oiled machine Air sizzling Yet all in our stride Practical Keep it cool But inside - We can taste it That buzz of a vision realised Soon to be seen by so many eyes Moving through a pregnant atmosphere That's about to burst into life All for the love of entertainment Exercising excitement containment A balance of distance and feeling it A dance of pretense and meaning it An abstract theatrical contract Between practitioner and devotee Is about to be entered into For an emotional jamboree Last minute preparation To make the illusion complete Electric expectation Of a beautiful deceit The strange ghosts will be real soon No more empty seats Butterflies? It's a butterfly rodeo! But we know All part of the show Steady now

Wobbie Wobbit London, UK

Convivial humour and unique songs
From Haringey in North London. I take part in online song writing challenges fawm.org and fiftyninety.fawmers.org where most of my songs are written.
Most of my songs have at least a gentle humour, and those that don't I hope are just as warm. ... more
