Carl Halling Poet Lyric

I Am a Demo Tape Maker

I am a demo tape 
Maker,
Compulsive Rock and Roll 
Faker,
It is my need,  I pay no heed,

To those who say 
I won't get anywhere,
I have trained myself not to care,
It makes my day less boring,
My future less worrying.

I keep writing the songs
About the rights and the wrongs,
In the vain hope
That someday somewhere
Among the reject slips, 

There might be someone
Who thinks I'm hip,
The last word,
Le dernier cri,
The new McCartney, no...

I know that 
It won't happen,
I know that I've got talent,
But I ain't got enough,
I guess that's tough.

I keep writing the songs
About the rights and the wrongs,
In the vain hope
That someday somewhere
Among the reject slips, 

There might be someone
Who thinks I'm hip,
The last word,
Le dernier cri,
The new McCartney, no...
