about

This is all about the view from Carl Schurz Park across the East River to Roosevelt Island.

lyrics

hand me that gingham table cloth
hand me that folding table too
I've got the napkins and cutlery in my overcoat
salt and pepper packets in my shoe

I'm going to that building
river building
climbing up to the top
I'm going up onto of that building
building
I may never stop

they're turning Domino sugar into housing
so as they tear at the guts from here
I'll sit on top and have some cheese and wine
bid the old farewell my dear

I can see a lot from this building
river building
smoke stacks and the chimney tops
I'm up on the roof of that building
building
perspective it can mean a lot.

Vincent's ashes scatted with his favourite hat
there are probably worse ways to go
but as I sit up here and realise that
the east river puts on a tug boat show

they wave as they pass this building
river building
I'd give it all for just one more go round
I've got to the top of the building
building
I catch my breath before it makes a sound

Songwriting and banging your instruments together

The main thing I love to do is write songs. I pick up various instruments from ukulele to piano, accordion to percussion and electric guitar to harmonica and bang them about to try and get close to the noises I hear in my head but the writing comes first. ... more
