Just a little twaddle of a song. It's cute. I got the rhythmic idea of the phrase 'no charge', thinking of all the cool things that are free in life. I wanted a different feel for the list of things that can be the little joys of life, so I decided to try it in a rap style.
It's sort of the flip side, in a way, to my song, In Front Of Me. That's a song from a darker, more serious place where there's a lot of ambivalence and emotional complexity. And only one person has commented on it! :-)
This one is clearly more simple and sunny. I hope you enjoy it.
A smile your way
Yeah, I'll come to play
I'll sing a song
Could be short or long
I'll give you a kiss
And throw it like this
And make you feel like you belong
Chorus:
I render gestures small and large
No charge. No charge.
My kindness in kind, that's no mirage.
No charge. No charge.
I'll bring the ball
No trouble at all
You won't have to fish
Just think of a wish
Don't bother to mart
'Cause I'll bring the art
And it'll all be in a succulent dish
If you really wanna
We can go to a sauna
Let's go out to pasture
I'll help you get there much faster
It will be a big winner
Getting out of this winter
And then YOU can be the ambassador!

What a great title and concept for a song, the lyrics are excellent and I love the bouncy energy of the piano groove.

Great to branch out to a different approach. Embracing the FAWM ethos. The piano really works for this one.

I really enjoyed the piano backing on this. It almost feels like it could be theme tune to a TV show. A fun listen.
