about

Making memories out of fleeting things.

RIP WG Marris 1952 - 1990

lyrics

Sunny day, skinny boy, go out and play
Get some sunburn on the lawn
Mother's gone, dad's never home
But big brother's here today

My family got torn and scattered
And I got left behind
Big brother went out drinking fighting
Far beyond the ties that bind

But we're all together now
Swinging on the swings
Laughing and singing a Beatles’ song
Making memories out of fleeting things

Then our family got moved around
Put together by glue and string
And I got a Disney stepmother
And her spoiled son replacing my big brother

By that time he'd begun to roam
And I never found out where
Hurting, angry, distant out there
No one here seemed to really care

But we're all together now
Swinging on the swings
Laughing and singing a Beatles’ song
Making memories out of fleeting things

I grew up, he fell down
Lost his wife, his kids, his home
Last time I saw him he was broken
Next thing I heard he'd gone

So if you're swinging sunny swings
Singing Beatles songs
The sun will set on that happy day
Don't let your sunburn memories fade away

But we're all together now
Swinging on the swings
Laughing and singing a Beatles’ song
Making memories out of fleeting things x2
