FAWM: "Spring Bank"

Spring Bank

Liner Notes

Day 10 - Late Spring Bank Holiday

I realised about two days ago, I didn't really have anything to say about the late Spring Bank Holiday, but my concept meant I had to write one. Struggled for a bit, then did my usual strim-it-back-to-the-point-of-meaninglessness approach :) Catchy chorus, though ( if I do so say so myself).

This is not #folk; weirdly my computer just threw that tag in single-handedly. I'll take it as a sign!

Lyrics

Nothing to say ‘bout Spring Bank Holiday Except I would say that it’s a stupid name Wouldn’t say May’s The arse end of Spring - What is the point of this stupid thing?

Late Spring Bank Holiday, You are a total waste of space; But please don’t take my day away

And why did we get Two days in may then Nothing ‘til August? Seems top-heavy! Spread out the free Days - a reasonable display of magnanimity - give it a rest already!

Late Spring Bank Holiday, You are a total waste of space; But please don’t take my day away

Quick examination Of everything that’s Google Shows that it stems from The Banking and Financial Dealings Act of Nineteen Seventy One The evidence of fun is largely circumstantial

Of course, it is celebrating Bloody banks again. Why do they Get all the love that's going free?

Late Spring Bank Holiday You are a total waste of space But please don’t take my day away From me

I was only able to laugh when I realized you still wanted to keep the holiday (just do away with the silly name). I thought "please dont invite our capitalist overlords to take away our holiday!" - Ok I went off track. I liked the google diversion - the whole thing was a romp through language and strange instrumentation - well done!

This is so fun (largely circumstantial)! I love the synths and that guitar(??) tone is so good. Really awesome lyrics and perfect delivery! You've convinced me to join your campaign :D

@johnnycashpoint 4d

Thank you! Completely agree obviously 😄 though its not a guitar its a semi acoustic ukulele through an amp sim! #ukepride
