Liner Notes

#skirmish #acousticonetake #singersongwriter #funny This was a fun skirmish. I am a bit of an absurdist and enjoy unusual Skirmish prompts!

Lyrics

This is your Captain Speaking (Skirmish)

[C - G] We were on a plane to Barbados, when some magic happened [C - G] An unexpected opportunity [C - G] I was reading the pamphlet on how to put on my seat belt [C - G] When heard the announcement from the speaker in row 3

This is your captain speaking, Would you like to buy the worlds best chocolate Raising money for women’s pants, we’re going to add some pockets They’re only 3 bucks each, you can take them to the beach We’re landing soon, so don’t forget….. to buy some chocolate

[C - G] We will be on the ground soon. But the landing will be sweeter [C - G] Due to my unexpected opportunity [C - G] I will leave the plane with a box, of the worlds finest chocs [C - G] Because of the fine announcement, from the speaker in row 3

Great take on the prompt. Thanks for taking part

Cheapo Airlines are dreadful for soliciting passengers to buy all kinds of crap. Oh for those days when food and baggage was included and the Captain only ever came on to inform passengers of something vital or useful.

Absurdity apart, I can imagine some once famous country singer who blew all his dough up his nose lowering himself to do an advert like this. How the mighty fall when cash is at issue!

I had a nice chuckle over this haha, raising money to add pockets to women's pants?! Even hundreds of metres above the earth, you can't get away from soliciting....

Fun and silly idea here, and truly unlikely. Excellent skirmish!

@kiraly 5d

Haha incredible, I would absolutely buy this - it's the world's best chocolate AND it's raising money for pockets in women's pants? Sign me up! The sort of melancholy/contemplative tune you chose to go along with it really works for the prompt too, this is not how chocolate ads usually go. Love it!
