Story behind the song
we had to have a theme tune didn't we, greeny sent out the main track, mike added bass and keys, jim added lyrics/lead vocals and pilot voice, and greeny added backing vox, the individual tracks when lined up back to back could have traversed the world and back. there is a lot going on. all done on 3 seperate boss micro brs.
Lyrics
It’s jemima’s kite
I tied jemima’s kite
To my bicycle
We’re gonna send it
Soaring through the clouds
I checked the tyres
I oiled the chain
Removed the dynamo
Gonna push it up to the brow of the hill
Okay let’s go
Start the countdown now
O o o it’s jemima’s kite
Flying so high
Across the sky
O o o it’s jemima’s kite
See it fly
Way on high
I’ve got my gloves
I’ve got my scarf
I’ve got my lucky rabbit’s foot
Better put my helmet on just in case
No turning back
Although I’m scared
I’m really going through with it
Ready boys……………….. it’s chocs away
Okay let’s go
Start the countdown now
O o o it’s jemima’s kite
Flying so high
Across the sky
O o o it’s jemima’s kite
See it fly
Way on high
Pilot “Houston control. This is tango delta 34105
I have a bogey at 3 o’clock.
Unidentified flying object, diamond shaped flying erraticly over!”
O o o it’s jemima’s kite
Flying so high
Across the sky
O o o it’s jemima’s kite
See it fly
Way on high
O o o it’s jemima’s kite
See it fly
Way on high
