Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
This song just happens to fit the news... so the video was knocked up a little hastily so could be improved... It could just as easily apply to any misbehaving politician/ businessperson/ celebrity... just think of the miscreant of your choice!
Lyrics
Verse 1 E Someones been walkin where they shouldnt have stepped A Someones been sleepin where they shouldnt have slept E Someones been spending wildy running up debts F# G A E That time is over - nows the time they gotta own up Verse 2 Someones been taking but not paying their dues Someones been walking in another mans shoes Someones been sneaking without getting the blues That time is over - nows the time they gotta own up Chorus A (run) E Too many people chasing the dream A (run) E Money for nothing you know what I mean C B A# A Too many grasping for the cream of the crop F E D# D If theres a winner then there must be a flop A#A. B7 Maybe its time that all this madness has to stop (2nd: Thats why Im telling you that) Verse 3 Someones had more than their fair share of the cake Someones pretending that theres nothing at stake Too many getting on despite being fake That time is over - nows the time they gotta own up
