Hi, I've been writing songs since I was twelve years old, and recording them since 1985. Roger Cook (of the Cook-Greenaway-Cook songwriting partnership and Blue Mink, etc) once wrote that I have the ability to write a hit single and that he was waiting for one from me. He also said I need to 'lighten up a bit', unquote. F*ck that!

Story behind the song
The world is going mad and we need to slow down to rethink our priorities. Happiness should be goal of life, not acquisition. Period.
Lyrics
Hold on, you move too fast for me Hold on, please take the time to see Slow down if you want my company I'm sat here watching and waiting for you now We could live in a land of milk and honey But you're too busy in the world of making money You're too serious to see what should be funny And all too soon you'll have to learn to cry Hold on, this is insanity Hold on, we've lost reality Slow down, you worry constantly I'm sat here watching and waiting for you now I use my imagination to keep me well away I look and learn something new everyday Come round to see me and we'll outside to play Before too long we'll have no time to dream Dream... Hold on, you move too fast for me Hold on, please take the time to see Slow down if you want my company I'm sat here watching and waiting for you now We could live in a land of milk and honey But you're too busy in the world of making money You're too serious to see what should be funny And all too soon you'll have to learn to cry Hold on, this is insanity Hold on, we've lost reality Slow down, you worry constantly I'm sat here watching and waiting for you now I use my imagination to keep me well away I look and learn something new everyday Come round to see me and we'll outside to play Before too long we'll have no time to dream Hold on!
