IF YOU SEE KAY (A CHESSBERG)
Cyrus is a singer-songwriter from India who has been writing lyrics and music for over four decades.
Story behind the song
This one's a Sunday Cryptic.
I thoroughly enjoyed writing it, in a cerebral sort of way, building in the clues.
That said, I recognise that the "clues" may not make much sense to anyone other than myself and a very few others.
For that indulgence, I hope I will be forgiven...
Lyrics
IF YOU SEE KAY (A CHESSBERG)
Our Tukid has ridden a Chessberg away
On a grammical Aziph turned down-
Your Chessberg’s an iceberg, the Queen tried to say,
But iceberg’s a nice burg to hang round!
The King has turned blind, disappointment and spite,
The tip of the iceberg and money;
The Queen’s awake, worried about mating all knight
On a diet of bread without Honey
So, if you see Kay, if you see our Kay,
If you see our Tukay-Tukid,
Tell her the Queen has abandoned the scene
Of the Save-our-King-from-himself bid!
Our Tukid’s a King, playing limited moves
On a board dominated by nights-
The Queen has been beating out timid tattoos,
Unheard, since she’s lost all her rights…
So, the King takes his ice and the Queen takes her song
To their separate beds every night,
Each trying to say, oh, if you see Kay,
I’m really feeling all right!
I’m feeling all right,
The feeling’s all right,
The Queen is all right,
The Queen was I…
I’m feeling all right…
