The FCP GROUP is a band of composers. We are all writers, some perform, all have performed professionally in the past.
FCP is not so much a band in the "performing" musical sense........more like a "band" of various talents in the songwriting arena.

Lyrics
"MISS PENNY" (1st verse) Miss Penny stays busy all night slinging slop Waiting on tables at the local truck stop And when her shift ends she'll be slinging a mop Dancing it 'cross the floor with a skip and a hop She sings (1st chorus) One day I will be a big movie star I'll cruise down Ro-de-o in a stretch limo car I'll walk the red carpet I'll say all the right things You can let go of everything else but HOLD ON TO YOUR DREAMS (2nd verse) Before the sun rises she pulls on her coat The money she earns barely keeps her afloat But still she goes on cause she knows in her soul It's all an illusion and she's playing a role She sings (2nd chorus) One day I will be a big movie star I'll spend all my winters on Caribbean shores I'll sign autographs and live beyond my means You can let go of everything else but HOLD ON TO YOUR DREAMS (3rd verse-partial-slip to butter) While walking home her eyes turn to the stars She never notices the oncoming car She stepped from the curb into the ICU ward (butter bridge) And a nurse making rounds swore she heard sounds Went to Miss Penny's bed and slowly leaned down Miss Penny was softly singing (3rd chorus-gentle vocals with soft emotion) See I told you I'd be a big movie star Now I'm cruising Ro-de-o in a stretch limo car I'm on that red carpet saying all the right things You can let go of everything else but HOLD ON TO YOUR DREAMS Copyright 2006 barney lee bowden/mark robert lightcap
