a sort of folky pop protest song?

hypocrisy superrich

martin stirrup

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

Hvar is a beautiful island but there are far too many super yachts in the marina for my liking. And as for the partying clergy....

Lyrics

CH 16 Marina

                   A   C    DA
 You can take your yacht and stick it in your own marina 
                   A
I don't care what you got but
     C        B                              A     BD
I think my lifestyle takes yours to the cleaners  

E A Bb  BA          E
Sitting on the hillside gazing down through the pines
E        ABb  BA          E
Working on my chill side,                         feeling fine
A  Bbb5             A
Down on the quayside it's all noise and disharmony
EG                 E
Everyone is running round shouting look at me

All the priests and nuns are drinking beer and wine
They've got a new bishop so I guess its party time
Somehow it all seems to go against the grain
Wouldn't it be something if they lived up to Jesus' name

Living for the moment, not living for the show
Ostentatious wealth's not the way I want to go
You can blow your own trumpet, or try to out-Trump Trump
But your self- aggrandisement just gives me the hump.
