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...

You don’t need them let them slide Verse 3: Pattern B Papal blessing or just a gypsy curse Either way it’s all the same, I won’t tell you which is worse I’ll be the doctor, you can be the nurse In the psychiatrist’s chair, psycho babble psycho verse chorus Let them slide.... let them slide Let them slide....[ You don’t need them let them slide Verse4 Pattern A I’m resigned to be discreet to let you have your say You’re out of time but still on your feet you nearly made my day Hold on to the memory hold on to the dreams Not a time for prophecy nothing’s what it seems chorus Don’t let them slide.... don’t let them slide Don’t let them slide Hold your dreams now you don’t let them slide Repeat last line Hold your dreams now you don’t let them slide
