A Merry Note | Lovely Little Losers

Hey fellas! If anyone ends up watching this...

MERRY CHRISTMAS and seasons greetings and all that jazz. Whatever floats your boat ;)

Filmed this the other day with Balthazar Jones (if you don’t know him check out his music on ‘WatchProjects’ he’s fantastic and the world should know about him) Don’t judge me on the singing- I’m not the pro, he is. But yeah, I might try and get more of Balth’s songs up in the new year? Everyone needs more Balthazar. No promises though haha

Shout out to The Dick, aka Benedick Hobbes, who forcibly set this channel up for me awhile back. Thanks mate, I guess I’ve actually put it to good use.

Anyway, catch you all later

And Balth’s provided the song lyrics

‘A MERRY NOTE’

VERSE ONE
When icicles hang by the wall
And Dick the shepherd blows his nail
And Tom bears logs into the hall
And milk comes frozen home in pail,
When blood is nipp'd and ways be foul,
Then nightly sings the staring owl;
Tu-whit, tu-who,
Tu-whit, tu-who,
Tu-whit, tu-who, a merry note,
While greasy Joan doth keel the pot

VERSE TWO
When all aloud the wind doth blow
And coughing drowns the parson's saw
And birds sit brooding in the snow
And Marian's nose looks red and raw,
When roasted crabs hiss in the bowl,
Then nightly sings the staring owl;
Tu-whit, tu-who,
Tu-whit, tu-who,
Tu-whit, tu-who, a merry note,

While greasy Joan doth keel the pot

BRIDGE
Ooooh, oooooh, ooooh,
Ooooh, oooooh, ooooh,
Ooooh, oooooh, ooooh,
Ooooh, oooooh, ooooh,

VERSE THREE
When daisies pied and violets blue
And lady-smocks all silver-white
And cuckoo-buds of yellow hue
Do paint the meadows with delight,
The cuckoo then, on every tree,
Mocks married men, for thus sings he;
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo,
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo,
Cuckoo, cuckoo; O word of fear,
Unpleasing to a married ear

VERSE FOUR
When shepherds pipe on oaten straws
And merry larks are ploughmen's clocks,
When turtles tread, and rooks, and daws,
And maidens bleach their summer smocks
The cuckoo then, on every tree,
Mocks married men, for thus sings he,
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo,
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo,
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo,
Cuckoo
