warning overconfidence rashness hotheaded
Artist picture
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...

A warning about the dangers of overconfidence and rash action!
Lyrics
CH 03 Think DC AmGF D DC AmF C CrunG F C CrunD You're high as a mountain There's steel in your soul Ready and countingTo head for your goal But before you rush forward let me tip you the wink There's no time like the present to sit up and think DmAmGBm A DmAm C G There's danger when you let blood rush to your head You know that there are words that are better left unsaid It's a slippery slope you know when tolerance has fled Sliding to the abyss You know things can happen that can tear you apart Keep that candle of hope burning right from the start Don't let injustice eat into your heart You know you are better than this You're high as a mountain There's steel in your soul Ready and counting To head for your goal But before you rush forward let me tip you the wink There's no time like the present to sit up and think You think you're on a winner, you think you've got it made But you can lose control when logic starts to fade You need a touch of wisdom to temper the blade Don't go over the top You want the future to bend to your will But be aware of the risk of overkill For all your fire the greatest skill is Knowing when to stop ?
