Artist: De Artsen
Song: 10 grains (from their album "Conny waves with a shell"
Use standard tuning, bit of reverb, perhaps some chorus. I used the text
just like it appeared in the CD book, although not always correct ?! De
Artsen
were the predecessors of Bettie Serveert, a well known ducth band.
INTRO
VERSE
Dear minister of photography, would you please explain
How come she ll find oranges in your apple tree down memorylane
She looks somewhat familiar in her apron and her hat, like no one ever
sung
This quotation is such to interpret, guess you re the only one
CHORUS 1
She said ten grains is enough for you
When sirenes getting hold of you
VERSE
Now I come to think of, what she really meant
Anyway don t get so wet about this lookalike lament
And I surely wanna take her, ofcourse I wanna take her,
where she s never been
Where pressure people shrink, or just afraid to go to,
somewhere inbetween
CHORUS 2
But she said ten grains is enough for you
When sirens getting hold of you
Apprehension, I had to dig it ten feet underground
Final, I still love you somehow
VERSE 3
Well the ancient apecall, sense of gloom showing on my screen
Stop this nonsense, stop this nonsense,
don t get fooled by the pityqueen.
Blister on my soul, well that sounds nice, pathetic poem to my girl
Boy, you still haven t grown up, see you dazzling in this women s world
