Is it possible to love an object?
Ode To My Fylde Guitar
Thar a little lump o wood that keeps mi sane
I praise the very chisel and the plane
That shaped thi inta what thy are today
An incredible, wonderful, marvellous , sensuous
Instrument to play
Well I don’t think I’ve put thi down this aft
Cause I really do appreciate the craft
That sculpted all thi splendid womanly curves
Thar about the only thing that doesn’t get on mi nerves
When I first saw thee int workshop show room
There and then I fell in love
I could tell thas bin med wi tender lovin care
An when I pick thi up behold tha fit mi like a glove
And tha produce tha sweetest heavenly sound
Mankind has ever heard
Cause thar a product of fylde craftsmanship and skill
I’d really love to kiss thi and I promise thi I will
I only need pluck one o thi strings and tha does mi good
That’s why I feel thar more than just an ordinary lump o wood
Yes that very same lump o wood that keeps mi sane
Thas got the spirit of the forest and its running through thi grain
I don’t think that there’s anythin left to say
Except I must salute thi cause I think thar absolutely the only thing that brightens up mi day
And fylde guitar I’ll promise thi this tht fylde guitar
I’ll gi thi a kiss cause I don’t think I’ve given thi one since yesterday
So I suppose I’d better get on with it anyway
Cause fylde guitar thar simply bliss ( kiss guitar ) to pla – a - y
Oooo I’ve de fylde thi
