I showed my daughter how to punch cue the mic with the foot pedal.
I then asked her to tell me the things she loves, and the things she hates.
She chose DoKashiteru’s xylophone extravaganza as the basis of her per-teen ramblings and I just let her go.
Her big brother then came in afterwards (after playing the riff from Smoke on the Water for the umpteenth time) to cut up and mixdown her freeform thoughts.
This is the result.
I purposely left the kids alone and didn’t listen until I posted it now.
Her thoughts are somewhat universal.
I’m still scared of the dark and don’t like vomiting either.
I’m not sure about kissing boys at parties on rollerskates though.
When she gets a bit older I’ll be the one waiting in the carpark at discos to pick her up and frightening the crap out of any potential boyfriends. LOL
Ive now posted the pella.

Here’s her stream of conscientious lyrics;

Things I love, things I hate

These are the things I love
These are the things I hate

I love dogs and cats
but I don’t like black
I hate houses with mouses

and trees with bees
because they sting my knees
as I climb up reaching for my favourite rainbow

I love Barbie
especially when she kisses Ken
I don’t like going to bed
I don’t like showoff boys
or being bored…

I love my Dad
I love my Mum
But I hate my annoying brother.

I’m scared off the dark
I hate scary shadows
My favourite colours are
pink, yellow and blue

I love disco dancing
but I hate boys that make noise
and I don’t like vomiting….

I hate runny ink
and cats that scratch
I love kissing boys at parties
on my roller skates

I love lunchtime at school
but I don’t like homework

I’m scared of the dark
but I love playing in the park

I love Santa Claus
and hot English mustard
but I hate chilli

I hate flies
but I love butterflies
(with teeth)

I love the beach
with sand in my feet

I hate headaches
I love yellow roses
I wish I had a pet unicorn
how I can tie him up on the back lawn

I don’t like cockroaches
I’m scared of heights
and dogs that bite

I love holidays
and my best friends;
Paige and Sophie Brown…

These are the things I love and hate.
