Fits and Starts

This was one of two songs I wrote on the occasion of buying a new mixing desk. Here's the other one.

TTTO "Joshua fit de battle ob Jericho"


Chorus:

Bennett fit de mixer in his studio,
Studio, studio,
Bennett fit de mixer in his studio,
An' de walls come tumblin' down!

You may talk about yo' synths and yo' Mellotron,
You may talk about yo' breath control;
But there's none like a good ol' mixing board
At the battle to mix the whole.

Chorus

Now de loud sound came t'rough channel four,
And de peak LED did glow;
But Bennett jus' a'justed de input gain
And de music begin to flow.

Chorus

De lamb ram sheep horns begin to blow
And de trumpets begin to sound,
But Bennett commanded de racket to STOP
Wi' de mute buttons he pressed down!
