A boy from the council estate got to the top of the corporate tree. My gosh it wasn’t for me!
Suggestion by Mark Austin at the Your Stories In Song event at Little Arts Festival 24. The audience helped Milton Hide to write a quick blues number based on Mark’s words:
Just a boy from the estate
that was my fate
that was my fate
I’m a bit rough
It was tough
But it’s never too late
for making good
Am I good enough
To get to the top?
I’m I good enough
To get to the top?
Of the corporate tree
But it wasn’t for me
No, it wasn’t for me!
