GUEST,leeneia Lyr Req: Don't Play Me Your Concertina (Les Barker (43) RE: Lyrics for Don't Play Me Your Concertina 26 Jun 15


Don't do it, 4ADiva. This song is snide, almost too cruel. The rhymes are clever, but the sentiment is crass and money-based. (i.e, folk music doesn't make the big bucks like pop and rock, so folk musicians are here to be ridiculed.)

Do you really think that your concertina friends will be amused by:

"But will you promise, too,
that not one single note
is henceforth heard from you?"

Do you play or sing yourself? How would you feel if somebody told you never to make another note of music?
