(Broadcast on the BBC Symonds on Sunday programme on 9th February 1969.) SHATTERING LIFE EXPERIENCE (Simon Nicol) Evening's dawning, missed the morning, Slept the afternoon. Half the day's gone, still I laze on, Got no silver spoon. But there's someone out there somewhere, Some girl with my other side. She won't know me, but she'll show me How to treat another heart. Life is bedlam if you let them Kick and put you down. They will race you, beat, disgrace you, Push your face into the ground. But you can get out of there somehow, She will show you how it's done. She's no lady, but she made me Feel that I need a crown. I'll repay her and convey her my realities. She'll respond with, condescend with trivialities. For she doesn't have to think of For too long to read my mind. She's a winner, no beginner, She's a friend of mine. #################################### The following information was with the lyrics: Type:Live Artists:Fairport Convention Lyrics:Simon Nicol Music:Simon Nicol Released:01 September 1987 (USA) Recorded: 4th February 1969 BBC, London Length:3:16 Label:Universal Island Records Ltd.
