Seaside Sunday

from Lyrics by Thursday's Child

lyrics

Seaside Sunday
Ken Punshon & Chris Pyam (2020)


Seaside town, on Sunday morning Cafe's open, people stir
Bacon butties and strong coffee Help to clear their tongues of fur

Last night's revels, near forgotten Partners, friends, were wronged and lost
Arguments, disputes, remembered Now's the time to count the cost

Leaden skies dank and dismal Misty rain is in the air
Broken waves are sliding backwards Newspapers blow round the square

Derelict and dreary pier with Slot machines and penny arcade
Gulls are swooping, stealing snippets Think about mistakes we made

Near the sea a stranded sofa Used syringes laying there
Residents are far from happy Walk to church and offer prayer

Clocktower sounds ten o'clock Supermarket opening doors
Many people now are leaving Moving onward, from these shores
Moving onward, from these shores
Moving onward, from these shores...

about

Thursday's Child UK

Thursday's Child was born on a Monday (August Bank Holiday 2009)!

Chris Pyam and Ken Punshon got together to try out a couple of ideas for songs. That afternoon they created about eight songs; since then over 100 more have emerged, with a few more 'bubbling away'.

Heather Dunn joined us in Nov 13 to contribute additional harmonies during the creation of our third album (Carry My Thoughts).
