a great idea for a song and it came from a good friend who has a great imagination for song themes.......thanks again Paul. Anton and the Aston is a sad song about the unfortunate guy who is a rough sleeper. His life has been a torment and it doesn't seem to be improving. He read a sign in a shop doorway that guarantees one lucky 10 million pound winner every week. With this thought firmly fixed in his mind he falls off to sleep. A wonderful dream ensues....but then he is abruptly woken and brought back to reality. Anton and the Aston purred into Purebank His sunseeker calmly moored there with a full tank Fueled up and ready to ride the Indian Ocean Gear now engaged they yacht sets in motion The stunning Sofia steps up from down below Asks, Anton have you decided where we will go My lush and cozy island, just half an hour's cruising Then to relax, drink and swim with cuisine of your choosing Champaign and lobsters with freshly caught snapper French cheese perhaps with a fresh and fruity platter Anton doesn't want to wake up, facing reality Life on the streets, hunger, sheer brutality No home, no money no family now no friends A place where grief starts and charity ends He woke in a doorway to horns and loud noises Move on now, move on now shout out angry voices He opened his eyes then tried hard to recall Win ten million pounds says the sign on the wall But nothing is real here so who the hell's the winner What are the odds as chances grow much thinner His vision now in focus as people in the street Scurry quickly passed him and all he sees is feet Anton doesn't want to wake up, facing reality Life on the streets, hunger, sheer brutality No home, no money no family now no friends A place where grief starts and charity ends Out there on the street the place where grief and sorrow starts and understanding ends. **************************************************************** Now I'm no musician and you wouldn't really want to hear me singing but what I love doing is writing.
