about

Channeling the vocal jazz we've bonded over. Max played flute!

lyrics

If ever you’re feeling low
If ever you need a pal
My mother’s mother delights like no other
The loverly miss granny Val

Sometimes the world is dark
Bringing down your morale
If you’re feeling drab you should go for a gab to
The fabulous granny Val

Such a fine day to be charming
As the woes of the world lose their sting
So do be a mensch, fetch one more gin and French
After all a bird won’t fly on one wing

If you want a seaside stroll
Then go to the sea we shall
The world is a funland, just me and the sun and
The one and only granny Val

Such a fine day to be disarming
There’s no problem we cannot surmount
Make good use of your youth top that up with vermouth
Don’t you know that it is vulgar to count

Hopefully soon we’ll go
To walk in some grand locale
We fear no blunder, my cares torn asunder,
By wonderful granny Val

So leave the furore, and go hear a story,
From glorious miss granny Val
