Dan Lyons

Dan Lyons is a Margate based musician and songwriter. Through vivid imagery rarely seen in song, he can tell stories in earnest. Musical influences range from The Go Betweens to Radiohead all the way to Leonard Cohen and Serge Gainsbourg whilst his work remains something only Dan Lyons, with his unique worldview and experience could produce. ‘‘If music was scholarly then Dan would hail from that of Bob Dylan and Lou Reed. His lyrics are commanding, both piquant and hard-hitting. In another life, he’d find himself living amongst the Beatniks of New York’s Greenwich Village or living rent-free as a poet in Paris’ Shakespeare & Co.” - Clash Magazine

Change the words to a song you found
Somewhere that I don’t know about
I’ll do the same
It saves you coming round and keeps my name out your mouth 
I’ll take the blame

So carry on, carry on 
It won’t change you 
You’re wonderful and beautiful
It won’t phase you

You don’t like each other’s company 
But it’s all you’ve got 
It’s all you need

Change the notes in a riff you found 
Six feet beneath the underground 
And then teach the band 

It will help you figure out 
The brand new fresh sound 
That you dream about

So carry on, carry on 
It won’t change you 
You’re wonderful and beautiful
It won’t phase you

You don’t like each other’s company 
But it’s all you’ve got
It’s all you need

Change the words in a song you found 
Somewhere that I don’t know about 
I’ll do the same 
It saves you coming round and keeps my name out your mouth 
I’ll take the blame
