About my music: I work primarily in Garageband as my resources are limited. Though the recordings are not the expensive finished studio kind that everyone knows and loves, and I am still learning as I go along here on my journey, I humbly offer these up for your ears to try. My grand visions of symphonies, choirs and the release of 300 white doves in the sky at the end of each tune will have to wait a bit.
So for now, musical sketches. Please enjoy!
Your Loss
I have always loved Latin music. Like what was going on in the 1950’s in Havana, Cuba. Kirsty MacColl’s album “Topical Brainstorm” amazed me and left me envious. And I continue to feel that way every time I listen. A British red haired vixen making Latin tunes with some bite in the lyrics. It was an AMAZING album. Still is. This is my first humble attempt into that genre.

Your Loss
Lyrics and music: Carol Kroll © 2009
Verse 1:
Maybe out of fear
I came begging year after year
The crumbs you offered me
Weren’t enough you see
Chorus:
When that ship comes in
When I’m the underdog that’ll win
When I dig out of this hole I’m in
It’ll be your loss
It’ll be your loss
Verse 2:
I tried to make you see
How it could be
But you turned away
For once you had nothing to say
Chorus:
When that ship comes in
When I’m the underdog that’ll win
When I dig out of this hole I’m in
It’ll be your loss
It’ll be your loss
Verse 3:
And now you think I’m special
Proved my worth in precious metal
Now it’s all worth it to you
Now that I’ve got something on you
Now I’ve got you to turn your head
Now you want some of this bread
This little red hen made all on her own
Because she had to go it alone!
Chorus:
When that ship comes in
When I’m the underdog that’ll win
When I dig out of this hole I’m in
It’ll be your loss
It’‘ll be your loss
It’ll be your loss
It’ll be your loss
