    Check out
    more songs by Uni & her ukelele in Myspace

    I messaged this songwriter/ukelele player from San Francisco named Uni in myspace and she replied to me very kindly: "hiya pleased to meet U. I have seen your video, a friend sent it to me wondering if i knew about it, i didn't, and have to say, it's a very sexy video, i haven't written the words out to that song but when i have some free time, i will and send it to U, thanks for asking and thanks for including my song in your video, ding!"

    I had used her song "Metaly Of Unfinished Songs" from the youtube audio library (I had to change the original soundtrack), in one of my fan-videos dedicated to Emile Hirsch:



    This is one of my most viewed videos in youtube, I'm sure thanks to her nice song, it's very original and ironic and I thought it'd fit my visual montage well, the viewers think the same too, if you read the comments. A pretty raising number of people who have watched my video and liked this song have messaged me asking me for the lyrics, they have looked for in everywhere and me too, and we cannot find them, most of us are European and we don't understand all the English expressions that well, so I asked Uni for a transcription of "Metaly of Unfinished Songs" lyrics.

    UPDATE: AND she so solicitously wrote by her hands the lyrics and sent me the whole composition:

    Song "Metaly of unfinished songs" by Uni & her ukelele:
    from the album 'My Favorite Letter Is U' 2006

    Part one:

    "Let me down easy, I don't think my heart can take it
    But before I go, this one last time be a human blanket
    It's the middle of the night, and I can hear the winds a blowing
    Crickets signifying, their lullaby chorus's moaning
    And so am I
    Ohhhh...oh...oh.....oh?

    Let me down easy I never said I had to be your girlfriend!
    I just wanted to get close to U
    I am delivering my insecurities in person
    It's the middle of the night, and we are lying in your bed naked
    I'm trying not to cry, while U keep your heart protected
    And so do I
    Ohhhh...oh...oh.....oh

    Part two:

    Verse:

    Dear old friend of mine
    U look beat up!
    Your knuckles are bruised and they drag
    By the waste side

    Dear old friend of mine
    Something's missing
    I think it's your eyes?
    They don't sparkle like they used to

    Chorus:
    Let's just sit down
    I'll buy the first round
    It will never be this way again
    I'll never feel this way again

    It just takes time
    Buck up, you'll be fine
    And she said
    "Oh Love...it isn't meant for me"

    Verse

    Dear old friend of mine
    What-else is new?
    How many members you've got in your Rock N Roll Band?

    That's great! That's good for U!
    I've been there before
    People I keep drifting through
    But it's been along time since I've really kissed someone

    Chorus:
    Let's just sit down
    I'll buy the first round
    It will never be this way again
    I'll never feel this way again

    It just takes time
    Buck up, you'll be fine
    And I said
    "Oh Love...it isn't meant for me"

    Part Three

    Verse

    Sitting in your tower content
    You're the Woolly Bully Pirate King
    I wait for U
    Oh I wait for U

    Through a small window U see blue skies
    Those who are Dapper Dan
    While U get high
    I wait for U
    Oh I wait for U

    Chorus:

    Your cruel and callous sense of humor
    Adds a layer to your armor
    That's what U want
    U hold on to what you've got

    And stewing on the fact your princess is gone
    And burring your love won't bring your treasure home
    Ahoy she's coming back
    Your hearts still under attack

    Hahahahahaaa

    Verse

    I bow your majesty, I bite my tongue
    Do a jester's dance, sing wicked wenches songs
    I wait for U
    Oh I wait for U

    I touch your hand, share my dubloons and food
    But it don't stop, your shitty mood
    I wait for U
    Oh I wait for U

    Chorus:

    Your cruel and callous sense of humor
    Adds a layer to your armor
    That's what U want
    U hold on to what you've got

    And stewing on the fact your princess is gone
    And burring your love won't bring your treasure home
    Ahoy she's coming back
    Your hearts still under attack

    Part Four:

    Sick of writing these sad songs
    Sick of going to parties all alone
    When U can just give in
    And let your guard...down

    And I know I'm not that pretty
    But personality goes along way
    And I do my best to be honest
    Within every lie I say

    And I laugh at all your stupid jokes
    Until it hurts inside
    And I see more in U
    Then I have ever seen in mine

    I'm sick of being the weird one
    I just wanna be your loved one
    I just wanna be...........
    Happy".
