At 8… through the pearly gate

Chorus
Reincarnation celebration
Coming to a lifetime in you
Reincarnation celebration

Collapse Lapse

Just saw another collapse
Not sure if real’s surreal
A compassionary lapse
What does it take to feel

Until…

Writing the Song “Thawed Just Ice”

LYRICS
When the doom starts to loom
Go toward the omnipresent light
When storm troopers goon
Got to stick up for what is right

What is “just” must come true
True the alignment is meant

When you feel down on your luck
When you are persecuted
It’s time to give a F&%#!
Risking being executed

What is “just” must come true
True the alignment is meant

LYRICS
Sooner or later
Ya know the water
Will wash it all away
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe today
That water washes away

Do you understand how the Canyon got Grand
Can you command land
Or oversee the sea?

Chorus

Can you comprehend how the ark got afloat
Can your boat cross the mote
Ya know… across Styx to the rainbow?

Chorus

Bliss And Vigor

By admin | Published: June 6, 2013

LYRICS
If you want to see the vigor in me
Step a little closer and see what you see
If you want to see victory in “we”
Get off your high horse… come down from your tree

Chorus
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you
And, I really wonder what you’re up to
There use to be a place we could meet
Any more, I’m not sure if there’s a seat

If you want to see the real me
Take a closer look — intimacy
If you want to see the victorious us
Head right on course… get in focus

Chorus

From the womb to the tomb
Gonna live it the fullest… that I am!
From the bomb to the boom
Gonna let my soul, self, spirit scream

Inflight Insight

By admin | Published: June 5, 2013

LYRICS
Despite what you might have thought was insight
The consensus — might doesn’t make right
Try as you may… try as you might
In the end, it’s you that you slight

Chorus
In everything that you do
Try to pull through
’till the skies are blue
You can always depend on me to pull through
… can I depend on you?

In spite of the nose on your face
The mucus — blight clogging your sight
Cut it off so you can deface
Come on… don’t try to swallow more than you can bite

Chorus

So, you cut of your nose to spite your face
Why not cut off your ear… ya know… Van Gogh?
So, you put off your mate to curse your fate
Crawl into the light out of your dark space

Chorus

Brain Damage

By admin | Published: June 5, 2013

LYRICS
What do you think happened to your brain
To make you behave so strange
Is it in your genes… you’re mean… you strain
Turned into nails on the blackboard… people cringe

Is there hope you can be saved
Before you reach your grave
Is there a chance you’re less enraged
Relief from how you behave?

Chorus

What do you think happened to your heart
When it comes to unconditional love… you forgot
Over time your goodness did depart
Then, you left those you love to rot

Chorus

LYRICS
Happy emancipation to you
Gonna make a proclamation or two
Justification avenue
Coming to a city within view

Always too early to begin
Telling lies, hatred and sin
It’s never too late to begin
Feeling young inside again

It’s always too early to begin
Stealin’, robbin’, rapin’ and hatin’
It’s never too late to begin
Beloving the living of lovin’

Unnatural Selection

By admin | Published: June 4, 2013

LYRICS
Funny how one thing leads to another
Before you know it… it’s a chain reaction
Honey draws the flies more than vinegar
Suppose the choice lies in your selection

Chorus
Do you wonder how the other half lives
You might be surprised how much they give
Do you wonder, “What is my purpose?”
Is it more tan to be you, 2, 3, 4… for all of us

Sunny one minute cloudy the next
Before you know it… it’s a climate action
Money draws the lies out of context
Impose their will as some sort-of fiction

Chorus

Bunny goes from hunted to hunter
Who’s gonna die… who’s gonna live
The problem is not that perplexed
We will cause our own extinction

Chorus

LYRICS
Off the frying pan and into the fire
(Transpire)
Ouch!

Mary had a little lamb and tied it to a heater
Every time it turned around
It burned it’s little seater

Sitting on a hot plate
Sitting on the stove
Temperature is temperate
What about the love?

Chorus

The climate change
Man has induced
Exponential
Runaway train

Chorus

Could we manage
To reproduce
Expressional love
Just the same

Chorus

Ouch! Are we insane
Bringing on the pain
Ouch! Do some remain
That want good to re-gain

Ouch!.mp3

The song was inspired by a heat wave during the last week of May. I tried sitting on my usual songwriting wall, but the stone was so hot it burned my rear. If we could only love as good as we pollute?

If you think it’s out of reach
Maybe if you stand on your toes

If you think you can reach
You will grow
If you think can teach
Then, any which way the wind may blow

If you believe in the search
Matters not the Emperor’s clothes
… expose

When the tide rolls out
May it carry cares away
When it rolls back in
May you start new again

When the tide rolls out
May it ferry (fairy) you away
When it rolls back in
Well… may your youth return

Let the seagull fly
Across the sky
Let you imagination… occupy

Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun

By admin | Published: May 31, 2013

Coversong
Written by Syd Barrett
Made famous by Pink Floyd

LYRICS AND CHORDS

Am                   G              Am      G  Am
Little by little the night turns around,

                          G           Am    G  Am
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn

Dm                   C          Dm          C  Dm
Lotus's lean on each other in yearning,

Am               G              Am
Over the hills a swallow is resting

G  Am  F  Am  F  Am

                         G             Am   G  Am  G  Am  G  Am
Set the controls for the heart of the sun

Am                 G                 Am     G  Am
Over the mountains watching the watcher,

                      G               Am    G  Am
Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine

Dm                   C               Dm     C  Dm
Knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow,

Am                      G            Am
Love is the shadow that ripens the wine

G  Am  F  Am  F  Am

                         G             Am   G  Am  G  Am
Set the controls for the heart of the sun,

Am
The heart of the sun,  The heart of the sun...

Am                    G            Am       G  Am
Witness the man who waves at the wall,

                        G               Am  G  Am
Making the shape of his questions to heaven

Dm                   C               Dm     C  Dm
Whether the sun will fall in the evening,

Am                   G            Am
Will he remember the lesson of giving?

G  Am  F  Am  F  Am

                         G             Am   G  Am
Set the controls for the heart of the sun,

Am
The heart of the sun,  The heart of the sun...
