bookmark_borderBottleneck

LYRICS
See the bottleneck is building
Soon it all will be exploding
See the pressure as it’s mounting
Up against the cork it’s popping
The road’s fork
Popped the cork

From the mouth it spews out frothing
As the guts spill forth bowels gushing
Problem’s sum/some are more than little
Put it back into the bottle
The road’s fork
Popped the cork

LYRICS
Hush now baby, don’t you cry
Daddy’s gonna wipe a tearful eye
Wave all the problems bye-bye

Wave all the troubles bye-bye
We’re resolving problems
Busting trouble’s bubbles
Bye-bye

LYRICS
It was obvious, I know
From the very first moment
You started to glow
Here we go
In the movement
Of your flow
Here we go
’til time stamped “meant”
In your afterglow
The very thought of touch and taste
What we’ve got…
… go not to waste
You started to glow
Here we go
In the movement
Of your flow
Here we go
’til time stamped “meant”
In your afterglow

bookmark_borderEternal Springtime

LYRICS
When you hear “eternal spring”
What springs to mind
Colors popping will bring
One-of-a-kind
Remember not to stare at the sun
It’ll ruin all the fun
Heart of the sunrise in the long run
When all is said and done
I am seeing
It’s in your being

When you hear “fountain of youth”
What flows to mind
A laughter and playing sleuth
To seek and find
Remember not to stare at the sun
It’ll ruin all the fun
Heart of the sunrise in the long run
When all is said and done
I am seeing
It’s in your being
I am seeing
… in your being
In your being

Taking in the spring with awe
Watching our hive
As it comes alive

bookmark_borderSpring For It

LYRICS
The green is growing more intense
The sky is more blue, too
The air is fresher… I can sense
Considering what’s best to do
How do we save the planet
From our inhabitance
Is it possible to plant it
With a little more reverence?

Have we caused the balance
To get out of whack
Have we in essence…
Given Earth a heart attack?
How do we save the planet
From our inheritance
Is it possible to plant it
With a little more reverence?

LYRICS
Drip, drip, drip, drip, drop
There’s a problem up top
Glaciers quickly melting
Dropping into the sea
Is the Earth revolting
Guess we’re going to see
… guess we’re going to sea

Splish, splash, slplish, splash, flash
In the fall of our autumn
There’s a problem with our bottom
Glaciers quickly melting
Dropping into the sea
Is the Earth revolting
Guess we’re going to see
… guess we’re going to sea

How did we get so far offtrack
Is it too, too late to get back
No reason to ask why

When did we go so far offtrack
Is it too, too late to keep track
No reason to ask why

There’s nothing we lack
Finding our way on-track
Starting to get the knack
Back… back on-track

Where did we go so far offtrack

LYRICS
Hmmm… who knows?
I suppose…
I know!
1 = 1
And, the sum
1 + 1 = 2, too
How about you?

Enrich what you know
As a matter of fact
Black is black
Can’t put up a fight
White is white
End the ignorance blight
Gaining insight

LYRICS
Moving on toward seven
Getting a slice of heaven
Wednesday open mic
Got Carey on the big screen
Know what I mean?
Scuba Steve keeping it clean
Adds to the routine
You know cup-a-Joe
Is on in between
Wednesday open mic
Six’s on after seven
I can’t stay up ’till eleven
With Simon and Garfunkel by Tom…
You know you can’t go wrong
Wednesday open mic
You’re just in time
2 Nickels make a dime
There is no fuss
When up comes Gus
And, Rick is in the thick
Wednesday open mic

Catch a honey “be” with sugar
Are you going to let the “be” free?
Living life with vigor
Sure is doing it for me

Feel your heart growing bigger
Now that you’ve set the “be free”

Can you spread the love farther/further
Now that we’ve set the “be free”
Living our lives with vigor
Sure is a fine thing to see
