bookmark_borderSmile On

LYRICS
Really not missing
Moaning and pissing
How things use to be
The hustling bustling
Pushing and shoving
Always got to me
A new day has dawned
For those who smile on
… smile on… and, on….

Really am wishing
Hugging and kissing
Will come back to me
Loving and touching
Holding unfolding
The way it ought to be
A new day has dawned
For those who smile on
… smile on… and, on….

LYRICS
One and the same…
One and the same thing
Or some other offering?
Pigs taking wing
Going over like a lead zeppelin
Offering a lead balloon… loon
Taking the world down along the ride
… out of pride?
Or a black heart hide
Crash and burn
Yearn?
I shall not yield
Shield!

LYRICS
Angels sing
Shepherds come running
Bizarre star
Brings wisemen from afar
And, here we are
Twiddling thumbs
Complaining of free-dumbs
While the past comes
The future goes
Now the future’s passed
(Wow, that happened fast)
Do you think anyone knows?
There it goes!
There goes some more
Going to be future-poor
If we even endure, or…
Hear the angels sing?
Let’s get running
Toward the bizarre star
It’s really not that far

LYRICS
That soul is empty
Lack in empathy
Just a deep hole
Lacking sympathy
They say misery
Likes company
Let’s fill ’em up
Their half-empty cup

That heart is empty
Lack of empathy
Just a black hole/whole
Lacking sympathy
They say misery
Likes company
Let’s fill ’em up
Their half-empty cup

LYRICS
Can you believe
He just wont’ quit
Can you believe
Complete bull$hit
I guess That’s just part
Of the part and parcel
The kit and kaboodle

By-gone rarity
Into the padded cell?
Oh, well

LYRICS
Hey, Baby
Can I make you smile
Hey, Baby
Even for a little while?
In a manger, there he lay
All I’ll say is,
“Can I play?”
And, Baby
Maybe make you smile for a while
If by chance
It’ll make you dance…
Or, just sway in a swaddlin’ way
Baby, can I get you to dance?

LYRICS
Stepping outside to take a look
At the cover on this book
Try to understand
What’s in this man
What was, is, and going to be…
Me (me, me, me)
It’s time to judge this book
By its cover
(Take a look)
Uncover
Discover
I know underneath
Bones and teeth
Under skin and bone
Undercover is alone
Blood n’ guts…
… n’ nuts
(Going nuts)
Stepping outside to take a look
At the cover on this book

Forgot to get off in time
I’m thinking…
I’m along for the ride
Best to hop off

LYRICS
I’m dreaming
… dreaming of…
I’m dreaming of love
In a black and white Christmas
The pace of the race
Together forever
Embrace
The sight of black and white
The “religions of the book”
Take a look
Straight back through:
“The King of the Jews”
Mohamed, Jesus, Moses in black and white
A black and white Christmas

Roll up
Sit back
It’s a hell of a show
Rock on
Blow up
A political hoe
Digging dirt

Digging in the dirt
Digging up the dirt
Pigging out the hurt
