Posted on by admin

LYRICS
In the space between my ears
Wishing everyone hears
In the space…
Between my ears
It seems to me a symphony
To life and the living glory
To have been given
Birth on Earth
Thank my mother
And father
In heaven
Saying:
A men a man again

LYRICS
You do the hoochie coo
You do, you do, you do
You do the hoochie coo
Held together with cosmic glue
Now knowing what I knew
La de da de da da de do

Better than the voodoo
You do, you do, you do
Better than the voodoo
Held together… interstellar glue
Now knowing what I knew
La de da de da da de do

No way to feel blue
Thank you, thank you, thank you
No way to feel blue
Held together… celestial glue
Now knowing what I knew
La de da de da da de do

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Is the itty bitty
So small after all
Down to the nitty gritty
Of substantial

The eye in so-sigh-it-y
Me and responsibility
Relative to the entirety

Do you hear the tolling of the bell
Beyond the depths of the wishing well
Does one choose heaven or hell
I figure I might just as well

Is the down and dirty
So filthy after all
Down in the nitty gritty
Of substantial

LYRICS
What is that that I see
Floating in front of me
How could it really be
Do my eyes deceive me?
Floater drifting by
The inside of my eye
Floater floating by
The inside of my I

What on Earth shall I be
Bound by my mortality
Life’s certainty
#uck all that destiny

So this is your reality
Floaters you can not see
Oh I pity
Those void of fantasy

LYRICS
Arrive at the doorstep
A secret that’s well kept
A surprise is due for you
An innovation in invitation
Rehearsing in reverse
A meditation in activation
Arrive to bring it alive

We’ll bring our own party
Can hardly be tardy
A surprise is due for you

Well how did you like it
We hope quite a good bit
The surprise was due for you

bookmark_borderTemptress Of Joy

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Since when did being a good boy
Mean you couldn’t have a fun
Perhaps the temptress of joy is coy
And your reality done
Turning your world upside down
All your silly notions start to drown
How’s it feel
Knocked back on your heel
For real?

Since when did being a good man
Mean you couldn’t get some
Perhaps the temptress of joy is coy
And your reality done
Turning your world upside down
All your silly notions start to drown
How’s it feel
Knocked back on your heel
For real?

Since when did being a wise man
Mean you can’t appear dumb
Perhaps the temptress of joy is coy
And your reality done
Turning your world upside down
All your silly notions start to drown
How’s it feel
Knocked back on your heel
For real?

bookmark_borderThe Feel

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Now here we lay
No longer led astray
The victor of the day
Now peace is on the way
O.K.
Oh the feel of love we’re soaking in
Let the fantasy we’ve dreamed begin

Took the load off our feet
Makes us light in the head
Though tired… feeling beat
Not quite ready for bed
… she said
Oh the feel of love we’re soaking in
Let the fantasy we’ve dreamed begin

Forever is a lifetime
To ask you to be mine
To put it quite simply
Be the one to ask me
My plea
Oh the feel of love we’re soaking in
Let the fantasy we’ve dreamed begin

bookmark_borderThe Clocks Are Running Backwards

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
What went up
Use to come down
Now there’s no logic
Anywhere around
The clocks are running backwards
In reverse takes you forward
Left left right
Right left out of spite

What goes around
Use to come around
Now there’s no reason
Anywhere around

What comes to life
Use to die
Don’t ask why
Death we do defy

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Do your skies turn blue
Do your dreams come true
Do you enjoy doing the things you do?

You’re never alone
When Earth’s your home
The greatest gift of all
Is living ’til the fall
Of the curtain
(That’s for certain)

Do your skies turn bright
Is your life alright
Do the things you’re doing give you delight?

Are your skies cloud free
Is your mood happy
Do you enjoy being the things you be?

bookmark_border7(11) = 13

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Seven eleven
Six of one… half dozen of the other
Or thirteen?
Not sure what it means
Is 7(11) 13?
7(11) a blessing from heaven
Vs. lucky #13… some spell from hell
The sine of a standing wave swell
Where the texture
Of the sound is found
Picture
A piece of peace
Shared ’round

bookmark_borderGray Matter Splatter

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Don’t ask which came first
Please don’t
“The chicken or the egg?”
Don’t say, “Break a leg!”
Please don’t (I beg)
Or my brain might burst
A gray matter splatter everywhere
Emptied skull lay bare
Ear to ear rushed full of air
No, there’s no membrane there

No “high or low road?”
Please no/know
“Which road do you take?”
Would have baked a cake
Please no/know
Or my head might explode
A gray matter splatter everywhere
Emptied skull lay bare
Ear to ear rushed full of air
No, there’s no membrane there

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Ready to take flight into the light
Take flight into the light
Take flight
Feeling light
A thought not that far remote
Not that far remote
Afloat
Gliding in the flow of the timing
Reason and rhyming
Getting in a tailwind
Effortless in a bliss
Blowing kisses

Define the fine art that’s gravity defying
No denying
Lifted like wings full sail that sings
Lift brings
Smooth sailing
Getting in a tailwind
Effortless in a bliss
Blowing kisses

LYRICS
Ride high into the sky
Say good-bye
Rise high into the sky
Wave good-bye
The best time of my life
In the memories lie
Forever in your memory
Remember me

Ride up high into the sky
Say good-bye
Rise up high into the sky
Wave good-bye
Forever now and more
I’m just a memory
Forever now before
Remember me

LYRICS
One of these things is not like the others
One of these things is unique
One of these things is not like the others
Tell me… what do you think?
Has the leopard changed his spots
I tend to think not
Is that horse in striped pajamas
Or a zebra gone bananas

Does it come as a great surprise
You’ve won the door prize
Open it if you choose
Close it… you lose

Does a horse of a different color
Start to make you holler
Does jellyfish come with peanut butter
Would it make you feel any better
