Inspired by the moonflower seeds that sprouted into the sun… growing more tasty than alfalfa, bean or others.
Written sittin’ on the wall at the corners of Market and High streets in downtown West Chester… while sittin’ next to some sprouts… and before ya knew it, they were sprouting everywhere. A beautiful thing — a flower child patch sprouting.
Quarter fairy, barely
The heat is no match for a sprout
No doubt
Ya play it funked up blues

I swear
There’s something in the air
Helping me see clearly
G / F walkdown to C
The atmosphere
Helping me see clear
I swear
There’s something in the air
Helping me see more clearly

This court just is
Justice is
Somewhere else
True or false?
Jest the jesters
A G D A
Whimscal minstrels whistle
While we manifest best
East and West
Least is Most
an onslaught of justice
The ‘ole fashion way —
Judgement Day
Jesters in an ironic twist
Jest, lest be betwix
“No, all the more! … ’til heavens door

written in Atlantic City, NJ and Ocean City, NJ
at one point there was this sign in Mack and Manko Pizza about “Don’t Change Ocean City” that made me smile in a sad way

The Last Resort
C / Am
Have you heard the news report
We’re down to the last resort
(the last great resort, great resort)
Welcome to the great last resort
It’s not as great
As it use to be
You see
The seaside spot
Is not (is not)
Beside
The sea

…. going down, down, down

with no urge to submerge
Second verse:
Paradise island… now Paradise was land
