Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Oh, grandchild
Look what I’ve done
Tamed the wild
Nature’s undone
May your days be merry and bright
May all your Christmases be white!

Oh, grandchild
Look what I’ve done
Winters are mild
Nature’s undone
May your days be merry and bright
Will any Christmases be white?

Oh, grandchild
What can be done
To recompile
What I’ve undone?
May your days be merry and bright
May all your Christmases be white!

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Do you care to share
If there’s (any) love in there
Do you care to share
The love that’s there?
And we could be
A little bit happier
’cause the more we share
The more that’s there

Do you care to share
If there’s (any) love in there
Do you care to share
The love that’s there?
And we would be
A we would be
A little bit further
’cause the more we share
The more that’s there

Do you care to share
If there’s (any) love in there
Do you care to share
The love that’s there?
And we should be
In harmony
’cause the more we share
The more that’s there

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
What lengths to go to to find you
When you’re already there
Right out in front in plain view
So far, yet oh so near
Pinch me to see if I can see

What lengths to go to to find you
To see if you see me
Right out in front in plain view
So far, yet not nearly
Pinch me to see if I can see

When lengths are more behind you
When you’ve already passed
Still out in front in plain view
Before I fade to past
Pinch me to see if I can see

LYRICS
Do you ant to take a walk in the dark?
We could go park in the park
Undo the innuendo
Steaming up the window
As we address getting undressed

We could explore the great outdoors
Go to third base maybe more
Undo the innuendo
Steaming up the window
As we address getting undressed

Face-to-face in a necking race
Neck-to-neck leather and lace
Undo the innuendo
Steaming up the window
As we address getting undressed

Go down till you find what’s up
Get up…
Till you find what’s going down
Undo the innuendo
Steaming up the window
As we address getting undressed

Meteorological extreme
Did you bring the Bayou with you?
Baton Rouge
Paying dues
Caught your swampy blues
Do you know what I mean?
Meteorological extreme
Seems illogical

Now, its come this way
Arrived in PA
Just the other day
Na, na, na, Louisiana
Geez Louis… iana, na, na, na

A song about global warming and extreme weather events.

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Christmas approaching
Christmas approaching
Will I remember Merry Gentlemen
Too late for Tiny Tim…
… on the way to heaven
Take a piece of earth
Or give peace on Earth?
Consider human’s worth
And the meaning of birth

Christmas approaching
Christmas approaching
Well past September
The leaves have fallen
Can’t forget again
To help the appalling
Take a piece of earth
Or give peace on Earth?
Consider human’s worth
And the meaning of birth

Christmas approaching
Christmas approaching
Feeling the part
Of the Grinch That Stole Christmas
Alas,
With added Scrooge Attitude
Take a piece of earth
Or give peace on Earth?
Consider human’s worth
And the meaning of birth

LYRICS
A real life red nosed reindeer
with Santa Claus in tow
A story I hold dear to me
The story… do you know?
On now:
Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen
Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen
But after all
Can you recall….
A real life red nosed reindeer
with Santa Claus in tow
A story I hold dear to me
The story… do you know?

LYRICS
The surprised don’t hiccup much
Hold my breath, start counting
I suppose the dead arose?
The tides of time are turning

1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi
3 Mississippi… one more
5 Mississippi, 6 Mississippi
7 went to heaven
Praying “can we save one more?”

Standards are dropping
As the need’s popping
Mouths are calling
Morals falling
Understand
(All over the land)
Comprehend

What you do
Can get us through

Jaws are dropping
As the greed’s popping
Mouths are pleading
Spirits bleeding
Understand
(All over the land)
Comprehend

Can get us through

People dropping
Hearts are stopping
Mouths are crying
Stop our dying

What you do
Can get us through\

LYRICS
Let’s rise to the occasion
Give it all we’ve got
A heart led invasion
Give it all! Why not?
White knights into the light
Do goods do as they should

Unpleasant to peasants

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Just to be fair
It’s up in the air
Garden affair
Take me anywhere
Though the clock is ticking
Will I know when it ends?
Should try some time stretching
To see if it bends

Does anyone car
It’s up in the air
Be done I swear
Take me anywhere
Though the clock is ticking
Will I know when it ends?
Should try some time stretching
To see if it bends

Oh, no, to bear
“It’s up in the air”
In search of rare
Take me anywhere
Though the clock is ticking
Will I know when it ends?
Should try some time stretching
To see if it bends

LYRICS
I don’t know if I should sit down there
’cause I can’t tell if it’s an empty chair
Sittin’ on a throne of thorn
Waitin’ for reborn

I don’t know if we should break some bread
’cause I can’t tell if you’re already fed
Sittin’ on a throne of thorn
Waitin’ for reborn

I don’t know…
Can we raise the dead?
’cause I can’t tell who made this bed
Sittin’ on a throne of thorn
Waitin’ for reborn

Fall Colors
LYRICS
Millions of colors
Millions of colors
Millions of colors
The pupil of iris
Teaches us focus
So, eye can see clearly
So, I can see clearly
So, we can clearly see

Millions of colors
Foundation’s pillars
Millions of colors
The pupil of iris
Teaches us focus
So, eye can see clearly
So, I can see clearly
So, we can clearly see

Millions of colors
Dullest’s killer
Millions of colors
The mind’s miller
Millions of colors
The pupil of iris
Teaches us focus
So, eye can see clearly
So, I can see clearly
So, we can clearly see

The numbers in colors
Spectrum continuum
The millions of colors
As though I’m living in a prism
… I’m living in a prism
