bookmark_borderFill ’em Up

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
Throwin’ fit

The Yank-ee doodle
Ain’t so dandy
Caging kids
And offering candy
The insanity
By-gone rarity
Into the padded cell?
Oh, well
All’s well

LYRICS
There’s one thing I’d hate
If you’d to call me late
The late Mr. Smith
The late Mr. Jones
Brings on sobs and moans
Yeah, please don’t call me late
For the end date, I’ll wait
No please don’t call me late
I can wait and wait and wait
Wait! Please don’t call me late

There’s one thing I’d hate
If you’d to call me late
The late… wait!
Wait! Hold the phones
Brings on sobs and moans
Brings on tears and groans

Wait! Please don’t call me late

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
If there’s a next stop

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

bookmark_borderFractals Falling

LYRICS
The fractals are falling
Wonder if they’ll lay?
Even a light dusting
Would be OK
Let’s go out and play
What do you say?
Ride on a sleigh
Slide… on our way

The snowballs are flying
Better duck and/or sway
The wind blow is drifting
The fractals disarray
Let’s go out and play
What do you say?
Ride on a sleigh
Slide… on our way

The runners are gliding
We’re on our way
The bonfire is burning
On a waning winters day
Let’s go out and play
What do you say?
Ride on a sleigh
Slide… on our way

Traditional English Carol

    Em                            C              B7
God rest ye merry, gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
    Em                           C              B7
For Jesus Christ our Saviour was born upon this day
   Am               G                  Em            D
To save us all from Satan's pow'r when we were gone astray
  G          B7          Em               D
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
  G          B7          Em
O tidings of comfort and joy

From God our heavenly Father a blessed angel came
And unto certain shepherds brought tidings of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

The shepherds at those tidings rejoiced much in mind
And left their flocks a-feeding in tempest, storm and wind
And went to Bethlehem straightway this blessed Babe to find
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

But when to Bethlehem they came whereat this Infant lay
They found Him in a manger where oxen feed on hay
His mother Mary kneeling unto the Lord did pray

Now to the Lord sing praises, all you within this place
And with true love and brotherhood each other now embrace
This holy tide of Christmas all other doth deface

Going out on…
Going out on a limb

Baked in the cake
Baby comes tumblin’, tumblin’ down

Needed time for my head
After what you said
Needed time for my head
Having been put to bed

My hearts done… bled
Bled out the red
