Love Charade

Posted on October 20, 2015October 20, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
I don’t want you to go
I don’t want you to stay
And, that’d be OK on any other day

No silent treatment
Nor irate rant
Fear that you can… fear that you can’t

Woke up this morning
The sun was gone
It wouldn’t be long ’til you came along
The sky goes dark
As you embark
Love charade raining on my parade

Damn The Torpedoes

Posted on September 4, 2015September 4, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
Damn the torpedoes
Hell or high-water
We’re gettin’ outta here

Throw rotten tomatoes
Do what we gotta
Living without fear

Do what I got to do
To break on through
Do what I got to do
And, I’ll take you, too

Up shit’s crick without a paddle
I know to row/go with the flow
Fall off the horse get back on the saddle
Set sail when winds blow

The Sands Of Time

Posted on September 4, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
The grains in the hourglass drain
The sands of time are fine
Against course reality

Try not to miss the kiss of life’s lips
Spreading the seed to let love breed

On our ride to the otherside
Givin’ more than we take in
Directing our energy
Creating our destiny

Chorus

Heaven’s gate will have to wait
I’ve more to do… how ’bout you?
We can move Heaven and Earth
Before our dirge and re-birth

LYRICS
Hurling through space on this land mass
Around the sun make one more pass
Awful glad we’re nomad
The best times we’ve ever had

You can only be coming home
By making home where you roam

Using Earth as our mothership
Hoping we learn some stewardship
Time to get our house in shape
Starting to give instead of take

Chorus

Easy to see we’re merely gypsies
Making our wagon from earth and seas
Traveling through time… traveling through space
Calling the journey our sovereign place

Wingnuts

Posted on September 2, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
Right wing. Left wing.
Hear them sing
Thinking they’re the only thing
Left wing. Right wing.
Here’s the thing
Coming to our table with nothing to bring

The wind of change is starting to blow
Time to re-arrange… time for them to go

Right wing. Left wing.
All ding-a-ling
Thinking they’re the only thing
Left wing. Right wing.
Bird can’t fly
No co-operating… any wonder why?

Chorus

Right wing. Left wing.
Whole thing’s stinkin’
Makes ya wonder what the hell they are thinkin’
Left wing. Right wing. All are freakin’
Waitin’ to see who’s the first one blinkin’

Business As Usual

Posted on September 2, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
As one can plainly see
There’s something wrong in D.C.
Politicians line their pockets
Popping eyeballs from their sockets

Dropping jaws hit the floor
No more! It’s all I can endure
You turn my vote into rote
Then you gloat on your lavish bloat

Taking advantage of me
Taking our “be” gladly
Public servant’s been bent
On the trust we’ve lent

Chorus

Fat cat feeds the hypocrite
No one seems to care a bit
The elite spreading deceit
The public should unseat

LYRICS
Oh you can’t go to heaven on a city bus
’cause a city bus won’t carry us
Oh you can’t go to hell on the Frankford El
Come to think of it… probably just as well
How did I come to occupy a foreign spy
Novel spy novel

It won’t be long ’till you’re playin’ James Bond
007 on a mission from heaven
Of all the ladies you are fond
Place your bets on seven/eleven
Silent alarm
Good luck charm

Oh you can’t get to heaven on this train
’cause this train you can’t restrain
Runaway train heading straight to hell
Better jump off in case you couldn’t tell
Double crossed by a double agent
Retrospective trust misspent

Chorus

What’s going round is coming round
’till justice balanced can be found

An Idea

Posted on September 1, 2015September 1, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
I thought it’d all been said
That’s when it entered my head

If no one’s listening
’cause ears are blistering
Deaf, dumb and blind to being kind

I thought she’d been put to bed
That’s when she rose from the dead

Chorus

The last chapter’s been read
On which path were you led

Chorus

Are you seeing white or seeing red
Choose the right to be invested

Coming Up

Posted on September 1, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
Coming up with the rising sun
Look around… you’re not the only one
Coming up meadow of spring green
Intertwined roots can’t be seen

A dependent foundation
Independent validation
Social individual combination

Coming up with the rising tide
Filled with saline solution inside
Coming up love… it’s a flood
Sharing all is our red blood

Chorus

Coming up with a humane solution
Dealing with our political pollution
We can take responsibility
Coming up a lil’ you, a lil’ me

Twisted Wind

Posted on August 31, 2015 by admin

LYRICS

A tiger chasing its tail (tale)
Little Black Sambo will prevail
Turning that mean mudder
Into a slick of butter

Twisted wind
Spinnin’ round
gin’ and agin’

All around the mulberry bush
Weasel pursued by monkey
It was hard for the weasel to see
Amusement in the rush

Chorus

All is well on the carousel
Listening to the pump organ sing
Up and down as we go ’round
Bound to grasp the brass ring

Chorus

Sir Vent

Posted on August 31, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
What message do you want to send
Your intent and what is meant
I’ll be your servant… just call me Sir Vent

Oh, Lord, what can I do
Who can I serve you?

Come from a tribe of scribes
No corruption. No bribes.
Just tell me what you want to
I’ll get the message through

Do what I have to, too
To convey what you say

A bugle to blow… a trumpet
Where it is wrong went

At Your Fingertips

Posted on August 31, 2015August 31, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
Hey!
Maybe your gravy train….
Maybe your gravy boat….
Maybe your ship is comin’ in

Through the mist
Right into your midst
Into your consciousness

Unknotted twist
Let go of your fist
Discover happiness

Discover happiness
It’s at your fingertips
Evolve your consciousness

Play fingertips play
Play finger tip plays
Play out my days

How To Win

Posted on August 30, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
Don’t look back
It’ll slow your pace
When you’re ahead
Winning the race
Don’t look back

Don’t look back
Don’t show your face
Front of the pack
Winning the race
Don’t look back

Don’t look back
Hit the road Jack
Kepp your focus
On the course
Don’t look back

Don’t look back
Leave no trace
A wise sage said
When you’re ahead
Don’t look back

… ’till you’re all done
… ’till the race is won

LYRICS
People playing music
Singin’ n’ dancin’
People playing music everywhere

Music cures the sick
Health enticing
People playing music are aware

When they play, they heal
When they sing, they feel
When they dance… enhance

Breathing

People making music
Bringin’ on the singin’
People making music everywhere
Let the music kick
Soothin’ stingin’
People making music — our aware

Branden Bauer — Guitar, Inspiration

I’d just published an article about Music Can Ease the Pain and went to the park to create a song. While getting the groove on, a stranger arrived on the scene. It turned out to be Branden Bauer, and he had a guitar in his trunk. After introductions, we recorded the guitars on a park bench in Marshall Square Park.

Excuse Me, But….

LYRICS
Wait! Hold it for a minute
Tag you’re it
Yo, Buddy, whoa… not so fast

You say when last is first
Then first will be last
A thirst for knowledge gasp
Will the endless loop pass?

Chorus

From the dust a mass
’till the masses amass
A thirst for knowledge gasp
Will these zombies pass?

Chorus

Daniel 12 to thirteen
DO you know what I mean
A thirst for knowledge gasp
Will the End Of Days pass?

2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. 4 But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.
