LYRICS
The smile on your face
The loving embrace
It’s heart warming
Enduring

When I began to figure it out
I was just a little sprout
Couldn’t help but to laugh and grin
If I could, I’d do it over again

Then as I started to grow
Wasn’t hard for me to get to know
Taking time to smile with you
Adversity we’d get through

Time goes by and I grow old
Hopefully when my story is told
It’ll bring a smile to your face
Remembering the time we enjoyed in this place

LYRICS
There’s been a natural (nature) release
Have a… won’t you… won’t you please
Have a nice day

Flourishing flora and fauna fulfill
I believe… I believe I will
Perceive… I will do it today

The sun came out
The sky turned blue
Good cheer’s about
How about you?

Happening supernatural release
Have a… won’t you please
Please have a piece/peace
Just the place I love to go
Hearts and souls overflow
The kind-of show ya wanna get to know
Reap the seeds you sow

LYRICS
Try to lift my head
To see what lies ahead
Forget about being skeptical
There’s no obstacle

I heard it said
We can raise the dead
Not so magical
As it is mystical

As the edge you hone
Pull a sword from a stone
Forget the lackadaisical
You’re inspirational

Chorus

Once the Spirit’s fed
We’ll let Her lead be led
No matter how near or how far
We’ll follow to spectacular

LYRICS
Would you mind turning it up a notch, please?
Though I find it pleasant, I’m thinking it’s only a tease
See if you can give the volume a little nudge
Then, give a push on the tempo… see if she’ll budge

LYRICS
Is the same old story growing old… growing old
A new set of words needs to be told… to be told

It’s time the scribe prescribed
Subscription to a new prescription
An evolution of elevation
Time to prescribe — higher vibe

Diarrhea diary to be so bold… be so bold
A load of crap to be sold… to be sold

Chorus

Journalize the times with good news… with good news
Give the people the choice and let them choose… let them choose

LYRICS
Just because I’m rather small
Doesn’t mean I can’t see at all
Letting the third-eye ascend
Rising up toward heaven

Flying high
Gonna find out why
We’re destined to die
Yet, we try, try, try

Just because I’m a tiny speck
Doesn’t mean I don’t give a heck
Gonna stand up tall
Appreciate it all… quash the squall

Chorus

Just because I might be insignificant
Doesn’t mean I won’t give every little bit
Reaching deep within
Letting the love shower begin

Chorus

LYRICS
The times are changing… changing fast
Won’t be long ’till the future’s past
Yeah, time is changing… sure hope it’ll last
But you can’t hang on….
Better off letting go
Better off… just let it flow

The times are changing… to the future we go
Won’t be long ’till the future we know
Yeah, time moves faster until I slow
Use to be my lifetime was a whole year
Now a year’s a fraction of my time here

LYRICS
Come out of the dark
Meet me in the park
We’ll frolic, dance and play
In the light all day
And, when the sun does set
We won’t be done yet
Gaining insight into the night

Let’s shift out of park
Into drive… embark
We’ll frolic, dance and play
In the light all day

Chorus

Come out on a lark
Imagination spark
We’ll frolic, dance and play
In the light all day

LYRICS
Hate to break the news
Hate to pick n’ choose
Hate to break the knews
You didn’t earn the blues

Hate to break the news
Hate to pick n’ choose
Hate to break the knews
You don’t deserve the blues

All the time you try
Wasted moments ’till we die
Personal pie-in-the-sky
Question your existence — why?

Hate to break the news
Hate to pick n’ choose
Hate to break the knews
You didn’t earn the blues

Without selfishness
Devoid of ignorance
Never pretentious
No arrogance

LYRICS
Glad you made it to my gig
So happy to see you jig
No. Don’t choose sorrow
Not today… not tomorrow

The smile on your face
The gleam in your eye
Bring joy to the place
Don’t need to try

Kathleen, what you bring to the scene
Kathleen, do you know what I mean

Invite me in to have some fun
Show compassion… and then some

LYRICS
There’s a monkey in the circus
And he’s dressed like us
There’s a monkey in the circus
And he walks like us
There’s a monkey in the circus
Reminds us of us
(a little too much like us)

There’s a lion in the zoo
Thinks he’s king of us, too
There’s a lion in the zoo
But he’s caged like us, too
There’s a lion in the zoo
Are we lying to ourselves, too?

There’s a man in our home
So we’re not alone
There’s a man in our home
Saying it ain’t ours to own
There’s a man in our home
Turns out I’m his clone
There’s a man in our home
Guess I’m not alone

Out of the Cage Outrage.mp3

LYRICS
There should be outrage!
Who let you out of your cage?
Out of the cage outrage
You’ve set the stage
For the age of rage
There will be outrage
When they find you’re out of your cage
There should be outrage!
Who let you out of your cage?
After all the wars you wage
Why would someone let you out of your cage
Outrageous… outrage us
Out of the cage outrage
Outrageous outrage outrages us

The End Time’s in need of a sage
Please make contact… engage
Please help us gauge
The edge of the page
We don’t want our words running off the side
And the true meaning to hide on the flipside

LYRICS
Eyes gaze in a daze
Eyes glazed in a haze
Can either ear hear
Are you deaf, my Dear?

Chorus
Can you see me signaling
This is the ending
Can you hear me screaming
“Dreaming of you listening”

Eyes stare… unaware
Is anyone in there
Do you think it’s cute
Playing like a mute

Chorus

Eyes open yet blind
Blind-eye turned… not kind
I fear you can hear
Your contempt is clear

Chorus
