LYRICS
Don’t look back
If you’re out… out in the lead
It’s quite likely you’ll succeed
Just…
Don’t look back
No, don’t look back
Stay in focus with the coarse
Of coarse, they’re is nothing that you need
Don’t look back
Through the finish line and beyond
We’ll land in the humane human land
Don’t look back

LYRICS
Not behind your behind
I want to face your face
Just catching the tail end of the tale’s end
What message do we send
Just wishing the ail end of the whale’s end
Our savage we do send
Not behind your behind
I want to trace your face
Not behind the behind
W ant to pace the race
But, I feel like I’m talking to your butt

Ice Storm Drops Glass Bomb.mp3
LYRICS
Glass bomb
Flash bang
Everything in sight
Splattered in white
The strangest sounds all around
Branches crashing to the ground
Glass bomb
Flash bang
Make you sit up in your bed
Cracking noise goes through your head
Glass bomb
Flash bang
Everything in sight
Icing glazed light
The strangest sounds all around
Branches crashing to the ground
Glass bomb
Flash bang
There’s panic on the sidewalk
There’s panic on the street
Lack of ‘lectric all the talk
If only we could meet
Glass bomb
Flash bang

Whole In My Head Music Video.mp4
LYRICS
Look! There’s a hole in my head so that I can see out
And, just for fun… God gave me another one
Turning the night into the light
Listen! There’s a hole in my head so that my ear can hear
God’s my hero, two… for giving me stereo
I get to surround my mind in sound
Sing! There’s a hole in my head so that I can shout out
May we teach… all we can reach
I get to say… thank you for this day

(The Grinch That Stole The Christmas Blues)
LYRICS
You’re never alone on Christmas
Isn’t that what it’s all about?
Feeling lonely is only if you miss
The essence of the Christmas presence
Let’s figure it out?
The love will always be there, I swear
As long as there’s someone…
As long as there’s anyone…
As long as someone cares
That someone could be you
Lord, lordy, Lord, Lord, lordy
Lord, with you…. make two
And, as far as I can see
There’s me
(… that’s three…)
For crying out loud — A CROWD!
Singing Merry Christmas, Almighty
Bless you for taking pity
And, keeping me company

Bumbles Bounce Music Video.mp4
LYRICS
An abominable snowman
Part creature… part man
The part abominable
Most probable
Man
Abominable… causing moral revulsion
Diversion, subversion, exclusion
Time for the inclusion solution
Let’s hope humanity can bounce back
After our ethical attack
Pushed ourselves over the cliff
Mostly over a religious riff
The penalty… swift and stiff
Time to be humble
Overcome our bumble
Do what counts
Do the bumble bounce
ABOUT THIS SONG

“Christians are the most widely persecuted religious group in the world today and this evening we think especially of the Middle East, especially of Egypt, Iraq and Syria,” The Archbishop of Canterbury, Christmas, 2013
This song was inspired by the travesty of religious conflicts and killings during 2013. Unfortunately, the list is too long to list… Shiite, Sunni, Armenians, Christian, Buddhists, Dinka, Nuer, Beni Hussein, Rizeigat, Jews, Muslims… in Syria, Israel, Burma, South Sudan, Central African Republic, Nigeria, Turkey, Egypt, Afghanistan, Iraq… and on and on. Let’s pray we can bounce back.

LYRICS
Upon him, I cast my eyes
What a surprise
Mesmerized
I realize
The power of the spirit
Do not fear it
I want to endear it
Rationalized
Heaven on Earth realized
Immortalized
Heaven on Earth realized

LYRICS
There’s light at the end…
There’s light at the end…
There’s light at the end of the tunnel
Lord, deliver us from this hell hole
Gloria
Gloria hysteria
Hallelujah, the hell hole is over
You brought light into the world
When “The End” was foretold
Turning meek into bold
Bringing warmth from the cold
Wanting the love to unfold

LYRICS
Here’s a Christmas ditty
Hopefully, something pretty
A gift to you and all your kin
From the country to the city
The dense to the witty
May goodwill come back to you again and again
Listen to the angels sing
The saving grace they bring

LYRICS
Why do we countdown on New Year’s Eve?
When I think of time, it’s hard to perceive
10,9,8….
Wait!
How much time between now and the end of 13
2013 364 23 59 50, 51, 52….
2014
Know what I mean?
Burst onto the scene
The New Year’s Queen
The first moment
Of the first minute
In a new time rhyme

LYRICS
Ho, ho, ho, hallelujah
Ho, ho, ho, hallelujah
Do you know
How does the saying go?
Recipe for a gingerbread house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
Do you know
How does the saying go?
Stockings hung by the chimney with care
Something about roasting chestnuts there
Do you know
How does the saying go?
Dashing… ore the fields we go
Don’t forget the mistletoe
Do you know
How does the saying go?
We three kings of orient are
Do you see what I see… follow the star
Do you know
How does the saying go?
Rudolph with your nose so bright
With a tail… a tail as long as a kite
Do you know
How does the saying go?
Oh, holy night
May all your Christmases be white
Do you know
How does the saying go?

Just sitting here
Deserve nothing

Overflow

… so go with the flow

LYRICS
Leave them screaming for some more
Your neighbor
Next door
Your neighbor
Next door
Love thy neighbor
As thy self
Preserve self-wealth
Could be less fancy
Call yourself Nancy
Crowned Dog God
No matter how odd
Better off plowing
Where it’s been snowing
A path to peace
At the very least
