LYRICS
If you’re feeling blue
There’s something you can do
Just turn the corner
(remember turn the corner)
Up, up, up, up, up
And, smile a while

Splash on some happiness
Let it wash over you
Overcome. Be overlord
Of the darkness

Awash in the happiness
Part of the song and dance crew
Overcome. Never board.
Smack on the lips with a happiness kiss

At the end of your lips
The corner of your lips
Do away with the dips
Turn it up a bit

LYRICS
You’re shy. Don’t ask why.
When it comes to performing
When it comes to the public eye
You’re a little shy
You get butterflies
But, when God gives you the chance
You enchant people with dance

Please play a little
They pray you play a little
From the extremes to the middle

She’ll be there
Should you fall
If you’re playing for the Charity Ball

Ya’ll
Come play
At the Charity Ball

Now, as if you have a harp
Please play for the angels
They usually can’t dance
’till Hell freezes over
Without any pressure on you
Let’s see what you can do

ABOUT THE SONG
Written and recorded on August 29, 2012 at the corner of Church and Market Streets, West Chester, Pennsylvania.

When I started writing the song, I thought it was going to be impossible to produce an upbeat song with these chords. So, the idea for the song is the title. Where there is a will, there is a way!

LYRICS
The sooner we let go of the possessions (we think) we know
The sooner we’ll know where to go
In the meantime
Explore more

No boundaries on your your boundaries
Go beyond your universe (you-nee-verse)
No blinders to hinder your insight

And, out another
Without a doubt

Open the orifice

I’ve hears it from on high
An angelic thing where ya hear the air sing

ABOUT THE SONG

LYRICS
You can part
You can part
When you’re glowing in the heart

You can part any sea
Turn water to wine
Create a feast for the hungry to dine
(Loaves and fish dish)

The miracles you’ll spark
When you’re glowing in the heart
The hearts you’ll start
When you’re glowing in the dark

Emotional smarts
Spiritual larks
Take flight
Light the night

LYRICS
I am not supernatural
Though I’ll try and try
Until the day I die
To be the image of the image

And, I’ll try until the day I die
Knowing the answer to “why?”

This song is the theme song for album entitled “Natural Producer”. It has to with being the creator of music as compared to my creator. How do you recreate the image of sound through engineering and production?

Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

So, what am I compared to the Supernatural Being Producer?

LYRICS
I was…
Naked. Tied-up.
Bound and gagged
In the back of your mother’s station wagon
Hang-on
Lights are flashing
The spot light is on
Officer says, “What’s going on?”

Now, you’ve changed
How you’ve changed
Your mind rearranged
(You’re) estranged

Oh, no
She went psycho
Joined the Puritan Police
Now, I need a release

Oh, let my daughter go
’cause you know
You went psycho

You use to be some fun
But, now
People run!

You ain’t no superhero
With that super, super ego
No. No. No.

Janet, try your switch
’cause less is on

LYRICS
If you have a care for me
I will have a care for you
Together we can see it through
Weather it through any sea

I must have a care for you
It’s the very least to do
Thank you for helping me to see

Ate compassionate for breakfast
Gotta hunch I’ll have it for lunch
Can you stop by before the supper that’s last?

Feel deep before we’re past

Dive deep into your heart
And, part the see

If You Give A Care.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
C / F / E

Written and recorded August 25, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

It’s about love reciprocity. The album name “Natural Producer” has to do with the engineering and production of the music. Since the music is hoped to be *God Inspired*, names like deity, spirit, divinity, supernatural being and idol producer came to mind; however, that sounded too vain. So, what am I compared to the Supernatural Being Producer?

What do you sayhttp://idea.membrane.com/songwriter/wp-admin/post.php?post=2068&action=edit
Ask for assistance?
An ass that’s insistent?

Hey, God! What can I do for you today?
God, I pray and I pray there’s a way
I understand you’re short on hands
So, before I pass away
What can I do for you today?
