There’s only one place I know
Where the land is green
And, the sky is blue

There’s only one place I know
With a menagerie scene
And, love for you

Pour the Milky Way
It’s not that far…
Third house from our star

We call Her
Home Sweet Home
Menagerie
Where people roam
Home Sweet Home

Humbleness
Modestly, I gotta say
Er, a…
A beautiful place
To breed our race
Via
Her Graciousness

Home Sweet Home

The Rollover

C / F / Am
Let’s go!
While tomorrow turns to yesterday

Where will you be
When it turns anti-climatic
Where will you be
For the last act
Where will you be
For the curtain call
Where will you be
When the credits scroll

Do you care to be here at all?

How do you think they will get here
Do you think they will fall from the sky
How do you think they will get here
Do you think they will rise from the dust

Will we try
We must
Will we try
We must

Come on
Join the party
Come on
Join the show
Come on
Let’s go

G walkdown to C

If we want to stop this from happening
We better wake up

Better wake-up

It would appear the edge is near
At the precipice is us

[secret message here]

Stop the slumber
Start to wonder
Gotta wake-up

Does anybody know what time it is?
I’d really like to go to school today

Please do NOT hit the snooze switch!

bookmark_borderFlower Child Sprouts

Inspired by the moonflower seeds that sprouted into the sun… growing more tasty than alfalfa, bean or others.

Written sittin’ on the wall at the corners of Market and High streets in downtown West Chester… while sittin’ next to some sprouts… and before ya knew it, they were sprouting everywhere. A beautiful thing — a flower child patch sprouting.

Quarter fairy, barely
The heat is no match for a sprout
No doubt

Ya play it funked up blues

C / Am
Have you heard the news report
We’re down to the last resort
(the last great resort, great resort)

Welcome to the great last resort
It’s not as great
As it use to be

You see
The seaside spot
Is not (is not)
Beside
The sea

Paradise island… now Paradise was land

I’ve got some friends
I’d like you to know
So, let’s get up…
Get up and go

These are the kind of people
Though they don’t congregate
Under a steeple
They help the light shine
The light shine
Shine on and on and on

These people I call friends
Most of them are true
Until the end
Though you know
How things can go
A friend can turn
Into foe
Just so you know

Let the light shine

As far as I know
These are the people
That you want to know
The kind-of friend
You want to the bitter end

Let the light shine on and on and on

So, if you’re not too busy
If you’re not feeling over worked
If you won’t be a complete idiot jerk
I’ll show to some good, good friends
You can be a good, good friend
To the bitter, bitter end

It’s the least I can do
Now that I know you

If it seems you’re day isn’t quite fulfilling
How’s this for gelling
These friends can show ya how to be groovin’
When you get together
It’s like heaven

It’s not a lesson in forgiving
It’s more about believing
In one another
Like sister and brother
Like mother or father
Like son or daughter

bookmark_borderWill

What will we will?
Will we will nothing?
Ahh… but, to will nothing
Is to will something still

Sing!
Say you will
Say you will
Then, will it

To your credit
Will it
Needn’t say it
Feel a bit
Then,
Will it

Be it to will
Will it to be
Purely for thrill
Will ecstasy

It will be
Believe
We create
Reality
Negate *Me*
Will it to be
*Me* leave

Universally
Will it to be
Dramatically
No tragedy
Life is ecstasy

I really had been puzzled as to why this was being called a poor translation, as it seemed clear enough to me, but looking at the objections again, I think the assessment of it as an error derives from being over-constrained with the use of the English word “will” — using it only in the sense of “I will do it” — rather in the sense which here applies, which indicates the presence of “will” in relation to desires and determination as in the statement “I will it to be so.” ~ Kalki 17:46, 16 December 2007 (UTC) [In a reply about: “Große Drache” bit from Also Sprach Zarathustra. “ich will” means “I want”, not “I will”]

“WiLL iT TO BE, so, iT WiLL BE, and, SO iT iS ” (13) ~ Susan Lynne Schwenger

I will it to be so – English
Ich will es so – German
Voy a ser tan – Spanish
Je vais qu’il en soit ainsi – French

A / C / D

Both near and far
All the others
Always wanted to play
Allison’s guitar

Everyday
In every way
That’s all you would hear them say
“If I could only play…
Everything would be OK”

Ever since the very first day
All I wanted to do is play, play, play
Play with Allison’s guitar

All I do is hope and pray
Each and every… every day
Just want to play
With her guitar

Ever since the very first day
All they could say
Is how they want to play
With Allison’s guitar

I want to play with
Allison’s guitar
No matter how bizarre
Want to play with
Allison’s guitar

Intro:
She asked, “How did you learn to shift energy? Did you read up on it?”

Music
It’s kind-of a rhythm mix between Venus and Won’t Get Fooled Again.

Born With It

Em . . . . . . Am
That’s how it is
Em . . . . . . Am
When you’re born with it
That’s how it is
When you’re born with it

C . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Em
I fall to me knees and pray
C . . . . . . . . . . . Em
Thankful for every day
A hall to the free. Not prey
Thankful for everyday

Not sure that shift
Is the right word
More like the sun
Than the moon

I guess we’ll find out
And, way too soon….
And, way to soon….

More like the sun
Then the moon
A fusion
Not illusion
A space time
Rhyme

A fusion
Not illusion
No shadow
Will follow
