LYRICS
Busting out
Summertime rhyme
Finding out
’bout sweat and grime
Ohhhh it’s time
for the summertime rhyme
Sing and shout
Busting out

May I say
It’s too hot for May
Still I’ll play
Through the heat of day
It’s alright
IF it’s cool tonight
Feels just right
For music’s insight

bookmark_borderAll Dogs Go To Heaven

LYRICS
Wondering if it’s a given
All dogs go to heaven
Wondering what they’ll be sniffin’
Heard it smells in hell
But for heaven as well?
If you know the aroma, do tell

And their God you can not see
Her scent is a mystery
No sound for the ear to hear
Her scent escapes me
Certainly can’t touch much
Her scent is odor free
And your taste goes to waste
Her scent is a mystery

ABOUT THE SONG
A song about the dogma of dogma… does your god “exist”?

LYRICS
Is your world
Half empty
Is your world
Half full
Is your heart
Half empty
Is your heart
Half full
Mine’s got room to fulfill
Help me make it spill

Is your glass
Half empty
Is your glass
Half full
Optimistically
The optimist in me
I’ve got the view
The view is in you

Is your heart
Half empty
Is your heart
Half full
Fill the heart completely
Fill the heart until…
Mine’s got room to fulfill
Help me make it spill

bookmark_borderThe Last Thing She Said

LYRICS
What do you mean “we don’t have much time”?
The last thing she said to me is
“We don’t have much time”
When it comes to getting the message out
Don’t know how loud I can shout!
Wipe the grime from my voice
“We don’t have much time!”
But we’ve got choice
Adapt or be inept
In an adapt
In and adapt
Fast track
Be adapted to embedded?
Don’t let me… down
Don’t let me 6 feet down
You got me
Stymied
Stymie me’d

bookmark_borderHysteria Over Mania?

LYRICS
First
You bite the hand that feeds you
Then
You wonder wonder why
Next
In spite
The nose on your face
You cut and pry
Oh why
Hysteria over mania?
Depression: Die
Oh why
Diarrhea of the speech
For hate reach
Third
Still more absurd
You spew
You do
You spew
The word
Never to be heard

bookmark_borderParapraxis Is….

LYRICS
I forgot what I was going to say
Think it had something to do with today?

Trying to say
In a simple way
Tip of the tongue
Then, gone away

No regret if nothing’s said
Take it to the grave… subject dead
Wait! Don’t let me hesitate
’cause I hate “too late”
Dang! Forgot again
What a sin

Like I was going to say
Before it got away…
… I’m trying to say…
Parapraxis is

bookmark_borderUm… Momentum

LYRICS
Is it a matter of splatter
If the mass of ass
Is fatter?
Um
Momentum
I see velocity
Is not parity
When you factor in
My mass
Be it fact of fiction
God! More friction
I’m sliding into you
Are you sliding into me, too
Um, momentum
Got me some
Be it less rare
If I offer to share?
Do you care form some

… the language of baggage

bookmark_borderDowntime

LYRICS
Trying to find
If there’s piece of mind
In downtime
When nothing gets done
What’s to be won
What a crime
What do I have to lose?
The waste of time blues

Trying to find
If there’s reason or rhyme
In downtime
Productivity is a scarcity
Earn no dime

Trying to find
How to be kind
In downtime
If it’s all about me
It’s hard to see
Me, my, mine

bookmark_borderGoing Your Way

LYRICS
Has it been a long time coming
A steep road upon which you’re roaming

Does your day turn gray
Then slip away
Does it make you cry
Well’s run dry
Wells up your eye

Does your way go stray
Then slip away
Does it make you cry
Knowing you’ll die

Do you say “no way”
Then slip away
Does it make you cry
Never knowing why

Well they say your day
Goes your way
There’s no need to cry
Give’r a try
Giver try

bookmark_borderSurge Protector

LYRICS
Did you throw the breaker
Is the power on?
’cause you know
The wrong throw
Can be a heartbreaker
Bringing death’s dawn
Is the power on?
They say an itch the wrong way…
They say an inch the wrong way…
Can be a shocking experience
Feeling the essence of voltage
Does away with old age
High voltage
Are you sitting on the breaker thrown/throne
Thorned crown, dust and bone
