The Pursuit Of Happiness

The Pursuit Of Happiness Music Video.mp4

LYRICS
Could it be that all my life
I’ve been waiting for you?
What was I thinking… a wife?
If I only knew I had you to purse

But, I digress….

The pursuit of happiness
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

Enough suspense….

It’s my declaration of independence
The wondrous pursuit of happiness

Unalienable right, right?

What’s the story
Sounds contradictory…
To fight for peace
But, I gotta have a piece

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

LYRICS
Is your thumb stuck up your….
But,
You didn’t know
You have to let go
Is your hand stuck in the cookie jar
What,
You didn’t know
Ya gotta let go

Because sometimes
Freedom chimes
Because sometimes
Freedom rhymes
Can set you free
Let you be
Help you to see
Certainly
Certainty

LYRICS
The teeth of the saw
Chew through
The eye-of-a-needle
Sees you
Hey, Ma and Pa
Am I just feeble?

It’s time to come clean
There’s a man in the machine

The mouth of the river
Flows foul
The arm of the law
Isn’t just
Justice turned to lust
Makes ya shiver

It’s time to come clean
There’s a man in the machine

LYRICS
I wonder
Where do all the lives go
When you die
Where do all the lives go
Do you know?

Clap of thunder
In the blink of an eye
There’ll be no more I
Where does the life go
Do you know?

I sure pray this sole soul
Lands in the promised land
A promise is a promise
How can you miss?

Like the sun behind the clouds
The love we know will break through
Unveil the shrouds
Let the love do what love can do

Like the reef at low tide
The love we know will break through

Let the love do what love can do

Ride, ride, ride
The wave
Let love behave

LYRICS
Instead of trying the upward claw
Why not spread your wings and soar
The Lord means the law
What’s your destination for?

Is it more, more, more
What’s your destination for?
Is it chore, chore, chore
What’s your destination for?
Is it love and lore

Instead of keeping up with the Jones
Why not free yourself of chains
Before there’s just dust of your bones
Take advantage of the time that remains

Give more, more, more
What’s your destination for?
You’re not gonna believe what’s in store
What’s your destination for?
Gonna love this lore

lure of love
love allure
Love the lore

LYRICS
From the first time I laid mind on you
I knew the epiphany was true
Then, it was plain and simple as to what to do

What to do
Keep my mind on you

One with you
Won with you

The third eye cast out a glance
On the essence of romance
Starting in essence an adrenaline dance
Heart struck with cupid’s lance

LYRICS
Couldn’t wait to get down
Make the sound
In my blood,
Plus what’s around
Turn it into sound
Wash n’ over you
Like a flash flood

Nature versus nurture
Turn a sonic future
Into hear here
Here and now
A now know flow
Here we go

Extreme.mp3

LYRICS
The scene I’m seeing — extreme
Obscene… we’d let it get to this point
Whose regret… the point of no return

Polar vortex hex on the East
Brave the heat wave on the West
At least…
Someone suggest, “Try our best!”

From what I’ve seen — extreme
I mean… talk about a butt joint
Someone shout, “Before the edge, turn!”

ABOUT THIS SONG
This song is about extreme weather events and human induced climate change. The day it was written and recorded the East and West coasts of the USA where acting bi-polar. The East was getting hammered with a snowstorm and polar vortex… while the West was on fire in a heat wave.

Chords — Em Em7

Bumbles Bounce.mp3

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
Chords — F# / G

Daniel — Vocals, Guitar, Synthesizers (All instruments played simultaneously and extemporaneously.)

“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.

From the album Miss Christmas and part of the on-going Christmas Music Experiment.
