LYRICS
Fool me one time
Fool me two times
Fool me three times and I’ll have to think twice
* I’m starting to think
That won’t happen tonight
(If that’s alright?)
Fool me one time
Fool me two times
Fool me three times and I’ll have to think twice
*
Fool me one time
Fool me twice
And I’m done throwing dice
*
Fool me one time
Then do it again
It’s time for foreboding to begin
… just a warning… the dog does bite

ABOUT THIS SONG

Based on a conversations about contrails. Clouds are clouds. They are made of H2O / water. That is it. When air passes through jet engines, it creates linear clouds. There are no added chemicals… for that is not possible.

I got my big feet in the window, and my head down on the ground
Let me down, and close that box car door
Yes, let me down, and close that box car door
Well, I'm goin' back to Chattanooga,

Down down down down down
I've got my big feet on the ground
Oh

Down down down down down

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
If the words don’t come right to me
Guess I’ll just have to see
What’ll be
Children of the sun
Coming out to have some fun
When children start dancing merrily
Guess I’m considered
Lucky
Children of the sun
Coming out to have some fun
Last thing I remember, I was writing a song
Then you came along… the smile on your face lit up the place
Now I forget what is going on
Ohhhhhh, la, la, la
Ohhhhhh, yeah
Children of the sun
Coming out to have some fun
Writing and Recording “Children Of The Sun”
ABOUT THIS SONG
This song was written while sitting on the corner of High and Market Streets in West Chester, PA. It was the first nice day of Spring, so I wanted to get out in the sun. I didn’t have lyrics in mind. Instead, I looked around. Here is what I found.
