LYRICS
Are you feeling lucky?

Take a look around and see
Starvation, humiliation, degradation…
Are you feeling lucky?

Take a look and see
How would you like to be
Running, hiding, the bombs cascading
Starving and dying while the world’s watching
Are you feeling lucky?

Climb the tallest tree
And, see what you can see
Segregation, homogenization, elimination
Of privacy
Are you feeling lucky?

LYRICS
Nothing like a smile
Lifts ya up a mile
Put the wind in sail
Never settle to fail

No matter the tribulation
No matter the trial
We’re gaining the satisfaction
With humanitarian style

When the storm clouds come
And darken it for you
You know the light — The Light
Is gonna shine on through

ABOUT THIS SONG

D A G A G D

This song was inspired by good cops and bad cops. After dealing with some bad police in Doylestown, PA, I had the pleasure of dealing with some good police in West Chester, PA. While writing this song two different West Chester police went out of their way to be kind. The one with the big smile and wave started the lyrics.

LYRICS
Praying for a miracle
Pray n’ pray n’ pray
All day

During the night dream
Of a more peaceful scene

Saying, “Is that Neil Young?”
Say hey say hey my my
Say hey
All day

During the fright scream
For a more peaceful scene

LYRICS
If the dog bites
You can lick ’em
When the system fights
Try n’ be a gem

No matter the outcome
We can overcome

If they try to bring you down
Turn you into their clown
Twist you smile to a frown
Time they get out of town

If the pig slights
You can cook ’em
When it comes to rights
Let there be no qualm

No matter the outcome
We can overcome

If they try to bring you down
Turn you into their clown
Twist you smile to a frown
Time they get out of town

LYRICS
Though I might look unproductive
Playing music on the bench
Maybe too tight… restrictive
… becoming your monkey wrench

I could be the wrench in the works
Screwing with all the little quirks

Look into the crystal ball
See what we could do for all
Depends if we have the balls
Or just their voodoo dolls

LYRICS
Put your ear
On the rail
And, you’ll hear it coming

Oh, my, Lord
Goodness gracious
The people I’ve seen… the places
Never board
Red faces

Put your ear to the track
And, in fact
You’ll hear it coming
Clickety-clack

See it coming ’round the bend
Passing through
And headed to
The Promised Land

While trying to write this song, a couple dozen musicians happened to walk by… stop… and play along. Eventually, I mentioned that after four hours there still weren’t any lyrics. That’s when someone said, “that’s a good problem.”

Just ’cause I’m sitting here like it’s my home
Doesn’t mean I want you to leave me alone
Come knockin’

Stop over and say “hi”
If you wanna say the music is good
Then, definitely you should

There’s some weird ass dudes in Phoenixville
Don’t get me wrong…
That’s why I’m writing this song
Love’s why I wrote this song
Ode to a place… where eccentricity gets along

Hey, man
What’s wrong with your face?
Oh… so sorry
I feel a disgrace
Feel so unkind now I see you’re blind

Hey, lady
What’s up with the cane
Oh… so sorry
I feel lame and shame
Now, I feel your pain

Hey, mirror
What’s wrong with your heart
Oh… so sorry
I feel terror
Need to lead with love… right from the start

Delayed Reaction .MP3

LYRICS
Is there a delayed response
To what we hear
A delayed response
To what they say
No action
No reaction
For the action

As complicated
As we have made it become
Now, we just sit here
Glassy-eyed and numb

Is there a delayed reaction
To what they say
Is there a delayed reaction
To what we hear
Instead of just shutting down
Out of fear
I say we rally
And, cheer

As a group project
We can eject
A powerfulness
That might help correct
This mess

ABOUT
This song is about societies response to announcements such as this: “EPA: Greenhouse Gases Threaten Public Health and the Environment”

Now, that
Took me by surprise
How about you?
Wow! That
Took me by surprise
Impromptu

I get
A new pair of shoes
Probably
The ones you lose
But, they
Sure help
This dancing muse

All those
Lights are flashing
A K-9 unit, too?
That blows
The crowd dashing
To get out of view

The truck
Pulling out
The truck
Gets stuck
In the mud
The jerk offs
Pulling their pud
Wanna be called
Office-sir

While life
Goes by
In a blur

ABOUT THIS SONG
It was my birthday. Because of prior obligations, I did not think I would be free. At the last minute, the situation changed. So, we had a surprise party. As it was Halloween, we took are party on the road and ended up at another costume party.

It was raining hard. Cars got stuck in the mud. A friend of mine was dressed up like an Asian Santa Clause. The mud was so deep she took off her shoes and handed them to me. While I was walking around holding them, a caravan of police vehicles arrived. The crowd scattered.

The next day on FaceBook I wrote:
Now THAT was a surprise party… not sure who was surprised more… me or you?

And, the friend wrote:
Where the heck did you go last night!? haha i was hiding in the car from the cops for an hour and then you were gone :o( buuuut it was fun glad you came out and hope you had an awesome birthday.. ps do you have asian santas shoes? lol

To which I replied:
Ha… I thought the shoes were my birthday present from Santa? By the way, you inspired a new song.
