bookmark_borderSinker, Line, and Hook

LYRICS
Wait! What?
What will they think of next
Perplexed
With a puzzled look
Sinker, line, and hook
Take the bait… or sit and wait?
In fact,
Backtrack
Thrown off the trail
Off the rail
Improved thinker
Hook, line, and sinker

Losing my count
Losing my place in line
Tensions will mount
Crossing that ‘ole fine line

My place on the old time
Line
Let’s see
1, 2, 3

LYRICS
Don’t feel bad your egg cracked
Now, you are free to fly
Nothing holding you back
Now, is the time to try
Spread your wings
Soar
Spread them wide
Fly high
Spread your wings
A little more

Don’t you think it would be best
If you up and left the nest
Though I am sad to see you go
In my heart I’ll always know
Spread your wings
Soar
Spread them wide
Fly high
Spread your wings
A little more

All the pain and agony
Just gets up and goes
Feeling so much better

Good times are here to stay
Happier than ever before
Evermore

LYRICS
Out of the bog
Beyond the fog
Going backwards as the future rolls by
Not sure why
The numb and dumb within

Is was

Back from where what was
Because
I can feel
For real
I can feel

bookmark_borderThe Show Must Go On!

LYRICS
No, this show doesn’t end
Yes, it always begins
What you get out, you put in
Often starts with the gift
Of your heart

You can sin. You can dance.
Raise your voice. It’s your choice.
In and out. Move about.
Up and down. Move around.

You know this show’s just startin’
Getting ready to begin
What you get out, you put in
Often starts with the gift
Of your heart

You can sin. You can dance.
Raise your voice. It’s your choice.
In and out. Move about.
Up and down. Move around.

Your show at the show startin’ to show
With a skip, hop, n’ $hit eatin’ grin
What you get out, you put in
Often starts with the gift
Of your heart

You can sin. You can dance.
Raise your voice. It’s your choice.
In and out. Move about.
Up and down. Move around.

One and one equals two
Count on me. It is true.

LYRICS
The skies are starting to clear
No more fear
Time for times to hold dear
Hear here, here
We have now derived
We’ve arrived
We have all survived

To the rear
The future’s growing near
Peer-to-peer
We have now derived
We’ve arrived
We have all survived
We’re alive!

LYRICS
The wit would spit
Right out of my mouth
Into instant
Deep $hit
Talking thick
Then, into the thick of it!
Up to your…
What the heck
Up to your neck
’cause of a quick wit
Perplex the dimwit
To my own detriment
A little too smart
Just a little too smart
With all that science and art
Too deeeeeep….

Back to begin
Get the run on a roll
Crowd is singin’
Onward! To our Goal!
