LYRICS
The cooks are in the kitchen
Smells like it won’t be too long
The scent gets me itchin’
For a savory holiday song

Takin’ a trip down memory lane
Do you want to remain
Or come along?

I feel that appetite
And, it’s coming on strong
Gonna try with all my might
Temptation don’t steer me wrong

(chorus)

What dish do you fancy
Something we have or you brought along
Maybe turkey with gravy
Dilute with moonshine… we all belong

(chorus)

From the heart
It’s coming through true
From the soul impart
The “thank you” you are do!

(chorus)

The House Sparrow

LYRICS
In the Berkshire Mountains
… no limit to what you can do
In the Berkshire Mountains
With ease you’ll gain the view
You can not afford not
Can you?

Do you think the bird’s heard the word?
A ballbusting nuthatch
Do you think that bird’s a lil’ absurd?
A ballbusting nuthatch

Watch! That’s no nuthatch
Some kind of King Pharaoh sparrow
Watch! That’s no nuthatch
In flight… out of the shadow

Your desires… living in the Berkshires

You can do what’s best to do in view
… of the Berkshires

LYRICS
Standing in the toilet
In the cesspool of life
A highly non-trivial affair
A vortex of love

Swimming in the vortex of love

To all the gypsy
Hypocrite hippie
Trying to take advantage of any age
Perplex flight of the dove

Swimming in the vortex of love

Swirling ever faster
Might float right past Her

Swimming in the vortex of love

LYRICS
If this all sounds too scary for you
Here’s what we can do
We can hold your hand
Help you understand
Be the supply for your demand

If this all sounds too eerie for you
Here’s what we can do
Go from this minor
Into a major
And make the world a little happier
