LYRICS
When I hear you say
“Sure picked a nice day”
Forget it
Can’t take the credit
Get to play in nature’s way

Say it twice
The weather’s nice
The weather’s nice
… get to say it twice

Slice the pie any way
It’s a beautiful day
Get at it
Or you’ll regret it
Come outside and play

Say it twice
The weather’s nice
The weather’s nice
… get to say it twice

When you see the sky is blue
What are you going to do?

LYRICS
So… this is love
This is love

I’ve been waiting all my life
Tried the wife but only strife
Cuts like a knife
But, this is love

Before I get to old
Come in from the cold
And, feel the warmth of love

In demand
I’m the hand
She’s the glove
This is love

LYRICS
If you blink
Before you think
It’s too late
… horse is outta the gate

Chorus
It won’t be easy catchin’
Let alone trying to fetch ’em
‘ell if ya can’t
Drag a dead elephant

If you pause
Gonna expose your flaws
Give you cause
As to nature’s laws

Chorus

You can lead a horse to water
But you can’t make him drink
You can teach your sister and brother
But you can’t make them think

Are we coming to life
Out of the fate
Of an animated state

In the shape of an ape

LYRICS
What is your sign
What is mine
Peace sign, thumbs-up and smile for a while
(Yes, signs of happiness)

Universally fine
Always a sweet treat
Ripe on the vine
Most precious is time

What is your sign
What is mine
Singing and dancing
Sharing the wine
(Spank it! Crank it!)

A song about a lady giving me the thumbs-up and a big smile while I was writing a song about adding the 13th zodiac sign “Ophiuchus”.

According to NASA, the Earth’s axis has changed over the 3,000 years since the zodiac was invented. As a result, the constellations over which the sun appears to move over have shifted.

NASA stated, “But even according to the Babylonians’ own ancient stories, there were 13 constellations in the zodiac.”

The 13th constellation is Ophiuchus.

Ophiuchus (⛎) (/ɒfiˈjuːkəs/) has sometimes been used in sidereal astrology as a thirteenth sign in addition to the twelve signs of the tropical Zodiac, because the eponymous constellation Ophiuchus (Greek: Ὀφιοῦχος “Serpent-bearer”) as defined by the 1930 IAU constellation boundaries is situated behind the sun from November 30 to December 18. — Wikipedia

LYRICS
First ya think it’ll never
Then it comes together
Determination for soul-ution
First ya think it’ll never
Then it comes together
Eradication of pollution

What the heck
Better hit the deck
It’s a war zone
911 on the phone
Still, he won’t leave me alone
The lights are on but no one’ home

Thorn in lion’s paw
Mouse takes out in awe
Determination of solution
First ya think it’ll never
Then it comes together
Determination for soul-ution

Just as well
Damned to hell
Now the scene
We shall clean
Sooner or later everything passes
Even for the biggest asses

What if everywhere there was love
Looked below… looked above
You know when you look low
Sigh… when you look high

Then again, to the right
Is quite alright

What if everywhere there was love
When you look below… when you look above

LYRICS
The fallacy of their bureaucracy
Is embedded in their head
The fallacy of their bureaucracy
Is headed where we dread
In fact, it’s quite frightening
Getting struck twice by lightning
(The hypocrisy of the bureaucracy)

The fallacy of their bureaucracy
Rains reign on our head
The fallacy of their bureaucracy
Reigns the arts are dead
In fact, it’s quite frightening
Getting struck twice by lightning
(The hypocrisy of the bureaucracy)

The fallacy of their bureaucracy
Don’t let it be spoon-fed
The fallacy of their bureaucracy
Should be eliminated instead
The hypocrisy of the bureaucracy
The fallacy of their democracy
The hypocrisy of the bureaucracy
The hypocrisy of their democracy
The fallacy of their bureaucracy
The hypocrisy of the bureaucracy

Spite your face
Do you assume and suppose
Deserved space?

LYRICS
The secret
Is their dirty habit —
They’ll never admit
They did it

As I watch their eye
Watching me…
It’s pretty darn easy
For you to see

Their bond of conspiracy
Is troubling… deeply
An eye for an eye
Or lie upon lie

Their command of literacy
Is lacking… completely
Unless their heresy
Is based on hypocrisy

LYRICS
The people’s feet
Hitting the street
We’re in for a real treat
Fan interaction
To the soul’s satisfaction

The people fade
Into a parade
The crowd sings out loud
With loving affection
To the soul’s satisfaction

A two-year-old
Gives his two cents
Showin’ the old
How to be gents
Fan appreciation
To the soul’s satisfaction

When the Music Hits the Fan.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Style: Freedom Folk Rock

Recording: live

Vocals, Guitar

Written at the corners of Gay and Church Streets and High and Market Streets. Recorded in Chester County, West Chester, PA.

This is a song about the music lovers in West Chester. While I was writing a song about appreciating the fans, a two-year-old walked over to me. He reached into his pocket and gave me two shiny pennies. Later in the day, a lady came up to me and said, “You are a staple of the community. I love driving into my town and hearing you.”

Thank you!
