LYRICS
If you spit out the sour milk
And anything of that ilk
If you throw-up from contempt
Bend away from hellbent

Chorus
And you see
What can be
We’re free
We’ve the key

If you flinch from the mere thought
Of getting another swat
It’s a cinch doing our part
We’ll rule from the heart

Chorus

LYRICS
My Grandma and your Grandma
Are sitting by the fire
Wondering why we don’t fan the flames higher
(… just a little higher)

And I pride myself on not being too proud
Not to quite and not too loud

My Grandpa and your Grandma
Are sitting ever higher
Wondering why we don’t and aspire
(… just a little higher)

And I try myself to be the best I can
A likeness to a human

The Bucks County Blues

Posted on September 29, 2014 by admin

LYRICS
Sorry to say…
The documents are based on falsified information
Ya know, falsified info.
Whoa! Falsified info.
Does that blow?

Chorus
How could this be
The Judge and the District Attorney
In a conspiracy
Oh! The hypocrisy

(That’s it! A hypocrite)

Knock me out of my socks
You can’t just alter the docs
… can’t just alter the docs

Ahhhh… Urgh… Ooooo nooooo

Chorus

The police won’t cease breaking the law
Talk about your shock and awe
Talk about your shock and awe

Chorus

It’s hard to chill
When they’re trying to kill

The New Song

Posted on September 4, 2014 by admin

LYRICS
Can I think up something original
Think a thought that’s not been thought
Not being retentive in the anal
In deep outside the box is sought

A clever little endeavor
A brilliance shower
In the genre of genius
May the meek empower

Can I think up something new
The first to hear an idea
Is to own a thought something I can do
Can I put my brain into gear

Song Writing and Recording in Schuylkill County, PA

LYRICS
The bound comes unwound
Through the rhythm of sound
Discover what can be found
When you listen around

The irony of a harmony
In nature’s symphony
Elation of penetration
When the ear gets to hear

The penetration of meditation
Is music to my ears
The satisfaction from jubilation
Gives rise to heartfelt cheers

Sound sound advice
For you listening device
For sure…
Sound sound advice
For your listening pleasure

LYRICS
Goin’ down Market Street
All the high-heeled feet
Shufflin’ to the beat
On Market Street

As they pass by
Headed toward High
Leg out a sigh
Crier for the choir
Hearing angels sing
As the bells ring
Well, here’s the thing
… it’s heaven on Earth
Re-birth

LYRICS
Cupid’s lance
Spear it (Feel it?)
Through the heart

Piercing glance
Spear it (Feel it?)
Through the heart

When the spirit spears it
You will know you’re in the flow

Cupid’s dart
Spear it (Feel it?)
Through the heart

Like a jolt
Spear it (Feel it?)
Feel it start?

When the spirit spears it
You will know you’re in the flow

LYRICS
Purveyors of love
Purveyors of love
When you get right down to it
A) human conduit
Be) a conduit
See) a conduit

It’s as easy as A, Be, See

When I is you
We let it pass through
With the least resistance, too
You want to keep a few?
Let it pass through
Might as well let
The more you give
Be the more you get

Songwriting and Recording at Brubaker Park in Lancaster County, PA

LYRICS
Do you wonder if it’s too late now
Are you gonna save us somehow
… anyhow… somehow… anyway
Please say you’ll save the day
“Children go on… it’s safe to play”?

Did I miss the final curtain call
Is it over in the all-in-all
Please say we’ll have our say
Tomorrow will follow today

Do you wonder is there time to wonder
Did we stray too far off when we wander
Please shout out, “Hey, hey, hey!”
We’ll all live to see the day

LYRICS
Near the eye of the eddy
Where upstream is down
Gettin’ a little heady
In a spiritual realm

Near the eye of the eddy
Jewel of the Queen’s crown
Way more than ready
With Her at the helm

Spinning round n’ round
Twirling round n’ round
Spiraling round n’ round

Start To Stop Your Heart

Posted on August 14, 2014August 14, 2014 by admin

LYRICS
I’m wondering (I wonder) how hard
Is the cement really that thick?
I wonder (I’m wondering) how hard
If I’m going to dive through…
… is there a trick

Chorus
A circle of angels singing ’round your head
When the jumper jumps, he makes his own bed
You know it’s really, really gonna smart
Right before you start to stop your heart

Should I go head first
To minimize the pain
Should I go feet first
With or agin’ the grain?

Chorus

Start To Stop Your Heart.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG

Washed Away

Posted on August 14, 2014August 14, 2014 by admin

LYRICS
Feeling like a black cloud is hovering?
Well if it keeps on raining….

It’s raining. It’s pouring. Hit his head… now, he’s dead.
Couldn’t get up in the mourning.

The rain spills upon the hill
Runnin’ down, down, down
Runnin’ still… runnin’ ’till fill
Wash the black cloud frown
Away

Flashflood
The day you wash away
Flesh n’ blood
The day you wash away

Gonna fill
To the high water mark
Run until
… the high water mark

on a lark, embark

Your Tip

Posted on August 5, 2014 by admin

LYRICS
When you offer me money
Chips, tokens… any sort-of tips
A silent trust is spoken
Awoken, I come to grips

If by chance you get a glance
But can not hear the solution
The notion in the motion
Moves beyond circumstance

A mile of traffic with a smile
Children in the backseat keepin’ the beat
Big dogs and little dogs taking masters for jogs
The little jig and the big dance…
A musical romance

Thank You Please Accept Your Tip.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — B7 E E+c#
A E

Written and recorded in West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania. It is about people that feel compelled to offer money when they hear music being played.
