What a lucky lad
When you look back
At all you had
What a lucky lad
Chorus
And, they all join in
With the words you’ve given
Make them sing and shout
Get the words out
I suppose
When it comes to prose
Nothing you lack
Please give a dose
… a word attack

Forgot who we really our

Keep going still…
Just past the Roost… Until
You get a Stage Trip that’ll fulfill

This is the way to play
Play, play all day
Light the night

Dance away

And, if there is something troubling you
This is what you do
Grab my hand and jump about
Sure enough, you’ll find out
Understand?

For today we call it play

Follow the fault line
Where does it lead?
Is it yours
Is it mine
Follow back
To the beginning of time
Follow the fault line
And, where does it lead
Right here
To the land of greed
What is it we’re trying to make
A giant quake to obliterate the meek
Seek the source of the fault line

A little drop of light
Had the might
To creep and peep
Through the shadows of a cloud
And, shine a drop on me
Like angels singing aloud
Liquid sunshine
Makes ya feel feel fine
A little drop of light
Feels alright
Liquid sunshine
Divine

What shall we do
On such a rainy day
Do you want to
Come over and play?
I’ve got a studio
Oh, oh, oh
For you and I,
I, i, i
You can plug right in
And, begin
To play
For the rest of the day
What shall we do
On such a rainy day
Do you want to
Come over and play?

A song inspired by this conversation….
Daniel Brouse asked Edie Weinstein:
What do you think?
Edie Weinstein replied:
About what?
Daniel Brouse responded:
Ha! The world?
Edie Weinstein shines the light:
I think it is a place of divine delight in which we get to create our own vision and live it out. I think we are each responsible for healing it and illuminating the dark places. I love being here. OR were you looking for an answer a bit more mundane? ?
Daniel Brouse:
Perfect! Too bad more people don’t know… heaven is here.
LYRICS
Imagine this…
While having conversation
With Miss Bliss
Somehow we
Miss the bliss
… miss the realization
We’re soakin’ in
Happiness
Heaven on Earth
From our most
Recent birth
No lyin’
We’ve reached Zion
The Promised Land
In our hand
If we could…
But only
Understand

Humans
Create fate
Humans
Create dates
Human’s fate
Set their date
At any rate
There’s no debate
Our state…
Irate
We’ve gone mad
Off our rocker
All more than a tad
Beyond rational
Create hate?
Participate
Via voyeur
Then begin
The citizen
If we fall folly
To our
Un-natural nation
The gravity
Of no passivity
Leaves no pity
Create hate?
Participate
Via voyeur
Or, didn’t we know
Or, didn’t we NO
For us it is
A dismal prognosis
DOA RIP
Pray love gets the best of me.
Raise The Dead by The Snake Handling Immortal tongue Speakers
Intro:
Bugle starts off playing Taps
While guitarist *taps* the guitar
You’re gonna raise the dead
Playing music like that
She said,
“This song’s ’bout my son”
I meant no disrespect
I heard what you said
“My son is dead”
“At that time…
… of trouble
Your people
Shall be delivered.
And many of those who sleep
In the dust of the earth
Shall awake.”
Raise the dead
May my spirit
Raise the dead
I can hear it
Raise the dead
Not just inside my head
May we shine
The brightness of the firmament
May we shine
The brightness of the fulfillment
She said,
“That’s my girl
I don’t know who you are
But, you better be special”
You said,
“That’s Daniel.”
[spoken word to bugle and Krista tapping… add pagpipe interweave Amazing Grace ]
“Those who are wise shall shine
Like the brightness of the firmament,
And those who turn many to righteousness
Like the stars forever and ever.”
And many of those who sleep
In the dust of the earth
Shall awake.”
[end spoken word]
Raise the dead
May my spirit
Raise the dead
I can hear it
Raise the dead
Not just inside my head
May we shine
The brightness of the firmament
May we shine
The brightness of the fulfillment
At this time
Your people
Shall be delivered.

A lil’ bird
Flew up to my window
As I was speeding
On my way
Oh, I dunno why
In such a rush
Not stopping
To smell
The roses
On the way
There
And, then
That day
I could see happiness
Will always
Find a way
Fly
Love will fly there
Fly
Feel like ya wanna die
Fly
Will lift you up
Lost hope… wanna sigh?
Fly
You know Roe?
FLY

Sherri Lee
You tempt me
With all that’s good
We could
Sing
We could
Dance
We could do
Most anything
With your power of touch
There ain’t much
Left to chance
You’re not a matter
Of good luck
You’re plain good
When it comes to average
Or extra ordinary
I take the stance —
You’re the latter
(more to come… went from writing this*outside* in my car
to writing *inside* the comfort of the studio as it relates to Sherri Lee being energy out in the world and Sherri Lee making people feel comfortable… warm within)
Sherri
Lee
Certainly
Brings….
All the while,
She’ll gladly do it with a smile
Sherri
Lee
Certainly
Brings
Many good things
By Daniel Brouse · Tuesday, November 23, 2010
Got things to do?
Do you?
You do.
Ooooooo… come and play
For a brief bit
Forget
The trivial
Let’s get real
This day
Feeeeeeeeel
Cover Version of
BANG THE DRUM ALL DAY
originally made famous by Todd Rundgren
cover version is simply a Mess
I don’t want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day
I don’t want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day
Ever since I was a tiny boy
I don’t want no candy
I don’t need no toy
I took a stick and an old coffee can
I bang on that thing ’til I got
Blisters on my hand
because… chorus
When I get older they think I’m a fool
The teacher told me I should stay after school
She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
But my licks was so hot
I made the teacher wanna dance
And that’s why… chorus
Listen to this
Every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated
The boss is a jerk
And I get my sticks and go out to the shed
And I pound on that drum like it was the boss’s head
Because… chorus
I can bang that drum
Hey, you wanna take a bang at it?
I can do this all day
