LYRICS
You have a mouth that’s a razor
Your words cut to the very core
You a real trail blazer
Never cease to amaze Her

Look, God! No hands
Or, maybe it’s that no one understands?

You have a tongue that’s a laser
Your words seeing what’s in store
You have the touch of a taser
Your love shocks the sinister

Chorus

You have the touch of a Taser
Your ideas shock the sinister
They don’t know what’s going on… for sure

LYRICS
When the sky turns shades of gray
From slate to goose
It’s time to say,
“Let mental nimbleness on the loose!”

Chorus
When there’s such a fine line
Between right and wrong
It’s time to find
A heartfelt love song

When the sky turns shades of gray
From goose to slate
It’s time to play
Role of the intelligent primate

LYRICS
If you’re having trouble finding a trace
Of humane in the human race
What’s you really need’s an embrace

Come to me
I will come to you
Put our arms around each other…
Put our arms around each other
For at least a minute or two

If you wish war would disarm
You feel the environment sound the alarm
What’s you really need’s to inarm

Be bold told enfold
Please give me a squeeze

If you’re having trouble finding a trace
Of humane in the human race
What’s you really need’s an embrace

LYRICS
Out of into phase
Daze and amaze
It’s in how you phrase
The truth of the charade
Parade!

Dancing in the rays
Dancing in the raise
These are the day
For dancing in the raise
Dancing in the ray’s raise

You move around
Swing your hips
As if to praise
You raise in the rays
Out of body bound
Astound!

Did I close my eyes
’cause I’m dreaming
Dreaming of you

LYRICS

Where did the love go?

Though all the promises
Rings and roses
Where did the love go?
With all the missed kisses
We’re building bridges
Where did the love go?

Throughout all of time
Goodness shall outshine
Instead of me and mine
We’re in the hour of our
In the era of our
Era of our hour
Our era hour

Where did the love go? (Right here!)

Though all the promises
Rings and roses
Where did the love go? (It’s right here!)
With all the missed kisses
We’re building bridges
Where did the love go? (It’s right here!)

Where did the love go?
Right here.

LYRICS
Do you remember?

Climbing on my shoulders
Riding on my back
Kissing by the boulders
Sitting on my lap

Hiking on the hill
We made a bet for fun
But, before you could fulfill
Your life’s undone

Looking down from heaven
Do you remember?
Do you remember… living in days like these

With God’s grace given
I do remember.
I do remember… the memories please

Hiking on the hill
We made a bet for fun
But, before you could fulfill
Your life’s undone

Here we are holding hands
Who would ever understand?
That you could fulfill
That someday you will fulfill
That this day you can still fulfill

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — G Em
G Am D G

Written in Chester County, Pennsylvania and captured as a digital, stereo, extemporaneous recording. Demo MP3 is 1 track. Video is 6-tracks.

This song was inspired by one of my first girlfriends, Janet Welch of Clearfield, Pennsylvania. I sat down to write a song about Valentine’s Day and just started playing about love. This is what came out.

We were in high school… passing notes and falling in love. We made what I considered a great bet. She lost the bet; however, before she could fulfill her end of the bargain, she died in a car crash. Does a spirit live on?

There you are
Aren’t we standing just a little too far
Apart

Getting Closer

Gaining closure

Here I can
You can, too
Shouldn’t we do all we can do?

The seasons are changing
And, so are you
But, that doesn’t mean
Compromising your point-of-view

The energy you project

Right is right
Throughout the nights
And, always all the days

You can part
When you’re glowing in the heart

You can part any sea
Turn water to wine
Create a feast for the hungry to dine

When you’re glowing in the heart
The hearts you’ll start
When you’re glowing in the dark

Emotional smarts
Spiritual larks
Take flight

LYRICS
I was…
Naked. Tied-up.
Bound and gagged
In the back of your mother’s station wagon
Hang-on
Lights are flashing
The spot light is on
Officer says, “What’s going on?”

Now, you’ve changed
How you’ve changed
Your mind rearranged
(You’re) estranged

Oh, no
She went psycho
Joined the Puritan Police
Now, I need a release

Oh, let my daughter go
’cause you know
You went psycho

You use to be some fun
But, now
People run!

You ain’t no superhero
With that super, super ego
No. No. No.

Janet, try your switch
’cause less is on

LYRICS
If you have a care for me
I will have a care for you
Together we can see it through
Weather it through any sea

I must have a care for you
It’s the very least to do
Thank you for helping me to see

Ate compassionate for breakfast
Gotta hunch I’ll have it for lunch
Can you stop by before the supper that’s last?

Feel deep before we’re past

Dive deep into your heart
And, part the see

If You Give A Care.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
C / F / E

Written and recorded August 25, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

It’s about love reciprocity. The album name “Natural Producer” has to do with the engineering and production of the music. Since the music is hoped to be *God Inspired*, names like deity, spirit, divinity, supernatural being and idol producer came to mind; however, that sounded too vain. So, what am I compared to the Supernatural Being Producer?

LYRICS
Transposing letters to numbers
Transposing the numbers into my name
While intelligence slumbers
It’s turned into a mental game

Don’t give up
Half empty or half full is your cup?
Don’t give up

When they try to give you the run-around
You know the answer can be found
No matter the resistance
Win them over with persistence
Don’t give up

Put you on hold ’till you grow mold
Ask you to please, please, please wait
Nooooo… don’t drop the line yet another time
We shall overcome without hate

Don’t give up
Half empty or half full is your cup?
Don’t give up

Written and recorded on August 22, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. It is based on studies that show positive thinking leads to a positive outcome:

Positive thinking: Reduce stress by eliminating negative self-talk
Positive thinking helps with stress management and can even improve your health.
By Mayo Clinic staff

Is your glass half-empty or half-full? How you answer this age-old question about positive thinking may reflect your outlook on life, your attitude toward yourself, and whether you’re optimistic or pessimistic — and it may even affect your health.

Indeed, some studies show that personality traits like optimism and pessimism can affect many areas of your health and well-being. The positive thinking that typically comes with optimism is a key part of effective stress management. And effective stress management is associated with many health benefits. If you tend to be pessimistic, don’t despair — you can learn positive thinking skills.

Written and recorded August 22, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. It is based on a quote from the Book Of Daniel:

Daniel 12

New International Version (NIV)
The End Times

12 “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book —will be delivered. 2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. 4 But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.”
