Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Orbit
Closest star
Won’t quit
Let’s go far
Turning tears into years

Baby
Star’s moving
Maybe
Revolving
Leaving fears in arrears

Baby
Can’t you see
Surely
Galaxy
Our years are in gears

A song about seeing the James Webb Space Telescope images and realizing the sun is moving through space… along with our whole galaxy.

LYRICS
Filled it before
Fill it some more
You haven’t changed your way
To and including this day
Until you have no voice
’cause to chance you left choice

Exploited before
Exploit it some more
I haven’t changed my way
To and including this day
Until I have no voice
Having left chance you left choice

Used it before
Use it some more
We haven’t changed our way
To and including this day
So now we have no voice
We left our chance to choice

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
IN your mind’s eye
DO you see a sea
Do you see a shimmering sea
From see to shining see
As you fly
You fly high
Through the sky

In your mind’s eye
Can you hear what’s going on here
Do you hold dear what is near
As you wave good-bye
As you fly
You fly high
Through the sky

In your mind’s eye
Can you touch much of a feel
Is the sign unsealed for real
You’re your mind’s I
As you fly
You fly high
Through the sky

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Think that we could
Go any faster
Knock on would
Might out last her
The changing of the seasons
For all the wrong reasons
Rearranging
Till unchanging
Sole sol in the hottest
Did away with all the rest
(Did away with the rest
Stuck with just the hottest)

Think that we should
Try n’ out last her
Knock on would
Avoidin’ disaster
(Our disaster)
The changing of the seasons
For all the wrong reasons
Rearranging
Till unchanging
Sole sol
Sole soul
Sole sol
El sol in the hottest
Did away with all the rest
(Did away with the rest
Stuck with just the hottest)

bookmark_borderA Shout Out

Posted on by admin

Song of the day is about a quote I heard a scientist say, “Politicians are fighting a war against physics. You can’t win a war against physics.”

LYRICS
I’d like to give a shout out
… a shout out to the drought
Since you’re so hot
Why not
Shout out
And a shout out to the rain
The rains that still remain
The reign of rain
Till flood
Boils blood
How about a shout out to the wind
Ferocious wind won’t rescind
Blowin’ in the wind
No sirs
Answer

bookmark_borderThe Sting

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
From the front end
To the backstop
Forget amend
Can’t stop the clock
Holding back won’t matter
It won’t stop the sting
Watch as the brains scatter
Missing everything

From the upside
To the get-down
We will reside
Make it our own
Holding back won’t matter
It won’t stop the sting
Watch as the brains scatter
Missing everything

From the side way
To the high way
There is no way
In the low way
Holding back won’t matter
It won’t stop the sting
Watch as the brains scatter
Missing everything

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Building a bridge of dreams
Sowing up the seams
Building a bridge of dreams
So-ing up the seems
Focus on the rest of us
There’s not much to discuss
The dreams that are best
Include the rest

Climbing a mountain of dreams
Sowing up the seams
Climbing a mountain of dreams
So-ing up the seems
Focus on the rest of us
There’s not much to discuss
The dreams that are best
Include the rest

Weaving a web of dreams
Sowing up the seams
Weaving a web of dreams
So-ing up the seems
Focus on the rest of us
There’s not much to discuss
The dreams that are best
Include the rest

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Half-past seven in the evening
Glimpse of heaven is revealing
Under the rising moon
Into reprising tune

Half-past eight time won’t wait
(Reprieving, reprieving)
Nine and ten then getting late
(Reprieving, reprieving)
Under the shining moon
Continue reprising tune

Half-past eleven deep in the night
Glimpse of heaven… I see the light
Under mesmerizing moon
The antithesis of noon

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Come to understand
If I only had a plan
Hope to check it off my bucket list
At least that’s my wish
(Before I kick the bucket…
List)
Come to understand
If I only had a plan
Got a plan, check?
Not yet
Probably should?
You bet
I could
I would
Regret
Come to understand
If I only had a plan
Hope to check it off my bucket list
At least that’s my wish
(Before I kick the bucket…
List)
Got a plan
Plan for I’m
And plan for Man
Hope to check it off my bucket list
At least that’s my wish
(Before I kick the bucket…
List)
Come to understand
If I only had a plan
I’d be in command
Man, if I only had a plan
Hope to check it off my bucket list
At least that’s my wish
(Before I kick the bucket…
List)

LYRICS
Some kind of weather
Phenomena
The sky turned green
An extreme scene
It’s not a matter of the whether
Reigning hail the scale of obscene
Some kind of weather
Phenomena na na na na
Some kind of weather
Phenomenon on on um um numb
Expressway turned into a river
It’s not a matter of the whether
The wrong way ruined the “live”-er
All said, “why the bother?”
Some kind of weather
Phenomena na na na na
Some kind of weather
Phenomenon on on um um numb
Wind’s sheer blew clear all dear
It’s not a matter of the whether
More like “here hold my beer”
Now, stand clear
Some kind of weather
Phenomena na na na na
Some kind of weather
Phenomenon on on um um numb

LYRICS
I’m hearing things
Once I start listening
I’m hearing things
Voices say let the music play
Each and every day
Prolong along the way
Living in song you can’t go wrong
Loving to love
Living in song the passion’s strong
Voices above
I’m hearing things
Once I start listening
I’m hearing things
Voices say make of the day
Song in every way
So long as all can play
Living in song you can’t go wrong
Loving to love
Living in song the passion’s strong
Voices above
I’m hearing things
Once I start listening
I’m hearing things
Voices say bring the knew day
Turn blue skies of grey
Shine light upon the way
Living in song you can’t go wrong
Loving to love
Living in song the passion’s strong
Voices above

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
I’m wishing for a wishing well
So, I could make a wish
Go so far as a shooting star
Even if I look foolish
To know a miracle
Perfect as a circle
An endless start
Around the heart

I’m wishing for a wishing well
So, I could make a wish
Go so far as a shooting star
Even if I look foolish
Because a miracle
Would be so special
The End of a heart
Is where it will start

I’m wishing for a wishing well
So, I could make a wish
Go so far as a shooting star
Even if I look foolish
Let’s grow a miracle
In a circle
Found what goes around
Comes around

LYRICS
Downbeat
Fill it in and the melody’s complete
Upbeat
Be the major key
All you see’s complete
With minor exceptions
Days of redemption
Song is the remedy
Soothes souls’ malady
If the chance
Known to dance…
If the chance

LYRICS
Which way’s facing up
Upside’s facing down
Look around
Half-empty is your cup
Half-full is going down
Look up
Look down
Look around

Which way is facing East
Opposite of West?
Who knows best
Mixed up to say the least
What do I suggest
Do your best
Look up
Look down
Look around

Which way is facing South
Rear-view of the North
Please come forth
Nose above my mouth
Knows for what it’s worth
Do come forth
Look up
Look down
Look around

bookmark_borderHot Summer Days

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
So, will it ever cease to amaze
If they all turn into hot summer days
Southern temperate zone
Found a new home
How many lizards and snakes
Does it take
NOAA does predict
Wait for the thick of it
’cause I regret
We ain’t seen nothing yet
Better hedge your bets
’cause we ain’t seen nothing yet

So, will it ever cease to amaze
If they all turn into hot summer days
Do seasons ever change
Sure does seem strange
Use to fall into fall
Now there’s no fall at all
NOAA does predict
Wait for the thick of it
’cause I regret
We ain’t seen nothing yet
Better hedge your bets
’cause we ain’t seen nothing yet

So, will it ever cease to amaze
If they all turn into hot summer days
It sure got dry
Not a drop from the sky
We’ve got summer all year
Everywhere far and near
NOAA does predict
Wait for the thick of it
’cause I regret
We ain’t seen nothing yet
Better hedge your bets
’cause we ain’t seen nothing yet
