LYRICS
There’s nothing wrong with searching and searching
As long as your researching is educating
Learn something new ’bout every moment
Startled by the movement
Think I surprised you?
You scared the crap out of me, too
But now that I see you’re just havin’ fun
Fawn on the run

There’s a squirrel lookin’ down at us
Thinking “in too bad taste” to be nuts
Had to agree, wink and nod
We should act like animals instead of God
Takin’ in the moment
Startled by the movement
Think I surprised you?
You scared the crap out of me, too
But now that I see you’re just havin’ fun
Fawn on the run

ABOUT THE SONG
E7sus4 E7 A7
D6 A7 E7sus4

Have you ever been scared of something only to find out there was nothing to fear? Such an instance inspired this song. Out of the corner of my eye I saw something moving. It was only a few feet from me. I could see it was larger than a rabbit… it was larger than a groundhog. It started stumbling and fumbling right toward me. Then, I recognized it was a fawn. It barely knew how to standup and run away.

Written and recorded at Lake Wynonah, Schuylkill County, PA.

LYRICS
When the well runs dry
No matter your try
What are you suppose to do?

When it’s hell on land
We’ll understand
The creeks run dry, too

Though the sea level rise
Will rise the tide
It’s not potable for you

‘less you’ve the notion
For desalinization
And pollution that turns you blue
With diseases… more than a few

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…

LYRICS
Why don’t you just do it
All this talkin’, talkin’ round town
Draggin’ everybody down

If EVERYBODY starts, everybody starts to love a bit
We can do it

Some sort-of habit
Where you just say it
Eradicate negate
Eliminate hate
For God-ness sake

Moving so fast
But going nowhere
Life being lost
Being unaware

Afraid of the clown

LYRICS
With the eye of a hawk
She let out a squawk
With the speed of a jaguar
Set the liar on fire
… liar on fire

With the grace of a swan
She showed me the dawn
A situation that’s dire
She wants to set the liar on fire

Being stubborn like a mule
He insists on playing the fool
Thinking all will admire
A liar set on fire

This little piggy went to market
The piggy should have stayed home
This little piggy is out-of-pocket
Does the piggy need a loan?

LYRICS
Do you think this is
When you think this is
If you think this is
Have you heard of show biz?

Can you feel it coming
You know you feel it coming
Do you look within
If you feel it coming
You know you feel it coming
What are we doing?

Beware of “awes” behind the curtain
For certain, if there’s one thing certain
There’s no onw no where wanting hurtin’
Forget the rest. Wink. Smile. Flirtin’….

LYRICS
We’re dancing, dancing…
We’re dancing off the roof

Might as well transpire
Our feat is on fire
Might as well transpire
Our feet are on fire

We’re dancing, dancing…
We’re dancing off the roof

The sweat is dripping from my brow
Now, it pours from every pore

We’re dancing, dancing…
We’re dancing off the roof

The “Hard Sun” is pounding down
… some more and some more

We’re dancing, dancing…
We’re dancing off the roof

It’s not as though we’re aloof
Or your reality is just a spoof

We’re dancing, dancing…
We’re dancing off the roof

LYRICS
Why would I sit… sit here and wait
Just to hesitate then gulp on your bait?

If you think being caught is what you’ve got
We’re here to tell you that it’s not
Off the hook. Close the book.
The End. A chance to live again

Something smells fishy. You know there’s something fishy
You know there’s something fishy going on (again)

Now that I’m free… I’ve been set free
I can tell you clearly what I can see
The hierarchy versus anarchy
Creates hypocrisy in the depths of our sea

In the summertime
Time goes past fast
In the summertime
Just wish it’d last

Cicadas sounding like castanets
Quaking aspen shaking to the beat
What gives is what gets
Let’s go running in bare feet

Bringing on the summer solstice
At the cusp of a full moon
The days are beautiful… the nights nice
Just wish it wasn’t over so soon

LYRICS
If you want to see the vigor in me
Step a little closer and see what you see
If you want to see victory in “we”
Get off your high horse… come down from your tree

Chorus
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you
And, I really wonder what you’re up to
There use to be a place we could meet
Any more, I’m not sure if there’s a seat

If you want to see the real me
Take a closer look — intimacy
If you want to see the victorious us
Head right on course… get in focus

Chorus

From the womb to the tomb
Gonna live it the fullest… that I am!
From the bomb to the boom
Gonna let my soul, self, spirit scream
