Song Title: Back Stabbers
Made famous by The O’Jays
Cover version is simply a Mess

(What they do!)
(They smile in your face)
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)
(They smile in your face)
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)
All you fellows who have someone and you really care, yeah, yeah
Then it’s all of you fellows who better beware, yeah yeah
Somebody’s out to get your lady
A few of your buddies they sure look shady
Blades are long, clenched tight in their fist
Aimin’ straight at your back
And I don’t think they’ll miss
(What they do!)
(They smile in your face)
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)
I keep gettin’ all these visits from my friends, yeah, what they doin to me
They come to my house again and again and again and again, yeah
So are they there to see my woman
I don’t even be home but they just keep on comin’
What can I do to get on the right track
I wish they’d take some of these knives off my back
(They smile in your face)
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)
Low down… dirty…
(What they do!)
(They smile in your face)
Smiling faces… smiling faces sometimes tell lies (Back stabbers)
(They smile in your face)
I don’t need… low down, dirty bastards (Back stabbers)

XX (aka peter’d out and double crossed)

Have you ever had a friend,
That petered out?
Is that how you found out,
What they-r ‘ll about?

Have you ever been double crossed?
Stiffed? Stuffed? Stripped?
Have you ever been double crossed?
Mished. Mashed. Messed.

Too bad for their fate,
But, don’t let it get you irate!
Better to find out,
What they-r ‘ll about,
Before it’s too late,
And, they castrate…
Berate… degenerate.

Noooo… I choose to create!

Give ’em enough rope,
To prove their scope,
They define:
Lifeline?
Or, is their definition too loose,
As they build (fasten) their own noose?

Have you ever had a friend,
That petered out?
Is that how you found out,
What they-r ‘ll about?

Have you ever been double crossed?
Stiffed? Stuffed? Stripped?
Have you ever been double crossed?
Mished. Mashed. Messed.

bookmark_borderSure Hope She Comes My Way

Posted on by admin

I sure hope She comes my way,
In fact, that’s what I pray,
And, She continues… to this day,
To keep on passing my way.

I hope She comes my way,
I mean… that’s just it,
I don’t mind a bit,
When She should pass my way.

Up until my judgement day,
I’ll continue to act this way,
As long as I have my way,
I’ll follow what She has to say.

I won’t let her pass me by,
I’ll continue to try n’ try,
To continue by Her side,
To continue to try n’ try,
To continue to continue to abide.

Posted on by admin

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

I can not think that we are useless or God would not have created us. There is one God looking down on us all. We are all the children of one God. The sun, the darkness, the winds are all listening to what we have to say. — Geronimo

Geronimo!

Look out below,
I’m ready to go,
Geronimo!

Look out below,
We’re ready to go,
Geronimo!

Know, know, know,

Ya know,

I heard the news baby
All about your disease
Yeah, you may have all you want baby
But I got somethin’ you need. Oh, yeah!

My love is rotten to the core
Ain’t talkin’ ’bout love

You know you’re semi-good lookin’
And on the streets again
Ooh yeah, you think you’re really cookin’ baby
You better find yourself a friend, my friend

bookmark_borderHere We Go Again

Posted on by admin

You would think we’d say,
After we made it all this way,
Where do we go from here?
But, all that I hear —
Here we go again!

Who wants to begin again…
And, again and again?
Having been,
I already know the feeling,
Since I know,
Can we go,
Ahead?

Now we’ve said,
After we made it all this way,
Where do we go from here?
I hope all that I hear is…
On to another beautiful day!

Big Friggin’ Deal
I mean…
What’s the big deal?

For real?

Please spiel,
How you feel.

Need I beg and kneel?
Borrow or steal?

Tomorrow we’ll all heal?
Feast on thanksgiving meal?

Till then… guess it’s a friggin’ big deal.

Let’s wheel and deal.
Has mass appeal!
That’s a big friggin’ deal.

bookmark_borderWe’re Movin’

Posted on by admin

We’ll kick it into,
Interstellar overdrive,
As we get into,
Some rock n’ roll n’ space truckin’,
We’ll be movin’ in the grove n’ ecstasy,
Astral travelers charting their (very own) destiny,
Flightless birds on an airborne journey.

Space Truckers, “Start your engines!”
It’s time to look alive,
This is no fantasy,
It’s much easier to survive,
When we act like we’re livin’,
Let’s get movin’ in the grove n’ ecstasy,
Astral travelers purposely charting our destiny,
Flightless birds on an airborne journey.

I like the look of your chassis,
Will you be my spiritual vehicle?
After seeing your undercarriage,
I’d like propose marriage,
Of our psyche,
Now, hope you don’t mind,
If I turn you on,
With the twist of your key,
I hear the beginnin’s,
Of your engine,
You purr when you run,
Back in the saddle, again,
I feel the heat of your seat,
And, it’s making my heart beat.

Enough of following losers,
Trying to peddle meddle,
You make up where I did lag,
Your mine and I’m yours,
Now! Faster! Pass Her this way,
And, I think we’ll find,
The ultimate payday,
Wow! I owe it to you — the checkered flag!

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
We are movin’ in the grove n’ ecstasy,
Astral travelers arriving at our destiny,
Flightless birds on an airborne journey…
Never wantin’ to abandon the sojourn.

bookmark_borderEmpower Plant

Posted on by admin

If I had the power,
Of power generation…
To generate enough power,
To power a generation,
I would.

If I could…
Generate an interest,
In what’s in our best interest,
I would.

If I should…
Forget to mention,
The higher power,
Deserves our attention,
She can deliver power,
To our,
Generation,
And, our generation,
Can be an empowerment plant.

Instead of being a wallflower,
I can be a plant —
An empower plant,
Instead of being an energy drain,
I can help sustain,
I’ve taken from the grid,
I did,
I’ve thrown the switch,
Which…
Drained our resources,
Changing rivers’ courses,
Turning fog to smog,
On the smoke we choke,
Yes, it was me,
Wasting freely,
What need I ascertain,
To make a change,
To help sustain,
Instead of drain, drain, drain?

Nothing more,
Change is in range,
Enough of before,
Time to transplant,
To an empower plant.

Crank up the juice,
Let the love loose,
A higher power,
Across the wire,
From an empower planet’s,
Power plant.

bookmark_borderSpoiled Rotten

Posted on by admin

Chorus:
Uh oh,
Something’s,
Cooking,
And, I don’t,
Like the way,
It’s smelling.

Smells too bad,
To be cabbage,
I imagine,
It could be,
Rotten eggs?

Chorus

Makes me sad,
In such an age,
That souls famine,
It could be,
One who begs?

Chorus

Yup, I think,
Something,
Does stink,
And, it’s starting to look,
Like it’s the cook,
The one who prepares,
This recipe,
Is fouling things up…
Completely,
So, if you wonder what’s up,
For tonight’s sup’,
It’s the crap we put in this stew,
Spoiled ingredients…
More than just a few:

A rotten attitude
A cup 1/2 empty
A spoon feeding (Until spoiled)
A temper (Boiled)

Now, we’re pleading,
And, moaning,
From stomach pain,
But, look in the pot,
None does remain.

Should have been thankful,
For what I got,
But, I forgot,
Now, I’m full,
Of spoiled rotten,
Wish I wouldn’t,
Have forgotten.

bookmark_borderLet ‘Em Roll

Posted on by admin

A coupla’ reminders,
To take off my blinders:

Gonna let ’em roll,
Right over me,
If they’re thinkin’ that,
I’ll be goin’ splat…
If that’s their goal,
Gonna let ’em roll,
Right over me…
’cause I can be flat,
Flat as can be,
Then sprout right back,
Toward infinity.

Lord knows…
There’s an eternity,
For takin’ blows,
But, lifetime goes,
By too quickly,
To waste a bit,
On any of that,
‘rather just act…
Flat!
And, let ’em roll,
Yeah, let ’em roll,
Right over me,
Likely, won’t be ’till then,
That they’ll see,
Probably be when,
That they’ll see,
The stonewall,
Right behind me,
Soooo, let ’em roll,
Yeeeeah, let ’em roll,
Gonna let ’em roll,
Right over me!

bookmark_borderArbitrage

Posted on by admin

Why wear arbitrage,
Around the neck,
Like an albatross?

What the heck?
Do I believe in gravity?
Is asking an absurdity?

The forces of the market,
More than predict it,
They make it…
Happen,
Again and again,
Until reaching equilibrium.

No need to be outraged,
By arbitrage,
It can be a friend of ours,
Though,
Like any other tool,
When put in the hands of a fool…
Whoa! Ohhhhh no!

The gotta have money,
To make money,
Rule,
Ain’t that funny,
When you’re the stool,
And, to see the rich,
Get richer,
By exploiting the difference,
In cents,
May not seem to make sense,
But, in the end it does,
Because,
Market equilibrium,
Is the same for you and me,
Just like them,
What goes around,
Comes around,
And, the social equilibrium,
Will reach justification,
Where supply meets demand,
Is the price,
Where good meets evil,
Is justice,
Makes me stammer,
In awe.

Soooo… I’ll try not to play the fool,
And, use the tool,
To the best of my ability,
With ample,
Opportunity,
Taking the example,
Of the blind man,
Who picked up his hammer,
And, saw….

bookmark_borderA Passion To Play

Posted on by admin

What will become of the day?
How long do we have to play?
Do I have any say,
In the way,
Things go down?

Sure!
I could just drown,
Afraid of the future,
But, would I be a let down,
In the way,
Things go down?

What will become of the day?
How long do we have to play?
I love the sound,
We’ve found,
And, wish it could stick around.

Nurture!
Run long,
With dance and song,
Get down!
Help the way,
Things go down.

Rock it,
Like a rocket,
Feel it,
With a passion,
To jump on…
The freedom,
Train,
Free the brain,
Free the strain…
Of whether we’ll remain,
’cause we’ll be ridin’ on,
And, on, and, on…
Seeking the light,
At the end of the tunnel,
Veering toward the right,
Past our funeral,
There’s justification for all,
At this festival.

What will become of that day?
How long do we get to play?
Do ya like to sing n’ jig?
If so… we’ll continue to gig!
Rockin’ on,
With a passion.
