Capo 3
A string play D
Add pinky high A
Spewing goo
Hatred anew
Is that what I want to do?
Don’t become that
Which I despise
Less sober
More Wise
Don’t become that
Which I despise
I try to realize
When it’s all over
… rather remain
Love and the same

The sun is shinin’
Again
The sky’s clearin’
Again
The power of the shower
Reigns down on me
And, I see the light
All’s clear
In sight

This song is based on Hurricane Irene. I was suppose to play a Bob Marley festival… but, it was canceled due to Atlantic City being under a mandatory evacuation. When I explained my situation to a fan, he said, “Irene’s a bitch.”

Ole Lady leery
Left her lantern in the shed
When the how kicked it over
She winked her I and said,
“If ya know what i mean
My names Irene
Gonna be gnarly
Sorry, no Marely.”
So, we played all night
Into the day
Play, play, play
We played into the rain
The spirit will remain
A tidal surge
Irie sea
Love splurge
See irie

Why don’t you keep your hands to yourself
The strangulation of imagination

Men thinking
They could wall tall
To make others
Feel small
Without blinking
Squashing
No consideration
At all
A federation
Of corruption
Damnation crusade
Tryin’ persuade
By destruction
Men thinking
They could walk talk
Please,
Drop to your knees

My Alibi
Alibis
I was there4
Saw what I drank
And, I thank
You
The reality of royalty
Uncertainty
Certainly
Swimming in the pickle barrel
With the angel fish
Swimming in the pickle barrel
Raise a glass!
To you,
A wish
When you’re Dunn
You’re done
Let’s do it again

The storm water system failed
Manhole covers sailed
Surge
Urge
The forces that be
Caused by we
Reckless endangerment meant
We forced the hand
That feeds us
What happens next?
Bite with spite
We did
We Id
Let our ego go
Out-of-control
Written after a weekend of intense thunderstorms caused flash flooding across the state of Pennsylvania.

Yes, it’s true
Love can slip inside of you
Yes, it’s true
Love will get you through
Yes, it’s true
Love and slip outside of you

I can tell by the way
You tore us apart
There’s a hole
In your heart
It’s time
For some major laser
Major laser brain surgery
It would appear
The time is near
For you to have corrective surgery
It would seem
That you are mean
… fix the tear in your heart
The black hole
That tore us apart
Try to fuse
Before we all lose
With some major laser
Major laser brain surgery
Try to repair
Under there
Where the heart
Has a tear
You ripped your heart
Apart
Why would you do
You
Why would you ever
Want to rip your heart apart?
Dear,
Now, I’m here
For some major laser
Major laser brain surgery
Is there anybody home?
Any friends and family
Should beware
Should be aware
The Damn Age
She will damage
The Damn Age
Let’s start
To fix your heart
Major laser
Major laser brain surgery
Fix the tear
In your heart
There’s something wrong with you
Fix the view
Despicable
Fix-able?
Operate
Castrate
Major laser
Major laser brain surgery
Operate
Before, it’s too late
Begin
Time to go in
Here we go
Try to fix her *know*
You’re sick
You’re ill
No goodwill
Time to repair in there
Major laser
Major laser brain surgery
by Daniel Brouse with a little inspiration from Emerson Lake and Palmer *Brain Salad Surgery”
A song written and recorded at the corners of Gay Street and Church Street ’round midnight in West Chester, Pennsylvania. A battery operated electric / acoustic classical guitar was plugged into a battery enabled chorus foot peddle (to create stereo) that was plugged into a rechargeable M-Audio Microtrack. The setup is a mini mobile recording studio.

Inspired by the moonflower seeds that sprouted into the sun… growing more tasty than alfalfa, bean or others.
Written sittin’ on the wall at the corners of Market and High streets in downtown West Chester… while sittin’ next to some sprouts… and before ya knew it, they were sprouting everywhere. A beautiful thing — a flower child patch sprouting.
Quarter fairy, barely
The heat is no match for a sprout
No doubt
Ya play it funked up blues

Voyager through time and space
You’re always in your place
With so far to roam
Yet, you’re always at home
Voyager
So far to roam
You’re always at home
Voyager through time and space
Voyager
You’re in your place
Can you bring your race
Back home
Voyager
You’re in Her place
Can you bring your race
Back home
Voyager through time and space
Bring it on home

Both near and far
All the others
Always wanted to play
Allison’s guitar
Everyday
In every way
That’s all you would hear them say
“If I could only play…
Everything would be OK”
Ever since the very first day
All I wanted to do is play, play, play
Play with Allison’s guitar
All I do is hope and pray
Each and every… every day
Just want to play
With her guitar
Ever since the very first day
All they could say
Is how they want to play
With Allison’s guitar
I want to play with
Allison’s guitar
No matter how bizarre
Want to play with
Allison’s guitar
