LYRICS
Gonna give it a whirl
In good ‘ole East Earl

[chorus]
What’s “birthday” mean to you
Going to Shady Maple, too
For an all you can eat
Birthday treat

My, oh, my
Pie in the sky
You can have your cake
And, eat it, too
Sampling apple dumpling
Can the belly take
More than two
Are you telling me
All you an eat for free?
[chorus]

Travelin’ miles
For service n’ smiles
Another run around the sun
When it’s all said and done
Can’t wait ’til next year
When my birthday draws near
Heading back to East Earl
For another whirl
[chorus]

Please come again!

LYRICS
Grab your hoe
Come on let’s go
What we reap is what we sow
Probably should water good
Adding to the neighborhood

[chorus]
Generation germination
Pant my seed
Grows like a weed

Hey, maybe our baby
Falls close to the tree..
Guess we’ll see
Probably
Sprout nine months out
Isn’t that what life’s about
[chorus]

Sometime soon… around noon
Shady Maple’s fork and spoon
Pops, son n’ me… family three
Generations dinning happily

bookmark_borderThe Epic Break-up Song

LYRICS
Alright
It starts off nice and calm
… when we’re still in love

I thought you said you’d love me
You’d love me till The End
And, then…
It was The End

Things are looking brighter now
And, I know somehow
I’ll find my way out of here
I’ll find my way clear

You said you’d never go
Now, I know
It’s time to go

No blood and guts?
You’ve gone nuts
There’s enough blood and guts
You’ve gone nuts

LYRICS
So
What’s the problem
So
I don’t know
First you clobber ’em
Then rob ’em
Before you #uck ’em?
What’s my problem
That’s my problem

What’s the problem
I try to solve ’em
Watch that puzzle
Fizzle

Ya, what’s the problem
So
You don’t know?
Solution
Revolution
Going on in my mind
How to be kind
It’s the revolution
Solution
In my mind
Try n’ be kind
