When I get to the bottom
I go back to the top of the hill
Where I stop and I turn and I give you a thrill
‘Til I get to the bottom and I see you again
Yeah, yeah
— The Beatles

LYRICS
As soon as I’m done
Want to do it again
Right back in line
One more time
Over and over and over again
From our hearts
The best part’s
Participation
Taking part
In the art
Of cooperation

End of the run
To the starting gun
Over and over and over again
Once it has been
It’s back to begin
Over and over and over again
From our hearts
The best part’s
Participation
Taking part
In the art
Of cooperation

LYRICS
When I look in your eyes
I realize
We sure do have it good
Enough of should
Enough of could
It’s time to do or die
Raise our heart
Push on start
It’s time do die or try

When I see the blue skies
I realize
We sure do have it good
Enough of should
Enough of could
It’s time to do or die
Raise our heart
Push on start
It’s time do die or try

No more battle cries
We all realize
We sure do have it good
Enough of should
Enough of could
It’s time to do or die
Raise our heart
Push on start
It’s time do die or try

LYRICS
Comes together
Falls in place
Snapped tether
Free float through space
Above the whether/weather
Shadows… no trace
Float like a feather
Across the Earth’s face

Comes apart
Falls to pieces
The art of art
Never ceases
Comes together
Falls in place
Snapped tether
Free float through space
Above the whether/weather
Shadows… no trace
Float like a feather
Across the Earth’s face

Despite the fright
I feel alright
Going light
On the uptight
In the midst of a good night

Going light
On the uptight
In the midst of a good night
Goodnight

bookmark_borderMakes Me Smile

LYRICS
I look out of my cage
Ask why’s this what I made?
I booked and set the stage
Maybe it’s time for us…
… to go extemporaneous?
And, it brings a smile t my face
A whole (k)new outlook on our race

Feel like a rat in a maze
Day to days turn into haze
I think why not a new phase?
Maybe it’s time for us…
… to go extemporaneous?
And, it brings a smile t my face
A whole (k)new outlook on our race

Lost in a flock of sheep
On an ever growing manure heap
Maybe it’s time we woke from our sleep?
Maybe it’s time for us…
… to go extemporaneous?
And, it brings a smile t my face
A whole (k)new outlook on our race

LYRICS
Why be green with envy
When you think the grass is greener
The other side of the fend makes you meaner
Though the stories have been told
No, it never, ever grows old
Living in this beautiful world

Why get red in the face
Consumed by growing anger
Does common sense put you in danger?
Though the stories have been told
No, it never, ever grows old
Living in this beautiful world

Look in he mirror
You’re turning white as a ghost
While above the ground let’s make the most
Though the stories have been told
No, it never, ever grows old
Living in this beautiful world

LYRICS
To weather coming together
Whether…
to come together
Or depart ’til we part
Walking on the Earth
The part after birth
And pre-me under dirt
Six feet down, down, down
Ain’t no place for me to be
To have been and never again?
No mama, not for me
No mama, thank you… I be
Going to try n’ ride the upside
Of this Earth
Of this birth

LYRICS
I thought we had a long way to walk
But, it looks like we’re already there
I thought we’d have a lot of small talk
Now, it looks like we’re down to the bare
Dare to care
Share the air

I thought we has a long way to go
But, it looks like we’re already there
I thought roots we’re starting to grow
But, it looks like the garden’s bare
Dare to care
Share the air

I thought we had a long road ahead
But, it looks like we’re already there
I thought we’ve said all that could be said
But, it looks like there’s still heart to bare
Dare to care
Share the air

LYRICS
The winding path between night and day
Changes course along the way
To or fro
Who’s to know?
Unaware ’til there
Smell the salt of a sea breeze
See the trees
Oxygen feed
Open cages to the freed
On to wander/wonder
… any of these?

The winding path between night and day
Changes course along the way
To or fro
Who’s to know?
Unaware ’til there
The wafting scent/sent of what is meant
Experimenting with birds and the bees
Experiencing where the past went
On to wander/wonder
… any of these?

Who left the barn door ajar
The ass is out of the stable
Hopefully hasn’t gotten too far
Living life in an Aesop’s Fable
Incredible
Highly edible
It’s your life
Eat it up

Spit out the parts with bad taste
But don’t let the rest go to waste
If your hunger is causing strife
Eat it up
It’s your life
Incredible
Highly edible
It’s your life
Eat it up
