LYRICS
Christmas is coming
Faith is forthcoming
Believe to be
If I believe in me
I (just) might come to be

New Year’s evolving
Last year’s dissolving
Projectery
If I believe in me
I (just) might come to be

Consciousness is streaming
In the daylight dreaming
It’s come to be
If I believe in me
I (just) might come to be

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Really not missing
Moaning and pissing
How things use to be
The hustling bustling
Pushing and shoving
Always got to me
A new day has dawned
For those who smile on
… smile on… and, on….

Really am wishing
Hugging and kissing
Will come back to me
Loving and touching
Holding unfolding
The way it ought to be
A new day has dawned
For those who smile on
… smile on… and, on….

Searching high and low
Everywhere I know
Searching high and low
For this thing called love
Beneath underneath
And above high above
Searching high and low
For this thing called love

Hoping it will grow
Everywhere I know
Searching high and low
For this thing called love
Beneath underneath
And above high above

Everywhere I go

Beneath underneath
And above high above
Searching high and low
For this thing called love

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Angels sing
Shepherds come running
Bizarre star
Brings wisemen from afar
And, here we are
Twiddling thumbs
Complaining of free-dumbs
While the past comes
The future goes
Now the future’s passed
(Wow, that happened fast)
Do you think anyone knows?
There it goes!
There goes some more
Going to be future-poor
If we even endure, or…
Hear the angels sing?
Let’s get running
Toward the bizarre star
It’s really not that far

LYRICS
Hey, Baby
Can I make you smile
Hey, Baby
Even for a little while?
In a manger, there he lay
All I’ll say is,
“Can I play?”
And, Baby
Maybe make you smile for a while
If by chance
It’ll make you dance…
Or, just sway in a swaddlin’ way
Baby, can I get you to dance?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The fractals are falling
Wonder if they’ll lay?
Even a light dusting
Would be OK
Let’s go out and play
What do you say?
Ride on a sleigh
Slide… on our way

The snowballs are flying
Better duck and/or sway
The wind blow is drifting
The fractals disarray
Let’s go out and play
What do you say?
Ride on a sleigh
Slide… on our way

The runners are gliding
We’re on our way
The bonfire is burning
On a waning winters day
Let’s go out and play
What do you say?
Ride on a sleigh
Slide… on our way

Posted on by admin

Traditional English Carol

    Em                            C              B7
God rest ye merry, gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
    Em                           C              B7
For Jesus Christ our Saviour was born upon this day
   Am               G                  Em            D
To save us all from Satan's pow'r when we were gone astray
  G          B7          Em               D
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
  G          B7          Em
O tidings of comfort and joy

From God our heavenly Father a blessed angel came
And unto certain shepherds brought tidings of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

The shepherds at those tidings rejoiced much in mind
And left their flocks a-feeding in tempest, storm and wind
And went to Bethlehem straightway this blessed Babe to find
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

But when to Bethlehem they came whereat this Infant lay
They found Him in a manger where oxen feed on hay
His mother Mary kneeling unto the Lord did pray

Now to the Lord sing praises, all you within this place
And with true love and brotherhood each other now embrace
This holy tide of Christmas all other doth deface

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Maybe a fire will help inspire
As song for a sing-a-long
We can sit close and rub our noses
Under the mistletoe practicing poses
A Christmas picture
For our future
… to endure

Sit by the fire
Take spirits higher
Sing a long
To our song
Wrapping gifts
Gives a lift
Thought of snow and memory drift
A Christmas picture
Of our future
… to endure

Bring on the Christmas Spirit
And make it quick
Bring on the Christmas Spirit
And never quit
Make it last all day
Then get it to stay
Make it last all night
Straight through to dawn’s twilight

Pile on the Christmas Spirit
And make it thick
Pile on the Christmas Spirit
And quite a bit
Make it last all day
Then get it to stay
Make it last all night
Straight through to dawn’s twilight

Ring in the Christmas Spirit
And let’s hear it
Ring in the Christmas Spirit
And let’s hear it
Make it last all day
Then get it to stay
Make it last all night
Straight through to dawn’s twilight

God’s unrest ye merry gentlemen
Why again and again and again?
Consider the worth of peace on Earth
Give our love a birth
As in your child
Born into the wild

Why again and again and again?
Are our children sufferin’
Due our fear of fear
Instead, endear
Give our love a birth
As in your inner child
Born wild

They’d say, “We’re calling for snow.”
Our anticipation would grow
Oh, it seems such a long time ago

Still looking out the window
Waiting for the first flake to show
Oh, it seems such a long time ago

The wind is starting to blow
As the clouds shadow below
Oh, it seems such a long time ago

LYRICS
On such a cold winter’s eve
From greed can you take leave
In the age of hysteria
Push and shove given to love
First is last in America
America, USA
Love gave way

On such a dark winter’s night
Being the beacon’s light
In the age of hysteria
From above shines on love
Last is first in America
America, USA
Loves the way
