LYRICS
Heaven on Earth
Given a birth
Life unfurled
Joy to our world
On a wander
Stop to ponder
In a wonder wonderland
Taking her hand I understand
Glories of the grand

Won’t let them waste away
Precious is the day
Take advantage of the birth
For what it’s worth
On a wander
Stop to ponder
In a wonder wonderland
Taking her hand I understand
Glories of the grand

LYRICS
There’s one thing in life that’s for sure
You’ve got to love love…
And all that’s in store
Never know when you’ll hit the floor
Soon you’ll be knocking on heaven’s door
Just like that
Right back for more

Dear God,
I pray you recycle
Don’t want to be Gabriel or Michael
A highfalutin angel or laudy daudy
I want flesh and bone… give me a body
Same as before
Just like that
Right back for more

Appreciate what I’ve been given
But, I can’t get enough of this living
Never bored to death nor to die for
Not “The End”… to be continued… another door
Just like that
Right back for more
Just like that….

Any cheer is good cheer
A New Year
365 around the sun
Another year done

You choose

You lose

Hold dear

Happy New Year

Any cheer is good cheer
A New Year
Night and daylight
Are looking bright

bookmark_border(That Baby is too Cute) To Sacrifice

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
When that feeling comes over me
Oh, Lord, makes me want to plead
Oh, please! Oh, no, oh, please
Don’t let him bleed
Beyond absolute
That baby is too damn cute
Under advise
Would be be shame to sacrifice
And on and on and on it goes
Personal demons are the greatest foes
Forgive the sinner from all his woes
So why oh why must he die?
If we all promise not to sin
We pray he can go on living
And on and on and on it goes
Personal demons are the greatest foes
Forgive the sinner from all his woes

bookmark_borderFollow A Star

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
How bizarre
To wonder how far
To follow a star
Plan to make it my destiny
To clearly see
On the road, my destination —
To infinity
How bizarre
To wonder how far
To follow the star

No gold, frankincense or myrrh
Who could ask for more
Though I’m not a wealthy king
In the heart, all of my love I bring

How bizarre
To wander so far
To follow a star
Plan to make it my odyssey
To finally see
On the road, my destination —
To infinity
How bizarre
To wander so far
To follow the star
(chorus)

LYRICS
As they pick up the fear
Kict-it into gear
Overdrive
Plunge and dive
With hands as fast as lightning
World’s a little less frightening
With wit to cut to the quick
Sense of humor’s sick

As they pick up the fear
Better seer clear
On the verge
Adrenaline surge

As they pick up the fear
Virtue hold dear
Overdrive
Staying alive

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
If you offer your hand, I’ll take it
If you offer to help, we’ll make it
’til death do I die I won’t quit
You and I (Touch the sky)
Partners in mortality
Yours in eternity
Mine in brevity
Humanity

Servant to your authority
Of freewill and autonomy
… though in brevity
Humanity

Soul-dier in unity
Thriving on giving
Among the living
Humanity

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Wrap yourself in your birthday suit
Christmas is on its way
For at the core… at the root
The birth is the day
[The birthing earthling
To day, today, too day]
The day you were born
And now forever yearn
We learn
Heaven and hell torn

In “The End” the message you send
It the answer you receive
And would you believe
The message your receive
Do you believe?
(Miss Christmas)

LYRICS
Can you feel it, too
We know what to do
Can you feel the temperature dropping
Look outside! The snow is falling
Stop on by we’ll take it higher
Let time transpire by the fire
Can you feel the mistletoe calling
Get your present and stocking stuffing
Give the dog a Christmas bone
Then, we can be all alone

LYRICS
Gather round enjoy the sound
Hope and joy and cheer are found
All around
Holiday bound
Fill your cup and drink it up
Make the most… propose a toast
All “a round”
Holiday bound
They say this is the day
Earth was given the birth
Make the most of a heavenly host
Propose a toast
Refreshment in merriment
Feel love come in from above
Spirit moving near it
Can you hear it?
Cheer it!

They say this is the day
Earth was given the birth
Make the most of a heavenly host
Propose a toast

LYRICS
It’s getting cold
Seasons unfold
That time of year
Solstice draws near
The nip in the air
Takes memories there
With presents under the tree
We’re singing merrily
How blessed are we
All Men

Fresh snowfall scent
More memories lent
Sound of a bell
Wishing all well
The nip in the air
Our memories share
With presents under the tree
We’re singing merrily
How blessed are we
All Men

LYRICS
What happens when an angel comes alive
Wisemen realize
… and arrive
Into the wishing well
Angel
Wishing well

What happens when an angel comes alive
Is given birth
Will there be love
And, peace on Earth
Into the wishing well
Angel
Wishing well

Quite sure
All Men are created like Her
Imagine… in Her image
The more you age
The more it fades
Parts ways
Hold on, son

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Come one. Come all.
The Homo sapiens are throwing a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn’t really matter where you are

Celebrate the date
It’s never too late
The Homo sapiens are having a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn’t really matter where you are

A celebration of the dead
The eulogy sung not said
The Homo sapiens are throwing a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn’t really matter where you are

A celebration of the living
Celebrate the love we’re giving
The Homo sapiens are having a ball
From near. From far.
It doesn’t really matter where you are

When I’m dead and gone
Celebrate! Go on!

LYRICS
It all started at the beginning
Well, not all
Just the first thing
Then, the ball
Was rolling
A snowball in freefall
Down the side
On the slide
Of the mountain
Picking up mass
Rather fast
And, yes, indeed
Picking up speed
Mass passes masses amasses
Quantum momentum
