LYRICS
The smile on your face
The loving embrace
It’s heart warming
Enduring

When I began to figure it out
I was just a little sprout
Couldn’t help but to laugh and grin
If I could, I’d do it over again

Then as I started to grow
Wasn’t hard for me to get to know
Taking time to smile with you
Adversity we’d get through

Time goes by and I grow old
Hopefully when my story is told
It’ll bring a smile to your face
Remembering the time we enjoyed in this place

There’s been a natural (nature) release
Have a… won’t you… won’t you please
Have a nice day

Flourishing flora and fauna fulfill
I believe… I believe I will
Perceive… I will do it today

The sun came out
The sky turned blue
Good cheer’s about
How about you?

Happening supernatural release
Have a… won’t you please
Please have a piece/peace
Just the place I love to go
Hearts and souls overflow
The kind-of show ya wanna get to know
Reap the seeds you sow

LYRICS
Why don’t you go ahead and choose
After all what do you have to lose?
You’ve been blessed with a human mind
Please be kind… see what you can find

How can you live in indecision
That living’s more like dying
Create a synapse collision
It’ll sure be worth trying

You have to choose not to choose
Eliminating that choice
Living life is paying dues
Might as well raise your voice

What hat are you wearing
Try on your thinking-cap
Likely end up caring
And want to plot the map

LYRICS
State Police go flying by
With their lights blazing
Makes a man wonder why
Sirens are blaring
Shootout at the county seat
Justice dealt another defeat

Lead that led to death’s bed
Turns the living to the dead
Makes a man wonder why
Someone’s gotta die
Shootout at the county seat
Justice dealt another defeat

Wedding of clothing with shedding blood
Brings an out pouring… an emotional flood
Makes a man wonder why
There’s a final good-bye
Shootout at the county seat
Justice dealt another defeat

LYRICS
Have you ventured too far
“Who do you think you are?”

Lady? Bug! Lady? Bug!
Fly away home
Lady? Bug! Lady? Bug!
Leave them alone

Will you push them too far
Forcing them to fly
Will you push them too far
’till they say bye-bye

Now you’ll take your own test
In your empty-nest-ness
Baby’s grown and flown
Now you’re on your own

Can you figure intrigue
Animosity to curiosity?
Rather explore some more
Pull the trigger! Let’s dig!

Letting your conscious grow — a spiritual flow

If you feel your life isn’t that great
Be glad it’s not that way every day
I can surely wait for the mundane date
So if you might… if you may….
Bring on your beauty
The likes of which I thought I’d never see
Bring on your beauty
So I know what I am free

If you feel livin’ life is too late
Realize it’s never too late to participate

LYRICS
Setting off a spark in your brain
Sensing there’s a shark in your lane
Wow! Look at him
You’d better swim
Before you’re a snack
From a shark attack

After my board started flipping
I’m ananamumana… “I am tripping”
Wow! Look at him
You’d better swim
Before you’re a snack
From a shark attack

See that fin? I’m punching in
Ensure a lesser white will win
Wow! Look at him
You’d better swim
Before you’re a snack
From a shark attack

Oh so happy! I survive
Oh so happy I’m alive

ABOUT THE SONG

A song about “Mick Fanning: Shark Attacks Surfer During Final of J-Bay Open Competition in South Africa”. “I just saw fins. I was waiting for the teeth,” Fanning, who was not injured in the attack, told Sky News Sunday. Following the attack, the World Surf League canceled the remainder of the competition. Mick punched the shark and got away. “I’m happy to not even compete ever again,” Fanning told a reporter after he was brought back to the safety of the beach by a boat. “I just want to let all my family and friends know, I’m okay,” he said. “I’m just tripping out.”

Written and recorded under the trees in Marshall Square Park, West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania.

Dreaming of a life of ease
Swinging beneath the trees
Hoping a summer breeze

And that humans
Will be humane again
That all being
Will let their love begin

Scheming up how to applaud
Debunking of all the fraud
Justice from narrow to broad
Gets God’s nod

Listening to the music play
The Message… wouldn’t ya say?
Maybe today’s the day
We may play

Do you know about the flow
And do you know where to go
Where the wine flows like water
And love? You can say I caught her

Save me a lil’ sliver
Of jammin’ on the river
Jam along the river

It sure does feel fine
Along the Brandywine
Catch a whiff there
There’s something in the air

There’s dancing most of the time
And the melodic flow of rhyme
A party from suck to dawn
‘tellin ya, ya can’t go wrong

I heard the man on the radio say
Tornado Warning!
The storming is coming
Right for you
Better do what you do

Do what you do when you see one
RUN!!!

I heard the man on the radio say
There’s a tornado headed our way

Like a rotten tomato
Thrown at our picnic just for fun
Time to fold camp. Time to run!

Do what you do when you see one
