LYRICS
What is it called when you score a lucky find
When it’s evolved and more likely to be kind

When you smile like that
I just can’t hold back

What is involved when you perform a simple act
When it’s resolved and you inform the basic fact

When you smile like that
I just can’t hold back

What is it called when you do a good deed
Homeless housed and to the hungry feed

When you smile like that
I just can’t hold back

LYRICS
Between the ground a blue
Is you
As long as green can be seen
You do
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

If you’re turning red
From humiliation
Please do not dread
Your illumination
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

If you’re seeing red
From aggravation
At least you’re not dead
In Hell’s incarceration
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

When I’m covered up and all is black
I hope there’s still a chance of coming back
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

LYRICS
Winds like a monsoon
Blowing through
Under a bad moon
Impacting you

For those that do not yield
Level the playing field

Truly a magnificent breeze
Not every day you feel one of these

Windy like a monsoon
Minds lie a baboon

Sheer sure could blow the man down
Replace the halo with a thorny crown

LYRICS
Get of bed!
The newsman said:
“There’s gotta be more than 50 dead”
Number of injured is more than a few
Death too could rise if they don’t pull through

When it doesn’t add up like it’s suppose to
(Then, what can you do?)

Massive militant moron mob to the right
An enormous ignorant left pick a fight
A census of us (U.S.)… counting all day and all of the night
A pollster’s nightmarish view
Will America’s will pull through?

When it doesn’t add up like it’s suppose to
(Then, what can you do?)

Love is coming
She’s on the wing

That which we seek
Is on the street
Onto our feet
Desire and seek

Love is coming
Listen to her sing

All that we want

Start up the chant
Utter the speech

Love is listening
She’s on the wing

Stepped out my door today
Now I’m on my way
Gonna sway in the foray

Headed into town

Mirror reflect
You’re the display

Do you see humanity?

LYRICS
We’re in need of a super secret agent
Free us from the clutches of the moment
Save us from our self-destruction
Our institution of confusion

Some super-sleuth
TO uncover the truth
A super hero
To return to zero
Reset?
Not Yet!

Call the Whitehouse. Call the President.
Man or mouse strength be lent
Know what I mean
Ring up the Queen

Some super-sleuth
TO uncover the truth
A super hero
To return to zero
Reset?
You bet!

LYRICS
Opaque couché
En Garde! Touché!

Can a color be ugly
Let’s look and see
Are your guts pretty
As pretty as can be

Have you ever looked within your skin
What are the tales of your entrails
Opaque couché
En Garde! Touché!

How can you suggest
A color’s the ugliest
If you don’t mind
Being color blind
Opaque couché
En Garde! Touché!

Look inside and see what you see
Are your guts pretty
As pretty as can be

Opaque Couché
Opaque Couché

The song is about a study of the ugliest color: “The agency GfK asked a thousand smokers which colour they found most visually offensive, with a view to covering cigarette packets with it. Pantone 448C, or opaque couché came out top. Respondents associated the colour with “dirty”, “death”, and “tar”.”  Well, before you call a color ugly, look at the color of your insides.

Won’t you
Or can’t you
Give love a chance

If you want your life to be won

Or would you
Give love a chance

It will thrill you
Give love a chance

Hmmm… I was approached by another GOOD cop today. That makes two… now, I don’t know what to do. How do you write a song about good cops? This is virgin territory for me. The working title is Peoplesmith. A “smith” is an artisan or craftsman. A goldsmith is a metalworker who specializes in working with gold and other precious metals. A Peoplesmith is a craftsman that works with people.

Treat ’em rough n’ handcuff

LYRICS
If I could be still
For a moment… I will
I could try
To figure out why

Watch the wold fly by
Until I get my fill
Why do we kill freewill
My, oh, my! Deep breath…. *sigh*

Not too introspective
Try to gain perspective
Sit and wonder why
The love does die

Chorus

Maybe at last
I could grab a grasp
Go back to moving fast
By-pass the time lapse
