LYRICS
Look around
Look what’s found
Build it up
Tear it down
Sand castle crasher
Roll out with the tide
Man-made basher
Too much pride to hide

Look around
Car of clowns
Buckle up
Hold it down
Sand castle crasher
Roll out with the tide
Man-made basher
Too much pride to hide

Look around
Shock abounds
Hey! What’s up?
Going down
Sand castle crasher
Roll out with the tide
Man-made basher
Too much pride to hide

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Does anyone anywhere know
How far to go?
Does everyone everywhere go
Too far to know?
May I suggest
The answers to your riddle
Is in the middle
Of your chest
… about the rest….

Does anyone anywhere care
Where we should start?
Is everyone everywhere aware
Start with “at heart”?
May I suggest
The answers to your riddle
Is in the middle
Of your chest
… about the rest….

Does anyone anywhere part
From the above?
To give a part of your heart
And share the love?
May I suggest
The answers to your riddle
Is in the middle
Of your chest
… about the rest….

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
I never had to be told
“Don’t touch the fire!”
As I started growing old
Realize situation’s dire
Sound alarms higher
Can anyone hear here?
Evidence is clear
Too early to expire

I never had to be told
“The love of life admire”
As my life unfolds
Realize situation’s dire
Sound alarms higher
Can anyone hear here?
Evidence is clear
Too early to expire

I never had to be told
“Don’t be a liar!”
Please don’t think me bold
Insisting situation’s dire
Sound alarms higher
Can anyone hear here?
Evidence is clear
Too early to expire

LYRICS
Come join in in song
You belong
Come join in in song
Sing along
The storm’s behind us now
Sunny skies ahead
And this my word and vow
To the light be led

Come join in in song
You belong
Come join in in song
Sing along
Water under the bridge
Take high upon the ridge
Think of what’s been said
To the light be led

Come join in in song
You belong
Come join in in song
Sing along
Let seas return to calm
Avert the atom bomb
May your foe, instead
To the light be led

LYRICS
After seeing no trace
Is that your caring face
Save the human race
All that jet fuel’s
Coming back to bite you
Right now
Tell those climate fools
How you’re gonna right it
Somehow

Realizing disgrace
Is that your concerned face
Save the human race
All that fossil fuel’s
Coming back to bite you
Right now
Tell those climate fools
How you’re gonna right it
Somehow

Be our saving grace
Put on your brave face
Save the human race
Don’t let the fools
Coming back to bite us
Right now
Tell those climate fools
How we’re gonna right it
Somehow

Save the… save the… save the human race

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
As it warms
Climate warns
The thin ice
Sliding on the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

As it thaws
Dropping jaws
The thin ice
Sliding on the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

As it melts
Tighten belts
The thin ice
Sliding on the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

Almost gone
Won’t be long
No more ice
Sinking in the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
From the early, early morning
’til the late, late night
You can hear I’m playing
In sheer delight

In sheer delight
Come clear insight
Idea ignite
In sheer delight

How much music can we make
Before we even reach daybreak
When that sun comes into sight
Hear us playing in sheer delight
In sheer delight
Come clear insight
Idea ignite
In sheer delight

From high noon to late afternoon
Making music can’t come too soon
Into the dark don’t need a light
we’re playing in sheer delight
In sheer delight
In sheer delight
Come clear insight
Idea ignite
In sheer delight

bookmark_borderA Sixth Sense

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Have you ever been
Swimming in the ocean
In a pool
In a school
Somehow seeming to know
How to go with the flow
A sixth sense
Of the essence
In the present
Expecting how it will go
In the flow

Imagine riding on a dragonfly
I just saw two passing by
Thinking of their point-of-view
Flying high to kiss the sky
Can you imagine, too?
A sixth sense
Of the essence
In the present
Expecting how it will go
In the flow

Chords: Em7 Am7 Em7 / Dm Am7 Em7
Instrumentation: Vocals, Guitar, Keyboard (Kurzweil)
An improvisational song written and recorded to a digital 6-track at Lake Wynonah while watching fish and dragonflies.

LYRICS
Can you ask her
If she has a dulcimer?
Can you ask him
If he can hum a hymn?
Everyone’s welcome
To come join in
We can spend all day
On the porch and play
Wadda ya say?
Come on out on the porch
And play
Come on out and play
Anyway
Come on out on the porch
Today
Come on out and play
Any way

My rhythm’s a lil’ lean
Do you have a tambourine?
If I had my choice
I’d love to add your voice
Sing it again
Everyone’s welcome
To come join in
We can spend all day
On the porch and play
Wadda ya say?
Come on out on the porch
And play

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Particle derived raindrops arise
The mass amassed depends on size
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

Evaporate
At an ever increasing rate
Participate
A pounding precipitate
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

What goes up must come down
Bob and weave… avoid the crown
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

The moral of the story
Don’t belittle
The vision and the glory
Of Chicken Little
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

See the rays are finally breaking through
Totally changing my point of view

Just in time for sunshine
To put insight in sight
I’m beginning to see the light

Just keeps getting better

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Thought I knew what I was looking for
Till I caught a glimpse in the mirror
Came to realize there’s so much more
Ought to know where I was headed to
All for naught… I have no clue
Come with real eyes to find you
Find the timing
And come to know
Light that’s shining
Into the glow

Followed the roads both far and near
Took till now to start coming clear
All this time I’ve been right here
Swallowed pride… wiped egg from face
Found out how to love embrace
All this time it’s been in place
Find the timing
And come to know
Light that’s shining
Into the glow

Is it all coming…
Is it all coming…

Is the undumbing…

To fear
In the rear
All coming…
Clear, near, here
If we start to steer
