LYRICS
How about that
A pat on the4 back
Thanks, my friend
I needed that
Hey, my friend
Need a free lunch
Lend a hand
I had a hunch
Your standing
In understanding
Ranks at the top
Your standards
Are upstanding
They never stop

How about that
A pat on the4 back
Thanks, my friend
I needed that
How about that
An “I love you”
The thing you do
Appreciate that

In understanding
Ranks at the top
Your standards
Are upstanding
They never stop

bookmark_borderBattle of Words

LYRICS
If they won’t believe
What they can’t conceive
Maybe it’s better that way
They can’t comprehend
No, don’t understand
What it is what you say
Maybe it’s better that way
Well, bit my tongue
Battle of words
War is won/one

Can’t get their head ’round
Tongue tied and lips bound
It’s probably better that way
They can’t comprehend
No, don’t understand
What it is what you say
Maybe it’s better that way
Well, bit my tongue
Battle of words
War is won/one

LYRICS
Do you know how far
To the nearest star
Can you tell be how far
Can I catch a ride to the other side
Gravitational tide
Continue on
The continuum
Surfin’ spacetime
Continue on
The continuum
Ride the tide, I am

Do you know how far
To intelligent life
Void of hate and strife
Can I catch a ride
To the inside (outside)
Intellectual tide
Continue on
The continuum
Surfin’ spacetime
Continue on
The continuum
Ride the tide, I am

bookmark_borderAbout Love

LYRICS
Slipped, tripped, and tricked
Into love again
I swore I wouldn’t be singing
About love again
I swore I wouldn’t be singing
Another love song
What went wrong?

At least this time around
At least this time I’ve found
It’s not me falling

Don’t get me wrong
I love love when the love is good
When the love is good
I’d sing it if I could

Slipped, tripped, and tricked
Into love again
I swore I wouldn’t be singing
About love again
I swore I wouldn’t be singing
Another love song
What went wrong?

bookmark_borderThe Pendulum

LYRICS
The pendulum starts to shift and slide
On a ride to the other side
At the top it comes to a stop
Into focus
At the end it starts to descend
Right back toward us

Heard what you said
Looked ahead
Ducked my head
I’m just in time
The pendulum starts to shift and slide
On a ride to the other side
At the top it comes to a stop
Into focus
At the end it starts to descend
Right back toward us

LYRICS
The meat on the bone
Has found its way home
Now the hunger zone
Is left all alone
(Is left alone)

Now to gnaw the bone
Fine shine teeth hone
Since the hunger zone
Was left all alone
(Was left alone)

bookmark_borderBoneless

LYRICS
All a sudden the dog
Has lost his bone
Left in a fog
He’s all alone
Howling at the moon
A midnight loon… a see
Lunacy
See through the eyes of lunacy
Is the dark side of lunar
That far
Or is the prism’s light
Just right
Soon… in flight to the moon

bookmark_borderTiger’s Tale

LYRICS
Grabbed a tiger by the tail
Spun around
Started to wail
“Hold on tight with all your might
Make a sound
It never fails”
Singing songs of age and rage
Remembering Turn the Page
n’ Hard rockin’ tales

Grabbed a spider… epic fail
Spun around
Started to wail
“Might let go? Yes, that’s right
Make a sound
It never fails”
Singing songs of age and rage
Remembering Turn the Page
n’ Hard rockin’ tales

Grabbed a lover, oh, so frail
Spun around
Started to wail
“Think I might hold the light
Make a sound
It never fails”
Singing songs of hormone rage
Remembering Turn the Page
n’ Hard rockin’ tales

LYRICS
Come here
Come hear
The End
Steer clear
Be the notion
Of an object in motion
You slide through
To the other side
… slide….

Steer clear
Of here
The End
Is near
Be the notion
Of an object in motion
You slide through
To the other side
… slide….

Swerve, veer
Steer clear
to bend
The End
Be the notion
Of an object in motion
You slide through
To the other side
… slide….

bookmark_borderGetting Free

LYRICS
Getting free is up to me
Completely
Staying free
What’s the degree
Of difficulty
To have life’s magic
And turn it into music?

Living free is up to me
Certainly
Giving free…
What’s the degree
Of difficulty
To have life’s magic
And turn it into music?

Breaking free is up to me
Totally
Reality free
What’s the difference
To your sanity
To have life’s magic
And turn it into music?

LYRICS
Turning water into wine
(A mighty fine wine)
Slowing the sands of our time
(A might fine time)
Will you dance with me
In serendipity

Chasing ilk into dream

Will you dance with me

bookmark_borderMake Your Mark (White Light)

LYRICS
Time to make your mark
Take us out of the dark
Bridge the schism
Though the prism
Convert to white light
Revert to white light
See…
All the wave lengths
At equal intensity
… see… less
Colorless
Restore to white light
More, more, more white light
Please give me back sight
And the colors bright
Sure more pure white light
