Coversong originally made famous by The Rolling Stones
Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards

      A         G               A   A G
I was born in a cross-fire hurricane 
      A            G                 A   A G
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain
         C   G     D                   A  
But it's all right now, in fact it's a gas
         C   G          D
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash
       A
It's a gas gas gas

I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag
I was schooled with a strap right across my back
But it's all right now, in fact it's a gas
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash
It's a gas gas gas

I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread, yeah, yeah, yeah 
I was crowned with a spike right thru my head
But it's all right now, in fact it's a gas
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash
It's a gas gas gas

Jumping Jack Flash, it's a gas 4x

LYRICS
Can you teach me how to swim?
I’m a lil’fraid to jump in
Can you teach me how to swim?
I don’t know where to begin

Relax! Breath in
Take note
You’ll float
Take a
Deep breath
Avoid
The depth
Get to know the flow

Can you teach me how to swim?
I’m afraid to dive in
Can you teach me how to swim?
I ain’t dying to try drowning

LYRICS
Quasi-synchronicity
Sure beats monotony
Oh the ecstasy
Of diversity
God bless me

Luke-warm milk-toast
Must warn… that ain’t “the most”

Thank the Lord for chaos theory
Quasi-synchronicity
The certainty of uncertainty
The un-ordered system I am

LYRICS
Your logic’s slippery
It eludes me
How you can claim any sanity
Ooooh sooooo slippery

Beyond slippery
It scares me
Lookin’ like criminal insanity
Ooooh sooooo slippery

Your logic’s slippery
Downright slimey
Void of any dignity
Ooooh sooooo slippery

LYRICS
I… don’t know why
Does it make you cry
Watching children die

Why… let our fight
Cause children’s plight
Babies screaming in the night

Dropping bombs like we don’t care
Dropping bombs everywhere

I… don’t know why
We don’t try
To testify

Why do we kill
Are we mentally ill
Kill, kill, kill!

LYRICS
I’ve been waiting so long to write a song… for you
Let’s hope I can pull through
I can’t think quick… with the lyric (lyrical) to describe you
You’re beyond the word… how can that be heard?
It’s time the world heard
Get to experience the ecstasy … get to see the beauty… ahhh
I’ve been waiting so long to write a song for you
After all, it’s the least I can do
Quick, lyric… lyrical? So thankful you’re so beautiful
You’re so beautiful to all
The way you meet, the way you treat, the way you greet
Everything. Everybody. Makes me want to sing about the beauty you bring
I’ve been waiting so long. So long. So-long.
To write this song for you
Praying I can pull through

A song inspired by The Beatles and Tom Petty.

LYRICS
You gotta get back
Get back! Get back?
You don’t have to live like a refugee

When I was young my mama said, you’re better off not being dead
Get back! Get back?
You don’t have to live like a refugee

My mama told me, “you don’t have to live like a refugee”

LYRICS
Ho, ho, here we go gliding through the snow
On the way we say “Happy holiday!”
Ho, ho, here we go gliding through the snow
On the way we sing a caroling thing

A nod to Feliz Navidad
And, ooooh! O Tannenbaum
What do you do where you come from?
Where to begin… what’s your country of origin?

Then, again…
Why order a border?
For what it’s worth, we’re all from Earth!
What’s your rock of origin? Bring it home again! What’s your rock of origin?

LYRICS
Are there any ignoramuses amongst us?
Enormous ignorant ignoramus… I’m hellbent… go back from where you went
It’s easy to see you hate a refugee
If it were up to me…
I’d send you right back to where you came from
Up your mother’s vagina!
Yes, you’re that dumb
Not her bum…
Up your mother’s vagina!
You’re a lot of bull in a shop of china
It ain’t hard to partake that something’s gonna break
Go back to where you came from
Next, to your mother’s bum
Up your mother’s vagina
Nothin’ could be fine-a

bookmark_borderIgneous Ignoramus

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
How could I not know about the igneous flow
I’m just an igneous ignoramus
After investigation, one realizes… da… there’s no enigma
Quartz crystallizes from molten magma
A six-sided prism terminating in a six-sided pyramid
Down-to-earth geotropism hid under an inside-out geode lid
Cryptocrystalline can hardly be seen
Aggregate into an agate and see what you get

Some people only know the volcano
I must confess… I was an igneous ignoramus
Only getting to know about a lava flow (The mama of molten magma)
Then, my sights started to grow
Now I’m inclusive of extrusive and intrusive
Why not get ’em while they’re hot… these rocks rock
Crystals… fractals… for sure, crystals — fractals found in nature
Mandelbrot brought “beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That’s fractals.”
Might I add to this fad “beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That’s quartz crystals.”

LYRICS
All the leaves have fallen
Have we already forgotten
Winter has yet to start
Yet, we feel cold at heart

The cold-hearted started
There’s no room in the inn
Ain’t that a sin?
The cold-hearted started
Why did you bother to come?
Go back to where you’re from!

The days are growing shorter
Cold nights for the squatter
Those that roam far from home
Are left to feel on their own

For those that try and try
Yet, others wish to die
Why condemn the tried?
You’ve tried and crucified

LYRICS
Want to find a bus for all of us
To take a magical mystery tour
A roadtrip for sure
On the magic bus
Come on! Hop on the bus with us!
The air there is thick with music
While we gain a piece of mind with a peace that’s mine
Drive for hours with a piece of peace that’s yours
’till we feel fine with a peaceful piece of ours
Just hop on the bus, Gus… don’t need to discuss much
Gonna sing and frolic and such
Quick! Hop on the bus
