LYRICS
Spring is in the air
There’s a bounce in your hair
With blooms of sweet perfume
There’s love for us to share
Senses become aware
Flowerchild blossom… and then some
Wall-to-wall carpet of green
Fills the scene
Graced by lavender lace
… love this place

Altitude in attitude
Vibration elevation
A melody session
Full of passion
Pours from the pores
Of what the spring brings
The songbird sings
Whistling words of wisdom
In Her kingdom

LYRICS
So, this is it?
This is the ticket?
And, I paid all my good money for it?
Regret the debt you bet
Regret the debt you bet?
You may have meant no harm
When you bet the farm
Now, harm done
Remains numb
Cost of fun
Having none?

LYRICS
Tell me what?
This may smell alright to you
But, as for me… there’s a phew
I’m not suggesting it’s emitting from you
Or there’s a possibility that there’s anything you can do
But for me, there’s a phew
For me… P.U.
To sit downwind
And think what that wind’s been through
And to think where that wind might have been
A phew comes wafting through
It’s a nasty phew

LYRICS
For others, they may
For me, there’s no way
No, can’t wait for May
To have a nice day
Way past-due today
No, can’t wait for May

Finally, no clouds stray
Nice day comes our way
Yes! This is the day
Let’s have a nice day
Let’s make it today
Moods swing the right way

LYRICS
Why don’t we try that again
Convinced the thrill’s not gone
Won’t you join in the song
Feeling’s coming on strong
Is one in a million
Just and opinion?

Where do you want to begin
Why don’t we try it again
Forego diminishing returns
This ole heart still yearns
The fire inside still burns
Is one in a million
Just an opinion
With those sort of odds
Prying to the wrong gods

LYRICS
It’s been a long day pounding in nails
I suppose in comparison it pales
Then being nailed — crucified
They say back in the day
That’s the way
Martyrs died
Widows cried

Did they say…
Did they say there’s dues ya have to pay

LYRICS
Incoming! Incoming!
Pilot to bombardier
If death you fear
You better hunker down
Hunker down!
Out fox the fox
Take command of her
Whole hole
Goal: foxhole
Hunker down
Quit foolin’ round
A serious situation
To the conundrum of a different drummer
Emancipation frustration
Incoming in comer
Where there is a will
There is a way
This will will weigh

LYRICS
One toppled over backwards
The other fell to his knees
Ode to the power of our words
No , you can’t just do as you please
Oh, the cons of pronouns
The proposition of a preposition
A Book Of Proverb of verbs
…. observes….

As one becomes dumbfounded
Another is astounded
Words are mightier than swords
And in lifting spirits onward
Oh the pros of conjunctions
Or adjectives that agitate
Perplex with sentences complex

LYRICS
Something tells me
We’ve been here before
Wait! Stop now
Peculiar ritual walking in a circle
Before going further any more
Better straighten out some how
Now!
No need to panic
If you think quick
About the basic facts
… just relax
’cause anxiety
Will screw you for sure
Wait! Stop now
Just relax
Don’t have a heart attack
Try saying a nursery rhyme
To bring you back into time
1, 2
1, 2, 3, 4
Mary had a little lamb
And tied it to a heater
Every time it turned around… it burned it’s little seater

LYRICS
Turnabout! Tag… and you’re it
Figure out there’s no way to quit?
If you hide, I will seek
Seven days in a week
You’re saying red rover, red rover?
I’m coming right over

Turnabout! Tag… and you’re it
Figure out there’s no way to quit?
When you whisper rumors down the lane
Will it ever end the same
If it’s follow the leader, I’m your man
Come on! Can you kick the can?

Turnabout! Tag… and you’re it
Figure out there’s no way to quit?
Marco? Polo! Open your eyes
This may come as a surprise
Spin the bottle is the only game
That makes me feel I’ll never be the same

LYRICS
They call him “salt of the earth”
Ever since his birth
But, aren’t we all mineral… after all?
Some say we’re made from clay
They don’t kid ’bout Adam’s rib
Hard to believe they made ‘er Eve
From dust to dust to dust to dust
Ohhh, the greed… the lust
To dust to dust to dust
Heaven or bust!
Just a hitchhiker on this mass
Don’t mean to be a smacked ass
But, when ya teach hypocrisy class
I just don’t know how long I’ll last
A passenger of the orbit
Really hoping to absorb it
If our days are numbered… spread wit

From dust to dust to dust to dust
Ohhh, the greed… the lust
To dust to dust to dust
Heaven or bust!
Amen
