bookmark_borderMountain Dew

LYRICS
When the mountain dew
Drips past your lips
There is something “knew”
Coming into view
Getting to know
What’s inside of you
Now you’ll know
Just what to do
Toast the gig
Do a big swig
Offer to jig

As that mountain dew
Drips past my lips
There is something “knew”
Coming into view
Getting to know
What’s inside of me
Now I’ll see
Just what to do
Toast the gig
Do a big swig
Offer to jig

As that mountain dew
Drips past our lips
There is something “knew”
Coming into view
Getting to know
What’s inside of us
Now we’ll know
Just what to do
Toast the gig
Do a big swig
Offer to jig

Staring sheer
Dropped jaw

How do you feel
Can this be real?
In a real reel
Did you hear
Reeling in the ears?

bookmark_borderThe Key to Your Heart

LYRICS
Come on lately
Getting freaky
Come on really
Lost your heart’s key?
Come on maybe
Come on I plea
Part with the key
… key to your heart
The key to start your heart

Common ground
In the sound
Can be found
Come on round
Hear what we’ll see
In your heart’s key
… key to your heart
The key to start your heart

bookmark_borderWithout Out

LYRICS
Muster up the strength and courage
To usher in our new age
Come find out
About inside out
Our insides can’t do without out
Not me nor you
Can make it through
Without out

We take out in
In continuum
Without out
We’d be in a vacuum
Our insides can’t do without out
Not me nor you
Can make it through
Without out

Muster up the strength and courage
To usher in our new age
Come find out
About inside out

bookmark_borderDid You See That Coming?

LYRICS
Hey, did you see that coming
Or is it out of left field
Did the thought cross your mind
Yet you refuse to yield?
Oh, wow
What now?

Find it surprising temperatures rising
Due to the lack of our compromising
Hey, did you see that coming
Or is it out of left field
Did the thought cross your mind
Yet you refuse to yield?
Oh, wow
What now?

Air all consuming causes confusing
The confusion among us causes division
Find it surprising temperatures rising
Due to the lack of our compromising
Hey, did you see that coming
Or is it out of left field
Did the thought cross your mind
Yet you refuse to yield?
Oh, wow
What now?

LYRICS
3 crosses up on Calvary
Yet only 1 comes to memory?
All 3 going to meet their maker
The life giver… the life taker
Easy come
Easy go
All in sum/some
Ego

Poet, philosopher, and priest
All will die to say the least
All 3 going to meet their maker
The life giver… the life taker
Easy come
Easy go
All in sum/some
Ego

When the ship is going down
Doesn’t matter which deck you’re on
We all go to meet our maker
The life giver… the life taker
Easy come
Easy go
All in sum/some

LYRICS
Is there a unicorn
Running around in your garden
Do they mourn
Little green men
Again… with the Martian
Fairy tales
And dragon scales
Up in a puff

Insist that you’re not dreaming
Scheming, those little green men

LYRICS
When down is up
And up is down
Things turn sidewards all around
Can True North be found?

The things I throw out to sea
All come back to me
The things I throw out to see
Come flooding back to me

Turn the hamper upside down
Dirty laundry hits the ground
All all can see your dirty laundry
You’ve come clean for all to see

bookmark_borderHow Does She Roll?

LYRICS
She’s centered in the middle
Yet still she leaves the riddle
How does she roll
Is there heart in her soul?
Solid as rock
The way she rolls

She’s really down to earth
But for what it’s worth
How does she roll
Is there heart in her soul?
Solid as rock
The way she rolls

She really gets around
Spinning round and round
How does she roll
Is there heart in her soul?
Solid as rock
The way she rolls

From our birth…
… humans…
The heart and soul
Of Mother Earth
Due to birth…
… Earth…
Giving birth
Earth

The way we roll with Mother Earth
Away we roll with Mother Earth

bookmark_borderBall and Chain

LYRICS
That ole ball and chain
Long as it remains
Going to weigh you down
That ole ball and chain
Causing grief and pain
Creates a terminal frown
They say there’s nothing that you can’t
With a lubricant
Do you have it in you
to slip on through
… slip on through

That ole ball and chain
Long as it remains
Going to weigh you down
That ole ball and chain
Hourglass… grain by grain
World stopped turning ’round
With a lubricant
Do you have it in you
to slip on through
… slip on through

That ole ball and chain
Long as it remains
Going to weigh you down
That ole ball and chain
Put ‘er on the last train
And upside down the frown
They say there’s nothing that you can’t
With a lubricant
Do you have it in you
to slip on through
… slip on through

… of the human race
Why so long in the face?
On the dream chase
You’re not off base

… oh my human race
Not a race to disgrace
On the dream chase
You’re not off base

Could and should make our case
On the dream chase
We’re not off base

… to our human race
We have to the best place
On the dream chase
We’re not off base

Lighten your load
Souls explode
Taken a stroll down sunset road
Ain’t time to begin

Time to begin
An axis spin

bookmark_borderSecret Weapon

LYRICS
Quite an abrupt stop
Fall from the top
If you don’t catch a draft
And make it aloft
Your life raft
To a landing oh so soft
Crack a smile
Goes the mile
Create a draft
Make ’em laugh
Humor’s human’s
Secret weapon
… sure does help cure

Strong and steady climb
to the top of your mind
One foot, then another
If you slip, recover
For sure, humor can cure
It’s in our nature
Crack a smile
Goes the mile
Create a draft
Make ’em laugh
Humor’s human’s
Secret weapon
… sure does help cure

From behind a cloud
The sun turned loud

Starting to see the light

Just blue sky remains

Lifting spirits forever high
Sunshine time
