Calling for yet another day
Well I’ve been thinking And my brains been making a racket Only dreaming Just to pass this time of day This sunny weather The cars are getting a suntan All these noises I guess I’ll lay in the shade. I look up To the moonlight Calling out for another day Cos I don‘t want to stay The seconds pass And soon The day is gone. When I start talking All my words start filling the room now No more space left So perhaps I’ll have to move On the road side The children are mocking the sun king In the river The fish watch the water rise. I look up to the moonlight Calling out for another day Cos I don‘t want to stay The seconds pass And soon The day is gone. Greens my color Grass is greener on the other side Imagination But my thinking is in reverse Here’s looking at you Because it’s better than using a mirror Guess I’ll go now Each day could be a blessing or a curse. I look up to the moonlight Calling out for another day Cos I don‘t want to stay The seconds pass And soon The day is gone. |

The Robbers Philosophy
I wear black With a sack on my back And like to cause a sensation Some like to give But I like to take My economy is apart of the nation I have my tools that I use for my trade And work at night but never the day I do the job the thing I do best Leave the scene of the crime and know I’ve been blessed I cut all my keys To fit all of the doors Without ever making a sound Enjoy your sleep While I take what you keep I promise they will never be found In the morning when you awaken You can judge my skills by the things I have taken If you have sense you will leave it alone Or the challenge is on and I’ll be back to your home Some would say I’m a criminal But they don’t understand what I do It’s a highly skilled occupation That’s not meant for the likes of you They are quick to judge me But I’ll let the judge decide Then again that will never happen Because I always have a place to hide I have my health And I have my wealth But am driven by hidden desire It’s in my blood And pumps through my veins The adrenaline will never retire The better the trick the better the fix A much better game if it’s not the same It’s cat and mouse and enjoys the play So I’ll fill up my sack and be on my way. |

Isn‘t it such a shame? (Red balloon)
Smiling Flying Red balloon in the air Drifting Sideways Without a whisper of care The owner in blue Has a tear in her pocket Hand clutching the void Arm hanging from socket Isn’t it such a shame? Tinker Taylor Solder and spy Different Reasons But one tells a lie The tinkers a friend Of the man who makes pockets The solder a hunter Of the spy who steals rockets Isn’t it such a shame? Laughing we hear From the people off reason Money is law Real truth is treason They captured the heavens And poisoned the water Killed all the ancients And kissed Satan’s daughter The video is now on pause Rich man Poor man Beggar man a thief Right or Wrong It’s a question of belief The rich man he steals While the poor man is waiting The beggar is hungry While the thief is debating Isn’t it such a shame? Walking Talking Falling asleep People Living It’s the hole that you dig Millions off moving lips Heads that are talking To the people who are sleeping While the stalkers are walking Isn’t it such a shame? The snowdrift is here And the snowman is smiling Looks up to the sky And sees the sun lying Searching the heavens And straight past the moon For a tear in a pocket Or a big red balloon The video is now on pause. |

I’ll be on my way
Against a lipstick sunset I saw a man drown He gave out a cry But there was nobody around Perhaps if I knew him He could have been a friend And I would have felt a loss To see his life end There’s no way of knowing The anonymous in the street The events in their lives And the secrets that they keep Never really knowing If they’ll be there the following day Like the man in the tin can Who sank beneath the waves? Who sank beneath the waves? A newsman on the TV Told me about a war today On how the rich oppressed the poor And hid the truth away Did the newsman expect anger? For the information that he gave If they all had been my friends I would have visited their graves But is this of any consequence Because the news man gets paid to read Will he change our attitudes? Or get our eyes to bleed Never really knowing If they’ll be there the next day So many images on TV Another war another day Another war another day There’s no way of knowing The anonymous in the street The events in their lives And the secrets that they keep Never really knowing If they’ll be there the next day Perhaps were only human So I’ll be on my way |

City Drug Mama
Back street driving Looking for a score See the sugar man arriving Going to blow some more Acid rain is coming All I do is ask Acid gives you pleasure Acid going to make it last. All these people around me ****ing with my head Outside in the garden Cupid’s laying dead Take my gun and bullets And bring the mothers down Or catch the 7 freeways And burn the other side of town. Mama loves her baby Mama takes away the pain Mama loves your money Mama eats away your brain Mama she is coming All you do is ask Mama gives you pleasure Mamas going to make it last. All these people around me ****ing with my head Outside in the garden Cupid’s laying dead Take my gun and bullets And bring the mothers down Or catch the 7 freeways And burn the other side of town. Drug city mama The smell of death at night Drug mama thinks it’s pretty The city full of live The city it is coming All you do is ask The city gives you pleasure City going to make it last. All these people around me ****ing with my head Outside in the garden Cupid’s laying dead Take my gun and bullets And bring the mothers down Or catch the 7 freeways And burn the other side of town. |

I’ve got a story
I’ve got a story But it’s never been clear I’ll tell you my story If you buy me a beer But the paper is gone And I don’t think - I can remember it all I’ve been around And I’ve rung me a bell I’ve finished my beer Now I’m visiting hell And I’m not sure If I remember the words that I wanted to say Pour me reason As I sleep on the bar Read my fortune And I’ll sell you my car Buy me strings For my broken guitar And I guess it’s over The star has now gone So I’ll disappear I’ll sing you a song If you turn off the lights The children are sleeping And I’ve missed my last flight My pockets are full With broken notes for an alibi Love is a danger But so are the rocks I’ll have a whisky an ice And reset the clocks The cigarette is out All I have - is the smoke in my eyes? Pour me reason As I sleep on the bar Read my fortune And I’ll sell you my car Buy me strings For my broken guitar And I guess it’s over The star has now gone So I’ll disappear I have this riddle Or so I’ve been told Give me a password Help crack this code The fuse is lit Nobody’s home - they’re all on holiday Worn these shoes And they’re causing me pain I would have carried on walking But it started to rain So I need a drink To help me forget - the direction I’m in Lost my story Because I left it out side I got my reasons And they can’t be denied Pour me another Because it’s here I’ll reside And I guess it’s over The star has now gone So I’ll disappear |

The poppy fields lament
Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line In this world of madness I was never taught to swim So now I drown in insanity With these emotions I hold within Wish upon a shooting star In the hopes your dreams will come true One person’s dreams another’s nightmare You can’t separate the two You can’t separate the two Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line And the solders are prophets and poets For the children not yet born But no one will ever remember our names Until there on the stone And when this war is over And the red has mixed with green They will bury us in the poppy fields To hide what we have seen To hide what we have seen Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line And what do we say to the orphans The reasons for our wars When we fight for a king and country Not knowing what the killing is for As I lay here under the moon In my final place of rest The church will send me prayers To say that I am blessed Your church will send me prayers To say that I am blessed To say that I am blessed But my blessing is this Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line |

Beautiful child
A miracle within the making I see your eyes you don’t see me Your world a future that’s before you Unique for those who want to see O beautiful child O beautiful child O beautiful child You’re standing here upon the threshold But you don’t understand the power Your sweet expression painting innocence As you breathe in your first hour beautiful child beautiful child beautiful child This peace and love that surrounds you Protects you from the world outside Its only time when it will greet you And you’ll have lost your place to hide beautiful child beautiful child beautiful child Sleep sweetly new my sweetheart Dreams your dreams before you grow And when you wake we will remind you About the thing we only know beautiful child beautiful child beautiful child |

Love you to death
He didn’t care if she was right Bad words expressed within a fight But she forgave him any way His temper’s always there to stay He says he’s sorry - she strokes his hair A simple gesture to show she cares Speaks gentle words that it’s ok Her heart is always there to stay One day he’ll be alone with to much time to call his own And remember once he had a wife And his arguments took years of her life But he still thinks that it’s ok But he still thinks that it’s ok She never thinks about herself A sacrifice upon her health She works her fingers to the bone Her heart is always in the home She tries to do the best she can Shop in the rain while pushing pram Thinks to herself that it’s ok The pain is always there to stay One day she’ll be in her grave. Born a woman but died a slave Then the old man can write on her stone She died to make a happy home And in her grave she’ll always stay And in her grave she’ll always stay Our man back home will marry again Making promises wrapped around pain A matter of time for the first fight It doesn’t matter he’s always right He’s born to disagree The only words he knows are I and me Don’t you find it comforting to? To think this bastard could easily be you That’s your decision ok That’s your decision ok So who’s to say what’s right or wrong Where understanding should belong I heard that religion makes a war It kills but doesn’t know what for It kneels and then it starts to pray The killings always there to stay |

The cat that thought it was a story
Once upon a time there was a cat that thought it was a story! Yes you may find that strange to believe but assure you there was, and it was also not without good reason, because this cat thought she was a book! The cat was originally a birthday present for little Samantha who was 8 at the time, but as we all know there are those who quickly forget when something new and shiny comes along to attract their attention. Well now it was Samantha’s 11th birthday party and our little cat was forgotten about, and with sadness in her eyes, she watched everybody having fun, and with saddness in her eyes counted the new present being placed on the big table. Eventually our little cat could take no more and left to go outside with tears in her eyes, and it was not long after she went outside that she bumped into dog!! Hello said that dog what are you looking so miserable about! The little cat looked up and said .. Nobody will read me!! The dog laughed and said you’re a cat and not a book, let me show you – I will chase you & then the dog just left. The little cat was not pleased about this humor and walked on until she bumped into a lamp post. The lamppost looked annoyed and said – Hey do you mind! The little cat apologized & asked if he could read her and the lamppost just laughed, and almost dropped his light bulb in the process! Our poor friend ran away from the lamppost and cried her eyes out, and then as she started wiping her tears away, she saw another cat approaching her dressed as Napoleon! The cat looking like Napoleon asked.. Madam av U zeen mijn army coz eye zeem to beee lost!!!! No our little cat replied but if you like you can read me!! The cat looking like Napoleon waved his paw in the air and said Madan U ar craazey, and pleez moov out of ze way I must vind mijn army!! By now are little cat had enough and just ran as fast as she could to find a place to be alone. Eventually she stopped because the tears in her eye prevented her from seeing where she was going. It was then she caught a scent in her nose, and it made her think about faint memories, and since cats are curious by nature, she decided to follow it. It was not long she came to a doorway, and quite naturally she walked through only to be astonished by what she saw. There before her eyes were hundreds and hundreds of books, all in nice rows and covers of shiny bright colors. Yes she had found herself in the local public library. Our little cat immediately felt at home, and each book was like a personal friend to her, and her love stretched out to every title she could see. In the far corner of the library she saw a shelf with a nice cozy space between two big encyclopedias, and without hesitation jumped up , nestled down and quickly fell asleep with her friends that understood & guarded her. As she was asleep it was natural for her not to be unaware of a little girl in a bright red coat walk into the library with her mother. It was also natural for her not to notice the little girl in the bright red coat pick her gently up, so she could be taken home to be read. And there ends the story of our friend who was recognized for who she was, and every page that was read was followed by a new chapter to be enjoyed. The end. |

Mysteries
She held a mystery Calm within a storm Romanced conversation The night long We sat together Light within her eyes Hiding her fears Like the clouds Hide rain in the skies Fears that are laughing Are the words within the lines? False courage leads a blind path That we take On our own If we can find what we want If we can find what we need If we can speak of the things that we fear That we fear But what is a mystery If we chose to never hide Do people really have to tell? There secrets Deep inside Deep inside Deep inside Don’t lose your mystery But I’ll take away your fears And the words that were never spoken Will be removed from all those years And we’ll keep the laughter To shine within our eyes Never hiding fears Like the clouds Hide rain in the skies |

Fears of Devolution
Trembling in your arms In your arms Of devolution Trembling in my fears In your fears Of constitution Waking up in the dead of night Feeling so cold Were growing old I changed my eyes Nothing new No revelation I turned to touch Touch your skin With hesitation The photographs are burning now To keep us warm Ashes blow away Tell me now is this what life is meant to be Bliss I sold my soul for Is this eternity? Who turned the lights out? And threw away the key Was it really you? Or was it me. The TV is still on Still on But tuned into no station I light a cigarette Chewed the smoke No consolation The phoenix rose and died away It won’t be coming back Another day Tell me now is this what life is meant to be Bliss I sold my soul for Is this eternity? Who turned the lights out? And threw away the key Was it really you? Or was it me. |

Sometimes
Sometimes Sometimes when I wake up Sometimes when I get up I can feel alive. Some days Some days I can see things Some days I can think good things I know for I have tried I try I try to say things I try to share things But they fade into the sky. Why then Why then people don’t listen Why then people don’t reason Even when I tried. Tell me Will they ever kiss me? Would they ever miss me? Even if I died. Are there Are there any reasons? For the changing of the seasons Just like the circle of life. Sometimes Like the circle of life. |
