When You Coming Down

 

When you coming down?
Been so long since we've seen ya
When you coming round
Don't ya know we really miss ya?

And we'll always have the memories
And we'll always send our cards
But when the road begins to drag us down

We can be lonely then
That's when we need ya friend
yes we do

When you come to town
Leave behind the scenery
We'll be hanging out
Make sure you stop by to see us

And we'll always have epiphany
And we'll always have the stars
But if the wisdom leads you out of town

Remember Bethlehem
Where we began as friends
long ago

If your zooming out
Remember times we had together
If you need an out
Our doors are always open to ya

And we'll always have infinity
And we'll always have our hearts
But if you find your reaching out too far
We'll pull you in again
We're not your only friends
but we'll do

Just Right (Edit)

 

Warm sand under my feet
The feeling can't be beat
Strong stars fill the sky at night
The feeling is just right

The galaxies are burning
As I hold your hand
Our two sets of eyes are learning
About this painted land

This land does my dreaming for me
Animal sounds turn into song
You're dancing to it
Her hair runs soft and long

Let's tremble for a while
Silver tears beat our skins
Evening wears an honest smile
And I wear a warm grin

The mother's drums are pounding
Beating human hearts
Listen to the thunder sounding
As our own lightening darts

This land does my dreaming for me
Animal sounds turn into song
You're dancing to it
Her hair runs soft and long

Lion Supper

 

I'm on the run
I'm on the run
I'm chasing a lion, hunting him down
I'm on the run

I'm on the run
I'm on the run
Knife by my side and a big old gun
I'm on the run

Lion hunting's frightening
If you don't know what you're doing
I don't know what I'm doing

I'm on the run
I'm on the run
There's a big old lion hunting me down
I'm on the run

I'm on the run
I'm on the run
I'm hiding in the bushes and behind the trees
I'm on the run

Have Fun

 

Swimmin pools
are cool
but don't mess
with the lifegaurd's rules

goggles can
help you see
when you swim
down to the tea party

walk
don't run
swim
it's fun

it's fun in the sun
it's easy to learn how to play
just laugh and swim the day away
have fun in the sun
hey hey hey
HAVE FUN!!!

wavin' fans
in the sand;
the beach is hot
but in demand

sunglasses can
help you see
when you're cruisin'
round that beach party

walk
don't run
swim
it's fun

it's fun in the sun
it's easy to learn how to play
just laugh and swim the day away
have fun in the sun
hey hey hey
HAVE FUN!!!

Loaded with Love

 

Looking out from her bedroom window
I see my life flash right before my eyes
What can I do to make this feeling stay?
What can I do to win over this life?

As for me now I gotta move on
But somehow I gotta keep both feet on the ground
Taking my love and loading it on my back
Leaving her home with my life put up and packed

I'd like to stay here with her for the rest of my life
But I know a part of life is leaving

Oooh I'm gonna miss this girl when I'm gone
I'll be waiting for her for so long

Gotta get back to my life on the mainland
But I'll be thinking for two from now on
Love fills your life in the strangest places
It leaves you with nowhere to hide with the light on

I'm putting my life in her control
So she'll be with me wherever I'm going

Still I'm gonna miss that girl when I'm gone

Truly Trudy

 

Trudy
Tell me truly
Why do you weigh yourself down?
Doesn’t it all make you tired?

Trudy
Tell me truly
Why do you weigh yourself down?
Doesn’t it all make you tired?

You run you away from natural beauty
Trudy
All that work for the stare of a stranger
Dangerous distant love at that
All that pain will chip away quickly
Under the wonderful sun

Just tell me truly trudy

Remember back
To sidewalk cracks
And barefoot jungle wars

You didn’t need
The shame or greed
But we all grow up of course

It’s truly a shame
Truly a shame
Please forget yourself

You’ve taken my pain
For personal gain
Get out from under that shelf

Seasons Reasons

 

Funner wearing summer starlight
Freer moving summer clothes
The sun wiggles his toes
In the sand and on the sea

And she's pointing right at me
I don't care where you are
You're the center of the universe

Easy going autumn colors
Painted leaves are falling home
I didn't know death could glow
Radiating beauty

When it comes time for me to go home
Now I know where I'll go
To the source of the universe

Peaceful calm falls onto winter
Silent whites throughout the night
The snows letting us know
It's not the season for a fight

And thank God for time to rest in peace
And that's what lets you know
All is well in the universe

Love is brewing in your minds eye
Winters springing into life
The birds sing in the trees
Songs of amore and delight

And these songs will bring men to their knees
And the women will agree
Love created the universe

Out on the Breaks

 

Out on the breaks
And I’m tired of working
Easier just to sit out on the breaks
That’s the only place where I’m not hurrying

Out on the breaks
They ain’t got no stakes
So no mistakes
Out on the breaks

No tricks or games
And no lying or hurting
Bumper stickers only give you loving
No teasing the girls are really flirting

Out on the breaks
Give what you take
You don’t need to shake
Out on the breaks

Out on the breaks
Life is slow
No exerting
Everything flows natural on the breaks
Easy this and that no need for learning

Out on the breaks
We’ve got it made
Lay in the shade
Out on the breaks

Good Work

 

Standing in the city drinking rum
Engaged in conversation with a bum
Look at all the faces going different places
Another working day is done

Every place that you go
Everyone is working
They're trying to make it
And they're doing good work

Riding along in the country
Looking at the setting sun
But everybody else is dragging in the harvest
Another working day is done

Every place that you go
Everyone is working
They're trying to make it
And they're doing good work


14

Everything That You Do

 

Everything that you do
doesn't have to benefit you
There are things that you can do
for other people other than you

Wax your neighbors car for free
Treat your friends at an eatery
Read a story to a child
Let their imagination run wild
Help your mother clean the house
Put the trap out for the mouse
Scrub the tiles now in the tub,
here the brush go "rub a dub"

If you think there's nothing to do
then I got news for you
There is always something to do
now don't you know it's true

There's always something to do,
something to do,
something to do There's always somebody who,
somebody who needs you

Everything that you do
doesn't have to benefit you
There are things that you can do
for other people other than you

Get up from your lazy chair
Fly a kite up in the air
Exercise is good and fun
Take a jog now take a run
Rescue a cat up in a tree
But watch out for that nest of bees
Change the tire of a roadside stranger,
for all you know, he may be in danger

If you think there's nothing to do
than I got news for you
There is always something to do
now don't you know it's true

There's always something to do,
something to do, something to do.
There's always somebody who,
somebody who needs you.

Computers Are Bad

 

We're done with commuters
We can travel through computers
We are done with paper letters
I use my screen and it's much better

We don't like to go outside
We don't like to go outside
Our mainframes keep us satisfied
Our mainframes keep us satisfied

Why bother to socialize when you can chat in disguise?
I can be more easily open when I hide behind my modem

These are things that I dislike:
To walk or jog or ride a bike
These are things that I ignore
The trees the sun they are a bore

We don't like to go outside
We don't like to go outside

There's no need to leave the house
With eyes on screen and hand on mouse


17

Pass Away

 

I know it's dying
What can I do?
I watch it pass away
And I can't care
Cause then I'd be dieing too

It's a part of me
So dear
So very near
I just can't stand to see
This world take it easily

Maybe if it were gone
I'd just get the blues
But it's trapped silently
Stirring my soul
Waiting to let go
Let go!

Quaker In The Kitchen

 

Well there's a grape out in the country
A raisin up in the pantry
A field full of beans, a tin full of coffee

Well I can see the blue sky
From the field where I lie
Or I can walk on the tiles

Well there's a grape out in the country
A raisin up in the pantry
A wild field of cabbage and lettuce in the icebox

Well there's a grape out in the country
A raisin up in the pantry
A field full of wheat flowing to the breadbox

There's a lover in the land
And there's a quaker in the kitchen....

This land is your land
This land is my land
This land is God's land

Balance Your Day

 

potatoes and gravy
weren't made by being lazy
it took work
hard hard work

a bat n' ball
don't mean nothin' at all
'less you play
go on and play

apply yourself
and in the end
you will find yourself
a better man
work
play
work
play
is the healthy way
for anyday

to get bricks and mortar
into perfect order
it takes work
hard hard work

soccer balls n' cleats
can't achieve any feats
'less you play
go on and play

apply yourself
and in the end
you will find yourself
a better man
work
play
work
play
is the healthy way
for anyday

In The Jungle

 

There's a colorful parrot talking down to me
Speaking my language from high up in a tree
There a lioness lion in the shade on the ground
She's not like the parrot, she doesn't make a sound

In the jungle
In the jungle
There's variety
It's it's own diverse society

There's a man on a hunt carrying a spear
And when he gets sad, he sheds a tear
There's a snake up in a tree about the height of a ladder
He never gets sad, cause nothing's ever the matter

In the jungle
In the jungle
There's variety
It's it's own diverse society

There's a pirate on the coast sailing into shore
If he doesn't find a treasure then he's journey's a bore
There's a monkey on the beach carrying a diamond ring
He says "It's just a part of matter. It doesn't mean a thing."

In the jungle
In the jungle
There's variety
It's it's own diverse society

New Year's

 

Gonna take my leave
Gonna take my pay
For the new years eve
For the new years day

Going with some friends out to a party
The new years way
Colorful cone hats, silly whistle zaps
And don't forget the schnaps, and the champagne too

Gonna meet a girl by the christmas tree
Well talk about the memories
Then I'll kiss her too

Gonna stay up late
Till the new years day
When the clock strikes twelve
And a new year comes to stay

Gonna twirl around, spin up and down
Gonna dance till I get my fill
Then I'll blow my top on a table top
and say HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I hope your new years great
And though the sorrows they do come
I hope you find a way
Like we did New Years Day

Dirty Clothes Blues

 

All my baby ever talks about to me
Is getting my clothes on the line
Well if our loves boiled down to dirty laundry
I ain't got time

To stay round dumbfound
Breaking my back downtown
While she's soap opera candy bathtub feeling fine

Chorus: I said, "oh I gotta move out"
I left my dirty clothes my baby and my house

But don't you worry cause the house wasn't much to me
It ain't worth a dime
6 stairs, busted pipes, gas leaking
It ain't fit for life

And all the big mouthed fussy neighbors
Dabble in some kind of crime
I'm sick of living in a neighborhood
nicknamed "swine"

Chorus

Packed my clean clothes in my sack
I made some sandwiches and
Started heading south
Knew all my worries and my troubles were gone when I
Stepped outta that house


Gotta book by Bukowski and a bottle a wine
So now I'm sitting on the south bay feeling fine

Chorus


25

Relief

 

She's got love in her eyes
But i've got troubles inside
Oh, dreams
Hopeful dreams of all i need

What a relief she is

One of a kind
Healing in the shadows
Sleep
I can finally sleep with you next to me

Noticing Ghosts

 

Outdoor open air becomes me
Pass that broken luck right by
The view from here is mighty clear
But the haze of dust is hanging high
And I can't see the mystery that
tricks me every night
It's a mistake and I know it

I'm half awake and all asleep
A minor set of shakes
Honest eyes don't last long

Just give me more than gravel to chew on
Despite the doors make sure I get through one
Let me loose from calling after ghosts
Who coast right by with couples in doubles
