This is love!
This is love!
Who doesn’t know,
This is love!

One understands when they’re holding hands
It’s plain for all to see
Two hearts as one under the sun
“I do” for eternity

This is love!
This is love!
Who doesn’t know,
This is love!

She loves his style of courtesy
When it comes to “loving me”
He loves her style — generosity
Spreading smiles… living free

This is love!
This is love!
Who doesn’t know,
This is love!

Hearts opening
Our angel sings
As you exchange the rings

Now an undercover angel
Doing well with spirit stealth

Now an undercover angel
Granted eternal health

So, ours soars with the angels
All her children ring their bells
Joined the choir that sings with wings

Gotta get back on my feet

Defeat defeat
When my heart’s complete

Maybe if I help the world
Before I get too old
The idea ain’t that bold
Oldest story ever told

No reason. There is no “why?”
We’re all going to die
Will you transcend the sky
Because you decide to try

I’m asking you…
I’m begging you

It’s so lonely at home without you
Can’t hardly cry myself to sleep
No matter how I weep
I don’t know what to do
When are you coming home

Where am I going now?

When is she coming home
When is she?

When is she?

Bubbling over
You know how to make the glass overflow
Bubbling over
Finer than the finest wine… fine, fine, fine

A perfect blend to help hearts mend
Bubbling over
With a love finer than champagne
You’re the champion
Shower our “our”
Love bubbling over our

White House Chief of Staff John Kelly Hangs Head

LYRICS
As he looks to the floor
He can’t take any more
The resident President is an idiot
Fascist, racist, bigot

As he looks to the floor
How much more to endure?
A chief advisor
With a losing score

As he looks to the floor
How much more is in store
Trying to glorify the gore
Has he any clue? … I’m not sure

As he looks to the floor
Should I run for the door
When it rains, it’s going to poor
When he reigns, taking from the poor

You know… tap a toe… let it go

Times you’ve said

Sensitive
To sarcasm

Welcome to the final cliff-hanger
Like buffalo over… Man’s in dnager
The cliff is stiff… it will survive
Will there be a human to hang alive?
Stubborn human gas in their own oven
Amazed rats built a maze into their cage

Welcome to the final cliff-hanger
Times couldn’t get more stranger
The cliff is stiff… it will endure
As for humans… not so sure
Top of the food chain through the floor
Kill themselves ’til there are no more
… ’til their our – no more
… ’til the hour – no more

Still figuring if there’s a deeper meaning
Maybe we’ll see something extraordinary?

A big ta-do about nothing
Firemen with axe in hand
A big ta-do about nothing
Hoping soon I”ll understand

People standing with dropped jaw
Maybe we’ll see something extraordinary?

From the album A Collection Of Notes

How close are you sitting to the sun
Does it feel so close that it’s got you on the run
Take the leap into questions running deep

If you can talk the talk
You can walk i on the boardwalk
Let your guitar do the talking
Feet dancing… forget the walking

How many tides have been high
Take a guess… go ahead n’ try
Memories you keep of questions running deep

Then, maybe you might know
How many tides have been low
Like the ocean, the questions run deep

The bargains in your basement
Are the toys in your attic
Again and again with disparagement
Enough to cut you to the quick

Chip off the old blockhead
Rest my case… put to bed
If you ask me
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree

Really no treat in the heat
Still tryin’ to learn concern
A homicide of the whole inside
Sacrificed soul to the blackhole

Hundred percent chance
Of wearing an avalanche

I’m sure hopin’ you’re wearin’
Mighty big shoes to fill
It won’t be long ’til you’re gone

So, choose to donate your shoes
For us to fill them in again
A second chance from this avalanche
And escape the hell of your groundswell

To carry to the end of your road?

Do you want to live in “#uck it!”
’till you kick the bucket?

Do you know why “we’re all gonna die”?
Is Promised Land pie-in-the-sky?

Pushing up daisies more than a maybe
From a man to a stardust baby

Everything will yearn to turn
Everybody will churn
Every body everywhere
Everybody every where

They say time The Avenger
Will make you a stranger
Foregone unknown into the future
Quick! Capture your soul with a picture

I’m not sure about saving time
The sands of time are too fine
Can’t keep them in an hourglass
Through the glass they pass

If a stitch in time saves nine
What about the tenth?
Are you going to save what’s mine
If so, at what length?

Can you save your life
Be immortality
Can you save your life
Be invincibility

Did you ever wonder:
How much more you’ll endure?
Do you suppose time is measured, too?

With gravity I see we gravitate
From before to too late
As suggestion, a question:
Why would I want to wait?
Take advantage of having weight
Before the liquidation
Before we liquidate
Do you ask the question?

And, disregard the rest

I could swear I’ve been duped
The fox is in the white henhouse
Arouse! Fire, fire! There is a fire to douse

Scary clowns slicing and dicing
Half-baked vegetable state fruitcake
On the cake they put icing
To hide all the “knews” that is fake

Scary clowns are now serving
A feast to erase the least
Figure they aren’t deserving
Fatten ’em up to feed the beast

LYRICS
Do you know what I mean
When I sing “floating down stream”?
Behave with the energy wave
… to the sea
Try to keep your head above water
Don’t ever go down for the third time
It really does matter
Living the nursery rhyme
Floating down stream
My body a boat in the dream
Embody “about” in the dream

Learning the feeling of a complete ass

Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

How sure is your footing on the precipice of the future
How sure? For sure?
Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

Presently I consider the present a present
The recent present won’t persist
No, it won’t last
Men, grasp it while you can!
Before it passes to past
Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

Did you notice the crowd
It’s loud!
A mad dash to the finish line
3, 2, 1… then, you’re out of time
3, 2, 1…
Then, you’re done

Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

Which hunt!
What the #uck?!?!?!
Walks like a duck
Quacks like a duck
What the #uck?!?!?!

Which hunt? Witch hunt? Which witch?
Does a duck float?
Does a witch gloat?
Maybe the idea is not so remote
Which/witch hunt
Put him to the test
At best
If it grabs you by the ¢unt
To be perfectly blunt….
Which hunt
Witch found
But, will anyone come ’round
To claim him… chance’s slim
Thus, God save us

Which hunt? Witch hunt? Which witch?
The one who hangs ’em out to dry?
Hang ’em high!
Wait! News that’s fake

To be perfectly blunt….
Which hunt
Witch found
But, will anyone come ’round
To claim him… chance’s slim
Thus, God save us
Amen

Why don’t you confess

Live like a pig
Now you are a ghost
At most
Body pillage… not so big
This is the Nemesis

Almost saw a ghost
Lost soul
Spirited roast
Almost saw a ghost
Life’s toll
Nemesis of “most”
This is the Nemesis

Almost saw a ghost

Death on two legs
Almost saw a ghost
Heartless host

Who is you Nemesis?

Everyone can drop their pants

Gonna rain on the parade

A most amazing thing
When I started to sing
The animals threw a ball
A bird call went out to all
Butterflies fluttering
Flirting with the wind
Man’s troubles abandoned

In the most amazing way
When I started to play
Critters began to party
Their animal spirits set free
The bird call went out to all
The forest and field yield
As the seventh seal is revealed

Before flora and fauna are forgot
Why not strike while the iron is hot
Start to stop to smell the roses
Watch the wildlife striking poses

And, into the funk
(Everyone try feeling high)

I don’t know if I’m really prepared to miss you
Don’t let it end
Same ole problem when you bury a friend

I don’t know if I’m really prepared to miss you
Gettin’ me riled
Same ole problem when you buy a child

I don’t know if I’m really prepared to miss you
I sure do
Same ole problem when I’m missing you

Why wait? Before it’s too late
Bury the hatchet
Ratchet it up a bit
Bury the hatchet
Why wait? Before it’s too late

Dropping out of the hate hate debate
Feel lovin’ comin’ on
The more I love love
The more I love to love
No need for pushing or shoving
There’s plenty of room for all your loving
In need of kissing and hugging
Hearts with room fill with loving
Give it a stuffing
A heaping helping of loving

I’m back
Relentless attack
Just like before
I’m back for more
Show must go on
’til we see the light of dawn

I’m back
Found a new crack
Body must mend
Fight till the end
Won’t yield the fight
We’ll fight right through the night

I’m back
Give’r another whack
No, I won’t go away
I’m here to stay

LYRICS
Hello! How do you do?
You say, “Beautiful day.”
Sky a lovely blue hue
I say, “Pleased to meet you.”

Have a minute to spare?
Sure love if you would share
You say, “Least I can do.”
I say, “Pleased to meet you.”

Before you’re on your way
I would just like to say
“I’m glad to have met you.”
You reply, “So am I”

Yes, pleased to meet you, too

Resolute and destitute
And, it makes me cry
’cause I don’t know why

Refute the absolute
Facts make you sigh
And, I don’t know why

Institute of ill repute
A sty in the “I”
And, I don’t know why

Re-route and re-root
Let’s try a new try
And, answer the question why

The self-fulfilling prophecy of humanity
What destiny shall we be?

A free vote to be free

I Don’t Know Why.mp3

Better be on my way
Heard the news today
They’re giving the good-life away
What dues do you have to pay
What “do’s” do you have to pay

Proclaim “the day of all days / daze”
They’re giving the good-life away
Free for the taking all day
No dues to pay
Just “do’s” they say
… giving the good life away

Here’s a few clues
There is no fake knews
Did you know when you believe
It’s a true relief
Relieve by true belief

Oh, please! In days such as these
I see apathy as disease
Did you know when you smile
You go the extra mile

Oh, please! In days such as these
I see apathy as disease
Did you know your sympathy
Is the cure of apathy

We can rely on the 4th of July
For that Philadelphia Spirit
Let’s hear it!

Are you aware we declare
Independence

A declaration of celebration
Good news! The red, white and blues
Roll out the tide of pride

LYRICS
While tryin’ livin’ the life given
At large
My biggest concern is to discern
Who’s in charge?
Are you ready to believe it
Ready to believe it
Ready to believe it or not

Searchin’ for some relief
From this disbelief
The certainty of this reality
Causing too much grief

A babbling, blabbing, bullying
Commander In Chief
Under a rock a cartoon loon
Was beneath

Are you ready to believe it
Ready to believe it
Ready to believe it or not
Brain rot
This nation’s got
Brain rot
Believe it or not

The sun bears down upon my back
My bare back feels under attack
Humidity is killing thee
Not even clouds shelter me

The sun shines down on all around
No air conditioning to be found
Quick! Before I feel skin peel
Will you help me find the real deal?
Let’s wade into the shade
Nature’s aid heat fade
Just a small bit of a respite
We with a breeze under a tree

I was just sittin’ there
Minding my own business
Tryin’ to write/right a lil’ jig
When out of no where
I said, “What is this….
A man dressed as a pig?”
Wahla la la… dig, dig, dig
Going mental
Being over judgemental

I was just sittin’ there
Minding my own business
Tryin’ to span a jam
When I was approached by a man
I said, “What is this….
A man dressed as a human?”
Wahla la la… I am human
Going mental
Being over judgemental

Obsessive compulsive
Judgemental ill

I don’t know why you’re still bashful
I don’t know why you’re so shy
Can you tell it’s time to come out of you shell
Time to make the choice to raise your voice

Whenever I pass you on the street
You greet like we never did meet
Then, after a short while
You’re wearing the widest smile

I bet if you try to sing
That’d cure just about everything
Then, by chance if you start to dance
You might swing into a new romance

Working all day to collect some pay
More misfortune came my way
Born a blues tune on this day
It ain’t funny
The wind came and blew my money
The wind came and blew my money
The wind came and blew my money away
Hey! No way
Blew it under my feet
Out onto the street
And it made me shutter
Watching if fall into the gutter
Wind, I’m begging you
Please blow me away, too
To a land where we land together
Living happily forever and ever

The last summer vacation
Before moving on
Part of life’s station-to-station
Knowledge is never done

Education’s on summer recess
Prepared to confess
Time is not useless
Let’s start the progress

No vacation from graduation
