As I was going up the stair I met a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. I wish to God he'd go away.
This topsy-turvy world Of seaside headache blues The things that bump back Under the stars And I felt so alone in the land Of my unfinished dreams Please rescue me, dear Please rescue me And all my lives My flashes of fury Coming back in stingy sage The re-run’s final song I am the prophet’s son I am the only one I swear And I saw the end I saw life through Your rusted eyes I saw the end I saw the only way Out These surrendered worlds Lost among the jumble Of people who will be Under your stars I can’t leave the thoughts That want to see me fall Please rescue me, dear Please rescue me And all my lives My flashes of fury Coming back in recluse rot The re-run’s final song I am the prophet’s son I am the only one I swear From tragic tremors I am born again A smile on the stainless face In crumbling evenings I have seen light The gimmick played on truth Climbed my excess trite To free the memories The slip-stream calls for Lovers in final embrace This is the freedom we Spoke for so long ago This is the hindsight We followed through bone The seams on God’s hands Wary as they charge Through the walls of sweet demise The hot wind on cheeks Of victims all the same Know the wise as the liars try Frayed the pellet hearts For the memories This state of mind we’ve found Isn’t all we’ve settled for We’re marching for the crime Under the stars Fate beckoned me through grace To a land of frozen time Please rescue me, dear Please rescue me And all my lives My flashes of fury Coming back in wayward fear The re-run’s final song I am the prophet’s son I am the only one I swear And I saw the end I saw life through Your rusted eyes I saw the end I saw the only way Out Effigies of youth we’ve built To break our fall Troubles we’ve buried deep To singe the scars Why can’t I hold myself Beyond my mistakes? And I cannot wish you I would never wish you I promised I would wish you Away

TIME IN A BOTTLE If I could save time in a bottle The first thing that I’d like to do Is to save every day Till eternity passes away Just to spend them with you If I could make days last forever If words could make wishes come true I’d save every day like a treasure and then, Again, I would spend them with you But there never seems to be enough time To do the things you want to do Once you find them I’ve looked around enough to know That you’re the one I want to go Through time with If I had a box just for wishes And dreams that had never come true The box would be empty Except for the memory Of how they were answered by you But there never seems to be enough time To do the things you want to do Once you find them I’ve looked around enough to know That you’re the one I want to go Through time with BAD, BAD LEROY BROWN Well the south side of chicago Is the baddest part of town And if you go down there You better just beware Of a man named leroy brown Now leroy more than trouble You see he stand ’bout six foot four All the downtown ladies call him treetop lover All the mens just call him sir And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damn town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog Now leroy he a gambler And he like his fancy clothes And he like to wave his diamond rings In front of everybody’s nose He got a custom continental He got an eldorado too He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun He got a razor in his shoe And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damn town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog Well friday bout a week ago Leroy shootin’ dice And at the edge of the bar Sat a girl named doris And ooh that girl looked nice Well he cast his eyes upon her And the trouble soon began And leroy brown learned a lesson ’bout messin’ with the wife of a jealous man And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damned town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog, Well the two men took to fightin’ And when they pulled them from the floor Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle With a couple of pieces gone And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damn town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog I WISH I FELT NOTHING Say when you’re alone It’s better ’cause nobody knows you When no one’s your friend It’s better ’cause nobody leaves you So you turned your back On a world that you could never have ’cause your heart’s been cracked And everyone else’s is goin’ mad Chorus: But I hear voices And I see colors But I wish I felt nothing Then it might be easy for me Like it is for you Now all of these people Come up from deep holes Pullin’ you down And it’s just no use When all the abuse follows you down By the morning you’ve gone Leavin’ me here all alone Sayin’ it’s no mystery I know that nobody here needs me (chorus) And I know you believe that you and me don’t belong here And the worst we could do Is keep trying to pretend we care (chorus) CAN WE LAUGH, NOW? Said love Fear And emotion Stay separate But can we laugh When humor within us That is key Can we ever see eternity Or do we bore ourselves to death Eternity Eternity Time Time goes by and nothing changes Have you ever seen a cop that smiles Still playin’ with rattlesnakes Cuz jokes like that But here we are With limitations taking place today Can we laugh at ourselves Or do we fool ourselves today Oh what Time goes by and nothing changes again Have you ever seen a cop that smiles Well here we are With limitations sticking day to day Still playin’ with rattlesnakes today Still playin’ with rattlesnakes today Still playin’ with rattlesnakes today Still playin’ with rattlesnakes today Still playin’ with rattlesnakes --------------------------------------------------------------------- I like hearing myself talk it is one of my greatest pleasures I often have long conversations all by myself and I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a word of what I am saying. ~Oscar Wilde Clever people never listen and stupid people never talk. ~Oscar Wilde and that's all for now, 'cause I'm lazy
"Win or Lose" I know that I'm afraid of lve The tolls seems very steep Your goals so uncontrollable Impossible to keep Despite the songs of lucky ones Those very special few Can't right the wrongs that often come No matter what we do I imagine that the feeling's close to none All that passion running rampant sounds like fun But when the trouble starts I've heard of broken hearts A hackneyed phrase-but one that I suspect is true And so I wonder will I win or will I lose Most come down, familiar ground a safer veiw No more concerned with if they win or if they lose The journey must be made The hand is dealt, it must be played It comes to all of us, we can't escape our dues But I'm still holding back I want my heart intact Until the time that I'm unable to refuse Inconsequential if I stumble up the rocks or catapulted if I shoot right to the top When I on love depend My only question then ...is will I lose or will I win So I wonder, yes I wonder
"White collar conservative flashing down the street, pointing that plastic finger at me, you think my kind will drop and die, But im gonna wave my freak flag hight" -Jimi Hendrix, If 6 was 9 "All you need is Love"- the Beatles "Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. . . . It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more."-Erica Jong "She talks to birds she talks to angels she talks to trees she talks to bees She don't talk to me Talks to the rainbows and to the seas she talks To the trees She don't talk to me don't talk to me"-the Ramones "you are all silly plaid potatoo monkeys"-Elena Foofers(a friend of mine, shes groovy)
