Bedouin Girl
Under a starry sky I can catch a glimpse
Of the wonders of the desert laid out for me
And oasis well where I spy your pretty eyes
Under a moonlit night there’s no listake I’m lost
And in amazement on the shore of this sand filled sea
Thus far without assail bewildered you’re my first surprise
“Chorus”
Follow, won’t you follow me
Won’t you follow me…Follow
Destiny beckons me but there’s no certainty
You’re not a fortunate stroke of serendipty
Like some distraction or a siren song detracting me
Bedouin Girl, how you mesmerize
With your well spring lips and your deep brown eyes
And your mocha skin, and your whispering voice, and your switching hips
I see you don’t leave much choice for me
“Chorus’
Lead on, lead on Bedouin Girl
I am no Alchemist, but this chemistry
Has transformed this brozy beauty in front of me
You’re a treasure trove, you’re a precious find
I’ll come back for you girl don’t think left behind
In me….

Heart Is Breaking
But your lips feel right tonight, tonight
And your arms are warm and tight tonight
Say the word, I won’t leave your sight tonight
Don’t let go of this love and light tonight
My heart is breaking my
Heart’s breaking for you…you
My heart is breaking my
Heart’s breaking for you…you
Be my friend, be my heart tonight, tonight
I won’t scream I won’t start to fight tonight
Let me go, I don’t burn as bright tonight
Got me low, let me be your height tonight
My heart is breaking my
Heart’s breaking for you…you
My heart is breaking my
Heart’s breaking for you…you
Repeat:
Why do you stay?
Why do you stay?
Why do you stay?
Why do you stay?

Ship’s Rolled In
You had the best of me
Go on and keep your white flag up
It’s been 10 long years at sea
It’s due deliverence girl
And while it hurts to let you go
It’s always been somewhere else to be
And I don’t want it but this ship’s rolled in
And I don’t need it, Don’t need it anymore
I don’t want it but this ship’s rolled in tonight
It’s time for honesty
It seems we’re both despondent here in this medioocrity
The winds are blowing now
Better jump relationship before I lose what’s left in me
And I don’t want it but this ship’s rolled in
And I don’t need it, Don’t need it anymore
I don’t want it but this ship’s rolled in tonight

Long Gone
The sun is settling in…Images of you
Something’s wearing thin…See right through
Your liostick lined with sin…You forget to blush
Every now and then…I might miss you
“Chorus”
Long Gone…Stay with me tonight
Whatever makes it right
Before I find you
Long Gone…Seems to me you might
Stay with me tonight
Stay with me…
You’re soaked in wine again…Fillagree’s gone foul
Prime for packing in…Prime for me
To catch before you land…Innocent in love
On the other hand…You might just be
“Chorus”
“Alt Chorus”
Long Gone…Something’s wearing thin
Every now and then…I might find you
Long Gone…Lipstick lined with sin
Soaked in wine again…You might just be
“Chorus”

Hideaway

Hideaway
Veiled by the dark of insecurity
Tucked away from your eyes
Twisted tales inside
Trapped in all the lies
You can’t see me
I’ll keep my disguise
Til you realize
Who I am…
‘Chorus”
I will hide until you find me
I will hide away
Day after day with fear of knowing me
One tale will soon paralyze
I’m consumed inside
With falsehooods of mine
I’m conceding
Got me terrorized
Cause I’ve realized
That you may never know who I am
“Chorus”
“Bridge”
Should we give it up baby
Should we give it up now
Should we give it up baby
Or can we work it out
Can we just work it out now
Can’t we just work it out now
“Chorus”

Look For Another

Look For Another
Wrapped around your finger but you don’t understand
How all the bruises start to linger with each sleight of your hand
But you can’t keep my jingle all attached to your brand
Cause I can buy myself a drum if I want beats in my band
“Chorus”
I’m gonna look look look for another
I’m Gonna look look look for another
I’m gonna Lie down for another
I’m gonna look look look for another
This picture isn’t perfect if you don’t know the meaning
When you pretend to not be surfieted on someone like this
Before the spillage hits the surface you were already cleaning
You swept the lying and the fighting under something’s not missing
“Chorus”
“Bridge”
“Chorus”

Poor Man's Lament

Poor Man’s Lament
Representative, Sitting on a park bench
Watchin’ all the poor walk by
Holds tight to his money lined pockets
Big Slice of American Pie
Representative represent
Kick backs to corporations
While we can’t pay our rent
Weak work with months vacations
Our unemployment spent
Whistle
Senator sittin’ in the first class
Watchin’ all the middle class get canned
Fat baggage strapped to the right wing
Leave it up to the left to land
Rich Senator stay the course
Bail out the Wall Street bankers
While they forcloe our doors
Iraq filled oil tankers
Our kids can fight your wars
Whistle
Koch Brothers sittin’ on their old asses
Having a Tea Party
Manipulating and dividing all the underclasses
A Machiavellian Monoploly
De De, De De De De……
Mr. President hear our plea
Limit the power of the corporation
To buy our Democracy
Unmask the secrets of this sad nation
It’s now or never let us be free
Whistle

Pathos

|

Pathos
Bridled by the gun
As if you think that you’re the only one
You’re the last one fighting
Sentiment unfurled
As if to bring oppression on the world
You’re the last one crying
“Chorus”
Last one fighting
Last one crying
Last one dying
Soldiered to a leg
Anticipate the cracking of the egg
You’re the last one fighting
Sedimentary mind
To champion supremacy of kind
You’re the last one crying
“Chorus”
Tethered to a tale
To strike at any moment of a gale
You’re the last one dying

Fight Your Light On

Fight Your Light On
It’s cold now
Frost has fallen on the ground
And the cracks can kill your mind
And you savor each sound
And the winter settles in
So bring it in and burn it out
“Chorus”
And fight your light on
Fight your light on
Fight your light on
It’s dark now
Remnants of the day are all around
Can’t illuminate your kind
Perserveering each pound now
Oh and every shadow will be shown within
So tune it in and turn it out
“Chorus”
Though you can’t see for days,
And you don’t know where it’s coming in…
“Chorus”
‘Til the leaves are in the trees

Wide Open

Wide Open
Push it through the doorway
See it on a dusty road
Swimming in a season
Listen what the old eyes told
“Chorus”
It’s wide open
Wide open yeah
It’s wide open
Wide open yeah
Part it with the waters
Find it in a leaf singed book
Breathe it in a casket
Kiss it in a palm you took
“Chorus”
Flood it in a market
Heal it in a broken heart
Sharpen up your mindset
Finish it with what you start
“Chorus”

Deepwater Horizon

Deepwater Horizon
Swiftly the water rolls the sun
Drifting me gently forward
Water surrounds me
Caught in the ebb and flow
Long is the journey
Ba da dump…
Laughing the dolfhins pass me by
Revel in swimming swifter
Leaping, alighting
Up on their backs it’s so
Thrilling, exciting
Ba da dump...
Past every buoy, passed the boom
Shore passes time eroded
Sinking the feeling
The end is drawing near
Cling to what’s living
Ba da dump…
