    If the wild bird could speak,
    He'd tell the places you have been
    He's been in my dreams
    And he knows all the ways of the wind

    Polly, come home again
    Spread your wings to the wind

    Holding hands
    Skipping like a stone
    On our way
    To see what we have done
    The first to speak
    Is the first to lie
    The children cross
    Their hearts and hope to die

    Bite your tongue
    Swear to keep your mouth shut

    Ask yourself
    Will I burn in Hell?
    Then write it down
    And cast it in the well
    There they are
    The mob it cries for blood
    To twist the tale
    Into firewood

    I got secrets from you, you got secrets from me
    Because you're so worried about what I'm gonna to think,
    Well Im worried too
    But if love is a game, girl, then you're gonna win
    I'll spend the rest of my life bringing victory in
    If you want me to

    Rulers Of The World

    Rulers of the nations as you fuss and fight
    Over who owns this or that and who has the right
    To design, build, sell and store and fire
    All the bombs and guns to defend your holy empire

    There are children hungry, children sick and dying
    There are mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers crying
    They're only pawns in your play of power and corruption
    Slowly starve them, your new weapon of mass destruction

    CHORUS:
    And prove to me America, that you care
    And prove to me America, that you're aware
    Who's dying for your freedom in this land?
    Who pays the cost for the liberties you demand?

    Is it for freedom, or our comfort and convenience
    Is it to profit for big business we pledge our allegiance
    Are we prisoners in the land of the brave and the bold?
    Held by indifference or hearts grown hard and cold

    CHORUS

    Children of the world, you have the right
    To sing and dance, run and play, let your dreams take flight
    As the innocent die you rulers carry the shame
    And if we stand idly by we share in the blame

    And oh, America, do we care?
    Oh, America, are we aware?
    Who's dying for our comfort in this land?
    Who pays the cost for the convenience we demand?

    Children of the world, you have the right
    To sing and dance, run and play, let your dreams take flight....

    If I keep holding out
    Will the light shine through
    Under this broken roof
    Its only rain that I feel
    Ive been wishing out the days
    Ohh ohh oh come back

    I have been planning out
    All that I'd say to you
    Since you slipped away
    Know that I still remain true
    Ive been wishing out the days
    Please say that if you hadnt gone now
    I wouldnt have lost you another way
    From wherever you are
    Ohhhh ohh ohh oh oh come back

    And these days they linger on
    And in the night ive been waiting for
    The real possibility that I may meet you in my dreams
    I go to sleep
    If i dont fall apart, Will my memory stay clear
    So you had to go, And I had to remain here

    But the strangest thing today
    So far away and yet you feel so close
    And Im not gonna question any other way
    There must be an open door
    For you uhh uhh uhh.... To come back


    And the days they linger on
    And every night when Im waiting for
    The real possibility that I may meet you in my dreams
    Sometimes you're there and you're talking back to me
    Come the morning I can swear that you're next to me
    And its okayyyyyy

    Its ok...its ok

    Wish you were here...

    I just love this song...



    A finger's touch upon my lips
    It's a morning yearning
    Pull the curtains shut, try to keep it dark
    But the sun is burning

    The world awakens on the run
    And will soon be earning
    With hopes of better days to come
    It's a morning yearning

    Another day, another chance to get it right
    Must I still be learning
    Baby crying kept us up all night
    With her morning yearning

    Like a summer rose, I'm a victim of the fall
    But I'm soon returning
    Your love' s the warmest place the sun ever shines
    My morning yearning

    This one too...beautiful from a bygone era

    'STAR FLEET TO SCOUT SHIP, PLEASE GIVE YOUR POSITION. OVER'
    'I AM IN ORBIT AROUND THE THIRD PLANET FROM THE STAR CALLED THE SUN. OVER'
    'YOU MEAN IT'S THE EARTH? OVER.'
    POSITIVE. IT IS KNOW TO HAVE SOME FORM OF INTELLIGENT SPECIES. OVER'
    'I THINK WE SHOULD TAKE A LOOK.'

    STRANGE BEAUTIFUL GRASS OF GREEN
    WITH YOUR MAJESTIC SILVER SEEDS
    YOUR MYSTERIOUS MOUNTAINS
    I WISH TO SEE CLOSER
    MAY I LAND MY THINKING MACHINE

    ALTHOUGH YOUR WORLD WONDERS ME
    WITH YOUR MAJESTIC AND SUPERIOR CATHOLIC HAND
    YOUR PEOPLE I DO NOT UNDERSTAND
    SO TO YOU I WILL PUT AN END
    AND YOU'LL NEVER HEAR SURF MUSIC AGAIN

    Skip the rope, Look at me

    All together now...

    Television (Drug Of The Nation)1992

    Television The Drug Of The NationOne nation
    under God
    has turned into
    one nation under the influence
    of one drug
    [chorus:]
    Television, the drug of the Nation
    Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
    (2x)
    T.V., it
    satellite links
    our United States of Unconsciousness
    Apathetic therapeutic and extremely addictive
    The methadone metronome pumping out
    150 channels 24 hours a day
    you can flip through all of them
    and still there's nothing worth watching
    T.V. is the reason why less than 10 per cent of our
    Nation reads books daily
    Why most people think Central Amerika
    means Kansas
    Socialism means unamerican
    and Apartheid is a new headache remedy
    absorbed in it's world it's so hard to find us
    It shapes our mind the most
    maybe the mother of our Nation
    should remind us
    that we're sitting too close to...
    [Chorus:]
    Television, the drug of the Nation
    Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
    (2x)
    T.V. is
    the stomping ground for political candidates
    Where bears in the woods
    are chased by Grecian Formula'd
    bald eagles
    T.V. is mechanized politic's
    remote control over the masses
    co-sponsored by environmentally safe gases
    watch for the PBS special
    It's the perpetuation of the two party system
    where image takes precedence over wisdom
    Where sound bite politics are served to
    the fastfood culture
    Where straight teeth in your mouth
    are more important than the words
    that come out of it
    Race baiting is the way to get selected
    Willie Horton or
    Will he not get elected on...
    [Chorus:]
    Television, the drug of the Nation
    Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
    (2x)
    T.V., is it the reflector or the director ?
    Does it imitate us
    or do we imitate it

    because a child watches 1500 murders before he's
    twelve years old and we wonder why we've created
    a Jason generation that learns to laugh
    rather than to abhor the horror
    T.V. is the place where
    armchair generals and quarterbacks can
    experience first hand
    the excitement of warfare
    as the theme song is sung in the background
    Sugar sweet sitcoms
    that leave us with a bad actor taste while
    pop stars metamorphosize into soda pop stars
    You saw the video
    You heard the soundtrack
    Well now go buy the soft drink
    Well, the onla cola that I support
    would be a union C.O.L.A.(Cost Of Living Allowance)
    On television
    [Chorus:]
    Television, the drug of the Nation
    Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
    (2x)
    Back again, 'New and improved'
    We return to our irregularly programmed schedule
    hidden cleverly between heavy breasted
    beer and car commercials
    CNNESPNABCTNT but mostly B.S.
    Where oxymoronic language like
    'virtually spotless', 'fresh frozen'
    'light yet filling' and 'military intelligence'
    have become standard
    T.V. is the place where phrases are redefined
    like 'recession' to 'necessary downturn'
    'Crude oil' on a beach to 'mousse'
    'Civilian death' to 'collateral damages'
    and being killed by your own Army
    is now called 'friendly fire'
    T.V. is the place where the pursuit
    of happiness has become the pursuit of
    trivia
    Where toothpaste and cars have become
    sex objects
    Where imagination is sucked out of children
    by a cathode ray nipple
    T.V. is the only wet nurse
    that would create a cripple
    [Chorus:]
    Television, the drug of the Nation
    Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
    (4x)

    Herman Dune, Not on Top. Great song, I suggest a Youtube.
    I feel a little strange
    Feels like I'll never get my shit together
    27 and I'm fucked
    Well, it's 10 years from teenage
    and that's a freaking lot
    I think I'm getting old
    and I thought I'd never say
    that I bought Nevermind
    and it changed my life
    some fifteen years ago (background: Nevermind was thirteen years ago)
    I thought my little sister
    would never ever make it out of high school
    and go looking for jobs (yeah right)

    Brother will kill brother
    Spilling blood across the land
    Killing for religion
    Something I dont understand

    Fools like me,who cross the sea
    And come to foreign lands
    Ask the sheep,for their beliefs
    Do you kill on gods command?

    A country thats divided
    Surely will not stand
    My past erased,no more disgrace
    No foolish naive stand

    The end is near,its crystal clear
    Part of the master plan
    Dont look now to israel
    It might be your homelands

    Holy wars.....

    the waiting drove me mad
    your finally here and i'm a mess

    8 hours in the ER yesterday with my son
    his blood pressure went sky high from check in time till we got to leave
    mine too i'm sure
    i've been thinking those lyrics all day today was a much better day

    Goin' down to Lillian's music store
    To buy a black diamond string
    Gonna wind it up on my guitar
    Gonna make that silver sing

    Like it was Dreamville
    A long time ago
    A million miles away
    All the trees were green
    In Dreamville

    I keep wakin' up all by myself
    With a bluejay in my brain
    Flappin' his wings, makin' me sing
    It was just about to rain

    Like it was Dreamville
    Where I was born
    Light years from here
    And the air smelled good
    In Dreamville

    repress and restrain
    still the pressure and the pain
    wash the blood off your hands
    this time she won't understand

    change in the air
    and they'll hide everywhere
    and no one knows who's in control

    you're working so hard
    and you're never in charge
    your death creates success
    and you'll build and suppress

    When the night has come
    And the land is dark
    And the moon is the only light we see
    No I won't be afraid
    No I won't be afraid
    Just as long as you stand, stand by me

    And darling, darling stand by me
    Oh, now, now, stand by me
    Stand by me, stand by me

    If the sky that we look upon
    Should tumble and fall
    And the mountain should crumble to the sea
    I won't cry, I won't cry
    No I won't shed a tear
    Just as long as you stand, stand by me

    And darling, darling stand by me
    Oh, stand by me
    Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

    Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
    Oh, now, now, stand by me
    Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

    From my fingertips, the cigarette throws ashes to the ground
    I'd stop and talk to the girls who work this street, but I got business farther down
    Like one long season of rain, I will remain
    Thinking of you
    One day a ship comes in
    From far away a ship comes in
    One hundred days you wait for it
    And you know somewhere the ship comes in every day

    'Cause theres a switch that gets hit and it all stops making sense
    And in the middle of drinks, maybe the fifth or the sixth
    I'm completely alone at a table of friends
    I feel nothing for them. I feel nothing, nothing

    Well, I need a break from the city again
    I think I'll ship myself back west
    I got a friend there, she says, "hey, any time."
    Unless that offers expired, I have been less than frequent
    she's under no obligation to indulge every whim
    And I'm so ungrateful, I take, she gives and forgives
    And I keep forgetting it
