    We all fear what we lack..
    Being with you makes me tired as hell

    the smallest oceans still get big, big waves
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
    “..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

    From 1984 the album g under p the futuristic....

    RUSH..... *The Body Electric*


    "The Body Electric"

    One humanoid escapee
    One android on the run
    Seeking freedom beneath a lonely desert sun

    Trying to change its program
    Trying to change the mode...crack the code
    Images conflicting into data overload

    1 0 0 1 0 0 1
    SOS
    1 0 0 1 0 0 1
    In distress
    1 0 0 1 0 0

    Memory banks unloading
    Bytes break into bits
    Unit One's in trouble and it's scared out of its wits

    Guidance systems break down
    A struggle to exist
    To resist
    A pulse of dying power in a clenching plastic fist

    It replays each of the days
    A hundred years of routines
    Bows its head and prays
    To the mother of all machines



    Peace

    Do you believe in heaven above
    do you believe in love.
    Don't tell a lie
    don't be false or untrue
    it all comes back to you.
    Open fire on my burning heart
    I've never been lucky in love.
    My defences are down a kiss or a frown
    I can't sunrive on my own.
    If a girl walks in and carves her name in my heart
    I'll turn and run away.
    Everyday we've all been led astray
    it's hard to be lucky in love.
    It gets in your eyes
    it's making you cry

    Don't know what to do
    don't know what to do.
    You're looking for love calling heaven above.
    Send me an angel
    send me an angel
    right now
    right now.
    Send me an angel
    send me an angel
    right now
    right now.
    Empty dreams can only disappoint in a room behind your smile.
    But don't give up
    don't give up
    you can be lucky in love.
    It gets in your eyes
    it's making you cry
    . ..

    Wish you were here...

    Again to my friend Michael Franti who is still recovering from appendix surgery and cancelled a couple more concerts the lyrics to the song....SOULSHINE...Freaky and FREE. :D

    The world around
    gotcha down
    you got high blood pressure people pushing you around
    and some wanna tell you how you should behave
    cut your hair the right way, tell you what to say,
    hang out with the right folks, become a fashion slave

    But do you wanna feel free
    but do you wanna feel freaky and free
    but do you wanna feel free
    do you wanna feel free, free, free, freaky and free

    Take ya time
    unwind ya mind
    we all need a little soulshine
    take your time
    unwind your mind
    we all need a little soulshine

    9 to 5, people tryin' stay alive
    hard livin' in the city
    find a diamond in the sewer but the gas bills rise
    but I gotta say to say what's it all mean
    ya gotta take a loan
    to pay the bill on the phone
    educated, graduated but you can't get a job

    But do you wanna feel free
    but do you wanna feel freaky and free
    but do you wanna feel free
    do you wanna feel free, free, free, freaky and free


    Peace

    Where are you going?
    With your long face
    Pulling down
    Don't hide away
    Like an ocean
    That you can't see but you can smell
    And the sound of the waves crash down

    I am no Superman
    I have no reasons for you
    I am no hero
    Oh, that's for sure
    But I do know one thing
    Is where you are is where I belong
    I do know where you go
    Is where I want to be

    Where are you going?
    Where do you go?

    Are you looking for answers
    To questions under the stars?
    Well, if along the way
    You are grown weary
    You can rest with me until
    A brighter day and you're okay

    I am no Superman
    I have no answers for you
    I am no hero
    Oh, that's for sure
    But I do know one thing
    Is where you are is where I belong
    I do know where you go
    Is where I want to be

    Where are you going?
    Where do you go?

    Where do you go?
    Where are you going?

    Where do you go?

    I am no Superman
    I have no answers for you
    I am no hero
    Oh, that's for sure
    But I do know one thing
    Is here you are is where I belong
    I do know where you go
    Is where I want to be

    Where are you going?
    Where do you go?
    Tell me, where are you going?
    Where?
    Well, let's go

    It makes me cry
    Like the story of life, of your life
    Is hello, goodbye
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    DOOMSDAY CLOCK

    Is everyone afraid?
    Is everyone ashamed?
    They're running towards their holes to find out
    Apocalyptic means are lost amongst our dead
    A message to our friends to get out

    There's wages on this fear
    Oh so clear
    Depends on what you'll pay to hear

    They're bound to kill us all
    In white-washed halls
    The jackals lick their paws

    Diamonds On The Inside

    knew a girl
    Her name was truth
    She was a horrible liar
    She couldnt spend one day alone
    But she couldnt be satisfied
    When you have everything
    You have everything to lose
    She made herself a bed of nails
    And shes planning on putting it to use
    But she had diamonds on the inside
    She had diamonds on the inside
    She had diamonds on the inside
    Diamonds

    A candle throws its light into the darkness
    In a nasty world so shines a good deed
    Make sure the fortune that you seek
    Is the fortune that you need
    Tell me why the first to ask
    Is the last to give every time
    What you say and do not mean
    Follows you close behind

    Me, Myself & I

    Mirror mirror on the wall
    Tell me mirror what is wrong?
    Can it be my De La Clothes
    Or is it just my De La Soul
    What I do ain't make believe
    People say I sit and try
    But when it comes to being De La
    It's just me myself and I

    It's just me myself and I

    HERO OF WAR

    He said, “Son,
    Have you see the world?
    Well, what would you say
    If I said that you could?
    Just carry this gun and you’ll even get paid.”
    I said, “That sounds pretty good.”

    Black leather boots
    Spit-shined so bright
    They cut off my hair but it looked alright
    We marched and we sang
    We all became friends
    As we learned how to fight

    A hero of war
    Yeah that’s what I’ll be
    And when I come home
    They’ll be damn proud of me
    I’ll carry this flag
    To the grave if I must
    Because it’s flag that I love
    And a flag that I trust

    LAND OF CONFUSION

    I mustve dreamed a thousand dreams
    Been haunted by a million screams
    But I can hear the marching feet
    Theyre moving into the street.

    Now did you read the news today
    They say the dangers gone away
    But I can see the fires still alight
    There burning into the night.

    Theres too many men
    Too many people
    Making too many problems
    And not much love to go round
    Cant you see
    This is a land of confusion.

    This is the world we live in
    And these are the hands were given
    Use them and lets start trying
    To make it a place worth living in.

    Ooh superman where are you now
    When everythings gone wrong somehow
    The men of steel, the men of power
    Are losing control by the hour.

    This is the time
    This is the place
    So we look for the future
    But theres not much love to go round
    Tell me why, this is a land of confusion.

    This is the world we live in
    And these are the hands were given
    Use them and lets start trying
    To make it a place worth living in.

    I remember long ago -
    Ooh when the sun was shining
    Yes and the stars were bright
    All through the night
    And the sound of your laughter
    As I held you tight
    So long ago -

    I wont be coming home tonight
    My generation will put it right
    Were not just making promises
    That we know, well never keep.

    Too many men
    Theres too many people
    Making too many problems
    And not much love to go round
    Cant you see
    This is a land of confusion.

    She said call me now baby, and I'd come a running.
    She said call me now baby, and I'd come a running.
    If you'd call me now, baby then I'd come a running.

    I'm on call, to be there.
    One and all, to be there.
    And When I fall, to pieces.
    Lord you know, I'll be there waiting.

    To be there.
    To be there.

    I'm on call, to be there.
    One and all, to be there.
    And When I fall, to pieces.
    Lord you know, I'll be there waiting.

    I'm gon' brawl, so be there.
    One for all, I'll be there.
    And when they fall, to pieces.
    Lord you know, I'll be there laughing.

    So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
    blue skies from pain.
    Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
    A smile from a veil?
    Do you think you can tell?
    And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
    Hot ashes for trees?
    Hot air for a cool breeze?
    Cold comfort for change?
    And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
    How I wish, how I wish you were here.
    We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
    Running over the same old ground.
    What have you found? The same old fears.
    Wish you were here.

    Wish you were here...

    From the edge of the deep green sea

    every time we do this
    i fall for her
    wave after wave after wave
    it's all for her
    i know this can't be wrong i say
    (and i'll lie to keep her happy)
    as long as i know that you know
    that today i belong
    right here with you
    right here with you...

    and so we watch the sun come up
    from the edge of the deep green sea
    and she listens like her head's on fire (!)
    like she wants to believe in me
    so i try
    put your hands in the sky
    surrender
    remember
    we'll be here forever
    and we'll never say goodbye...

    i've never been so
    colourfully-see-through-head before
    i've never been so
    wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more
    and all i want is to keep it like this
    you and me alone
    a secret kiss
    and don't go home
    don't go away
    don't let this end
    please stay
    not just for today

    never never never never never let me go she says
    hold me like this for a hundred thousand million days
    but suddenly she slows
    and looks down at my breaking face
    why do you cry? what did i say?
    but it's just rain i smile
    brushing my tears away...

    i wish i could just stop
    i know another moment will break my heart
    too many tears
    too many times
    too many years i've cried over you

    how much more can we use it up?
    drink it dry?
    take this drug?
    looking for something forever gone
    but something
    we will always want?

    why why why are you letting me go? she says
    i feel you pulling back
    i feel you changing shape...
    and just as i'm breaking free
    she hangs herself in front of me
    slips her dress like a flag to the floor
    and hands in the sky
    surrenders it all...

    i wish i could just stop
    i know another moment will break my heart
    too many tears
    too many times
    too many years i've cried for you
    it's always the same
    wake up in the rain
    head in pain
    hung in shame
    a different name
    same old game
    love in vain
    and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
    away from home again...

    Future needs a big kiss
    Winds blow with a twist
    Never seen a move like this
    Can you see it too
    Night is falling everywhere
    Rockets hit the funfair
    Satan loves a bomb scare
    But it won’t scare you

    Yeah sexy boots
    Get on your boots yeah

    Free me from the dark dream
    Candy bars, ice cream
    All the kids are screaming but the ghosts aren’t real
    Here’s what you gotta be
    Love and community
    Laughter is eternity if the joy is real

    You don’t know how beautiful
    You don't know how beautiful
    You are
    You don’t know
    You don't get it do you?
    You don’t know
    How beautiful you are

    Come on, I'm talking to you, come on
    Shout, shout, let it all out, these are the things I can do without
    Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

    In violent times, you shouldn't have to sell your soul
    In black and white, they really really ought to know
    Those one track minds that took you for a working boy
    Kiss them goodbye, you shouldn't have to jump for joy
    You shouldn't have to shout for joy

    Shout, shout, let it all out, these are the things I can do without
    Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

    They gave you life, and in return you gave them hell
    As cold as ice, I hope we live to tell the tale
    I hope we live to tell the tale

    Shout, shout, let it all out, these are the things I can do without
    Come on, I'm talking to you, come on
    Shout, shout, let it all out, these are the things I can do without
    Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

    Shout, shout, let it all out (let it all out)
    These are the things I can do without
    Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

    And when you've taken down your guard
    If I could change your mind, I'd really love to break your heart
    I'd really love to break your heart

    Shout, shout, let it all out
    (Break your heart) these are the things I can do without
    (I'd really love to break your heart) come on
    I'm talking to you, come on
    Shout, shout, let it all out, these are the things I can do without
    Come on, I'm talking to you so come on

    Shout, shout, let it all out, these are the things I can do without
    Come on, I'm talking to you, come on
    (They really really ought to know) Shout, shout, let it all out
    (Really really ought to know) These are the things I can do without
    (They really really) Come on, I'm talking to you, come on
    (They really really ought to know) Shout, shout, let it all out
    (I'd really love to break your heart)
    These are the things I can do without
