A Bbdim
To whom it may concern
Hm Cdim
and serve in return
C#m Dmaj7
digress your mating habits
A E7
and follow suit
astrophysics may be right
demographics a little shy
and our turbulent times
make us salute
CHO:
A A7
So come over to Larry's
Dmaj7 Dm6
Come over to wine
C#m7 Cdim
pet your precious problems
Hm7 F7 E7
from in and outside
pick a digression
ask me a question
Shakespeare me on
to islands and men
hum me a low one
show me the height of the sun
buy us some breakfast
and let us free-ride
CHO:
So come over to Larry's
Come over to wine
pet your precious problems
from in and outside

Inner Choices
02:15
|
|||
|
When in doubt
I swallow a cloud
and evaporate in the process
On a molecular level
Everyone travels
or stays the same
When in a song
I go for the gong
While all neighbours are sleeping
They wake up and dance
In Poland or France
watching asteroids
People listen to their inner voices
Their voices show them how to make some inner choices

My Mind Made a Turn
02:13
|
|||
|
my mind made a turn
sucking on a coconut poem
more western than eastern
swinging for cohen
trailing inside
films fine and undeveloped
future butterflies
all yellow and mellow
random pocket bridges:
bridge 1
shifting ring strays around
neverending master benefits in vain
clean storage rotates forever
clean universe floats eventually
bridge 2
neverending thought benefits forever
stylish universe begins for you
yellow promise strays around
clean bloom strays in vain

Chinese Trains
02:21
|
|||
|
Let us dance on rooftops in the rain
Let us weasel through some verses
and refrains
Let us karaoke in a pub
Let's drink vodka in Russian subs
Let us dance and spin some worlds around
Let us make a dollar a pound
Let us just enjoy the way we are
Let us jump on whales and eat some sharks
Come again & we shall reproduct
Chinese trains serve noodles & roasted duck
A part of me likes songs in major
The other makes love to strangers
In the night everything feels alright
Let's dance and dance and then switch sides

Veggie Love
01:43
|
|||
|
She used to pump
up and down the street
until she met a creature fair
when orange mixes
with purple passion
you don't want to be there
So now they roll
planting their eggs
and pumping them in to Stephen King

American Contradictions
V1
she sat on a cushion
legs crossed
eyes closed
uttering monosyllables
like some ummms
and mellow ohmms
meditating in solitude
by dim soft
candlelight
vowing peace and
harmony
until tonight
B1
then she went to the back shed
got artillery grade mortars
a nine shot rack
of four inch tubes
filled with mega gram explosives
for colossal fireworks
she struck a match
and lit the fuse
C
she is filled with contradictions
but yes so are we...
we embrace unique values
that fit our sensibilities
it will not make logical sense
to those with differing views
but hey this is America
and this is what we do...
V2
he ate at the table
organic
vegan stew
uttering harsh opinions
about just what
omnivores do...
plotting a mission
to free all
chickens and cows
protesting animal research
on rats and fish
to shut it down...
B2
then he went to the back shed
got out his AK-47
loaded his jeep
with hunting gear
drove out to God's high country
as the sun started to set
hunted down some
white tailed deer
C
he is filled with contradictions
but yes so are we....
we embrace unique values
that fit our sensibilities
it will not make logical sense
to those with differing views
but hey this is America
and this is what we do...
OUTRO
ya hey this is America
and this is what we do...

Haydn Quartets
01:33
|
|||
|
By day she lays in the grass
Waiting for the perfect lad
But the lads they all drink in the pub
They don't mix ale with making love
But once a horse came down the hill
carrying a Riley O'Neil
he never cared for the glass
but he took care of our impatient lass
As sunset would burn o'er the green
They would meet by the old submarine
Dancing with the Russian cadets
Listening to Haydn quartets

Grashopper Seller
01:55
|
|||
|
Everyone is democratic in their attic
Everyone fears they will disappear
Everyone enjoys their ego games
I'm really afraid of blue tigers
You're quite scared of purple guitars
Aren't we all sociopathic enough?
There might be a very simple solution
Not involving evolutions, revolutions or executions
But who am I to tell?
I'm afraid I'm just a grasshopper seller

Em9 Eb9 Am6 Dm9
Gmaj7#4 F#7b9 Hm9 H7#5
Summer is blinking away
roughly enough to go round
Where should I go, where should I stay
It's all in the ying, it's all in the yang
So let's climb innocent vines
Steal figs while the neighbour is out
Follow me down to the pub and in a couple of pints
We'll do the twist and we'll do the shout

I Ching
03:56
|
|||
|
looking out the window
staring at the dying leaves
looking out the window
funny how the summer grieves
time change and chance and time
looking at the table
staring at empty plates
looking at the table
knowing a new meal awaits
time change and chance and time
how you'd known
what tomorrow brings
until it comes and ripe
with all those things
time change and chance and time
