  • Cars

    Cars going so fast, cars going no where
    Cars going so fast going down
    There not going in my direction
    There going to some other destination

    Thunder and lightning, the driving rain

    Car with loaded guns chasing after
    cars with Diamonds and crooks
    Going so fast they’re out of sight
    Full of dreams heading for hell

    Thunder and lightning, the driving rain

    I am not on time to hitch a lift
    Cars with Diamonds and crooks
    Going so fast there out of sight
    Full dreams heading for hell

    Thunder and lightning, the driving rain

    Cars cars what is coming
    Cars cars can you feel it
    It is taking you further away
    To where you want to be

  • I am a Monkey

    I am a Monkey
    Doing the Monkey's Game
    Selling one thing to another
    Climbing up the ladder
    Sliding down the Poll
    Giving love and time

    I am the Monkey
    Playing the Monkey's game

    My mind stops and ask me
    What is there
    Just putting food in my mouth
    and trying to be honest
    That faction between
    What is known and what is not

    I am the Monkey
    Playing the Monkey's game

    Talking about this and that
    I am on an adventure
    Someone is always thinking
    That they can predict the future
    Were not that special
    Slowly understanding this, unless

    I am the Monkey
    Playing the Monkey's game

  • Before something happened to them

    It’s a script, a play

    That they write that they are thinking about

    what they want

    Everywhere it was sent

    by the people that roam free

    Before something happened to them

    Tik Tok Tok Tik

    Where does one stand

    At this point, place and time

    I ain’t brain dead, but I am not productive

    had to pull the chain

    become a little remote

    Before something happened

    Don’t want no other voice

    I know this is going to be hard

    I write it all again

    Focus Ken it can mend

    One should write

    Do what you love

    before something happened again

  • How will it look

    How will it look

    Tomorrow when we are gone

    Will it look better or worse

    For what we did

    How will it look
    If everything is clear
    no mud to complicate it
    what you noted

    How will it look
    if their story is not told
    the other side
    will you care

    Perhaps there is something more
    after the store is empty
    when we are hungry
    and in need of comfort

    How will it look
    If you could see it backwards
    Would the words get in the way
    would love fade away

    How will it look
    if we don’t do anything
    Let it die and rot
    bury it beneath the stars

    How will it look
    to you and me
    if you don’t love me anymore
    because I made stand

    Perhaps there is something more
    after the store is empty
    when we are hungry
    and in need of comfort

  • Riding up that Hill

    Last Year it was ‘Winter is coming’ this year it is ‘Riding up that Hill’ to be performed at the Guild

    I am riding up that hill
    My eyes are open wide
    I can't wait to see you
    The road has been so very long

    I see you 
    MY children and loved ones
    Still I am riding up that hill
    I have loved you now and forever

    Riding and Riding Riding
    Across the country
    My circle is almost complete
    I want to be there today

    Not sure what is understood
    I Know what I know
    Still I am riding up that hill 
    In pursuit of what i already know

    Climbing up each step
    my arms are open wide
    Riding to see you today
    I want to be there be there today
