Rise and Shine (Sleepyhead)

Posted on

This morning I went straight to the mountain and there I rose from sleep to the pounding of a thousand hearts dancing light on their feet. I walked on my hands, spun on my head and puffed away away my sins. I’d stepped barefoot from my bed right into ducking juggling pins. CHORUS Rise and…

How Stupid I Am

Posted on

You wanna know how stupid I am? I never married because I have this plan. I’m gonna be famous, top of the stairs, travel in style and have lots of affairs. Beautiful women, idyllic girls, from Hollywood to Paris, all around the world. And tho I grow older it’s the dream of a child, that’s…

To Heaven Before I Die

Posted on

I want to get to heaven before I die so i’m walking down the road, lord i’m feeling high. Looking for the lady, the apple of my eye, I want to get to heaven before I die. I want to hear the angels when they sing. Sitting on the clouds, plucking those strings. But in…

Last One Ever

Posted on

This is the last one. The last one ever! This is the last one. I swear it tastes so good. How dare it keep on giving to the end. How dare I reply “Lord I’ll miss ya,” by and by. How dare I, can’t deny I’d probably rather die. This is the last one. The…

Posted on

The fat king of gods, the breaker of bones owns everything you see for endless miles and talk of revolution has vanished under a stone still the mystic sees the tremblin’ and smiles.

Everything must go. Funny, that’s what I was thinking walking down the road. Thinking about the hard times,…

One of Us Standing

Posted on

I’ve been overwhelmed by the task at hand I’ve screamed “impossible” to the silent stars but I travel far and wide across the sacred land share the wine in the churches and bars and I say “wipe the tears you shed from fear they’ve won- I’ve come to tell you the revolution marches on” go…

I Hate Love

Posted on

In my heart, the moment I could tell she was beautiful, the world fell and I didn’t rise but sank downward, downward, downward down. And if I had cried I would surely have drowned All because i had nothing to trust, I fell without thinking thinking I hate love. I hate love. Desire always enters…

Holly Would (if she could)

Posted on

She wants to be a rock star, so she plays hard — just like she should. She’ll never make it too far, she’s waiting on a wild card — she’s not that good. She’s living in her van — but she’s got a master plan I wouldn’t but Holly would. When she was just fifteen,…
