Christmas cheer

This is my Christmas cheer
Things weren't so cheerful this year
For me and all my acquaintances
Who haven't had any relationships
Since way back when
When they were young
When they thought this time was fun
And when the young folk smile
We all start smiling along

Christmas guy

A Christmas tree
Tall and proud
With a hopeful green...

A negative no


Negative social attitude
Lotta people don't never see true views
Lotta people don't ever look around
To see what's making that negative sound

America's reeling over negative feeling
The export ceiling is stealing America's soul
The concrete jungle is starting to bungle
Wall Street's worrying it's burying America whole
Ask me if I'm a negative soul
That's a negative no


Negative social...

I got the inspiration for this one at a train station watching couples re unite as one got of the train and the other ran up to greet them.


Love Bound


I rode the train got my ticket at the station
Prepared myself for my ride across the nation
Out the windows I saw lovers in trouble
I saw flames appear from under the rubble...

First one is about a woman named Annette that worked with me ,at a whole sale book distributor, when I was in my late 20's. she died suddenly in her late 50's, she was a cool gal :-} and the second was something I wrote after I visited my friends at college 4th semester after I left after the 3rd semester and I didn't see them for like 3 months after being BEST friends, man I was a sad sack when I was young.



The keeper of books



Discussing Dave Lee Roth's buns
And the crazy songs I sung
But talking 'bout the world of pets
That's how I'll remember Annette

Keeping pennies just in case
Buying donuts she never ate
Laughing at the jokes 'bout sex
That's how I'll remember Annette

Racing around at break neck speed
(I remember how she pushed her feet)
She knew every title that I mistook
I'll remember the keeper of books




Making other friends



Did anyone ever tell you that you can't go home?
Once you haven't been around
It's expected that you break your back
To be the same old clown

Though they miss you though they kiss you
Though they hug you though they love you

They don't have the time for you again
Worse of all they're making other friends

Kick him


You go home with lovers
Then you go under covers
While you're in public you let him cover you up

So now you're his mistress
Wearing your mans dress
Silky soft satin, his way to cover you up

Are you happy with this kind of life?
You'll never come before his kids or his wife
Cut the cord but don't use a knife...

I wrote this after an girl told me she thought it was cute how i would sneak glances at the other bikiini's when i thought she wasn't looking


Considerate at the beach


The salt sea air
And your soft soft hand
Clenching into mine
On the soft soft sand

The seagulls soar
In the blue blue sky
Sunshine sparkles
In your true blue eyes

I...

Another one of my "iffy" ones. great idea but I never edited like i should to make it great



Guarding my fort (keeping it clear)



If you're in the mood to hassle
Stay away from my castle
In my moat I'll use my sonar
And you'll become an organ donor
If you feel the need to attack
] Stay away from my grass shack
I'll...

a love song... my style rhymes in the classic AABCCBC...... AAAA chorus


Signs are designs



I got the first sign I though you were fine
You gave me a smile you gave me a squeeze and said, "Call me please"
"We'll hang for a while with utterly ease"

I knew the second sign you might like to be mine
You showed me a twinkle and...

a oldie... and not one of my best but it had a great theme


Just stay the course




Wall street's got a name
For this new craze
It goes further back then just
"Back in the good old days"

Recession rock, rock all you got

If you're willing to show compassion
Just stay the course its real in fashion
Just let me know if you...

Enough is enough


I had a routine that I needed to change
All my activities were feeling the same
The things I was doing were beginning to strain

Enough is enough
I had to get out of the rain

With my kit and caboodle and pocket change
I decided upon hitching a train
I bought new clothes and I traded my name

Enough is enough...

A emo tune, I patched together from one great lyric and a so so chorus
the second one is one of my best (foolish), they kind of go together although I'm quite fond of Foolish



Bluish fool (of jealousy)


You brag about the other lovers that you've seen
Changes my red heart into a blue shade of green
You claim I should be sure that...

boy did i dislike reagan... and to think i was worried about an A-bomb... little did I know


Our friendly enemy nuclear waste


Let's pick on a small country
Littler then we
Take control of their economy
We'll always end up the friendly enemy

We went to war last year;
The reason was not clear
It caused a bellyache
I kept quiet for Ronnie's sake...

The climates and the seasons



The climates and the seasons
Are giving countless reasons

Why they're oh so volatile
Every once in a while

They have to flex their muscles
They spin into a tussle

They start to toss their thunder
N' tumbling vibes down under

They have to prove their control
Is beyond a lucky roll

So they will ever stack the odds
In...
