Noah

 Noah

 

He’s the fiery skies on the final fourth of July                      

A soldier of fortune refusing orders to die                             

Thunder explodes as jet bombers count the cost                   

Fearing hearing the rhythms of a nuclear holocaust              

 

None other than Noah God’s drummer

A flash of fire in forever’s summer

Playing on garbage cans he’s an overcomer

That’s the man called Noah God’s drummer

 

Rachel screams “Boy in this life hold fast to your dreams”

I got a book of truth but it ain’t what it seems

Keep on wailing never failing in the fight

Busting trusting in the power of music to set all things right

 

None other than Noah God’s drummer

A flash of fire in forever’s summer

Playing on garbage cans he’s an overcomer

That’s the man called Noah God’s drummer

 

Noah is running with the wolves howling at the moon

They’ve been saying the Second Coming’s real soon

And Noah complains that he’s fresh out of rain

Booming consuming God says I got fire and I won’t refrain

 

None other than Noah God’s drummer

A flash of fire in forever’s summer

Playing on garbage cans he’s an overcomer

That’s the man called Noah God’s drummer

 

What’ s a boy to do in this crazy mixed-up world

Except join a rock and roll band and love a girl

Keep the beat Noah all eyes are fixed in a gaze

I pray for you child for some better days

 

Under a raging Moon the good always die too young

There are too many songs that are left unsung

Start with your heart and walk down the straight trail

Tapping rapping if you try and reach high you cannot fail

 

None other than Noah God’s drummer

A flash of fire in forever’s summer

Playing on garbage cans he’s an overcomer

That’s the man called Noah God’s drummer

Evan The Engineer

Evan The Engineer

 

It was the fall of twenty twenty four

Wild winds were wailing woes of world war

Billionaires buzzed busting unions for a buck

Down in Reno town there was a run of bad luck

 

Evan the engineer

A man without fears

Proficient with gears

Wise beyond his years

Evan the engineer

 

Jesus sat on the avenue holding a cardboard sign

“I’ll work for food” was the solitary line

Wes was in the kitchen cooking sermons of chicken

Ethan mused “Ah I see the plot thicken”

 

Evan the engineer

A man without fears

Proficient with gears

Wise beyond his years

Evan the engineer

 

False prophets proclaimed predictions of pure hate

All is fine be mine fill the collection plate

Mother Marlene had a dream of endless names

Faith without deeds is death read the book of James

 

Evan the engineer

A man without fears

Proficient with gears

Wise beyond his years

Evan the engineer

 

The moral of the story is give God the glory

Preach sermons of truth but try not to bore me

Evan invented a glorious machine of truth

But alas as in the past they ignore the youth

 

In my crystal ball I look into tomorrow

Mary never sleeps as she weeps with sorrow

Hand in hand singing with the Salvation Army Band

An endless rendition of the sin of the damned

 

Evan the engineer

A man without fears

Proficient with gears

Wise beyond his years

Evan the engineer

Angel

 To Robert and Angel. May God bless you with many happy years!

Angel

 

Stretch your wings baby cause we’re gonna fly        

You can only make it if you give a try                       

Poets and dreamers they know the reason why         

Stretch your wings baby it’s do or die                                   

 

Hey Angel love is in your smile

A lifetime is only a short while

Hey Angel forever lover and friend

To somewhere beyond the end

 

Heaven sweet baby is when I’m with you

I woke up in a dream that you made true

No more crying we’re flying in skies blue

To learn the universe every single clue

 

Hey Angel love is in your smile

A lifetime is only a short while

Hey Angel forever lover and friend

To somewhere beyond the end

 

We may have rain my beautiful wife

But remember the waters are the source of life

I may get angry and talk like a fool

Still in my heart queen is the throne you rule

 

Hey Angel love is in your smile

A lifetime is only a short while

Hey Angel forever lover and friend

To somewhere beyond the end

 

I’ve got my guitar I’m going to play a happy song

I’ll share the words of my life so you can sing along

May the good Lord bless us in the way only He can

I’m so happy His wisdom put an Angel in my plan

 

One day in tomorrow we’ll be old and gray

The glory of our story we can’t yet say

I promise you I’ll do my best and more

Rest easy never leave me be secure

Hey Angel love is in your smile

A lifetime is only a short while

Hey Angel forever lover and friend

To somewhere beyond the end

October

 October

I wasn’t going to write this song

I had fears of everything wrong

Perhaps the melody wouldn’t be sweet

Or the rhythm would miss a beat

 

You were a tramp in red in September

You whore in orange in October

Hey pumpkin you’re a tasty slice

There lingers a scent of sweet spice

 

Walter was born on Columbus day

My brother walked in a wicked way

He got nice the day before he died

The power of Love can’t be denied

 

You were a tramp in red in September

You whore in orange in October

Hey pumpkin you’re a tasty slice

There lingers a scent of sweet spice

 

Dementia is sweet Sylvia’s disease

On my knees pleading to God please

But the silence leaves me in wonder

Unless there’s voice inside the thunder

 

You were a tramp in red in September

You whore in orange in October

Hey pumpkin you’re a tasty slice

There lingers a scent of sweet spice

 

I’m going back to my poetry I want to change the world

I’m leaving the pornography gonna get me a real girl

Hypocrites are circling like vultures in harvest time

Here comes the October reaper death can do no crime

 

I gently kiss your cheek you’re sleeping

I say with a sigh She’s worth keeping

Fasten the seat belts the road gets bumpy

I’d wake you but you’d become grumpy

 

You were a tramp in red in September

You whore in orange in October

Hey pumpkin you’re a tasty slice

There lingers a scent of sweet spice

Mirage

Mirage

 

This song is a poor song been singing it my whole life long

I’ve been chasing a dream but somewhere it all went wrong

Visited Vegas looking to win the ultimate score

Woke up drunk after being robbed by some second-string whore

 

Money is a mirage make believe

As you give so shall you receive

Mirages lurk on the distant horizon

You only meet them when you’re dyin’

 

Hear my melody I’m wondering if you could set me free

You see somebody put me in chains and they took the key

I was rocking in Rome trying to visit the Pope at his home

But the priest at the feast declared I was an unknown

 

Religion is a mirage make believe

As you give so shall you receive

Mirages lurk on the distant horizon

You only meet them when you’re dyin’

 

These words are empty words I never found that true love

I searched the valleys low and climbed the mountains above

I once found a doll whom I could call my very best friend

She smiled sweetly and said it completely had to end

 

Love is a mirage make believe

As you give so shall you receive

Mirages lurk on the distant horizon

You only meet them when you’re dyin’

 

I heard Budha proclaim this place was all an illusion

But those orange clad monks drove me to confusion

The Dali Lama stays in the finest of suites

And sits with kings and queens while he eats

 

I wrote my story of glory I’d lay it before you strong

But the publisher gave a rejection citing it was too long

I am a lonesome poet reciting on the corner with a sign

I’ll rhyme for food was my most famous last line

 

Life is a mirage make believe

As you give so shall you receive

Mirages lurk on the distant horizon

You only meet them when you’re dyin’

Dreams

Dreams

 

I guess I must confess it was Sleeping Beauty                      

Or bright Snow White such a delightful cutie                       

I was young and the big screen cartoons seemed real           

How could they be wrong please tell me what’s the deal?    

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

 

Carol Gay in her day fought for the working poor

She stood for the union and against the war

Looking fine on the picket line with her sign

At last Carol has passed to meet the divine

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

 

In the mansion on the hill there’s a huge heating bill

White collared priests in black never do God’s will

Jesus said the right path was narrow and straight

Not in heaven at fifty-seven still forsaking hate

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

 

They call it the American dream don’t tell the Sioux

If you ain’t on top don’t stop until you get the view

Chasing nothing wake up from the loveless fantasy

We don’t need money honey just come dance with me

 

On the turntable the record sweetly spins

Come take my hand understand nobody wins

Come hear Marvin Gay singing What’s Going On

A crash in a midnight flash and this life’s gone

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

Wild

Wild

 

Captain Keith emerged from underneath late in the game                

A fly by night dentist pulled his teeth passing the blame                  

The x-rays these days are fuzzy at best I must confess                     

Besides he who hides in the shade was made to transgress               

 

The wind and the rain will never be reconciled

And the storm of wonder will thunder wild

In vain the rain washes the unborn child

God smiled as the four horses ran wild

 

In Galilee a carpenter was set free early in His youth

His song was strong drenched in the eternal truth

He cast out screaming demons who all knew the deal

I grieve because its so hard to believe that it was real

 

The wind and the rain will never be reconciled

And the storm of wonder will thunder wild

In vain the rain washes the unborn child

God smiled as the four horses ran wild

 

In the Promised Land the Semite fights throwing rocks

Captain Keith curses the New Kids and their old socks

Jesus preaches Sell all that you have and give to the poor

The Christians don’t listen and wage perpetual war

 

The wind and the rain will never be reconciled

And the storm of wonder will thunder wild

In vain the rain washes the unborn child

God smiled as the four horses ran wild

 

On the side without any pride at the topless bar

Jill was a porn star who played the electric guitar

With a little fame she was ahead of the game

She could cry and look God in the eye with no shame

 

Mary Magdalin washed the Lord’s feet with perfume

The religious leaders are rushing to their doom

Judas whispered in Keith’s ear a joke about smoking bones

But it was high flying Brian who formed the Rolling Stones

 

The wind and the rain will never be reconciled

And the storm of wonder will thunder wild

In vain the rain washes the unborn child

God smiled as the four horses ran wild
