Pieces Of Me

 Have a Listen!


Pieces Of Me


All I’m Saying

 

All I’m Saying

 

Tongue twisted tumbling like a gymnast on speed         

My sorry soul wounded I feel my heart bleed         

I spend hours in fantasy and you’re the star                   

To confess this mess I pick up my guitar                 

 

All I’m saying is I love you

Tell me is that wrong

All I’m saying is I love you

And baby this is your song

 

You’re a beauty the rapture of a trillion suns

With manic laughter cackling one of the wild ones

The wild bucking mare that nobody could tame

I am the grandest fool to play this cruel game

 

All I’m saying is I love you

Tell me is that wrong

All I’m saying is I love you

And baby this is your song

 

Dreams you’re only a dream that was yesterday

Dreams you’re only a dream you faded away

I could never speak what you needed to know

Now hear this song playing on the radio

 

I was high as the sky at the edge of space

I had memorized the words seasoned with grace

But I could never say the secret words out loud

Now I sing them so proud to the screaming crowd

 

All I’m saying is I love you

Tell me is that wrong

All I’m saying is I love you

And baby this is your song

 

If there was a time machine I could borrow

Would I use it so I could end this sorrow?

Women by the score but none ever compare

I could name your name but I wouldn’t dare

 

All I’m saying is I love you

Tell me is that wrong

All I’m saying is I love you

And baby this is your song

Lazy Day Blues (Song #11)

Lazy Day Blues (Song #11)

 

Took Ventura Boulevard and headed out east

Picked up a hippie preaching about peace

She had some grass to help pass the time

Why is getting high a capital crime?

 

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

Sunsetting in many magenta hues

I’m a songwriter paying my dues

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

 

Couldn’t read the speedometer ran out of gas

Wheels spinning in desert sand going nowhere fast

In Arizona we crashed the Hopi dance

We’re all criminals victims of circumstance

 

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

Sunsetting in many magenta hues

I’m a songwriter paying my dues

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

 

I was tutoring math but the children revolted

They said I needed a bath and I got insulted

I made a video adding two and two

They say heaven is high why is that true?

 

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

Sunsetting in many magenta hues

I’m a songwriter paying my dues

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

 

I would quote Dylan but Guthrie was much better

Some people like Z but W is a finer letter

The words and chords melted in something placid

Uh oh oooh no the grass was laced with acid

 

I was close to understanding the paradox

Of a million doors with a single lock

I had no paper so it’s all on memory

If you don’t have the key you’ll never be free

 

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

Sunsetting in many magenta hues

I’m a songwriter paying my dues

I got me them crazy lazy day blues

China Cat

 China Cat (Song #9)

 

Whiskey wild women and a sweet sweet song                          

Chasing the dragon feeling really strong                                       

Didn’t think anything could possibly go wrong                             

Then in just like sin walked a woman who didn’t belong                    

 

She’s a China Cat hear her purr

She’s a China Cat yeah that’s real fur

Feel the fire burn then feel some more

She’s a China Cat hear her purr

 

She was tall the tallest woman I had ever seen

Sparking silver and gold with hair ivy green

A leather jacket with a lion giving a roar

She was trouble the devil’s double for sure

 

She’s a China Cat hear her purr

She’s a China Cat yeah that’s real fur

Feel the fire burn then feel some more

She’s a China Cat hear her purr

 

Well she strutted down the bar catching every eye

In a silent scream I knew the dream of every guy

We’d sell our souls and more for just one try

We’d sell our souls and in the morning not ask why

 

She’s a China Cat hear her purr

She’s a China Cat yeah that’s real fur

Feel the fire burn then feel some more

She’s a China Cat hear her purr

 

Fantasy manifesting in perfect perfection

She was ravishingly beautiful need I mention?

The lovely lady she walked to where I sat

She said “Hello baby I’m the one and only China Cat!”

 

Feeling beat sweet perfume consumed the room

As I awaked my body ached with delightful doom

By my side curled up in a ball she lay asleep

I knew sure as the sky was blue she’s one to keep

 

She’s a China Cat hear her purr

She’s a China Cat yeah that’s real fur

Feel the fire burn then feel some more

She’s a China Cat hear her purr
