Alternative Generation

  Old but good!


Alternative Generation

 

Words that you don’t wanna say

Thoughts that you wish would go away

And that rat race has already begun

Except that you don’t wanna run

Cause there’s no reward when you’re done

And besides you wanna have some fun

 

Daddy he wonders where he went wrong

Cause your hair is just too long

And daddy says son be like me

Go to college and get a degree

So you can be chained behind a desk

And work off your balls for no respect

 

Alternative generation

Love equals salvation

Peace is our destination

Continuous celebration

Alternative generation

 

You don’t like wearing a suit and tie

And you don’t need drugs to get high

The collection of wealth ain’t your goal

Cause you know greed will destroy your soul

And you know the secret of living

Love ain’t for keeping love is for giving

 

Well the in crowd is always trying to be cool

But the truth is they don’t even have a clue

People running not knowing what to find

They’re just the blind following the blind

Oh no your totally unique a true original

When one’s himself it’s always wonderful

 

Alternative generation

Love equals salvation

Peace is our destination

Continuous celebration

Alternative generation

 

A friendly smile

That’s you style

On open heart

You do your part

Love is good

Like brotherhood

Love is free

Let it be

Live is true

And I love you

And yes I see

You love me

 

People stare at you whenever you walk by

In their head they always wonder why

They think oh why don’t he look like me

The answer’s obvious look at society

Rock stars, poets, lovers supply our dreams

While mister regular magnifies our screams

 

Alternative generation

Love equals salvation

Peace is our destination

Continuous celebration

Alternative generation

Joni

 Joni

 

Harvest moons in endless Junes

Releasing balloons singing tunes

Blonde lady strumming her guitar

I wonder now just where you are?

 

Are you lonely Joni

If only if only

I could touch you with grace

And teach the human race

Songs of love from above

Are you lonely Joni

 

Night is a time full of glowing stars

Playing in small theatres and smoky bars

Yesterday has passed with a smile

But please allow me a little while

 

Are you lonely Joni

If only if only

I could touch you with grace

And teach the human race

Songs of love from above

Are you lonely Joni

 

Buffy was cool as a general rule

In the fall the weather turns cool

I am seeking what is beyond this

Say hello to the snow with a tender kiss

 

Are you lonely Joni

If only if only

I could touch you with grace

And teach the human race

Songs of love from above

Are you lonely Joni

Spare Change

 Spare Change

 

Spare change, spare change, spare change

A lamentable moan

As a chanting solemn monk

Full of sorrowful spunk

Businessmen, businesswomen

Flurry in a worry hurry

Dreading the daily encounter

A pinprick deflating

The high flying balloon of picture perfect reality

But there is just one passage

This solitary tunnel from the train

A living thistle a scornful thorn

Spare change, spare change, spare change

A pitiful cry in torment

The upper crust yuppie army hastens the pace of their march

Refusing to glance at the creature’s anguished face

Worse yet, the two stubs for arms

Fill the professionals with alarms

A scant few in guilt

Will toss a coin or dollar bill

In the cup the man cannot grasp

Lying at his torn shoes

 

Life is full of cruelties

Privilege gravitates

Wolves in packs

Beauty Vogue style

Little tin gods speaking tongues of blasphemy

Abhorring the ugly, the deformed

Even the common

 

See Jesus touching the leper

 

Spare change, spare change, spare change

Last Chance Café

 Last Chance Cafe

 

Saturday night at the Last Chance Café                                 

Seems somewhere somehow you lost your way                      

When Sunday morning comes you can pray                                

But until then what can I really say?                                       

 

Have some fun drinks are two for one

We’ll be hangin out till the rising sun

The Last Chance Café is the place to be

At The Last Chance Café come meet me

 

Rose Marie’s thinking drinking to forget

She’s hoping on a man she never met

A red-haired beauty with a heart kind

There’s not a finer woman you can find

 

Have some fun drinks are two for one

We’ll be hangin out till the rising sun

The Last Chance Café is the place to be

At The Last Chance Café come meet me

 

I say Rose what’s the meaning of life?

Why all this turmoil fighting and strife?

Rose gulps a shot of whiskey in answer

She mumbles “I reckon I just ain’t sure”

 

Have some fun drinks are two for one

We’ll be hangin out till the rising sun

The Last Chance Café is the place to be

At The Last Chance Café come meet me

 

Rose and I are only friends nothing more

I’ll be heading out soon with some score

I love Rose I wanna hold her tight

I ain’t got the courage to do what’s right

 

Okay my good friend I just lied

Truth is in my youth I once tried

Okay good friend I was turned down

The Last Chance Café finest place in town

 

Have some fun drinks are two for one

We’ll be hangin out till the rising sun

The Last Chance Café is the place to be

At The Last Chance Café come meet me

Easy Street

 Easy Street

 

White picket fences and rose bushes galore

It’s the American dream who could want more?

But behind the disguise lurks a host of lies

Late at night they fight you can hear their cries

 

Ain’t nothing easy on Easy Street

Where luxury and getting ahead meet

Climbing the corporate ladder gotta compete

Ain’t nothing easy on Easy Street

 

Working late the stress is great coming home tired

Job’s insane the boss is vain you’re feeling wired

Bottle of wine looks so fine pills on the side

The truth is a monster no place to hide

 

Ain’t nothing easy on Easy Street

Where luxury and getting ahead meet

Climbing the corporate ladder gotta compete

Ain’t nothing easy on Easy Street

 

Keeping up with the Jones’ next door

And endless quest for more more more

Rig the economy and start a war

Searching for the perfect score

 

The pay is big but the expense bigger

Money high but you’re in debt so go figure

A corvette and S.U.V, on credit

Materialism rules you let it

 

Ain’t nothing easy on Easy Street

Where luxury and getting ahead meet

Climbing the corporate ladder gotta compete

Ain’t nothing easy on Easy Street

Part Time Fool

 Part Time Fool

 

Hey baby I was riding the rocket express to the highest high                       

I had heard stories of true love but I guessed it was just a lie                                   

Then I saw you I was captivated by the look in your eyes                            

Like a crashing smashing tidal wave a super force nothing denies               

 

Now that I found you when I’m around you I lose my cool

Goodbye fame to my shame I’m a part time fool

In my rage up on the stage I’m a queen to rule

But after the show don’t you know I’m a part time fool

 

I wanted to take it slow but after hello I was under your sway

Lying awake late at night thinking of only you until the day

You are always near so strong and dear living inside this art

What can I do except to write a love song to tell you my heart?

 

Now that I found you when I’m around you I lose my cool

Goodbye fame to my shame I’m a part time fool

In my rage up on the stage I’m a queen to rule

But after the show don’t you know I’m a part time fool

 

I wanna scream but never awake from this series of endless dreams

Fantasy fills with thrills the happy balloon bursting at the seams

Who can trust the winds of lust as they move me merrily along

I am floating in the world of la la la singing my sweet song

 

Now that I found you when I’m around you I lose my cool

Goodbye fame to my shame I’m a part time fool

In my rage up on the stage I’m a queen to rule

But after the show don’t you know I’m a part time fool

 

Help wanted ad said hard work and low pay

Not what I desired but I inquired anyway

We’ll hijack your soul and take complete control

That sweet sugar was your only goal

 

So honey what say you and me make this affair a permanent thing

Hand in hand on to the glory land what hope tomorrow will bring

I write this rhyme hoping in time wedding bells will chime my precious jewel

Then at last the past will be gone and I’ll carry on a fulltime fool

 

Now that I found you when I’m around you I lose my cool

Goodbye fame to my shame I’m a part time fool

In my rage up on the stage I’m a queen to rule

But after the show don’t you know I’m a part time fool
