No But I Want To

No But I Want To (FAWM #3)

 

Playing strip poker with Debbie and Stormy D                                         

The cards were hard three aces my reality                        

I had to blush as the lady showed a flush                          

One more losing hand and I'll have a bare tush            

 

Baby maybe could it be me and you

She laughed No but I want to

Maybe baby could you make my dreams come true

She laughed more No but I want to

 

Nuclear weapons an existential threat

Four of a kind in my mind I place my bet

Shaking hands I gaze on the buxom beauty

She smiles whispering Oh you’re such a cutey

 

Baby maybe could it be me and you

She laughed No but I want to

Maybe baby could you make my dreams come true

She laughed more No but I want to

 

Sex and cigarettes we leave regrets for tomorrow

I gaze upon the fundamentals of paradise

She whispers thank you her words drenched in sorrow

Remember she says every good thing comes with a price

 

I was there dressing guessing on her cryptic clue

Our love was over before it ever grew

I cheated she softly said the cards were marked

In the alleyway the cats howled the dogs barked

 

Baby maybe could it be me and you

She laughed No but I want to

Maybe baby could you make my dreams come true

She laughed more No but I want to

 

In the dark dungeon you’re always on red alert

A new day and I pray for another skirt

Life is for the living and that’s a great worth

And I wonder fierce as thunder why I hurt

 

Baby maybe could it be me and you

She laughed No but I want to

Maybe baby could you make my dreams come true

She laughed more No but I want to

Perfect Dark

Perfect Dark

 

A day when heaven closes their windows                 

It was the grandest of the grandest shows                 

The moon and stars played electric guitars                

The hippies and yippies gathered on mars                 

 

It was a perfect dark nothing less nothing more

It was a perfect dark an end to the endless war

Colors faded into the inevitable black

It was a perfect dark and baby I want you back

 

Dreams are shadows and life ain’t really real

I missed with my sweet kiss you’re the ideal

The gin makes my head spin I’m too far gone

Baby give me some love to lean upon

 

It was a perfect dark nothing less nothing more

It was a perfect dark an end to the endless war

Colors faded into the inevitable black

It was a perfect dark and baby I want you back

 

Where is God when the bombs destroy

As bankers laugh in strip bars in mocking joy

Sorry Darwin has some laws that we must enforce

They don’t apply to us you know of course

 

Eggs for breakfast with coffee black and strong

In the perfect dark please play me this song

We’ll walk to the well of infinity

Darling I dare you take that plunge with me

 

It was a perfect dark nothing less nothing more

It was a perfect dark an end to the endless war

Colors faded into the inevitable black

It was a perfect dark and baby I want you back

 

So lonely Joni plays only sad chords

Miracles of wonder fall under the words

Night goes on but there are rumors of dawn

I walked plucking the weeds from our garden

 

It was a perfect dark nothing less nothing more

It was a perfect dark an end to the endless war

Colors faded into the inevitable black

It was a perfect dark and baby I want you back

 Vanessa

 

Every punk is a walking talking piece of art

Hear Vanessa humming strumming her part

A rebel giving hell living in momma’s house

Roars like a lion and fights like a mouse

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

 

Beauty is something that none can define

I don’t care about good hair I like mine

Big booty but if your snooty we won’t talk

See there with tender care Vanessa’s Mohawk

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

 

Roger Roger I heard you lost your way

That you got old and sold for the pay

But you won’t be playing the temple gig

That’s the beauty of being bigger than big

 

And Vanessa well she dreams as we all do

Youth is an illusion where a delusion is true

Hey listen to what I say ride the peace train

War and Babylon the Whore are all in vain

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

 

Courage is getting out of bed and doing your thing

You don’t gotta be an opera star to sing

In the rat race only grace will take you far

I say that today Vanessa is a living star

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

I Remember

 I Remember

 

They were yesterdays of pain hurt falling like rain             

Words or phrases would never serve to explain                  

Outcast for the dark crime of just being me                          

And until this day I am still fighting to be set free      

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry

 

In the company all of the dogs call me sir

In the family I caused a little stir

I desire to destroy Babylon the Whore

They’d shoot me dead but they’re all afraid of nuclear war

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry

 

I misquoted Steven Tyler on my resume

I put a question mark under current pay

I ain’t mean but they do kill on my behalf

It ain’t a joke brother so I hope I don’t hear you laugh

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry

 

The wisdom of the system is from Lucifer

I’ve got lyrics do you know a record producer?

Myron lost in dorm sixty-two of Graystone U

So tell me the sorrows you’ve been through

 

The mystique of a freak my God is on my side

I can’t run because there ain’t no place to hide

So I sit and reflect on years of disrespect

Every day we’re dealt a new set of cards from the deck

 

I remember how could I ever forget?

I remember the past haunts me yet

I remember my Lord on Calvary

I remember the cross I carry

More Than A Prayer

 More Than A Prayer

 

There is no dreamy home on the Caribbean Sea               

No pleasant ride in the sunset for you and me        

I weep over the things that could have been                    

More than death are the wages of our sin                        

 

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And to hold your hand with care

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And be by your side as you lie there

 

Dementia is the dance darling you’re center stage

We’re at the end of the book near the final page

I cry in the long goodbye asking ‘Why?’

God in His wisdom gives me no reply

 

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And to hold your hand with care

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And be by your side as you lie there

 

I remember all the good times grateful for the day

In this trip called life the ticket’s only one way

God may be Love but tell me is He fair?

Blaspheming billionaires live with no care

 

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And to hold your hand with care

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And be by your side as you lie there

 

Everyone has a hustle everyone wants another buck

They promise happy bliss and wish you good luck

In the end a friend is the one who stands by your side

I remember Jesus so lonely when he was crucified

 

So sweet Sylvia death will come to swallow you up

With one big swallow the reaper empties your cup

I’ll go one when your gone such is this life

Goodbye lover friend goodbye dear wife

 

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And to hold your hand with care

I can’t give you more than a prayer

And be by your side as you lie there

Victory

 Victory

 

We shall walk together

Marching as if one

We shall walk together

Until victory is won

 

Down the narrow way

God guide us we pray

Sharing our burden

Until victory is won

 

Holding our cross high

We are willing to die

Give glory to the Son

For the victory won

 

We shall walk together

Love will conquer hate

We shall walk together

Through heaven’s gate

 

We shall walk together

Marching as if one

We shall walk together

Until victory is won

Dollar Bill Refugee

 Dollar Bill Refugee

 

Tent city we’re living under the highway

The well to do wish we’d just go away

If Jesus was on Earth he’d kick back down here

Instead we’re fed with looks of fear

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

 

At the mission house you get a hot meal

A full belly and a prayer what a deal

God in His great wisdom puts you through a test

All of us poor we’re doubly blessed

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

 

And poetry my friend won’t pay the rent

While John’s in the city crying repent

Whispers of revolution vibrate in the air

As billionaires laugh without care

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

 

Bombs are falling made in the U.S.A.

More death and taxes coming your way

All our young march with a gun in their hand

Zombie apocalypse legions of the damned

 

The American dream oppression of the poor

Jails overflowing we’re ever knowing war

It’s only business so don’t take it to heart

Hustling bustling now do your part

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

Mister Wilson

 Mister Wilson

 

Hey Mister Wilson all numbers have their sum

And hey Mister Wilson they play the numbers in the slum

A Salvation Army banding piping we shall overcome

Hey Mister Wilson please tell me what have you done

 

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Life is truth and your truth is lies

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise

 

A world away you play with digits on the screen

When you don’t see the tears the evil don’t seem so mean

Welfare mothers kicking back with the brothers in the hood

In a black and white world color is misunderstood

 

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Life is truth and your truth is lies

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise

 

Ghetto defenders with righteous pretenders romance and dance

Every child in the wild is a victim of circumstance

And Mister Wilson we know you’re a self-made man

But your rich father sure did lend a hand

 

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Life is truth and your truth is lies

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise

 

The roaches swarm immune to toxic chemical swarms

Rats larger than cats abuse and refuse to conform

Still the money flows and everybody knows just fine

That in this world of greed the green is bottom line

 

Truth be told Mister Wilson you’re lost as could be

You heart in the frost counting the cost of idolatry

Hell is a fire burning in a rage out of control

You’ve made the upper grade while losing your soul

 

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Life is truth and your truth is lies

Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise

Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise

Rich Hippies

 Rich Hippies

 

Rich hippies so hip they’re following the master plan                        

Don’t worry Diane they’re doing the best they can                               

If the solution of revolution doesn’t come our way                               

It’s okay they can always rely on their four oh one k                            

 

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

All they wanna do is smoke bud

Bang their drums hear the thud

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

 

I’m packing up my stuff because of the eviction                        

We’re free in America I really love good fiction                            

Rich hippies boldly say they want peace love and understanding          

Unless in the cause they break laws and life’s too demanding                 

 

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

All they wanna do is smoke bud

Bang their drums hear the thud

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

 

There’s a wrecking ball smashing what’s left of the sixty’s dream

We chant we sing and when really upset we let out a scream

I don’t hate I just advocate seizing the means of production

Come on you rich hippies this is your introduction

 

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

All they wanna do is smoke bud

Bang their drums hear the thud

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

 

Rockefeller wasn’t a nice fellow he’s with Hitler in Hell

The stink of the fumes consumes rich hippies as well

Sell all that you possess and give it to the poor

Jesus Christ did more than just preach against war

 

Why don’t we get real and try to follow our ideals?

We’ll blow up the backroom so there ain’t no shady deals

See the rich hippies they’re dressed up in a tie dye shirt

Rich hippies are on the people’s side until it starts to hurt

 

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

All they wanna do is smoke bud

Bang their drums hear the thud

Rich hippies stuck in the mud

From Way Back When

From Way Back When

 

I have a hundred books I’ve never read       

And millions of words left unsaid             

I wish I could write a hit song blue and true        

I wish I could just say out loud I love you          

 

And the Jones’s are moving in

The commies are at it again

I believe in God and sin

Oh play that song from way back when

 

I’m way past my prime ain’t life just a crime

It’s easy to ignore my rhyme

Jimmy finally found his shaker of salt

Don’t point any fingers it’s all my damn fault

 

And the Jones’s are moving in

The commies are at it again

I believe in God and sin

Oh play that song from way back when

 

Oh I’m the man standing up for the cause

Pulling the levers controlling Oz

Happy Jack died and put me in ground control

You can have the world I’ll take a righteous soul

 

And the Jones’s are moving in

The commies are at it again

I believe in God and sin

Oh play that song from way back when

 

The sum of the parts makes the creative arts

The man from the band broke a million hearts

Mrs. Jones the devil has got his eyes on you

Keep me a kiss and promise to be forever true

 

If I could have learned to play the guitar

Heaven’s inside baby you’re a star

I’ll whisper these sacred words when we make love

Until then sweet friend you’re who I’m thinking of

 

And the Jones’s are moving in

The commies are at it again

I believe in God and sin

Oh play that song from way back when

Skinny Chickens

 Skinny Chickens

 

Skinny chickens are barking at the moon                        

Minnie Mouse is singing badly out of tune                         

On Calvary’s Hill they’re doing Vaudeville                    

Sex is wrong but God knows they love to kill                 

 

Skinny chickens pecking at the grain

If you ain’t got Love life is vain

Skinny chickens quoting Marx

Skinny chickens doing it in the dark

 

Skinny chickens doped up on valium

Pluto and Budha compete with wisdom

Jesus was woke well he can go to hell

Drag Queens make scenes saying nothing is well

 

Skinny chickens pecking at the grain

If you ain’t got Love life is vain

Skinny chickens quoting Marx

Skinny chickens doing it in the dark

 

Skinny chickens demand we all conform

Shine our boots bright and don a uniform

The coming winds of war a hurricane

Skinny chickens say they can feel your pain

 

Skinny chickens pecking at the grain

If you ain’t got Love life is vain

Skinny chickens quoting Marx

Skinny chickens doing it in the dark

 

Skinny chickens went on a rampage at the farm

They beat up Moo Moo the cow but didn’t mean harm

Skinny chickens coming to a theatre near you

Skinny chickens tell me what are you gonna do?

 

Walt’s body’s frozen for some future time

Skinny chickens sing but they hate to rhyme

Skinny chickens wearing painted on jeans

Skinny chickens they will corrupt your teens

 

Skinny chickens pecking at the grain

If you ain’t got Love life is vain

Skinny chickens quoting Marx

Skinny chickens doing it in the dark

West Virginia Green

 West Virginia Green

 

When the southern wind fails the sails grow soft            

On the high trails to heaven I became lost                      

Caught in the crazy maze of manic haze                 

I could only dream of some better days                  

 

Swallow me up West Virginia green

If you’ve been you know what I mean

Love is the finest thing I’ve ever seen

Swallow me up West Virginia green

 

On the merry-go-round and the Feris wheel

Sometimes these profound illusions seem like real

You can’t play your cards if they never deal

In comes the devil for a soul to steal

 

Swallow me up West Virginia green

If you’ve been you know what I mean

Love is the finest thing I’ve ever seen

Swallow me up West Virginia green

 

I was going to be somebody go real far

If I had an acoustic guitar I’d be a folk star

The lesson of manic depression came true

Waking up in Graystone dorm sixty-two

 

Sugar Mountain crumbled tasting like salt

I paid the piper but it wasn’t my fault

My life was over at twenty years old

But the fires of hell never did grow cold

 

Swallow me up West Virginia green

If you’ve been you know what I mean

Love is the finest thing I’ve ever seen

Swallow me up West Virginia green

 

Oh sing me a love song tender and sweet

Come and make love to me could I be complete?

The mad man on the corner once that was me

Visions of glory I wish you could see

 

Swallow me up West Virginia green

If you’ve been you know what I mean

Love is the finest thing I’ve ever seen

Swallow me up West Virginia green
