More To Life

More To Life

 

Soldiers marching in their finest uniform                              

In the east the clouds were coming in storm                          

Where has our innocence went do you know                        

Strange how these winds of change always blow

 

Slipping into the evening sky

Giving life one more try

Love is the only reason why

Somewhere out there

There’s more to life than the lie

 

Women wept so proud of their men of stone

Lovers moaned soon they would be all alone

Mothers cried like they were forever young

How many times has this sad song been sung

 

Slipping into the evening sky

Giving life one more try

Love is the only reason why

Somewhere out there

There’s more to life than the lie

 

There is a monster on the prowl can you hear him growl

He’s a funky folk singer singing about murder so foul

Billionaires bankrupting paupers just because they can

Angry anarchists raging screaming stick it to the man

 

A pair of sweethearts driving into night

A last time to taste heavenly delight

Tomorrow he sails away to endless war

They silently wonder will there be more

 

Slipping into the evening sky

Giving life one more try

Love is the only reason why

Somewhere out there

There’s more to life than the lie

A Mother’s Love

 A Mother’s Love

 

I was a child of promise but ain’t we all

Had a mind of mine own even when small

Seventeen stretching my wings for the sky

When you’re young you’re never gonna die

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

 

Started running with the crowd we were cool

Momma tried of course she was just a fool

Smoking cigarettes whistling at the boys

Every Saturday night gonna make some noise

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

 

Somewhere lost between heaven and hell

Took a wrong turn and nothing was well

All my friends played the disappearing act

I had my pride but I wanted to come back

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

 

The prodigal daughter fresh meat headed for the slaughter

Despised I was baptized in the devil’s dirty water

Butt of the joke busted and broke walking far behind

Somewhere in my mind I said momma’s always been kind

 

I said Momma dear I’m sorry for sure

Momma said what you standing there for

Come inside let me make you some hot tea

You’ll always be a precious little girl to me

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

It’s A Snowy Day In Montclair

 It’s A Snowy Day In Montclair

 

I read the obituary of a man with a pathetic life

He loved his children and was on his third wife

No matter how wicked or cruel the livin

When you bite the dust you’re going to heaven

 

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

Down on your knees say a prayer

When hell freezes over I’ll be there

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

 

The college basketball team is undefeated

If you’re manic I know how you’ll be treated

Rents are on the rise but that’s no surprise

Here comes the devil with a quiver full of lies

 

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

Down on your knees say a prayer

When hell freezes over I’ll be there

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

 

I’m getting pornographic emails in my spam

Yesterday I worshiped the great I am

Right now I’m typing the lyrics to a song

I’m pondering why right always turns wrong

 

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

Down on your knees say a prayer

When hell freezes over I’ll be there

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

 

Satan smiles as he drools reading over the Epstein files

If you think the Democrats will save us then you’re in denial

We have a vigil on Fridays to protest war and organized hate

I believe all genocide is wrong but that’s a matter of debate

 

I ain’t the Messiah but I’ll ascend into heaven

I ain’t a liar please read Revelation chapter eleven

Tutoring math brings rewards but so little pay

I wonder how in the world do people turn gay

 

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

Down on your knees say a prayer

When hell freezes over I’ll be there

It’s a snowy day in Montclair

Undercover Heart

Undercover Heart

 

Two ships crashing in the deep blue sea                                

One of them you and one of them me                                   

Shiver me timbers kiss me a gale                                          

I reminisce we were too big to fail                                        

 

Van Gogh now that’s real art

She got an undercover heart

Promise me you’ll never depart

I got an undercover heart

 

Sex is only intimate with trust

A million partners twas only lust

I burnt down the rainbow to the sky

She smiled saying please give it one more try

 

Van Gogh now that’s real art

She got an undercover heart

Promise me you’ll never depart

I got an undercover heart

 

Alpha Beta we’re counting letters

The news telling sins of our betters

Give me the dream of one Sigmund Freud

Lost in space ain’t no grace in the void

 

Van Gogh now that’s real art

She got an undercover heart

Promise me you’ll never depart

I got an undercover heart

 

The man in the long trench coat is searching your trash can

I was a witness to the dreaming philosopher’s perfect plan

Peace on Earth wasn’t that the promise of the Lord’s birth

When the shit hits the fan then man you gotta prove you worth

 

I offer you my hand forever

But yes or no it’s now or never

Dreams don’t always end when you awake

If you live to give you may freely take

 

Van Gogh now that’s real art

She got an undercover heart

Promise me you’ll never depart

I got an undercover heart

Down River

Down River

 FAWM #8

Sensationally sheik L’s into disco this week                            

Down at the new club voila the super freak                        

Dancing through the pain snorting cocaine’s a boost             

Just when them chickens coming home to roost?          

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime

 

Bishop works security an ex-Newark police man

I counted eighteen people who gave a damn

I look out of the window my lone escape

In my mind I find the repeating tape

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime

 

Sushi’s fine but the caviar’s simply divine

Oh I don’t know I just need something to call mine

The view from penthouse forty-five a pretty sight

Tears flow down her cheek something just ain’t right

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime

 

Billionaires don’t say prayers for the bums on the street

Rich man don’t know the hunger of having no food to eat

Pretty L I can tell your desire ain’t the stock market going higher

She’s a powder keg ready to beg to light her fire

 

Raven I wrote you a poem do you remember

For each win somebody gotta surrender

She’s mixing martinis in her new blender

Welcome to hell L so young and tender

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime

In the ashes of Tel-Aviv

In the ashes of Tel-Aviv

 

Holy Moses looks down on you with shame 

All this killing and evil in his name                         

You rejected the messiah you’re to blame               

Look to Jesus you won’t be the same             

 

Oh Israel when will you believe

As you give you shall receive

The Good Lord shall sift you with a sieve

In the ashes of Tel-Aviv

 

Living a lie an excuse for your war

Looking to take the land just like before

Blessed are the meek and Turn the other cheek

Precision bombs the future is bleak

 

Oh Israel when will you believe

As you give you shall receive

The Good Lord shall sift you with a sieve

In the ashes of Tel-Aviv

 

Mass murder genocide that’s your crime

You’re mind is stuck in an ancient time

Love is the key so let the key be turned

Repent repent or you will be burned

 

Oh Israel when will you believe

As you give you shall receive

The Good Lord shall sift you with a sieve

In the ashes of Tel-Aviv

 

The Prince of Peace is weeping on this throne

He walks in the garden but He is unknown

What so ever you have done to the least of them

But you don’t listen let alone give an amen

 

On the horizon black storm clouds linger

God points to His Word with His holy finger

Jesus the Lord of Lords He is above all

When Israel will you heed His call

 

Oh Israel when will you believe

As you give you shall receive

The Good Lord shall sift you with a sieve

In the ashes of Tel-Aviv

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

Rain

Rain

 

On the shore of evermore the armies march to war

A terrible scene that we’ve seen many times before

For God country and king the united voices sing

Doom death and destruction the fruits they bring

 

May the heavens open let it rain

Can sinners be forgiven let it rain

A baptism of fire ample pain

Life mysteries that none can explain

Let it rain let it rain let it rain

 

A mother’s weeping bitter tears flowing as a stream

Her son’s a casualty and thus dies the dream

She clutches a photograph he’s in his uniform

How many will perish in this devilish dark storm

 

May the heavens open let it rain

Can sinners be forgiven let it rain

A baptism of fire ample pain

Life mysteries that none can explain

Let it rain let it rain let it rain

 

Businessmen with greedy minds clutch coins of gold

Don’t you know that long ago their souls they sold

Fluent in lies it’s no surprise the words they tell

They promise heaven on Earth bringing only hell

 

May the heavens open let it rain

Can sinners be forgiven let it rain

A baptism of fire ample pain

Life mysteries that none can explain

Let it rain let it rain let it rain

 

And the child is innocent pure as a dove

And the child is innocent secure in love

The tender shoot they pollute with deceit

A wicked world always to compete

 

An innocent man there was in some distant time

Nailed to the cross telling the truth his only crime

Sacred saints recorded his words in a holy book

The profits of today say amen and never look

 

May the heavens open let it rain

Can sinners be forgiven let it rain

A baptism of fire ample pain

Life mysteries that none can explain

Let it rain let it rain let it rain

Please Song Lyric By John Kaniecki

 

Just wrote this! One of those inspirational moments where the song lyrics burst out! I was trying to capture the vibrant rebellion of youth with a hip-hop attitude. 

Please

 

Neon sign of the church blinks off and on

Where dear God has our Love gone?

I find what I need out on the street

I find my thrill in his car’s backseat

 

And all the boys with skinny knees

Sing please please please don’t tease

And all the boys they have this song

Please please please don’t do me wrong

 

Computer age television fluent in sin

Man on the corner screams be born again

High in math calculating a line’s slope

Only music class brings me some hope

 

And all the boys with skinny knees

Sing please please please don’t tease

And all the boys they have this song

Please please please don’t do me wrong

 

Late at night the moon on the prowl

Gonna see my lover make him growl

Daddy said I had to be in by ten

I guess he’s gonna get mad again

 

And all the boys with skinny knees

Sing please please please don’t tease

And all the boys they have this song

Please please please don’t do me wrong

 

Twenty-five seconds of fame I got my game

I played my cards I ain’t got nobody to blame

Tell me baby are you moving and grooving

I ain’t there yet but I’m improving

 

I’ll be dancing till the day that I die

I’ll be dancing with the angels on high

Takes two to dance are you free?

Takes two to dance are you with me?

 

And all the boys with skinny knees

Sing please please please don’t tease

And all the boys they have this song

Please please please don’t do me wrong

Skill Of Chill

 Skill Of Chill

 

On the road wild child the road never comes to an end           

Thousands of comrades but who to call friend?                       

Blood brothers an oath taken with sacred red                                    

Kicking back on the attack until you’re dead                             

 

Revving up the engines feel the thrill

The feature of the theatre score to kill

Riding high in the skill of chill

Ride till you die in the skill of chill

 

Hell has no angels the devil only speaks in lies

Blazing hot heat you’ve got your alibies

So many deals you can’t keep the money straight

Who’s pointing the finger there’s plenty of hate?

 

Revving up the engines feel the thrill

The feature of the theatre score to kill

Riding high in the skill of chill

Ride till you die in the skill of chill

 

Your babe holds on tight she’ll be riding you through the night

Rise and fall the primal call it don’t feel right

Two hearts beating you staring into the void

Sweetheart with a sinister smile you’re annoyed

 

Revving up the engines feel the thrill

The feature of the theatre score to kill

Riding high in the skill of chill

Ride till you die in the skill of chill

 

Gun shots fire whose shooting who?

Some in colors others wearing blue

Lords of anarchy you ain’t got a clue

Gun shots fire whose shooting who?

 

Your old lady she’s been talking with the FBI

Solid evidence that you can’t deny

You’re looking at life and maybe some more

Ain’t no bluff in handcuffs walking out the door

 

Revving up the engines feel the thrill

The feature of the theatre score to kill

Riding high in the skill of chill

Ride till you die in the skill of chill

Can’t We Try Love For A While

 Can’t We Try Love For A While

 

What is wrong that we have sunk so low?

Where are the secrets that we don’t know?

We split the atom and our neighbor’s our foe

One day the whole thing’s going to blow

 

Can’t we try love for a while

It’s necessary for survival

Can’t we try love for a while

Can’t we try love for a while

 

You hate me without any good reason

And all the puppets lead us to treason

Where brothers are torn apart in war

All so we can feed the insatiable whore

 

Can’t we try love for a while

It’s necessary for survival

Can’t we try love for a while

Can’t we try love for a while

 

There’s a little bird whistling a blues song

Folk singers want to right every wrong

All we need is lyrics and a perfect melody

I’ll sing this song until everybody is free

 

Can’t we try love for a while

It’s necessary for survival

Can’t we try love for a while

Can’t we try love for a while

 

Down in the Chesapeake Bay

They’re on their knees but not to pray

As hearts of gold slowly decay

With the system leading the way

 

I’d put this gun down but I’m afraid

In the mirror I see the demon they made

Hollywood heroes never give up

And there goes the drunk to fill his cup

 

Can’t we try love for a while

It’s necessary for survival

Can’t we try love for a while

Can’t we try love for a while
