Owl
“A wise old Owl sat in an Oak
the more he saw
the less he spoke
the less he spoke
the more he heard
why can’t we all be
like that wise old bird?”
-writer unknown
Owl he felt
so little he thought
in ideas Owl never got caught
Without a doubt
he stayed true in the world
Don’t you wish we could
all be like that wise old bird?
And there Owl sat
in his Oak tree
looking at you looking at me
when he saw the things we do
he made himself heard:
-’You should try to be like me!
I’m a wise old bird’
Why can’t you all be like me
Why can’t you all be like me
I’m a wise old bird!
When you hear him at night
singing who-who
all his really asking you is why.. tell me why...
..Why can’t you all be like me
I’m a wise old bird
Baby Boo Got Gone
Days keep turning
yesterday's gone
tomorrow's got everything
more for some
me I gotta learn
to have and hold
and then let go
coz I can't afford your smile
tomorrow you'll be yesterday
Baby Boo will get gone
Some got plenty
some got none
one had and now it's gone
a few might get what they've never had
me I'm glad I got my own
though I could sure use your smile
but today turned to yesterday
Baby Boo got gone
I left all them burdens
that held me close to you
I feel pretty happy
even though
Baby Boo got gone
Hey old friend
how are you?
why don't you drop me
a line sometime
I'd sure like to know
what you do when you feel alone
me myself i miss you some
if yesterday could be tomorrow
Baby Boo never been gone
Tomorrow always says I do
for richer and poorer
Baby Boo said bye, bye
and there ain't nothing I can do
but remember you like yesterday
oh, Baby Boo
If yesterday could be tomorrow
Baby Boo never been gone
Fallen Star
The moon looks so alone
hanging in the sky
or perhaps I'm the one
perhaps I see myself in her
tho I don't hang that high
neither do I glow - but I try
When I see the moon
I catch myself
long for home
in some strange way
when i look at her
I feel as if I was a
Fallen Star
A Fallen Star
in a foreign place
trying to heal
my broken rays
A Fallen Star
perhaps we're all
each a Fallen Star
Tell me when you see
the moon at night
do you feel
a longing so tight
as if you came
from up there
as if you were a Fallen Star
A Fallen Star
in a foreign space
trying to heal
your broken rays
Twinkle to me once, baby
twinkle to me twice
if that's how you feel
when you see the moon rise
Perhaps we're all a Fallen Star
Perhaps we're each all a Fallen Star

Funky Rattle
I didn’t say
you got it bad
but what you got
I wont have
I don’t like
the way you wanna hang
oh, now baby..
you no man
you got a funky rattle
you better tune yourself up
it’s what you do
that don’t fly
see I know
what you hide
oh, you smooth
kinda smooth and sly
hey now darlin’
ya can’t make me cry
you got a funky rattle
you better tune yourself up
oh, you talk
like you the cock of the walk
but hear you limpin’
by dark
oh, now baby I need it
straight up
clear cut and clean
I don’t do no funky rattles
I prefer me one good drum
if you got a funky rattle
don’t be shakin’ it at me
Just tune yourself up
Take A Step
When you take a step
and you lift your foot
you gotta let go
of the ground for a bit
Hey you can't forget
that when you take a step
wherever you were gotta disconnect
Chorus:
And it might take time
to get used to the new ground
it might take time
to put your foot back down
Make a move sugar do the walk
I don't care if ya skip and trip
just pick it up stomp and shake away
I know you wont look back
chorus
bridge:
go on take a step
a new start is so easy to get
come on lift your foot
Take A Step
When you've found the ground
and you're all back down
a move is made
your all in line
in line to gear
gear up for another
another foot back down
Who's Got Their Soul?
People walking
down the street
so smooth
they smile and greet
they love you to death
with their needy smiles
as they stare into your eyes
chorus:
they want to get close
they want to know
who's got their soul
People dancing in the bar
to the beat of their
childhood scar
searching for that
lovin' daddy's kisses
that went too far
chorus
Sleepy people won't get up
why don't ya get up
big people little people
copy cats and dogs
So many people
outside my window
running in packs of pain
numbed by illusion
and fundamental shame
someone will save them
someday
if you lost yourself somewhere
don't look at him
don't look at me
where oh,where
might you be?
i don't want you close
cos you don't know
who's got your soul
Glitter Girl
Can’t help but be what I am you just gotta understand I’m a Glitter Girl I rule my world
To cover up would cramp my way it don’t matter what they say I’m a Glitter Girl I rule my world
Dawn falls into the arms of a million stars - so do I Nothing wrong to be all heart nothing wrong to let love
Lighten up - look at me I’m as real as can be additive & cruelty free I’m no fool’s gold heaven don’t put me down Glitter Girl’s what I am
Dawn falls into the arms of a million stars - and so do I Nothing wrong to be all heart nothing wrong to let love
I go rockin’ and rollin’ dancing in the light You know I’m down to earth and above the sky
I’m a Glitter Girl - like a big bird - Free to fly Got a bright glow on the inside a glitter girl can’t hide
Box Of Prayers
This is where I keep
a wheel of fortune
This is where I keep
my dreams
This is where I keep
all my recycling
This is where i keep myself
In a box of prayers
This is where I keep
lucky dimes and chimes
This is where keep
away from pain
This is where I keep
the news at eleven
This is where I keep myself
In a box of prayers
This is a space for me and you
and all the other ones to..
In a box of prayers
This is where I keep
lost and found
This is where I keep
hoping it’ll be OK
This is where I keep everyday
This is where I keep myself
In a box of prayers
This box I made
all those times I’ve fallen
This box I made
of forgotten things
This box I made
to remember all the reasons
Why I keep myself
why I keep myself
In a box of prayers
HeartBreaker's Post
I have a face of bark
not much to look at
rings of age
and a lovers
carved heart
my hands are tinder
when lonely nights
won't burn
I am but the
heartbreaker's post
They come and go
I watch them pass love by
to hold turns to have
and having suffocates
they go chasing the flames
until they're all consumed
and they break my heart
'So come dance with me, Katarina
the wind feels so smooth'
Boy whispers to girl
and the Pine Tree sighs
'I'm to old for this'
I watch I wait
for their mute truth
to speak
I tremble in the silence
where their souls
stay tucked to sleep
They're just like the willow
stuck weeping by the stream
they move so smooth
but they can't stand still
'Oh, Katarina
I don't really dance
but i do carve a heart
pretty well'
and the old pine mutters
'love don't look like that'
love is hard
when your heart can't beat
the dream
it's just a wistful
pounding in your head
and harder it is
when you think
that's the way
as love and life passes you by
Phoenix Dragon heat
I'd sure let you love me
I'd let you stay too
cos when the fireflies
are blue
and it gets real old
i need somebody like you
where the fishes
do that jumping
and the sweet-grass
fills the breeze
some midsummer eve
oh, nothing get old
with someone like you
chorus:
you got that good heat
that phoenix dragon heat
it always rises above
what is lost
that phoenix dragon heat
who would have known
that ashes and heartache
could turn so good
i'm so into you
i gotta get closer to you
you baby you
with that
phoenix dragon heat
chorus
nothing can get ya
so i probably won't
fireflies are always blue
and i am too
until i get closer to you
i need that heat
that good heat
that phoenix dragon heat
