Innocent World
I used to live in an innocent world
I had a car and a pretty blond girlfriend
We was too young to know what we were doing
And anyway I was just fooling around
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
With a cute little monkey on my back
And a total disregard for the facts
Id run away and never get back
From my innocent world
There aint no reason to tell no lie
When youre young and youve got a lot of pie
Now I slink around like a killer
The things they say are just a lot of filler
In my mind, in my mind
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Running, laughing in the sun
And always having lots of fun
Smoking dope and just being young
In my innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
With a cute little monkey on my back
And a total disregard for the facts
Id run away and never get back
From my innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world
Innocent innocent innocent world

Bush Wacked Liberty
bush wacked liberty courtesy of skull and bones mentality
an illuminati president bush wacked citizens into clone senility
repeatedly boasted proud published rhetoric memoirs gory glory
ghost written claimed waterboarding is not form torture insanity
forcing tortured suspects to swallow heinous bush crime cruelty
forcing citizen clone people to swallow heinous bush policy
torturous might is right torture is bush legacy crime cruelty
victims drowning under control conditions without mercy
agony drowning once traumatic struggle military preliminary
agony drowning cells dying fighting denied life breath humility
agony drowning traumatic struggle resident evil repeatedly
inflicts on fellow human suspect beings drowned repeatedly
suspects innocent until proven guilty is not bush justice mentality
locked up Guantanamo suspects detainees tortured indiscriminately
torture of the innocent wins hearts minds of good people globally?

apj Indonesia’s Torturous Democracy?
Indonesia is a sprawling
archipelago nation
of 237 million people.
Indonesia emerged
from decades
of dictatorship
as recently as 1998.
Indonesia continues
to make
strides toward democracy...
however a weak
limp legal system
continues to be
a hot black spot.
torturing suspects
'the norm' in Indonesia
routine police perks
routine law enforcement
torture suspects convicts
extract corrupt confessions
“Indonesian law enforcers
routinely torture suspects
and convicts to extract
confessions or obtain
information... beatings,
intimidation and rape are
so commonplace they are
considered the norm.”
Jakarta-based Legal Aid Foundation Report
Restaria Hutabarat said the group's report
found police beatings intimidation rape
are commonplace considered routine norm
“few victims believe
they have the right
to lodge complaints”
police intimidation beatings raping suspects
few terrorized victims lodge complaints
Boy Rafli Amar will make changes if necessary
Indonesian National Police Spokesman Col. Boy Rafli Amar
said he would study
a 21-page legal report
would make changes
in the force if necessary.
Make changes in
the Police force
if necessary?
Beatings raping suspects
is not urgent grounds
for necessary changes?
Beatings raping
innocent people
is not a serious
crime when wearing
a badge of immunity?
Are police perks
more honourable
than paying a prostitute
in the world's
largest Islamic nation
a nation shamed?

Innocent
Oh, johnny wishes he was famous
Spends his time alone in the basement
With lennon and cobain and
A guitar and a stereo
And while he wishes he could escape this
But it all seems so contagious
Not to be yourself and faceless
And a song that has no soul
I remember feeling low
I remember losing hope
And I remember all the feelings and the day they stopped
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
Oh, I dreamed of losing faith and what she knows
And some music hits on the foreclose
Thinks of surgery and a new nose
And the galleries of war
And while she wishes she was a dancer
And that shed never heard of cancer
She wishes God would give her some answers
And make her feel beautiful
I remember feeling low
I remember losing hope
I remember all the feelings and the day they stopped
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
One day, youll have to let it go
Youll have to let it go
No...
One day, youll stand up on your own
Youll stand up on your own
Remember losing hope
Remember feeling low
Remember all the feelings and the day they stopped
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are (one day), we are all innocent
We are all innocent (youll have to let it go)
We are, we are (youll have to let it go, no..)
We are (one day), we are all innocent
We are, we are (youll stand up on your own)
We are, we are all innocent (youll stand up on your own..)
We are, we are all innocent

Innocent
You know I am innocent
Innocent is not always
Innocent you argue
And I disagree.
I am innocent and different
You know and recognise
And I make myself ready
To compose this.

Paadise Regained story poem
My deafness is hysterical.
Psychosomatic so they say
They may well be right old pal.
I had to find some legal way.
to escape her whining voice
She’s Catholic and won’t divorce
That leaves me very little choice
for I abhor the use of force.
She nags and moans from morn till night
Her venom never satisfied.
No single thing I do is right.
I have considered suicide
She thinks the doctor’s on her side
and he will find a cure for me.
That leaves me only homicide
but I must plan it carefully.
It must look like an accident
when I am nowhere near the scene.
so that I seem quite innocent.
Some public place I can be seen.
Or better still my therapist.
His evidence impeccable,
he will adamantly insist.
That I could not be culpable.
The deed is done the bitch is dead.
My method I will not reveal.
So I am free no longer wed
I can’t express the joy I feel.
My therapist will clearly state
that I was with him when she died
and that he suspects suicide.
Because of her tense mental state.
His word of course the court respects.
He is an expert after all.
I’m free and clear no one suspects
I engineered her fatal fall.
Her voice is stilled she can’t complain.
She died swiftly and painlessly.
The quack was right I did regain
my hearing rather suddenly.
He claims all credit for success
ascribes it to his therapy
and as he was my star witness.
What can I do except agree?
I have not changed my attitude
though I can hear as well as you
I still enjoy the quietude.
Which I quite often choose to do.

Children At Heart
Some people are children at heart,
innocent to what they are doing.
They see something they like
and indulge more and more.
They are not being greedy
as they are innocent to what they are doing.
They are only being everything
of what we’d all like to be
children at heart.

Mistake of Fact!
Crow! Crow!
Male crow! Female crow!
Love each other,
Wife and husband;
Wife crow lays eggs,
All are white!
Husband crow suspects
Loyalty and fidelity;
Ignorant husband,
Innocent wife,
Wife crow shows
other nests;
Trust assured
Sorry sorry,
Mistake of Fact, Forget it,
We love for ever!

Innocent Child
In the eyes of an innocent child, you see all, you know all.
In the eyes of an innocent child, you know why the sky is blue and the
leaves fall.
In the eyes of an innocent child, There is no peace and there is no
war.
In the eyes of an innocent child, There is only peaceful co-existance.
In the eyes of an innocent child, There is only here and now and
nothing in the distance.
In the eyes of an innocent child, there are the colours of the rainbow,
black and white.
In the eyes of an innocent child, Grey areas are not right.
We look at things in grey, black and white, but not like a rainbow.
Some say we even look through rose coloured glasses.
It would be nice if we could look at the world through the eyes of an
innocent child.

So Sorry I Said (demo For Liza)
If this is a ghetto, I'm in it with you
If it's just a prison, I'm locked in it too
I tried to leave you, but after all that we had said
I went to pieces when I should have shouted and screamed
instead:
So sorry, I said
Your powers of persuasion, those quizzical eyes
Have tired and tied me, with innocent guile
I would have walked out, and after all the tears we shed
I should have stalked out, gone and painted the town bright
red
But instead
So sorry, I said
How tough it gets, don't talk to me about it!
To pay off your debts, I worked on overtime
And you say you never believed in luck
If you need a reason, consider me mad
An old retainer, loyal and sad
I bought my freedom, but after all that we had shared
I couldn't leave you think of the skins I'd have to shed
instead
So sorry, I said
So sorry, I said
So sorry, I said

He is always right who suspects that he is always wrong.
It's The Simplisticness Of It
There is something uncommon,
About a feeling one suspects...
Is a love that connects.
Undeniable is a chemistry felt.
And unexpected it comes,
With a stunning done.
And difficult it is to admit this.
When two are drawn to each other...
Like the lighting of a flame to a candle wick.
Giving such a brightness to illuminate it quick.
And there it sits...
Unresisting the naturalness of it.
There is something uncommon,
About a feeling one suspects...
Is a love that connects.
It's...
The simplisticness of it.
Needing no elaborate fabrics...
Of smooth satin or silk.
Or a proof of feasting eyes,
To witness true love cemented.
Nor ceremonialized,
With the giving of expensive wedding gifts...
After legalizing with a permanent 'I Do' of promises.
It's...
The simplisticness of it,
That needs none of this to know the feeling that fits.
A heartfelt loyalty devoted feels the presence of commitment.
