It's about somebody initially knowing more about it than you do but eventually you learn a lot about it yourself and practise the skills and techniques that you've been taught.

Instincts lead me

Winds sing; who taught them?
Rivers make paths; who taught them?
Infants cry; who taught them?
I learn other than what are taught.
What I learn other than what I was taught
Has led me to live where I live.

Oooh Grandma, what a big ovophil you are...

My granma, whose skills are legend,
taught me beside these skills
that only granmas know

her secret name she uses when she writes her poems.

It's 'ananym'.

You'll need Webster for that.

Tact Techniques

Okay...
So we have different methods!
If someone steps on my toes...
I shoot them in the leg!
That's a quicker learning process,
Than having sessions,
To enlighten etiquette procedures.

My approach to achieve enlightenment,
Gets immediate response.
However, I must admit...
Perhaps your 'tact' techniques,
I could use to enhance my patience!
And have fewer of my 'students' limping,
In fear.

Although,
I must say...
Some are quite eager to learn.
And become surprised how quickly they adopt,
To my teaching skills and delivery...
They seem to grasp,
With little explanation!

I think it's better when you're natural, when you just do whatever you want, instead of doing classes where I see all these other people holding back because they've been trained with certain skills or techniques. I'm like, whatever.

The Glow

The glow, the glow!
Amazing show.

You always seem to know,
Where it should go,

I want to learn how to make it glow,
I practise, I practise, I am slow.

But with your work I do know,
Reach out and touch the glow.

At times those skills were really hard to do because not only was I having to contend with the camera, but I was having to learn these new skills and the ball was always kind of doing what you didn't want it to do. So it got a little bit frustrating at times but we got there.

The skills that we have are the actual magic skills - not the performing skills. We have to separate those. But the actual skills that make the tricks work, we don't get to use again.

Eventually

I met a man
And talked about you
He seemed like a man from Osaka I knew
And he listened while I told him how you hurt me
And he consoled me when he told me he'd been hurt too
And he said we are inter-dependent
And the effects on each other never ending
And that the air has no boundaries
I think this water that surrounds me
Is the same water soaking through to you
So what comes floating to me
Eventually
Will come floating back to you
What comes floating to me
Eventually
Will come floating back to you
I had some tea
With a gal from Paris
We talked about life, sex, love and poetry
And you can't help it
Your name came up again
And she said man those kind of guys
Really know how to steal all of the oxygen
And I said we are inter-dependent
And the effects on each other never ending
And that the air has no boundaries
I think this water that surrounds me
Is the same water soaking' through to you
So what comes floating to me
Eventually
Will come floating back to you
What comes floating to me
Eventually
Will come floating back to you
I have a friend I confide in
He always says doll you got to learn not to lead with your chin
But you can't help it
It all comes up again
And then you have your fill
And your spill reaches down as far as a flood
So what comes floating to me
Eventually
Will come floating back to you
What comes floating to me
Eventually
Will come floating back to you
Eventually
Eventually
Will come floating back to you
Eventually
Eventually

Earth School in Verse

I am spending more and more time
in Thought
Thinking great thoughts about life
pondering on what I have been taught
dissecting every trouble
every Strife

Understanding comes easier
each moment
That God gave us everything
and more
He said if we believed
we would receive it
No need to keep knocking down
his door

Instead of always asking him
to help us
Accept, he HAS already
and offer thanks
Believing is the key to
our existence
The mind we have
more powerful than tanks

True faith is getting on
and living
Knowing God has paved the way
with gold
When we keep trying things
without him
We will always end up out there
in the cold

This life is just an Earth School
for our growing
In spirit we have much to do
to grow
Our teacher made a promise to
supply us
with all the skills and things we
need to know

So before we reach our time
of graduation
the biggest lesson we will have
to learn
Is how to trust in God our
Heavenly teacher
Instead of using man
who'll crash and burn

You Learn

I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone
I recommend walking around naked in your living room
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)
Wait until the dust settles

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

I recommend biting off more then you can chew to anyone
I certainly do
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
Feel free
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
Hold it up (to the rays)
You wait and see when the smoke clears

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do)
Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway)
The fire trucks are coming up around the bend

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn

But we had a fantastic coach, Simon Clifford, who runs a British football youth game which teaches Brazilian techniques - which is what we wanted to incorporate into the film. And some of those things we eventually got in.

Student like situation

One is ready to learn
But averse to be taught.
One prefers knowing things
By reading them in prints
Rather than by hearing
So that one need not be
A student before a speaker.

One Sweet Day (feat. Mariah Carey)

with Carey Mariah)
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'cause you've flown away
So far away
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive
Refrain:
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Eventually we'll sing in heaven
Darling I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there
And I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Eventually we'll sing in heaven
Although the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Eventually we'll sing in heaven
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say

I Dream of a Perfect School

I dream of much,
For my child,
They should be trained,
And not run wild.

They should learn French,
And Arabic too,
They should learn English,
It’s long overdue.

They should learn karate,
And self-defense,
Gymnastics, Soccer,
Not sit on a bench.

They should learn Art,
To sing and perform,
They should learn drama,
For this is the norm.

They should be taught,
A hobby or two,
Cooking, sewing,
Or how to cure flu.

They should learn Science,
An –ology or two,
Geology, Radiology,
Yes, any will do.

They should be taught,
All this and much more,
They should not simply,
Stare at the floor.

When asked the square root,
Of four sixty three,
Their heads should be high,
At the ripe age of three.

Rocket Science,
Math and Astronomy,
The state of the world,
It’s economy.

And, by SK,
They should know all this,
If it’s not done,
Something is amiss.

After all, am I,
Not doing my part?
I’m sending them daily,
Surely that’s a good start?

I dream of so much,
For my little one,
Now Principal, can you tell me,
When will it be done?

So I constantly play women who are damaged and out of touch, who are seeking without knowing, or knowing without the skills to transform their lives. But then, that's really the fate of many women today.
