I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade... And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party.

Baby Lemonade
In the sad town
Cold iron hands clap
The party of clowns outside
Rain falls in gray far away
Please, please, baby lemonade
In the evening sun going down
When the earth streams in, in the morning
Send a cage through the post
Make your name like a ghost
Please, please, baby lemonade
Im screaming, I met you this way
Youre nice to me like ice
In the clock they sent through a washing machine
Come around, make it soon, so alone...
Please, please, baby lemonade
In the sad town
Cold iron hands clap
The party of clowns outside
Rain falls in gray far away
Please, please, baby lemonade
In the evening sun going down
When the earth streams in, in the morning
Send a cage through the post
Make your name like a ghost
Please, please, baby lemonade

Fascinating
I've latched on, I've been wrong
No one told me what to wear, no one sent me home
Space age party, fascinating, I just don't fit in
Someone throw me anything, the oxygene is thin
If you just can't speak to me, just throw me a line
Give me just a little nod, I could fascinate you
But I am out of place, float in outerspace
No one wants to pull me in its awful saving face
I could fascinate, I could serenade
I'm opinionated, I'll have Vodka Lemonade
If you just can't speak to me, just throw me a line
Give me just a little nod, you are fascinated
I could serenade
We could throw this party and take off on our own
Find our own higher place, an odessy back home
I could not be less included, you could not have known
In my darkest rose and pennant, I am so alone
If you just can't speak to me, just throw me a line
Give me just a little nod, you are fascinated
I could serenade
I could fascinate you
I could resonate

Do Not Hesitate to Enjoy the Lemonade
Some had it once,
And dropped it flaunting.
When the flow of dollars came...
Some folks went insane.
Few could stock,
Or pocket them to prepare for shock!
Those dollars decreased in prize.
Leaving many stunned...
And caught quite surprised,
When the dollar began to tilt...
To take a nose dive!
Right before their eyes.
Some believed having it,
Would keep their lives lived above others...
And seen by them
As being more fortunate
To be among those considered 'legit'!
Backed by good credit ratings.
And nepotism appointments given them.
Just to brag and sit witless!
Looking down on others.
Fathers leaving mothers.
Sisters getting their hair and nails done.
Just to tell their 'brothers'...
They are no good for them,
Or anyone!
Now very few of them
Have themselves to depend on.
Without money in their lives...
Their pride and dignity,
Has taken quite a slide!
And that quality of life...
They climbed to pursue delusional heights,
Has died!
Taking with it what they no longer now hide.
Tears of grief that pains deep with no relief!
'When life presents lemons...
Do not hesitate to enjoy the lemonade,
You've made! '
Those are the thoughts,
Of those who stood strong.
With prayer and faith...
To someday have God,
Correct all wrongs!
And that dawn seems to have come.
In full view...
To see those receive,
An undoing of deceiving deeds!
Planted by the seeds.
Surrounding them to suffocate,
And smother amongst the weeds!
'When life presents lemons...
Do not hesitate to enjoy the lemonade,
You've made! '
And some will choose to booze their minds...
Hopeful that a fading time,
Returns!
Blinded and grinded with deficits that churn!
Stinging with a burning they alone have earned!

A Winning Philosophy
when life handed me
sour lemons
I made lemonade
when life handed me
sour grapes
I made rich red wine
when life was a dangerous
roller coaster
I refused to get on for the ride
when life offered
a shit sandwich
I refused to eat it
did not the great
philosophers
promote positive
states of mental being?
did not the great
philosophers
promote moderation
balance self denial?
happiness is a question of choice
choose wisely live in rewards of wisdom

Happy Summer
Her branches reach across the yard
tall and proud from season's gone by
dangling the jewels of summer
bringing forth ripe, tart
beautifully yellow' d lemons
picked, they are, in morning's wee hours
as not to be drenched in afternoon's southern humidity
Each lemon is tenderly placed in the crate
they spring forth a mouthwatering, fresh perfume
they ooze sweetest oil from their pores
dimples cover the richness of their peels
summer is all about lemons
about fresh, homemade, full of pulp,
thirst quenching, pucker up lemonade.
Happy Summer!

I Can't Drink The Lemonade I Made
When you miss me...
That's when we kiss a lot!
And when we're touching...
That's when we talk nonstop!
And when we're holding...
We begin to rock!
With a rocking heard...
Around the block.
You make my blood just rush!
If I had it in me I would blush.
You make my chest puff up!
Knowing that somebody loves me...
That much!
When you're near me my knees get weak.
And,
When we're not together I don't sleep.
And,
There's little more I can do...
When my mind's always on you too!
And,
When you're near me my knees get weak.
And,
When we're not together I don't sleep.
And,
There's little more I can do...
When my mind's always on you too!
Oh,
I can't drink the lemonade.
No...
I can't drink the lemonade I made!
Oh,
I can't drink the lemonade.
No...
I can't drink the lemonade I made!
And,
When you're near me my knees get weak.
And,
When we're not together I don't sleep.
And,
There's little more I can do...
When my mind's always on you too!
You make my blood just rush!
If I had it in me I would blush.
You make my chest puff up!
Knowing that somebody loves me...
That much!
Oh,
I can't drink the lemonade.
No...
I can't drink the lemonade I made!
Oh,
I can't drink the lemonade.
No...
I can't drink the lemonade I made!

And when we're touching...
That's when we talk nonstop!
And when we're holding...
We begin to rock!
With a rocking heard...
Around the block.
Oh,
I can't drink the lemonade.
No...
I can't drink the lemonade I made!
Oh,
I can't drink the lemonade.
No...
I can't drink the lemonade I made!
I can't drink the lemonade I made!

I can't drink the lemonade.

Party Heart
B. bryant
Youve got a party heart, a gay time party heart
Youre only happy when the partys going on
And it makes me sad because I know that partys have to end
And when this partys over, youll be gone
I love your party heart your playful party heart
But though you make me laugh you also make me cry
Cos I know you only think of me as just a party friend
And when the partys done youll say goodbye
A playtime girl like you plays lots of thrills in life it seems
But oh, what Id ever give to be the playboy of your dreams
Id tame your party heart, your fickle party heart
And someday thats just what some party boy will do
But I love you so, I guess that Ill cry just as much as you
When someone breaks your party heart in two
When someone breaks your party heart in two
When someone breaks your party heart in two....

A Basket of Lemons- Senryo! ! ! ! !

No visitng card
pondered, was attached...
As I quitely sat,
making lemonade
with a dash of honey
to soften sourness...

Life 'O' The Party
This is the life o' the party
We gonna do it right
So Ur havin' a party?
Goody 4 U
All the beautiful people gonna b there?
Yeah, that's cool
U know Ur gonna have a good time cause U got the news
That the life o' the party is gonna party with U
We're doing our own thing
Until the sun'll come up
Sweet Candy gonna b there
Yeah, it's gonna b rough
She ain't got no off switch
And neither do eye
When U read it in the paper 2morrow
U gonna hang Ur head and cry
[Chorus]
We gonna have us a party
All r welcome 2
We ain't down with nobody
That don't party like we do
Once we get it started
We got 2 go all night
This is the life of the party
We gonna do it right
Why party in your own yard
When U can party in mine?
All the beautiful people gonna b there
Puttin' the "I" in fine
Throw the records out my window
CD's out the door
Might as well give it 2 the milkman
We don't want it no more
Everybody can smell this funk y'all
Down in Altanta GA
Everybody, even Dre and Em, know it's OK
Hey, we don't need any trippin' y'all on this special day
We just callin' 2 let U know
U better not come if U can't stay
[Chorus]
What's it gonna take 2 get Ur booty soakin' wet?
U and me closer baby, that's a bet
Eye'm the life of the party
As long as eye got your body
Shakin like a leaf on a tree
Cutie come dance with me
U and me, we got mad chemistry
Don't it make U wanna holler?
Come with the life of the party, y'all
We're still makin dollars
25 years 2 life
The judge sentenced me 2 hard labor with a knife
Making cuts 4 y'all
Keeping the party packed and wall 2 wall
Eye don't care what they say
"He don't play the hits no more
plus eye thought he was gay"
But it ain't nothing if it ain't fun
My voice is getting higher
and Eye ain't never had my nose done
That's the other guy
All the purple hippies bang your head on the 1
[Chorus]

When Life Gives You Lemons
When Life Gives You Lemons
Shopping for a lemon and honey
For money can actually buy
At a Chinatown grocery store
The lemon acidity diminish phlegm
The honey to replenish sweetness lost
In conjunction with Chamomile Green Tea
To soothe my throat from this stupid lingering cough
When Life Gives You Lemons
I throw the lemons right back
For my lashing is the acidity squirted at malicious people
Their juice from the lemon is very weak
For the acid is deflected right back
Honey, I've got a lot more sweetness should malicious people throw acid at me
Yet attempt to destroy my sunshine as my uplifting spirit continues to be envied
Have a shot of Limoncello!
If life gives you lemons, make some kind of fruity juice.

Party Down
I know the night is silent Ill be insane
Got to find a new place where I can hide from the rain
Ill wait for the weekend to get wasted and then
Gonna get on up so I can fall down again
Party down...party down....party down
This world is crazy, everybody party down
You bring the bottle baby Ill bring the glass
Ill be the animal,you can be the class
I know that memory that can shed us some light
This kind of magic keeps me flyin all night
Party down....party down....party down
This world is crazy, lets all party down
Im just tryin to feel better
I just wanna feel better
Dont waste your life away
Eeverybody party down
Gonna shimmer my shoes on down to the red dog saloon
Just waitin for the sunset to give way to the moon
Been sleepin all day so I can party all night
Hallucinating at the northern lights
Party down....party down....party down
