I better make the plot good. I wanted to make it grip people on the first page and have a big turning point in the middle, as there is, and construct the whole thing like a roller coaster ride.

Life is a roller coaster that we all ride

Iceberg-Ive fallen in love with an
Iceberg-its only the tip of the
Iceberg-Ive heard that its cool
I got class, I got style
But once in a while out on the town
I must go
Youd better wash out your zone
Watch out you stone bone headed woman
Watch out you bone headed man
Iceberg-its freezin over second avenue
Theres not a thing that you can
Iceberg-its comin over second avenue
Youd better believe theres nothin
You can do about it
I was an orphan and I couldnt help it
Ive been in and out of trouble
Ever since they left me in a basket
On the freeway
Its me thats been doggin your shadow
Its me thats been a shadowin your dog
You got me hung up lock and stock and barrel
Ill always be behind you in the fog
So you better not annoy me
Or Ill do somethin that I might regret
Youd better not annoy me or Ill do
Somethin that you wont forget in a hurry
And I might be back for some sloppy seconds
Youve heard me heavy breathing on the telephone
My word they say that Im belongin
In a home for crazy people
But you know I dont belong there
I was an orphan and I couldnt help it
Id been in and out of trouble
Ever since they left me
In a basket on the freeway
Lie lie lie etc
Die die die etc
Hooray hooray ha ha ha
Hooray ha ha ha
Get down get down get down get down
Theres really not a lot that you can do
Lay down lay down lay down lay down
Theres really not a lot that you can do
Theres really not a lot that you can do
And I might be back for sloppy seconds

Our Shelter Is The Purpose Of Our Creation
IT is the intention to gain
that makes one creative,
and so when the gain is taken
one sulks back to his
stagnant self,
the intention to be happy
is one thing too,
as though the purpose of having this life is simply
happiness,
that when one is sad, life becomes
meaningless
a slave of feeling, a roller coaster of emotion
one is a rider,
when the ride is over, what then is next?
the roller coaster stops
one gets out from his seat and bind
you take a walk, remembering the highs and lows
and this soon shall stop
there is no roller coaster in the house where we live
will there be no excitement anymore
when we feel nothing
shall life and dreams cease too?
we are not our creators
we are created for a purpose
and this we must discover
and there we shall take shelter.

For You And I
The world is full of other people (ooh ooh)
take a look around
We're quick to laugh when they've got troubles (ooh ooh)
and we put 'em down
We go
We're not so hot you know
It's like a roller coaster
On a downward motion
On a one way street
We can't control our feet
We're on the road to ruin
Don't know what we're doin'
She may be quiet
She may be shy
But don't you bring her down
Don't pass her by
The world of wisdom behind her eyes
Could answer everything
But you and I
We seem to wander in a daydream (ooh ooh)
We never look around
The world is full of other people (ooh ooh)
and we put 'em down
We go
We're not so hot you know
It's like a roller coaster
On a downward motion
On a one way street
We can't control our feet
We're on the road to ruin
Don't know what we're doin'
She's not beautiful
But don't make it plain
You underestimate
It's not a game
A heart of gold
Behind the drab
Would comfort anyone
But you and I
Should try to see it from the other side (oooh)
We'll get a shock
It could surprise you
The world is full of other people (ooh ooh)
take a look around
We set the pace while others listen (ooh ooh)
never make a sound
The rain must fall
But we can change
Our understanding
will remain
So take a moment
To wonder why
The world keeps turning
For you and I

It's been quite a roller coaster ride, but I've grown and learned a lot about myself. The greatest thing is being able to interact with fans and touch people's lives... for that I give thanks.

Like an adventure
as we grow
life takes us to the battle field
where we have to fight in order to survive
life is all about war
dealing with heart break
with sorrow and pain
as we goes through life '
the harder it will get
when i open my eyes
is when i begin to see
how hard it is to get what we wanted
life never goes our way
that's the sadden of me
life is like a roller coaster
let; s enjoy the ride
life is like an adventure
that will; never come to an end
you die it goes along without you
you alive it goes with you
i life there's no option
you bleed to carry on
again
life is like a roller coaster
let's enjoy the ride
life is like a journey
everyday we learn a new story
everyday we face a new challenge
life is like a adventure
it takes us anywhere
it blows us anywhere and whenever
sometimes life burn us
where we have to turn to ashes
let's all accept it and enjoyed the journey
like an adventure

Butterflies
Butterflies
In my stomach
Like a dropp on
A roller coaster
It's happens
Every time I look at you
It happens
Every time we talk
You make me smile
You make me laugh
Your what I've wanted
For a long time
You always say the
Sweetest things
You always know
What to do
But it's forbidden
When we're older maybe
Right now I am simply content to
Have you in my life

Life
It's like a roller coaster ride-
You dare yourself to do it
Feeling a little foolish, true,
But taking the trouble, usually conclude
It the right thing to do.

High Roller
By cheap trick
Jump in my love car
Dont have to go very far
Just far enough to show you a thing or two
I can really swing
The best of everything
And I want to have a thing with you
High roller
What I buy is mine
And I always get the things that I choose
My, my, my, such a high roller
I know hes gone away and left you
Ill take real good care of you
Im in the mood for love
Youre all Im thinking of
Ill make you feel alright when were alone
I can really swing
The best of everything
And I want to have a thing with you
High roller
What I buy is mine
And I always get the things that I choose
My, my, my, such a high roller, is that you?
I knew youd be here tonight
And Ill make it alright
Ill take real good care of you
Ill tuck you in tonight
And Ill make it alright
I know hes gone away and left you
Ill take real good care of you

My favorite part of a roller-coaster ride is when you're going up and you're slightly scared and really excited. You don't know what's coming next but you know it's going to be good. You can't handle it, go on the carousel.

Goodbye
Anything that you want
Anything that you need
Anything that you havent gotten yet
That you want from me
Everything that you are
And everything that you thought you wanted
Everything that youre not supposed to want
You want from me
You dont need to understand
Just give in to the band
When its slipping through my hands
And its more than I can take
Its just about to break
All these feelings that we fake
Goodbye
Everyone that you know
Everywhere that you go - you see them
Every feeling that you try to hide inside begins to show
You dont need to understand
Just give in to the band
When its slipping through my hands
And its more than I can take
Its just about to break
And these feelings that we fake
On this roller coaster ride
Its going to collide
With those secrets that we hide
Goodbye
And its more than I can take
Its just about to break
All these feelings that we fake
On this roller coaster ride
Its going to collide
With those secrets that we hide
Goodbye

I've spent about that amount of time trying to tell the public that there was purpose in... my business, my career and the roller coaster ride... how the people I associated with worked together.

Enthusiasm is not the same as just being excited. One gets excited about going on a roller coaster. One becomes enthusiastic about creating and building a roller coaster.

Verb: That's What's Happening
I get my thing in action
To be, to see, to feel, to live
And i put my heart in action
To run, to go, to get, to give
'cause that's where i find satisfaction
To search, to find, to have, to hold
When i use my imagination
I think, i plot, i plan, i dream
Turning in towards creation
Well i make, i write, i dance, i sing
'cause i get my thing in action
Yeah i get my thing in action
Go!
When i'm feeling really active
Well i run, i ride, i swim, i fly!
Other times when life is easy
Oh i rest, i sleep, i sit, i lie
I can take a noun and bend it
Make it a verb and really send it!
'cause i get my thing in action
And i don't know my own power
I can question; like what is it?
I can order; like go get it!
When i need i really need it
When i see i got to have it
'cause i put my thing in action
Yeah i put my thing in action
Yeah i get my thing in action
And i don't even know my power
No!

Smart Dogs
Dancing in youre shadow
I was riding through a different state of mind
No-one can perceive the state Im in
Its like the living world is blind
Its a feeling like no other
Spending easter with youre mother
Darling its a freaky roller coaster ride
Well if you know the feeling baby peel me of the ceiling baby
Did you know planet earth was blue
Turning blue, dont you try to talk to me
Im a space man sitting in the sky
Im a sleeping sweetly honey
Let the sleeping pretty smart dogs lie
Let em fly
Wait until tomorrow
See the summer sun upon the ocean sky
Look at the creator
See the master of magicians fantisise
Its a feeling like no other
Spending easter with youre mother
Darling its a freaky roller coaster ride
Well if you know the feeling baby peel me of the ceiling baby
Did you know planet earth was blue
Turning blue, dont you try to talk to me
Im a space man sitting in the sky
Im a sleeping sweetly honey
Let the sleeping pretty smart dogs lie
Let em fly

Take A Step Back
Go tell it on the mountain
Like it burst forth like a fountain
Try to shake the deep foundations of this land
High up on lovers land
They got hotel rooms so grand
And no one here knows what goes behind closed doors
Take a step back to the middle of the track
Dont you know its rumoured all around
Says you know its come to town
Come on and take a step back to the middle of the track
cos the rumours are around said youre coming back to town
And with every little lie
You come and never blink an eye
You know youve got yourself all tied up
When youre around
Ive got the modern world behind me
Like a needle in a haystack find me
They build you up and then theyre going to burn you down
So take a step back to the middle of the track
The rumours all around
Said youre coming back to me
Come on and take a step back to the middle of the track
Says you know its going upside, you know whats going down
Im haunted by the wanderer deep inside
Wanted by
Haunted by
Im haunted by the wanderer thats deep in my soul
Gonna look back to the middle of the track
And you know its going upside
Le, le, da, le
Telling me
Ah ha, uh hu
Ooh look back to the middle of the track
And you know its going upside
Telling me...
Dont tell me its a bad dream
Dont tell me its not what it seems
Dont tell me pretty soon you know
Gotta stop the roller coaster
Gotta make the most of it
Gonna pull you down
Gotta make the most of it
Better cool it down

My Roller Coaster Love
I have been on
The sweetest ride
Of my life
And it was fun.
I have ridden
My one
And only
Roller coaster of love.
It has its ups
It has its downs
But all in all
It's better than a clown.
I have had fun
I know this now
That this one ride
Is now my life.

Mama Dont Forget To Pray For Me
(larry shell/larry cordle)
Well hello, its good to hear your voice
I hate to call so late, but I didnt have a choice
Im calling you from dallas, headed for l.a.
I wish I had more time to talk, theres so much to say
No I aint forgot how I was raised
But Im livin way too fast
Its a roller coaster ride, up and down
My new job is going great, Im headed for the top
I should be happy but somehow Im not
Sometimes I think the devil has got me by the sleeve
Oh, mama dont forget to pray for me
Tell me how is the weather?
Have you put the garden out?
Are the dogwoods bloomin out behind the house?
No Im not sick, theres nothin wrong, dont wake up dad
I just thought of you and home and got a little sad
No I aint forgot how I was raised
But Im livin way too fast
Its a roller coaster ride, up and down
My new job is going great, Im headed for the top
I should be happy but somehow Im not
Oh, sometimes I think the devil has got me by the sleeve
Oh, mama dont forget to pray for me
Oh, mama dont forget to pray for me
