Normally, if you go through a game without attracting attention, you are doing a hell of a job.

They Could Care Less
If you say you are better than me.
And I 'think' I am better than that.
Then why are we both envious,
Of those
Who don't seem to share our jealousies?
And they could care less.
If 'that' is obvious to us...
Perhaps they have something,
We both should investigate!
Since neither one of us,
Are attracting their attention!

It's All In The Game
Its All in the Game
(Nat King Cole Album: Love is the Thing)
Many a tear has to fall
But its all in the game
All in the wonderful game
That we know as love
You have words with him
And your futures looking dim
But these things your heart can rise above
Once in a while he wont call
But its all in the game
Soon hell be there at your side
With a sweet bouquet
And hell kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your heart will fly away
(Repeat)

Hell and Half-Hell
Hell became a game in mid-winter,
Where are we now?
Hell exhaled last summer and first summer,
Why are we allowed?
Hell was told not to be Heaven in spring,
When would that be?
Hell is half of all Pain in the year through,
And since when?

Obvious Motivations
People who complain,
About life and what it is not...
Often are disappointed,
They can not use others
To obtain an advantage,
That highlights a disadvantage!
Attracting an attention,
To their lack of prevention curtailed.
They can not see this...
As they look for others to agree with them.
That's how obvious their motivations are.
Provoking hollow goals,
With empty wishes to achieve
Absolutely nothing for themselves...
Or anyone else that sympathizes,
Within listening distance.

Why Must You Lie
why must you lie to me
is it for my attention
my sympathy
or a addiction
do you want me to chase you
so you can blow me off
be mean to me
or piss me off
im too tired for this game
we are both too old
this game needs to stop
before one of us explodes

Its All In The Game
Many a tear has to fall
But its all in the game
All in the wonderful game
That we know as love
You had words with him
And your futures looking dim
But these things your heart can rise above
Once in a while he wont call
But its all in the game
Soon hell be there by your side
With a small bouquet
And hell kiss your lips
And caress your fingertips
And your heart will fly away
You had words with him
And your futures looking dim
But these things your heart can rise above
Once in a while he wont call
But its all in the game
Soon hell be there by your side
With a small bouquet
And hell kiss your lips
And caress your fingertips
And your heart will fly away

No Mercy
You say youre always right and Im wrong
You tell me I am weak and you are strong
Always tried so hard
Now youve gone too far
Ill give all or nothing now to play my cards.
You pretend its for fun
In the end when its done
You might say its a game
But I will show no mercy.
You talk so much but you dont have a clue
You lie so much you even think its true
Now Im in the lead
Want to see you bleed
Say goodbye I am forever in control.
You must learn oh so well
You shall burn in my hell
You might say its a game
I will show no mercy.
And now its said and done its all completed
You think youve won you know you are defeated
Now its all so clear
Im your greatest fear
You have lived a lie be prepared to die.
You must learn oh so well
You shall burn in my hell
You might say its a game
I will show no mercy.

The Taker
Hes a giver, hell give her
The kind of attention that shes never known
Hes a helper, hell help her
To open the doors that she cant on her own
Hes a lover, hell love her
In ways that she never has been loved before
And hes a getter, hell get her
By gettin her into the world shes been hungerin for
cause hes a taker, hell take her
To places and make her fly higher than shes ever dared to
Hell take his time before takin advantage
Takin her easy and slow
And after hes taken the body and soul
That she gives him, hell take her for granted
Then hell take off and leave her
Takin all of her pride as he goes
Yes, hes a taker, hell take her ...
Hes a charmer, and hell charm her
With money and manners that I never learned
Hes a leader, and hell lead her
Across pretty bridges hes planning to burn
Hes a talker, hell talk her
Right off of her feet, but he wont talk for long
Cause hes a doer, and hell do her
The way that I never
And damned if he wont do her wrong
cause hes a taker, hell take her
To places and make her fly higher than shes ever dared to
Hell take his time before takin advantage
Takin her easy and slow
And after hes taken the body and soul
That she gives him, hell take her for granted
Then hell take off and leave her
Takin all of her pride as he goes
Yes, hes a taker, hell take her ...

Lay Me Down
(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Hes warmer than the radiator
Sweeter than caramel
The way he weaves his madness
And it puts me in a spell
He twists me round his finger
And I enjoy it so
Hold me in his tender arms
And never let me go
Hell never let me go
Never let me go
Never let me go
Chorus:
Do, down, lay me down (x4)
Theres never complication
Hell never compromise
His kisses never ending
And they send me to the sky
Hes understanding
And hell never let me down
He fills me up with passion
And hell always be around
Hell always be around
Hell always be around
Always be, he will always be around
Do, down, lay me down (x2)
You hear what I say
Do, down, lay me down (x3)
Hell never let me down
Do, down, lay me down
Do you know what it means to me
Do, down, lay me down
And hes everything, oh baby
Hell always be around
Hell always be around
Hell always be around
Hell always be, hell always be around

Suspicious Are Those With Wicked Wishes
There is nothing more disturbing,
Than someone observed...
Espressing joy and happiness.
For no apparent reason.
And those on drugs,
Have a certain appearance.
While those alcoholic,
Have eyes clouded in denial.
Those natural high lifers,
Are often thought of to be crazed.
Or completely detached from reality.
And today this amazes those distracted by it!
How often is it that one is seen,
Smiling and content?
And absolutely self abuse free.
While attracting attention AND comments.
Has a rehabilitation been the cause of this sensation?
Something of a discipline has occurred.
With a vibrancy that expresses verve.
How encouraging!
And this takes nerve.
Suspicious are those with wicked wishes.
'Oh...
They 'have' to be doing something more than nothing!
Because too much attention they bring to it! '
And discipline and self respect,
Are the last things loose lips digest in minds to accept!
With an evilness projected.
And leaving those 'bugs' that fly up their asses,
To camp out in a permanent residence.
Although finding it unsafe to stay there!

Personal Attention
Personal attention
a gifted child leads
Personal attention

Personal attention

Personal attention

Personal attention
a parent plants the seeds
Personal attention

Thus..Personal attention

Cricket
(sung by the vicar)
Some people say that life is a game, well if this is so
Id like to know the rules on which this game of life is based.
I know of no game more fitting than the age old game of cricket
It has honour, it has character and its british.
Now God laid down the rules of life when he wrote those ten commandments
And to cricket those ten same rules shall apply.
Show compassion and self-righteousness and be honest above all
And come to gods call with bat and ball.
Now the devil has a player and hes called the demon bowler,
Hes shrewd, hes rude and hes wicked.
He is sent by sinful satan and hes out to take your wicket
And you know that thats not cricket.
Hell baffle you with googlies with leg breaks and offspin
But keep a level head and dont let that demon in.
So keep a straight bat at all times, let the Bible be your guide
And youll get by, yes youll get by.
All through your life hell try to bowl you out
Beware the demon bowler.
Hes crafty and deceitful and hell try to l.b.w.,
And bowl a maiden over.
The devil takes the weak in spirit and so we must always be courageous
And remember that God is on your side.
So keep old satan in your sights and play the straight and narrow line
And youll get by, yes youll get by.

Battle Hymn
Alright baby. You know how to have a good time don't cha
It's the way you stand
You're always attracting attention
Now with your hands on your hips, and a
Snarl on your lips
Your eyes wore the look of danger
There's a lion in your heart,
That's set to quick start,
To a glance from any stranger
You give as good as you get
No one's beat you yet
You take the lead
You never need
You know all the moves you've got to make
You take it all, you take it all the way
Ya never do things by half
You're a man with a reputation
You never shy when the problems fly
You can cope with any situation
You take the wheel and crack the whip
You never slip
You rule the roost
You always boast
Yeah you're lookin' after number one
You take it all, you take it all the way

An Asset That Has Been Kept an Aspect of Victory
A game played that seeks to be effective,
Should at least have one who feels in competition.
What would be the advantage?
To say a winning has been won,
From someone who has long stopped interest...
Is not a game.
As much as it is a display of repeated shallowness.
And once that is witnessed...
Only those impressed with their own egos,
Seem the last to convince
Their attempts do not provoke attention.
And isn't 'that' the idea?
To keep what is not suspected,
An asset that has been kept an aspect of victory.

attention to my words
I love you
I don't know what you heard
and this fire

well that's something
then I shall know the truth
I said you roll it
and then it breaks your tooth

I love this girl

One Who Dares to Be The Maverick
The art of flying low...
Keeps the wings of one,
From becoming emotionally attached.
And scratches received,
Aren't cut deep to bleed.
A healing perceived...
And done,
Continues in a flight undetected.
One can land or choose to soar.
As long as the height of one's flight...
Is accepted as a temporary blindness,
That can be easily excused...
With a taste for nonconformity,
Expected.
And this is overlooked,
By those unaccustomed...
To take anyone serious enough,
To fly as high as they wish...
Without attracting attention,
To the ease of it!
Keeping such missions successfully gained.
And maintained...
With patience,
By the one who dares to be the maverick!

The Secret Revealed
The whole world is retarded,
Proving once again the infallible
Law of attraction of the prey
Attracting the predator,
And the predator attracting the prey.
But if you vibrate at a higher frequency,
You will only attract the lower ones,
Because the universe levels
Everything back to its retarded
State of perfection.
So you repeat again and again:
I'm stupid yet I'm perfect
Out of the fullness of my stupidity.
In the world where ugly is beautiful
Many doors open up everywhere.
Because it's all a matter of quantum
Consciousness, where the brain
Of the participant resides somewhere
Else, attracting the infinite
Possibilities of the retarded One.
Lots of lights flash in a room,
But the mind itself remains dark,
Hung like frozen Einsteins and Newtons
In the cosmic closet of Deepak Chopra,
Chopping away at the quantum
Sphincter of inner space.
Little children like stars sing at nauseam
In Pavarotti tenors and mezzo-sopranos,
Making cosmic orders of enlightened
Stupidity.
While a thousand monkeys laugh on
The horizon.
All is bliss - bless your ignorant
Lives.

Love Is Hell
There's strange weather in the back of the room
And she's pretty, Jesse's spinning the tunes
Eyelashes, and some white leather boots
God, what have I been drinking?
I could be serious but I'm just kiddin' around
I could be anything, anything but sticking around
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is . . . hell
Is . . .hell
It's raining, I can see it outside
Funny I'm still in it
Just sitting here with Johnny and Raph'
Untll the room starts spinning
I could be serious but I'm just kiddin' around
I could be anything, nothing, whatever, oh well
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is . . . hell
Love is . . . hell
Love is . . . hell
Love is . . . hell
Love is . . . hell
Love is . . . hell
Love is . . . hell
Is . . . hell
