For A Canberra Tablet

Once on this historic site
Wild men of a dusky shade,
In defiance of all right,
Broke the laws that good men made.

Time goes on - It will not pause
Bringing changes in its wake;
Now 'tis wild men make the laws
For good men, like us, to break.

The Inner Voice - Conscience

Laws on earth can be made, unmade;
Laws can be bettered or worsened by change;
Laws may be just or unjust and never perfect;
Laws can be changed for comfort and convenience.

Laws may change from time to time;
Laws cannot reflect truth always;
Laws depend on the constituent makers;
Laws can never be ideal for all times!

But the inner Voice -the Conscience is static;
It always speaks the truth irrevocably;
It is not transmutable anytime;
It can never lie ever even by chance.

The Inner Voice scores over laws always;
One's conscience always tells what is right;
Freedom of man's conscience is paramount;
Laws to stifle the Inner Voice are simply futile!

Laws are needed but must be just and fair;
Laws aren't needed to fetter the conscience;
Laws are man-made and transmutable;
Conscience is God-given, remaining the same in everyone!

Obey the laws when they are fair and just;
Heed to your Conscience, God's law-maker within!

Niccolo Machiavelli

The main foundations of every state, new states as well as ancient or composite ones, are good laws and good arms you cannot have good laws without good arms, and where there are good arms, good laws inevitably follow.

The Laws of God, The Laws of Man

The laws of God, the laws of man,
He may keep that will and can;
Not I: let God and man decree
Laws for themselves and not for me;
And if my ways are not as theirs
Let them mind their own affairs.
Their deeds I judge and much condemn,
Yet when did I make laws for them?
Please yourselves, say I, and they
Need only look the other way.
But no, they will not; they must still
Wrest their neighbor to their will,
And make me dance as they desire
With jail and gallows and hell-fire.
And how am I to face the odds
Of man's bedevilment and God's?
I, a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made.
They will be master, right or wrong;
Though both are foolish, both are strong.
And since, my soul, we cannot fly
To Saturn nor to Mercury,
Keep we must, if keep we can,
These foreign laws of God and man.

Sonnet: Laws Are For All

No one on earth can be above the law;
But laws are not the same for man world-o’er;
When lawmakers break laws, it causes awe;
Yet, criminals must get jud’cial cover.

But laws, vary from time to time you see,
And innocents to gallows could sent;
Can all afford the exorbitant fees?
Delaying justice can produced a dent.

But corruption has gained mighty in-roads;
And not a field is spared from its illness;
The world is filled by spineless man like toads;
Cities and towns too look like wilderness.

No soul on earth can be above the law;
And yet, men make the laws sometimes so raw.

Probably all laws are useless, for good men do not want laws at all, and bad men are made no better by them.

Wild Wild Life

Im wearin
Fur pyjamas
I ride a
Hot potata
Its tickling my fancy
Speak up, I cant hear you
Here on this mountaintop
Woahoho
I got some wild, wild life
I got some news to tell ya
Woahoho
About some wild, wild life
Here comes the doctor in charge
Woahoho
Shes got some wild, wild life
Aint that the way you like it?
Ho, ha!
Living wild, wild life.
I wrestle, with your conscience
You wrestle, with your partner
Sittin on a window sill, but he
Spends time behind closed doors
Check out mr. businessman
Oh, ho ho
He bought some wild, wild life
On the way to the stock exchange
Oh, ho ho
He got some wild, wild life
Break it up when he opens the door
Whoahoho
Hes doin wild, wild life
I know thats the way you like it
Wo ho
Living wild, wild life
Peace of mind?
Piece of cake!
Thought control!
You get on board anytime you like
Like sittin on pins and needles
Things fall apart, its scientific
Sleeping on the interstate
Woah ho ah
Getting wild, wild life
Checkin in, a checkin out!
Uh, huh!
I got a wild, wild life
Spending all of my money and time
Oh, ho ho
Done too much wild, wild
We wanna go, where we go, where we go
Oh, ho ho!
I doing wild, wild
I know it, thats how we start
Uh, huh
Got some wild, wild life
Take a picture, here in the daylight
Oh, ho!
And its a wild, wild life
Youve grown so tall, youve grown so fast
Oh, ho ho
Wild, wild
I know thats the way you like it
Oh, ho!
Living wild wild wild wild, life.

Sweet sweet wild honey bee
Eat up eat up eat up honey
Mama Im tellin you as sure as Im standing here
Shes my girl and thats the way Im keeping it now mama dear
No good will it do you to stand there and frown at me

My loves coming down since I got a taste of wild honey
You know shes got the sweetness of a honey bee

With all the other stud bees buzzing all around her hive

Driving Me Wild

(stuart emerson)
Producer for bonnie: stuart emerson
A long night
Cutting through the desert heat
The sun was rising
The day was rising the day was standing on its feet
I saw a long shadow snakin down
The dusty road side
To where you were standing
Waiting for the big ride
A vision in black no holding back
I pulled in along side
Drove till night falling light
The time has come to pay the price
Youre driving me wild
Driving me wild
You turn me upside down
Turn me around
You make feel so good
Youre driving me wild
Everyone loves a mystery
Everyone loves to dream
A real cliffhanger
A real good thriller
But how about love for real
Theres a God in the sky
Coz we made it all night
The warm river flowing inside
But the river ran dry
As day went by
He couldnt wait to say goodbye
Youre driving me wild
Driving me wild
You turn me upside down
Turn me around
You make me feel so good
Youre driving me wild
Everyone loves a mystery
Youre driving me wild
Driving me wild

Justice requires that to lawfully constituted Authority there be given that respect and obedience which is its due; that the laws which are made shall be in wise conformity with the common good; and that, as a matter of conscience all men shall render obedience to these laws.

The Laws

Write down your laws so you inherit,
Laws bestow good and we thank them.
A singular noun is justice, the name of your soul,
It composes your hearing and sight for the high ones.
Lawful multitudes strive to occupy us in their height,
Prescriptions are made, rules are rectified.
A vein shall bleed, for those who see the law of the nation,
A heart shall weep for the blood to be cared, by this nation.
Write the better laws compared with lower ones,
And the pillars of happiness stand still despite tremors.

But black people fall for that same argument, and they go around talking about law breakers. We did not make the laws in this country. We are neither morally nor legally confined to those laws. Those laws that keep them up, keep us down.

Butter

Pull me from the toaster
Straight into the roaster
Fill my head with the stuff
Brightest dreams are made of
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Duh
Promising the big guns
Reward when the light comes
Screaming from the damage done
Screaming from the damage done
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Duh
Butter me up, butter me up
Butter me up, butter me up
Butter me up, butter me up
Butter me up, butter me up
Butter me up like I know you will
Cover it up like I know you will
Better yourself like I know you will
Breaking the trust like you always will
Be good for it, you never will
Be good for it, you never will
Be good for it, you never will
Be good for it, you never will
Butter me up, butter me up
Butter me up, butter me up
Butter me up, butter me up
Butter me up, butter me up
Duh
So you think you got the best
Thought I was like all the rest
Reaping from the damage done
Reaping from the damage done
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Bringing me down again
Duh

Get Wild

Get wild! ah!
Get wild! ooh, ooh, baby!
Get wild! {x4}
When ure sick of that 9 2 5
And ure ready 2 come alive
When u look both high and low
And u cant find a trumpet that blows
Come on baby (aw shucks!), where the good times never die
Come on baby (aw shucks!), where the damsels good and fly
Come on baby, u can shake your funky monkey til it cry
Polyvinyl acetate will keep your monkey high
If u wanna get real freaky, nows the time 2 try (come on yall)
Chorus:
Get wild! - everybody up in the place
Get wild! - it dont matter what sex or race
Get wild! - all u nasty girls and boys
If u wanna get wild, say yeah (yeah!) - make some noise!
When u want 2 get in the groove
But the music dont make u move
Hip the dj 2 a new cd
Anything by the n.p.g.
Come on baby (aw shucks!), where the good times never die
Come on baby (aw shucks!), where the damsels good and fly
Come on baby, u can shake your funky monkey til it cry
Polyvinyl acetate will keep your monkey high
If u wanna get real freaky, nows the time 2 try (come on yall)
Chorus
Get wild!
Like u know u need 2
Pick a funky outfit short and see through
Versace got it going on in the gold mesh
Why dont u try it on 2 night when u get dressed?
Get wilds the only aroma that my nose will see (get wild!)
Why dont u spray a little where u think Im gonna be?
And u know, u know what shoes 2 wear
The ones so high ure scared
Ououo, peligro que aqui yo vengo! {oh oh, danger 4 here I come!}
(get wild!)
When u cant find the g 2 your go
Even charged, your batterys low
When the smokes 2 thick 2 blow
Theres a brand new high we know
Come on baby (aw shucks!), where the good times never die
Come on baby (aw shucks!), where the damsels good and fly
Come on baby, u can shake your funky monkey til it cry
Polyvinyl acetate will keep your monkey high
If u wanna get real freaky, nows the time 2 try (come on yall)
Get wild! - everybody up in the place, yes
Get wild! - it dont matter what sex or race
Get wild! - all u nasty girls and boys (get wild!)
If u wanna get wild, say yeah (yeah!) - make some noise!
Get wild! (shake it!)
Shake your money maker
Get wild! (shake it!)
Shake your money maker
Get wild! (shake it!) (shake it!)
Shake your money maker
Get wild!

Wild As The Wind (feat. Trisha Yearwood)

Johnny grew up
On the dark side of the law
Livin' in the shadow
Of the light he never saw
Rosie came 'round
In the way that true love does
Just when you're lookin' elsewhere
For the thing that never was
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love
So they team up
And they traveled on thier way
Lookin' for forever
For every yesterday
She brings him hope
In the way that Angels do
Takin' him to heaven
In ways he never knew
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love
Wild as the wind
Every so often
He gets a stray look in his eye
She knows how to hold him
Without ever askin' why
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love
Wild as the wind
Wild as the wind is
Wild as the wind is love

Wild Child

im a wild child
thats what they say
im a wild child
till my dying day
im a wild child
and you wont regret
cuz ill bring a party
that youll never forget

they say that im crazy
that ill never calm down
so you better watch out
when i come to your town
dont listen dont care
you cant controle me
if you know whats good for you
just let me be

cuz im a wild child
thats what they say
im a wild child
till my dying day
im a wild child
and im neva gonna change
im an uncontrolable beast
that you just cant cage

when i was younger they used to
lock me in my room
hoping and praying
that ill calm down soon
they dont understand
that im neva gona stop
i just broke free
somone call a cop

cuz im a wild child
thats what they say
im a wild child
till my dying day
im a wild child
im hell on wheels
dont diss it dont play
till you know how it feels!
