The Whore Of Mensa (with apologies to Woody Allen)

I had a sudden passion
For philosophical debate
I'd talked often 'bout the football
But not dialectics with my mates
I often felt entrapped inside
Plato's famous cave
With shadows black upon the walls
My intellect enslaved
I craved for stimulation
My mind was going to waste
I Googled and found Bhuddism
But Kant and Hegel's more my taste
Then one day in Yellow Pages
Just browsing through 'cos i was bored
Something caught my interest
So i tried to find out more
There were educated women
Most with PhD's
You could engage with for an hour
And discuss philosophies
Trembling, i dialled the number
I was feeling quite depressed
Was this for real i asked myself
Or just a front for sex?
'Hello' she said so sultry
My hair stood all end
'Are you looking for deep insights
Or a more demanding blend
Of argument and discourse
Of conflict and debate
For the softer stuff we charge less
And the rest a higher rate
I can tell you i was nervous
My fantasies had come to life
I opted first for ethics
Quite careful of the price
She was really quite amazing
Not once did she hold back
She gave me such a hard time
And kept my arguments on track
'I'll call again quite shortly'
I whispered breathlessly
Next time i think i'd like to try
Epistemology
I was hooked then - I'll admit it
I wanted something really hard
But over time it damaged
All my credit cards
I confess all this now freely
I was addicted to her mind
She was the Whore of Mensa
But of a quite Platonic kind.

On The Edge

Everlast Lyrics
On The Edge
I'll assure you and ensure you you're the one I love
All the Gods up in heaven sent you from above
Sent you down to Earth just to make me smile
Don't you know you're the only thing that's worth while
In my life, be my wife, don't turn me down
You're the best, so say yes and I will never frown
You know you got me on the edge of happiness and despair
Doesn't matter if I slip cause I know you're there
To catch my fall, all in all I'm havin a ball
Whether we're dancin and romancin or leanin on the wall
When I'm with you, girl, I could never be bored
You're so fine and you're mine yes, I thank the Lord
Every minute of the hour, all hours of the day
There's one thing I been dyin to say
I love you
You got me on the edge (2x)
We met by chance, I walked in when you were workin
I gave you a glace, advanced and caught you smirkin
At me, the E-v-e, you know the rest
I asked you for your number and began my quest
To conquer your heart, body, soul and mind
You came around and I found that you were one of my kind
So I laid the same old drag, whispered in your ear
But that didn't work and I started to fear
That you might be too much woman for Everlast to handle
In my eyes no girl could hold a candle to you
I was confused - hey yo, what's my next move?
My boys said, "Relax E, and act real smooth"
But that approach wasn't workin and I realized
That this girl was really different
That scared me a little but it also intrigued me
I wanted to know if you were serious, not tryin to lead me
On, so I confronted you and asked you the time
You said you felt the same way for me and that you'd be mine
Forever

Up For Debate?

Listening to that ole' Mississippi beat
And lookin' for clever converstaion-i take a look
So many issues at hand to debate
Surely enough to publish a little ole' book;
I found him in the corner hunched over
Drinkin' his Jack Daniels straight
Talkin' 'bout his Cobalt Blue Chev pickup
Not much at all to debate;
His closely cropped hair's red and white stood out
But his mostly white beard was gone
Same ole' large belly just hanging over his belt
Talkin' 'bout bein' up to no wrong! ;
Talkin' 'bout how he watched her closely!
Parked 'cross from her home for only a moment yesterday
How he wrote about her constantly
And got no where to his utter dismay! ;
'I dream about her constantly'
'When i'm awake she is forever on my mind'
I open my eyes wide to search
It is her sweet face that i find;
'I am totally consumed by her words'
Read them and always apply them to me
'Yes, i know she truly cares deeply '
Yet, why is it so hard for her to see? ;
Someone told me that she was annoyed by my attention
Now, that is just ridiculous to me
'As i am so devoted to her every breath'
'Know that we are fated to be! '.
He wanted to know what i thought!
I told him that it wasn't up for debate!
He asked me what i meant by that!
I answered honestly: 'It's Obsession And Hate!

Give Me A Call

Ooh you draw such pictures in my head
Ooh with so few words I know what you said
Until the time comes
To carry the one
Make that dream real
And be sure it stays done
So let that thought
Bloom in your mind
A vision thats caught
Never left behind
You should just give me a call
You should just give me a call
I think about you much more than I should
Now theres a structure nothing had once stood
No more bluffing its cards on the table time
What it must be we will take it as a sign
So just give me a call
So just give me a call
Sunset and my love left me
winter and Im so far
In darkness will it lead me
where the meanings are
I miss and think of you often
no flowers I forgot them
the weathers the same
nothing happens
no loves a hard lesson
patience and years will refashion
what hours will undo
and circles not yet quite circles
somehow close true
I keep on hearing the things that you said
I keep on feeling you go straight to my head
No more bluffing its cards on the table time
What it must be we will take it as a sign
So just give me a call
So just give me a call
I call you up but you wont talk to me
No space for words theres just no room
I drift away but you pull me in
Im the ocean youre the moon
Ooh how do I know if its just me
Sometimes I think that it must be
You gotta know you can trust me
I think about you much more than I should
Now theres a structure nothing had once stood
No more bluffing its cards on the table time
What it must be we will take it as a sign
So just give me a call
So just give me a call
So just give me a call
So just give me a call

Clock back

It is very hard put clock back
When enough water has flown and so much is at stake
You were always fascinating and much of interest
Not to think of anything but how to utilize it best

I have flown to and fro number of times
Touched your cheeks and came back many times
It was all dreamy affair and gave me immense pleasure
Something not felt this before but as if of precious treasure

"I can be your friend provided you assure" these words still ring
Like beautiful melody heard in early morning from cuckoo when she sings
You were so scared to admit new friends when I requested
It was first encounter that flowed form net friend and tested

It was never looking since then as still continued
Each time the sentiment is felt and frequently renewed
We had close link in mind that built good relation
Even that reached to the extent of cementing with indication

You were forcible in putting seal over it for common good
As we were striving hard for some nutrition or food
It was no doubt moral support and feeling for each other
You were no where to be seen around or very much near

You are back again with many ups and down in life
It has made you litter bitter about the name of wife
You were in real term "Pakizzah"* or sacred in name
The irony of fate really had destined to pass the blame

It still rings in my ears like bell to remand so many things
I was fed to believe about poetry or like something
You were born poetess that injected many themes
I flew in dreamy world with "What is there in names"

You have stood your ground well and nourished
In your world with feet on ground and flourished
I feel each pulse of your breathe when hold the hand
You are felt as if of close one even more than a special friend

It is still a deep feeling and set in motion an thought
It needs not be explained, hardly to be mentioned or fought
I feel it is desire on both the ends to see each other and unite
The deep feeling still burns inside and sometimes fuel to ignite

I Fell For Your Love

Hey baby so now youre goin, is your mind relieved?
Did you get what you wanted and have some fun playin make believe?
I have never lost so much pleasure, so its hard to be nice.
Hey baby feel my hand, aint it cold as ice?
Chorus
cause I fell for your love, when I was out of my mind.
I fell for your love, and now you tell me its time.
To kiss it away, to stand here and say, good-bye.
Cant you understand the way I live?
Half a love is all that I can give.
Lonely ladies and empty faces for a long long time.
And you might be one baby when we meet again and Ill still try to make you mine.
Chorus
I fell for your love when I was out of my mind.
I fell for your love when love was so hard to find.
I gave you my heart and now you tell me its time,
To give up my love when its so damn hard to find.
Love is so hard to find.
Love is so hard to find.
Love is so hard to find.
Im so lonely baby.
Love is so hard to find.
Them empty faces, all I wanted was you.
Love is so hard to find.
I gave you my heart and now you tell me its time,
Love is so hard to find.
To stand and say good-bye.
Love is so hard to find.
Love is so hard to find.
Love is so hard to find.
When its so damn hard to find.
Love is so hard to find.
I fell for your love when I was out of my mind.

Stretch Out And Wait

On the high-rise estate
What's at the back of your mind ?
Oh, a three-day debate
On a high-rise estate
What's at the back of your mind ?
Two icy-cold hands conducting the way
It's the eskimo blood in my veins
Amid concrete and clay
And general decay
Nature must still find a way
So ignore all the codes of the day
Let your juvenile influences sway
This way and that way (this way)
This way and that way (this way)
God, how sex implores you
To let yourself lose yourself
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Oh ... let your puny body, lie down, lie down
As we lie, you say
As we lie, you say
Stretch out and ...
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Oh ... let your puny body lie down, lie down
As we lie, you say :
Will the world end in the night time ?
(i really don't know)
Or will the world end in the day time ?
(i really don't know)
And is there any point ever having children ?
Oh, i don't know
What i do know is we're here and it's now
So ... stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
There is no debate, no debate, no debate
How can you conciously contemplate
When there's no debate, no debate ?
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Wait
Wait
Wait

Love's Complexity

I once caught a scent of sadness blowing in the air
which smelled of love's conceit not of fragrance fair.
It affected me rather badly so that I couldn't hide
the feeling of pain in my heart there deep inside.

Like a time when something lasting is hard to keep
the harvest of love between hearts two may not reap.
True love is a call to sacrifice all for one's beloved
a challenge and offering that can't be safely recovered.

If one follows a particular course without any real distraction
one reaches the goal or end that ensures complete satisfaction.
There's a great similarity where the path of love is concerned
that any falling out by either one and both lovers get burned.

As love has many aspects or sides to it that are very hard to comprehend
a strong disagreement or misunderstanding may cause the loss of a friend.
When true friendship is involved though and mutual interest is maintained
there always tends to be a reconciliation and the bond of love is sustained.

This gives credit to the saying that 'true love will always find a way'
the dying embers of love in the lovers heart's will re ignite some day.
As love is the feeling of oneness between people of the heart and mind
we should know that to give and receive in love is of a universal kind.

Pretty Fly

You know it's kind of hard
Just to get along today
Our subject isn't cool
But he fakes it anyway
He may not have a clue
And he may not have style
But everything he lacks
Well he makes up in denial
So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway
He's gonna play the field, and keep it real
For you no way, for you no way
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world needs wannabe's
So do that brand new thing
He needs some cool tunes
Not just any will suffice
But they didn't have Ice Cube
So he bought Vanilla Ice
Now cruising in his Pinto, he sees homies as he pass
But if he looks twice
They're gonna kick his lily ass
Now he's getting a tattoo
He's gettin' ink done
He asked for a '13', but they drew a '31'
Friends say he's trying too hard
And he's not quite hip
But in his own mind
He's the dopest trip
So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway
He's gonna play the field, and keep it real
For you no way, for you no way
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world needs wannabe's
The world loves wannabe's
So let's get some more wannabe's
And do that brand new thing

Too Far

Written: kylie minogue
Caught up in this house
Trapped my very own self in the snare of my mind
No more space than a slither
What Id give for deep breath inside
Where the chaos has me captive
Where theres no exit sign
Where I fuel the stupid fire with these feelings of mine
Lured into this den
Its bitter and I want the sweetness again
A taste that I agree with
Get me past these perils and to my eden
Where the silence is a comfort
Where there is no one else
Where Ill be up from under and can uncurl myself.
Too many, too much, too hard
Help me, this time I went too far
Too many, too much, too hard
Help me, this time I went too far
Can I smash all of this open
Can I pass the hurt with a little pain
I wanna see all of it crumble
And start afresh and over again
My eyes are wide open
But I can hardly see
Will laughter find a way around these silent tears
Too many, too much, too hard
Help me, this time I went too far
Too many, too much, too hard
Help me, this time I went too far

Talked Me Into It

I'll stand and hold onto
everything I wished for
I'm stubborn, but you talked me into it
You have the key to my mind
I melt in front of you
You turn me on without trying
You talked me into it
And I let you, at that time
I could have believed
anything you said
You ignored me before that night
but I was desperate for your attention
If I was psychic,
woulda wished for anything but you
You talked me into it
Into everything I wished for
I'm stubborn, but you talked me into it
Wondered if you knew I existed
I was enchanted with you
Never felt more forgotten
I'm stubborn, but you laughed
Said, I'll never leave you in the rain
I took your word, let you
Talk me into it
You're the only one that has
enough of me to love
and wish
You talked me into it
Banished me to the back of your mind
after all these years
Never felt more forgotten
I'm stubborn, but
I remember that night
When you talked me into it
But I stood and held onto
everything I wished for
I'm stubborn, but you talked me into it

Hooked On A Feeling

I cant stop this feeling
Deep inside of me
Boy you just dont realize
What you do to me
Your lips are sweet as candy
The taste is on my mind
You just keep my thirsty
For another cup of wine
When you hold me
In you arms so tight
You let me know
Eveythings alright
I, Im hooked on a feeling
Im high on believing
That youre in love with me
Ive got it bad for you, darling
But I dont need a cure
Ill just stay addicted
And hope I can endure
All the good love
When were all alone
Keep it up, boy
Yeah you turn me on
I, Im hooked on a feeling
Im high on believing
That youre in love with me
When you hold me
In your arms so tight
You let me know
Everythings alright
I, Im hooked on a feeling
Im high on believing
That youre in love with me
I said Im hooked on a feeling...

Lost Man Insane

Damn this is crazy, this is crazy, this is crazy…

Because we’ve been separated for the longest time now, but a particular bond has always held us together,
You’re not mine and I’m not yours but there’s still something hidden, deep in between the distance…
When you told me what happened, I wanted to punch down the wall of regret I built around my heart,
No shower can wash me of this uneasy feeling because I was coming back; at least that’s what I thought…
I just needed a little more time… I can’t take it back, or change what is done, what is now or what is reality…
So many times I wanted to call you back and lay bricks to a new foundation, I just never seemed to find the time in me…
Sad to say you were on my list to do, to love you the way a good man is supposed to, the way I was supposed to…
I’m mad at you, but even angrier at my actions, because I let idle time take control of my passion…
My heart finally dropped when I realized this means no more you and us…

This is crazy, this is crazy, this is crazy…

Because that was supposed to be my bundle of joy you carry inside you…
And I was supposed to be the one to help guide it…
That was supposed to be my cradle of life that has been planted deep inside you…
My facial expressions show it, and I don’t think there’s any way to hide it…
I was supposed to be the one that holds it and let it know that daddy is right here…
And I was supposed to be the one to assure it that daddy isn’t going anywhere…
I was supposed to be the one to help nurture and expand its mind…
I’m sorry because I got lost in the world, caught up in all of its shine,
And now it seems I’ve run out of time…

This is crazy, this is crazy, God damn, this is crazy…

Every Minute, Every Hour

Another day has gone by
Still have you picture, by my side
I cant forget when you left
When we said goodbye
I know its hard to carry on,
Can I survive?
Every mintue, every hour
I just cant get you out of my mind
No matter how hard I try
Every day, every night
I wish you were back in my life
Can we give it just one more chance,
This time
Looking back on it now
Oooo
Where we went wrong
I cant figure out
Wish I could turn back the time
And make you mine
Is it too late
For us to try
A second time
Every mintue, every hour
I just cant get you out of my mind
No matter how hard I try
Every day, every night
I wish you were back in my life
Can we give it just one more chance,
This time
I just dont see things the same
I cant get out of the way
(its clouding my mind)
Its clouding my mind
Ill make it all up to you
Just tell me what I should do
I want you back in my life
Gimme one more chance
Every mintue, every hour
I just cant get you out of my mind
No matter how hard I try
Every day, every night
I wish you were back in my life
Can we give it just one more chance,
Every mintue, every hour
I just cant get you out of my mind
No matter how hard I try
Every day, every night
I wish you were back in my life
Can we give it one more chance,
This time
Can we give it just one more chance
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Life Gets Me To Wonder

(10/01/11)

Life gets me to wonder, life gets me to think
Am I losing my mind, am I on the brink.
So many questions that enter my mind every day
I think hard about one, and the rest seem to fade away.

Once I find the answer then to the next level I will go
It’s amazing - how god lets us know.
Every question and every answer is a step
That we must climb - and we’ll continue to do this
Till the end of our time.

We will always have questions - that’s why
God gave us a mind.
Knowledge is power on that I don’t deny.

But there are more questions than any of us care to admit
And when we can’t answer them - we surely catch a fit.
Questions about health, love, work, religion
Just to name a few - this list goes on
What are we supposed to do.?

Sidetracked By an Ego Boost

Keep believing you're the last best thing on Earth.
I'm sure to you that has a worth!
You remind me frequently I do not meet your expectations...
Or satisfy your preference list!
You call to tell me this all the time!
As if you'd like me to play along,
To keep what I'm missing in my mind.
It's your choice to insist on playing hard to get!

But if you notice this at all...
I have shown no interest!
I'm holding nothing back to stall,
To participate in debate or conquests!

And the 'last best thing on Earth',
Wouldn't bother me to suggest I'm less than dirt.
Unless you feel you have been picked over?
Sidetracked by an ego boost...
You need me to help you hoist!

And the last of anything I select to be with me,
Is not the first thing on my mind I would want!
It certainly wouldn't be...
Anything I'd give time to consider,
As an opportunity!

Out Of My Mind

(lebon, rhodes, cuccurullo)
Light a candle, lay flowers at the door
For those whore left behind and the ones whove gone before
Here it comes now, sure as silence follows rain,
The taste of you upon my lips, the fingers in my brain
Ever gentle, as it kills me where I lay
Who am I to resist, who are you to fail?
Got to get you out of my mind
But I cant escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you whats left to believe in?
Could be so sorry, for the way it had to go
But now I feel your presence in a way I could not know
And I wonder, do you ever feel the same?
In whispering darkness, do you ever here my name?
(chorus)
(here in the back of your mind)
(here in the back of your mind)
And how could you dare,
To become so real (become so real..)
When youre just a ghost in me
And ive....
(chorus)
Here in the back of your mind
Deep in the back of your mind
Here in the back of your mind
Deep in the back of your mind
Deep in the back of your mind...

Lately I've got this funny feeling
Something don't feel the same
But he's telling me I'm the one to blame
Yes I know that he still gives me good loving
But when he's deep inside
There's somebody else on his mind

[Mary] But it gets so hard to know

Virus Of The Mind

Well I was watching this talk show the other day
And on it there was this guy and he was saying
When you let other people tell you whats right
When you leave your instinct and your own truth behind he said
Thats a virus of the mind. thats a virus of the mind
I guess its kind of like losing your sight; for a
Second you think that they might be right, and it
Feeds the doubts you have inside, and it
Almost starts to feel like a crime
To follow your own rhythm and rhyme
Yeah Im pretty happy living in my own sweet time Im pretty happy
And I dont need your virus of the mind
Well I went to this party thing last night
A lot of people I hadnt seen in a long time
And they wanted to know about my life,
But making me feel like it wasnt quite right
Like wheres your kids and wheres your car?
I said I dont have either but I have a guitar
And I ended up feeling like I was a freak
So I found some wine and something to eat
And I talked to a dog to pass the time
Told myself Im doing fine,
Its just a virus of the mind
Its just a virus of the mind
Yeah Im pretty happy living in my own sweet time Im pretty happy
And I dont need your virus of the mind
Its in the deep of your soul
Its on the tip of your tongue
Its the feeling you get when you feel young
Its in the sound of the beat
Its in the base of your spine
Its in your gut reaction, yeah every time
But they tell you what you should have,
They tell you who you should be
Its in the picturesand ads and in the magazines
Im kicking it off like a bug in the breeze
cause is anyone out there inside me?
I said is anyone out there inside me?
I say is anyone?
