Why Is It?

why is it...
patriots dont smell like freedom?
Christians dont act like Christ?
lovers dont give like love?
and dead people need you to weep?

a free country doesnt allow freedom?
poverty doesnt justify?
great men forget about small men?
and you've forgotten my name?

why is it?
and why do i care?

Corporations, Not People!

corporations,
are not people.
democracy and plutocracy

are not the same thing.
equality doesnt come
with class structure....

and you cannot brutalize
citizens peacefully protesting
in a land that's really free!

promises dont feed hunger,
homeless doesnt mean worthless.
freedom doesnt invade other countries

for barrels of oil and back room deals.
poverty doesnt denote ignorance,
and lies never make the truth!

corporations are not people...
and the people have had enough!

Doesnt Smell Like

blasphemy!
equality, not equal.
dignity, dont qualify!
bill of rights, big brother....
one vote, doesnt count...

spirituality, apathy.
patriots, body count.
liberate, invade!
speak out, shot down.....
educate, imprison.

working pride, beg for food...
land of plenty, homeless.
elite few, faceless numbers.
society, depravity...
humanity, self-indulged....

doesnt smell like,
...doesnt even smell like...
FREEDOM!

I Dont Get It

I dont get why you can take
Such a big amount of what we work so hard to f*cking make
I dont get it
I dont get why we cant do
What we want to when it doesnt hurt you, man I dont get it
I dont get it I dont get why we cant smoke
Just because you say its bad what mother nature chose to grow
I dont get it I dont get why we should change
What we said here so we dont have to explain I dont get it
I cant make sense of anything
I cant make friends with anyone
I dont get anything at all
It doesnt matter anymore
I cant make sense of anything
I cant make friends with anyone
I hope someday I figure out
Where the f*ck youre talking from
I dont get anything at all
It doesnt matter anymore
I dont get anything at all
It doesnt matter anymore
I dont... I dont... I dont .. I dont... I dont... I dont.... I dont.... I dont...

Love Doesnt Ask Why

Love doesnt ask why
It speaks from the heart
And never explains
Dont you know that
Love doesnt think twice
It can come all at once
Or whisper from a distance
Dont ask me if this feelings right or wrong
It doesnt have to make much sense
It just has to be this strong
cause when youre in my arms I understand
We dont try to have a voice
When our hearts make the choices
Theres no plan
Its in our hands
Love doesnt ask why
It speaks from the heart
And never explains
Dont you know that
Love doesnt think twice
It can come all at once
Or whisper from a distance
Now I can feel what youre afraid to say
If you give your soul to me
Will you give too much away
We cant let this moment pass us by
Cant question this chance
Or expect any answers
We can try
But love doesnt ask you why
(instrumental)
So lets take what we found
And wrap it around us
Love doesnt ask why
It speaks from the heart
And never explains
Dont you know that
Love doesnt think twice
It can come all at once
Or whisper from a distance
Love doesnt ask why

Hes Got A Secret

(v. peterson)
Susanna
Oh, there he goes
Everybodys watching
Everybody knows
Somethings going on
It certainly shows
When hes got a secret for you
Its there when he walks
Its there when he smiles
He kisses your cheek
And disappears for a while
Nothing in the worlds
Gonna cramp his style
If only he could keep it from you
Oh, I dont believe that
You havent seen by now (seen by now)
Dont look at me
cause Ill never tell
Dont you ever wonder
Why the phone always rings (phone always rings)
Seven-thirty-one
Every evening (every evening)
Doesnt it upset you
When you call his name
And he doesnt pay attention to you.
Oh, I dont believe that
You havent seen by now (seen by now)
Dont look at me
cause Ill never tell
Dont know the places he goes
Dont know the people he knows
Dont you understand
Its out of your hands
Oh i, dont believe that
You havent seen by now (seen by now)
Dont look at me
cause Ill never tell

Extension 33

Living at the y, extension 33,
Nothing to care or to worry.
Once I was in love with a blind man,
But my auntie told me, dont do it, its not worth it.
Living at the y, 33 years,
No one to call or to write to.
Once I was in love with a married man,
But my instincts told me, dont tell him, itll kill you.
Im sad I didnt marry the blind man,
But whats a life with three blind children?
Im glad I never told the married man,
It saved my pride and freedom.
Living at the y, in 33 rooms,
Nowhere to visit or write to.
Once I was in love, it nearly killed me,
But now I have my pride and freedom.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom,
Freedom, freedom, freedom and pride.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom,
Freedom, freedom, freedom and pride.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom,
Freedom, freedom, freedom and pride.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom,
Freedom, freedom, freedom and pride.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom,
Freedom, freedom, freedom and pride.
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom,
Freedom, freedom, freedom.

You And Me(song)

i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you

the thought of being with you makes me happy
your voice makes me tingle all inside
your name gives me this feeling i cant explain
i love you and those are the only words that explain how i feel about you

i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you

you and me thats how were ment to be
you and me thats all we'll ever be
both of us together as one forever

i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you
you give me feelings i cant explain
you make me feel like i never felt befor
i cant seem to get you out of my head

i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you

i dont care, i dont care
all i care about is you

Happy The Man

Released as a single, 1972. produced by genesis/john anthony.
Happy the man - he lives a simple life
He doesnt have much - it doesnt worry him
Where you go - where?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, nowhere
Like a nun with a gun - Im wonderful fun
Laughing all through - just watching you
Seems a very stupid game...
But I dont care
Happy the man - he doesnt buzz around
Nothing he wants - any more than anything
Where you go - where?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, nowhere
Like a fool in the pool - Im incredibly cool
With a grin on my chin - Im certain to win
Someone says hes jesus christ - but I dont care
He is a good man...

Get It

Youve got to get it mm mm
Youve got to get it dont forget
It doesnt come around again
Youve got to get it mm mm
Youve got to get it and youve got to get it good
Once I had a little spanish guitar
The neighbours told me I could go pretty far
Well I came and I went
And my guitar got bent
But I discovered that the people who love
Are what we need if were to get up above it all
And thats that
Unless the world is flat
I wanna get it mm mm
I wanna get it just in case
It doesnt come around again
I wanna get it mm mm
I wanna get it and I wanna get it good
Pardon me if Ive been misunderstood
I wanna get it while the going is good
The telephone rang
About a song I sang
The life of cadillac and ultra for sure
Is automatic for the lady demure
She came and she went
Without a single dent
Come on, lets get it mm mm
Come on, lets get it dont forget
It doesnt come around again
Youve got to get it mm mm
Youve got to get it and youve got to get it good
Come on, lets get it mm mm
Come on, lets get it dont forget
It doesnt come around again
Youve got to get it mm mm
Youve got to get it and youve got to get it good

Horseshoe Man

In the land of the broken hearted
People lookin for the horseshoe man
Theyve been picking up little pieces
Theyve been puttin em all in his hand
And the way the story started
Two lovers long ago
Took a vow to live with heart break
Took a chance but how could they know love?
How could they know love?
Love, how could they know love
Horseshoe mans been working his magic
Fixin heart break everywhere
Hes the one we all can count on
When were lost and dont know where love is
He takes the pieces in his hand
And shakes em up like he doesnt care
He says there will always be heart break
Because love is everywhere
Love, I dont know about love
Love, I dont know
Love dont care if youre wrong or right
Love dont know if youre black or white
Love aint lookin for perfection
Loves the answer
Loves the question
Love, I dont know about love
Love, I dont know
Love, I dont know about love
Love, I dont know about love

Freedom (When It Speaks!)

freedom doesnt come in black or white,
doesnt always speak English,
doesnt like being lied to,
used, or bartered with....

is not a commodity on the highest shelf,
out of the reach of most....
is not concerned with owning,
and will not be owned....

freedom doesnt have any one religion,
is not capitalist, or communist!
freedom is often quiet, but when it speaks,
the whole world has to listen!

Whip Or Chain

Dont wanna hear your voice
Dont really know if I have a choice
Dont wanna be the one that makes you forget
Youre choking on the (brain/grain ? ) ( * 2)
Youre choking again
Dont think we ever met
Dont think you offered up a godgiven name
Who did the talking, man the whip on the chain?
Youve got pleasure from the seconds of pain
But then they get you with the burden of shame
The true measure if the one that remains
Dont wanna .. dont wanna ..
Dont wanna be your pain
Dont wanna be your pain baby
Dont wanna be your pain
Dont wanna be your pain baby
Dont wanna be your pain
(very fast wailing sample:
I live in a concrete cell,
No soul is dead until we create a ? mind
She ? the exact time
She ?
And take the young boys lip
She loves to see him crawl up the chamber wall
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
And with the eyes you covered
Like a ? ? hovered
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
And when they scream no more
She doesnt care for one more (* 3) )
Wont let you kill me just yet
Dont even care if theres a price on my head
Dont wanna wind up in a blood ? ?
Dont wanna be your ..
Dont wanna be your chain
Dont wanna be your chain baby
Dont wanna be your chain
I said, I dont ...dont... I dont wanna be you chain (* 2)

I Dont Fall In Love So Easy

(written by rodney crowell)
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know how it feels
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know if its real
Too strong dont mean its for long
Too deep dont mean its for keeps
Fast doesnt last
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I dont give my heart to just anyone
I dont even know how to do it
I dont give my hand to just any man
I dont wanna put myself through it
I dont want what I dont want
I cant feel what I dont feel
Its sad but its true
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I used to pray someday to change
But I found new ways to stay the same
Until you came
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know where to start
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont understand my own heart
Its so hard to drop my guard
I dont know how to just let go
But what else can I do
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
Im fallin in love with you
Yes, Im fallin in love with you

It Doesnt Matter Anymore

(daryl hall/sandy allen)
Ive been used to seeing the world with the eyes of two
Now youre gone, no more window shopping with you
Guess Ill spend another day walking around
But dont think that Im sorry babe, dont you think that Im down
cause you know it doesnt matter, you know it doesnt matter anymore
And thats what Im here to tell you
You know it doesnt matter, yes it doesnt matter anymore
Ive been used, you might say that Ive been misused
But Im not gonna feel bad for myself even though Ive been bruised, so bruised
Guess Ill spend another day walking around
But dont think that Im sorry babe, dont you think that Im down
cause you know it doesnt matter, you know it doesnt matter anymore
And thats what Im here to tell you
You know it doesnt matter, yes it doesnt matter anymore

Dont Cry Freedom

How long before we see we have broken those chains,
.(? )...just like the bird that sings it in the dream baby we are born free,
Oh now, I want you to know now we are in charge of our own destiny,
Freedom is only but a state of mind, youve got to leave them shackles behind.
Dont you cry freedom, exercise your freedom,
Dont cry freedom, exercise your freedom,
Dont cry freedom, its a state of mind,
Oh..ooooh..cry..dont cry, dont cry...well well, well.
Freedom is only but a state of mind, youve got to leave them shackles behind.
Yeah, yeah,
Some of us get to dance on a dream,
Every day we pray to that which we cannot see,
Why is it so, so difficult to love that which we see?
Love for you and me.
Tell me now, do you like what you see?
Are those images forced upon us, reflections of you and me,
Dont you let them play upon your mind, youve got to leave them shackles behind.
.(? ).i want you to know that, we are each other our own destiny,
Just like the bird that sings within the dreams, baby you are born free,
Oh yeah, every night oh now,
Dont you cry freedom, freedom, dont cry, dont cry oh now, freedom,
Dont you cry freedom, exercise your freedom its a state of.., dont cry freedom,
Just like the bird that sings within the dream baby you are born free.

Zeroes

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Youve arrived in the land of a thousand different names
And the fabulous sons have crashed their planes in flames
Now tomorrow is back claiming redemption is on your heels
And a toothless past is asking you how it feels
And me my little red corvette has driven by
Fair weather heart has fallen in
My rainy day girl is feeling down
And she tells me that the world is spinning round
I say the dream was all for you
Youre nobody else
Tonight the zeroes were singing for you
Yeah
Hi, can I walk you home again today
Gotta get forgive and forget hey-hey
Something good is happening and I dont know what it is
Dont you know were back on trial again today
And its breaking wine for you
Hell its only cause youre true
Someone outtimed my heart
Stopping and preaching and letting love in
You are my moon, you are my sun
Heaven knows what you are
Tonight the zeroes are singing for you
Yes they were
Tonight the zeroes were singing for you
You
Tonight the zeroes were singing for you
You
Doesnt matter what you try to do
Doesnt matter what you try to do
Doesnt matter where you try to go
Doesnt matter who we really are
Doesnt matter
Doesnt matter
Doesnt matter
Doesnt matter

What About Me

You think that my hearts an open door
You can walk right into it and have a seat
Whenever you need it
Somehow it seems youve thrown away the keys
So I cant lock the, door when you come back for more
Every day and every night
What about me
I really love you baby cant you see
What about me
I will always care
What about me
I understand that you want to be free
What about me
In moments of despair I will always care for you
Maybe I am phoney if I say
That I cry sometimes when I think you forget me
And I know you do
Could be its important to be free
But when freedom starts to hurt dont you think
Its time to think of me
Whenever I say
What about me...
Dont you think its time to think of me
Dont you think its time to give me all I need
Delivering your soul could set us free
Be honest if you want to talk bout love to me
