Hush Little Baby (Part 1)
I said yes rather than no
I'll take this as a test, to prove
whether or not I am and if not
that I can be a man,
the man that he wasn't
or could ever be.
I won't make the same mistakes
I won't make selfish claims
no excuses will I gather,
to make a plea of insanity
just to ensure an escape route
Out of this reality
although I'm not ready, I will be.
Although I'm still one myself,
I will grow in time, a knight
in shining armor
Yes, a plant, of a surprised seed
I hope I'm ready

When Is it Ever Ready?
When is it ever ready...
For us to make up our minds,
It is time to get what we put off
To get something done?
When is it ever ready...
For us?
When is it ever ready...
To stop and wait.
For us to negotiate,
This is the moment...
That has arrived,
For us to get up and move?
Just to prove we can delay
Another day...
To make an excuse,
To collect with the other excuses...
Made!
When is it ever ready?
Time seems to never be!
It seems to do what it chooses without us!
To experience...
Or ignore completely.
As we sit to cuss its noncommitment.
Observing it as it cares less,
About how some of us waste it...
With more uselessness!
To eventually confess.
When is it ever ready?
That is probably not a concern...
Nor a priority,
Or on its agenda.
Time is man made.
To set limits...
As if man allows 'it' to benefit,
And exist.
To put up with a man's nonsense.
Or a woman's.
Either way...
No one can say,
They have more of it...
Than anyone.
To just let it sit!
And ask of it...
If and When it is ever ready!

But stop what\'chor doin\' honey... come over here

Now I\'m ready for you... I hope you ready for me
Look out...

Are You Ready?
Are you ready, are you ready?
Are you ready, are you ready?
Are you ready to meet jesus?
Are you where you ought to be?
Will he know you when he sees you
Or will he say, depart from me?
Are you ready, hope youre ready.
Am I ready, am I ready?
Am I ready, am I ready?
Am I ready to lay down my life for the brethren
And to take up my cross?
Have I surrendered to the will of god
Or am I still acting like the boss?
Am I ready, hope Im ready.
When destruction cometh swiftly
And theres no time to say a fare-thee-well,
Have you decided whether you want to be
In heaven or in hell?
Are you ready, are you ready?
Have you got some unfinished business?
Is there something holding you back?
Are you thinking for yourself
Or are you following the pack?
Are you ready, hope youre ready.
Are you ready?
Are you ready for the judgment?
Are you ready for that terrible swift sword?
Are you ready for armageddon?
Are you ready for the day of the lord?
Are you ready, I hope youre ready.

Protesting In The Nonsense Called Denial
Like it to accept or not,
But those sharing deceits...
Are people of equal mentalities.
To gather together to make claims of being neglected.
And those looking for physical differences,
To live one step above the other...
Forget,
On which common soil...
There is a placing of similar footsteps.
With the going through the same process.
To gather together to make claims of being neglected.
And to make accusations they do,
That are seen to be reflected and familiar...
Only upsets the ones refusing to see themselves.
And those who refuse to see themselves,
Are all over the place...
Protesting in the nonsense called denial.
And...
To gather together to make claims of being neglected.

Ready For You
Go on
Make me feel it's useless
When in fact it's you that need to have me near
So now
Keep me at safe distance
And with a little persistence I'll make it crystal clear
I'll be around
Only if you want me to
Be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid
Cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
Now you seem to be content with
A one sided friendship with you I've got to chase
Slow down so I can smell the roses
But the road you chose is crooked and unpaved
My tires are spinning but to no avail
That I'll be around
Only if you want me to
Be there by your side
I'm ready for you
Don't be afraid
Cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
That I'll be around
Only if you want me to
Be there by your side
I'm ready for you
I'll be around
Cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you

To take it to the street

Hey baby...hey baby...hey baby...hey baby

Under the sign of your love...zoo station

Get Ready
I never met a girl who made me feel the way that you do
(You're alright)
Whenever I'm asked who makes my dreams real, I tell 'em you do
(You're outta sight)
Well, fee, fi, fo, fum,
Look out baby, 'cause here I come
CHORUS
I'm bringing you a love that's true
So get ready, get ready
I'm gonna try to make you love me too
So get ready, get ready, here I come
(Get ready, 'cause here I come) I'm on my way
(Get ready, 'cause here I come)
If you wanna play hide and seek with love, let me remind you
(It's alright)
The lovin' you're gonna miss, and the time it takes to find you
(It's outta sight)
So fiddley dee, fiddley dum,
Look out baby, 'cause here I come
CHORUS
I'm bringing you a love that's true
So get ready, get ready
I'm gonna try to make you love me too
So get ready, get ready, here I come
Interlude (Gituar Tabs - Bb C 3x; Db C Bb; Main Riff 2x)
If all my friends should want you too, I'll understand it
(Be alright)
I hope I get to you before they do, the way I planned it
(Be outta sight)
So twiddley dee, twiddley dum,
Look out baby, 'cause here I come
CHORUS
I'm bringing you a love that's true
So get ready, get ready
I'm gonna try to make you love me too
So get ready, get ready, here I come
Get ready, 'cause here I come (6x)

I wanna be with you everyday
Cause Ive got a feeling that beginning to grow
And theres only one thing I can say

She left me a long note when she left me here
Told me that love was hard to find

Theres only one thing on my mind
Im ready - to love you
Im ready - to hold you

Here Is The Deal
Here is the deal.
I am not afraid to give.
Nor make foolish mistakes.
Sometimes done,
To immediately redo.
With no excuses made,
Like some choose to!
But absent are your offerings.
With whispers overheard.
With a quick exit in charade.
As if to escape.
Is that your purpose to prove,
You can scrutinize as you do.
Then leave when you're through?
Here is the deal.
I am not afraid to give.
Nor make foolish mistakes.
Sometimes done,
To immediately redo.
With no excuses made,
Like some choose to!

It Seems Like Youre Ready
Temperatures rising / and your bodies yearning for me / girl lay it on me / I place no one above thee / oh take me to the ecstasy / it seems like youre ready
It seems like youre ready
Seems like youre ready
Girl are you ready
To go all the way
All the way --- repeat
I can smell your perfume / step into my bedroom / let me love you constantly / oh your body is my playground / let me lick you up and down / make you feel like a woman should / it seems like youre ready
Chorus
Look in the mirror now come a little bit closer / dont be scared Im not gonna hurt you / I wanna do all the things you want me to do to you / baby I wanna make you feel real good
Chorus x 2
So are you ready / for my loving babe / I wanna make you feel so good / but theres one thing Id like to know / is do you want it babe / do you need it babe / Id like to know if Im the one that youre preparing for / tell me babe / am I the one you want / am I the one you need / I just gotta know right now / right now / cause it seems just like youre ready / just like youre ready baby / and I dont wanna make no mistakes at all / but it seems like youre ready / come here lady / hey there lady / Im willing / to bet my life that youre ready / and I promise Ill be good to you baby / you dont need to worry no

Are You Ready
Sweet apple pie
Standing in the street
Hands outta line
Looking for some meat
She take you high
When you feel her sting
She make you fly
And you know youre coming
Who all need it - who
Who all need it - you
Who all need it, who all need it
You all breathe it, we all need it
Are you ready for a good time
Then get ready for the night line
She making eyes
At everything she meet
Aint it a crime
When she make you pump heat
She make you fly
Because thats her thing
She make you dry
And you know youre broken in
Who all need it, who all need it
You all breathe it, we all need it
Are you ready for a good time
Then get ready for the night line

Keeping you here with me
Make him better, make theses tears go away
Keep him holding on, keep him here with me
Fight for him untill he can fight himself
I need him here for me
I'm not ready to loose him forever
Tubes, Wires Beeping Machines
Please work please work
To keep him here I'm not ready for a good bye
Don't fail everyone loves him not just me
I'm not ready to say good bye
I need more time I want him at graduation
I want him to live so much longer
Tubes, Wires Beeping Machines
I thought you were supposed to help
I thought you'de make him better
I'm now looking at his picture
I'm crying as people talk of this great man
I wasn't ready to say good bye
We barry him today you could have saved him
I'm not ready for this good bye

Two Face
Can't you see
The monster inside of me
A growling snarling beast
Eyes blood red
Mouth bursting with knives
Black fur standing on end
Claws fully extended ready to kill
Can't you see
The knight inside of me
A valiant champion ready to fight for his maiden
Blue eyes crystal clear
Shining armor ready to deflect rending claws
Silver sword drawn ready to kill
Can't you see
The battle inside of me
An epic clash of the titans
Shaking me to the very soul

Never Ready For a Maiming
I'm not a cough dropp popper,
To hide a tainted breath.
If my breath gets that bad,
I'll get myself arrested.
You may offer your suggestions,
If onions eatened overwhelm.
But we're not together kissing.
So dismiss what you smell.
You're not all that...
To get me to believing there's an interest.
You ask me why my shoes aren't spitshined.
And my tie not straight...
As if we're dating,
To become cell mates.
Don't aggitate me please,
I'm not ready for it!
If I felt the need to strip...
I'll walk around,
And be naked!
You don't know my name!
And we wont get that far.
So there's no reason to make claims...
You and I have made arrangements.
Don't aggitate me please,
I'm not ready for it!
If I felt the need to strip...
I'll walk around,
And be naked!
So there's no reason to make claims...
You and I have made arrangements.
Estranged I'll be from those 'arrangements'.
Don't wanna woe.
Don't try to sell me those arrangements.
No woe I owe.
Don't get me panicked.
Don't get me panicked.
Don't get me panicked,
By arrangements.
Don't wanna woe.
No maniac will trap me training.
No woe I owe.
To get me ready for a maiming!
Oh no!
I'm not that ready.
I'm not that ready.
I'm never ready for a maiming!

Game Ready Folks
Game ready folks,
Have a ridiculous response...
For every nonsensical mindless thing done,
They do.
As if strategically placed on paths to annoy,
For reasons to test...
Those taking their lives seriously.
If one listens to excuses that the elders make,
One no longer questions why the younger ones...
Disrespect and have no discipline.
Especially if an increase of immaturity,
Is shown to be expressed by those decades older...
Than elemenatry school aged children.
But a fool kept in practice never seems to wisen.
And the excuses used...
Prove,
One strapped with an enforced handicap...
Will always seek assistance from others,
To undermine another with their charm.
