Know Where to Get It
I am told I am 'nothing'!
I agree with those who say this,
With the hopes of what I leave behind...
Is something to keep me remembered,
And tasted from time to time!
Even I may have cravings for a banana split...
But not everyday!
As long as I know where to get it,
Is all that matters!

I'm leaving Iraq today!

Love Has Remembered Me
Written by: myles goodwyn
Love wont remember me
Its been so long
And thats what Ive told myself
But you proved me wrong
You opened up my eyes
And helped me to see
That love has a way of finding
Those in need
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
It seems too long since weve been together
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
Its been so long, seemingly forever
Love has remembered, love has remembered me
I felt so all alone
And at times afraid
That love had foresaken me
It just seemed that way
Then you walked into my life
And you turned my whole world around
Ours is a true love
It cant be found
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
It seems too long since weve been together
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
Its been so long, seemingly forever
Love has remembered, love has remembered me
Love wont remember me
Its been so long
And thats what Ive told myself
But you proved me wrong
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
It seems too long since weve been together
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
Its been so long, seemingly forever
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
It seems too long since weve been together
Love has remembered me (love has remembered)
Its been so long, seemingly forever
Love has remembered
Love has remembered
Love has remembered
(love has remembered)

To feel good…
To know and be known
Is ego’s cravings.
To tempt men and forbid
Is woman’s cravings.
To pursue women
Is man’s high cravings.
To receive and respond
Is senses’ cravings.
To hope and imagine
Is mind’s cravings.
To pity and love
Is heart’s cravings.
Cravings must find their food
For humans to feel good.

Nothing Even Matters
Now the skies could fall
Not even if my boss should call
The world it seems so very small
'Cause nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters at all
See I don't need no alcohol
Your love makes me feel ten feet tall
Without it I'd go through withdrawal
'Cause nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters at all
These buildings could drift out to sea
Some natural catastrophe
Still there's no place I'd rather be
'Cause nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters to me
You're part of my identity
I sometimes have the tendency
To look at you religiously
'Cause nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters to me
Now you won't find me at no store
I have no time for manicures
With you it's never either or
'Cause nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters no more
Now my team could score
And make it to the Final Four
Just repossess my 4x4
'Cause nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters no more

Thats Not Me
I had to prove that I could make it alone
But thats not me
I wanted to show how independent Id grown now
But thats not me
I could try to be big in the eyes of the world
What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl
Im a little bit scared
Cause I havent been home in a long time
You needed my love
And I know that I left at the wrong time
My folks when I wrote them
Told em what I was up to said thats not me
I went through all kinds of changes
Took a look at myself and said thats not me
I miss my pad and the places Ive known
And every night as I lay there alone I will dream
I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasnt so pretty
Im glad I went now Im that much more sure that were ready
I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasnt so pretty
I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasnt so pretty

Eat The Music
Split me open
With devotion
You put your hands in
And rip my heart out
Eat the music
Does he conceal
What he really feels?
Hes a woman at heart
And I love him for that
Lets split him open
Like a pomegranate
Insides out
All is revealed
Not only women bleed
Take the stone out
Of the mango
You put it in your mouth
And pull a plum out
Take a papaya
You like a guava?
Grab a banana
And a sultana
Rip them to pieces
With sticky fingers
Split the banana
Crush the sultana
Split em open
With devotion
You put your hands in
And rip their hearts out
Like a pomegranate
Insides out
Hes a woman at heart
And love him for that
Take a papaya
You like a guavva?
Grab a banana
And a sultana
Rip em to pieces
With sticky fingers
Split the banana
Crush the sultana
All emotion
And with devotion
You put your hands in
What ya thinking?
What am I singing?
A song of seeds
The food of love
Eat the music

The Bed
the bed is all that matters now
it has become the central solution
to all the problems of the house
I agree with Freud after all he made sense
for all those troubling years of his lifetime
that to all these marital misunderstandings
the bed has always been the solution
why do wives leave their husbands?
simply because of the unused bed
where time has been spent mostly for sleeping
now, i have felt what father used to confide
that the bed, yes the bed, is always the solution
even when both of them are nearing their 60s
and father did all the bed grooming
at my age now i must agree
i must say i completely agree
we always do it on the bed and the problem is solved.
yes, we do the serious talking there.

Last Time
Well I told you once and I told you twiceight.
But ya never listen to my advice goin right.
You dont try very hard to please me
With what you know it should be easy
Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I dont know. oh no. oh no.
Well, Im sorry girl but I cant stay
Feelin like I do today
Its too much pain and too much sorrow
Guess Ill feel the same tomorrow
Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I dont know. oh no. oh no.
Well I told you once and I told you twice
That someone will have to pay the price
But heres a chance to change your mind
Cuz Ill be gone a long, long time
Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I dont know. oh no. oh no.
Well, this could be the last time

Everyday Now
I just woke up and I can see it now
Its never been this close before
Tried to tell myself I didnt care
Crying out why am I here
Theres no point in me hiding
And only now I can see
Everyday now
Everyday now
The blames gonna fall on me
Something deep inside said move away
Try to leave whats good behind
And I still ask myself
Why I let it go
All these years were wasted time
Theres no point in me hiding
And only now I can see
Everyday now
Everyday now
The blames gonna fall on me
Everyday now
Everyday now
The blames gonna fall on me
Cause I never told you
That I could never live without it
Now the blames on me

The blames gonna fall on me

The blames gonna fall on me

The blames gonna fall on me

Disaster In A Halo
Lately I've been thinking about what you said
Time is growing old and I'm getting colder
Hunger's just a pain that won't be fed
I'll be working for the ghost until I'm dead and done
Over and done, over
Disaster in a halo
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Somewhere there's a girl with thoughts of him
She makes wishes in a well then fears them caving in on her, around, on her
Disaster in a halo
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Cause in the well plans will come and plans will go undone
I know, I know
And you can't tell, I will come and I will do I know, I know
But why would I?
But why would I?
Disaster in a halo
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters

As Long As It Matters
(phillip rhodes, jesse valenzuela, robin wilson)
How can I find something
That two can take
Without stumbling as we
Walk into our futures wake
Im like a broken record
That you can play
Repeating as if it matters
Everything I want to say
Ill be all right
As long as it matters
As long as youre here with me now
Forget that time
Its nothing we touch and see
All this is fine
Even as it crashes down on me
Im looking around
Theres nothing that I could want
More than to tell you
Theres no more than weve already got
Ill be all right
As long as it matters
As long as youre here with me now...
Forget that our time is almost up Ill be all right...

Oh! So Now It Matters?
Perceptions change dramatically,
When assumptions done...
Are discovered to be,
Painful realities some could not believe.
Until...
That shoe worn by another,
Has found an opportunity...
To be 'squeezed' on someone else foot.
Delivering an immediate experience,
To be remembered for a very long time.
'Ouch!
How on Earth,
Could you have worn this for so long? '
Oh!
So now it matters?
You wait until you put the other one on.
And keep in mind how easy...
You told others I had it.
Since the day I was born!
As you have stated.
'Why are you being so sarcastic? '
SARCASTIC?
You will soon learn what the facts are.
And let me know how comforting it is...
To stay in 'your' place.

One banana, two banana
Three banana, four
Four bananas make a bunch
And so do many more
Over hill and highway
The banana buggies go
Comin' on to bring you
The Banana Splits Show
Makin' up a mess of fun
Makin' up a mess of fun
Lots of fun for everyone

Four banana, three banana
Two banana, one
All bananas playing in the bright warm sun
Flippin' like a pancake, poppin' like a cork
Fleagle, Bingo, Drooper an' Snork
Makin' up a mess of fun
Makin' up a mess of fun
Lots of fun for everyone

One banana, three
Swingin' like a bunch of monkeys
Hangin' from a tree
Hey there everybody
Won't you come along and see
How much like banana splits
Everyone can be
Makin' up a mess of fun
Makin' up a mess of fun
Lots of fun for everyone

Split Seconds
SPLIT SECONDS
Open your eyes
Take a look around you
You light me up
Like I'm some kind of saint
If black and white
were the only colours
if you and I
were the only ones
Trying to buy some time
I'd try to buy split seconds
Trying to buy some time
I'd try to buy split seconds
I open my eyes
and fear it 's not the last time
You set me up
like I'm some kind of fool
Trying to buy some time
I try to buy split seconds
Trying to buy some time
I try to buy
the scars to prove that
we're not the only ones
the scars to prove that
I am
that I am
Trying to buy some time
I try to buy split seconds
Trying to buy some time
I try to buy split seconds
Trying to buy some time
I try to buy split seconds
Trying to buy
Trying to buy

Buddys Song
Written by ella holly.
Blue blue days, and long black nights
Lonesome tears youre gonna cry for me
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
Think it over before you leave
I got the love - that kind you need
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
Ill rave on with the things you say
You say youre gonna leave but thatll be the day
Maybe baby, you dont know
I left peggy sue, a long time ago
Shes the girl on my mind
Everyday through all the time
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
Solo
Ill rave on with those things you say
You say youre gonna leave but thatll be the day
Maybe baby, you dont know
I left peggy sue, a long time ago
Shes the girl on my mind
Everyday through all the time
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave

Everyday
Everyday...
There is some teasing temptation,
That comes along.
Something craved...
To test how strong,
The urge.
To unnerve any courage,
One believes is in reserve.
Everyday...
It becomes harder,
Just to stay away.
To stray from what is right...
Develops into a struggle,
That seems to delight an inner battle!
And the wrong thing provokes,
To please a 'demon' that jokes.
We trust something valued,
Comes to thrust us to wake up!
Before we take a bite...
To satisfy an increasing appetite!
We try to keep it hidden...
But then,
Everyday...
We try to leave whatever it is untouched.
Something inside of us,
Says it 'wants' very much!
We nibble until it is devoured.
And helplessly we sit...
Regretting every moment,
We allowed ourselves to be licked...
By 'it'!
And everyday that passes.
We try to get over it!
And we do...
To say,
'Never again! '
Until...
We are faced,
With that day...
It becomes easier to pray away,
Those cravings that come we taste.
And enjoy,
Everyday!
To ease away any annoyance,
That has been determined...
Came to be done!
Leaving us with a guilt,
We slowly let subdue us...
But not to completely overcome.

Time For Everything
we all have the time for everything…
a time to play and a time to sleep
a time to move and a time to be stiff
a time to cry and a time to laugh
a time to be weak and a time to be tough.
a time to doubt and a time to trust
a time to agree and a time to contrast
a time to be slow and a time to be fast
a time to fade and a time to last.
having twenty four hours a day, we have…
a time to be good and a time to be bad
a time to be mad and a time to be glad
a time to be silent and a time to be loud
a time to be down and a time to be proud
a time to be smart and a time to be dumb
a time to be hurt and a time to be loved
a time to be honest and a time to lie
a time to live and of course a time to die.

Before....
We didnt grow up together
But went to 9th grade together
Didn't know eachother
But now where best friends with eachother
You split at 10th grade
Moved to waterbury
Left me in a mess
But of course we worked it out
Went and saw eachother at times
I would call you everyday
You where family to me
We've almost been threw it all
Now it looks like we will go through it all
You told me you where leaving again
But this time it's different
This time it's different
Your going away for good
Not no twenty minute drive
Baltimore, is what you said
I didn't know what to think
But how is the person I care most about is leaving
I dont trust alot
But with you
You held my world in your hands
I would give you everything and more
You just dont know
But now I'll sit and pray
Pray that you dont go
I wouldn't know what to do
But there's no one who could replace your shoes
Nobody will take that trust I have with you
Nobody would understand the way you are
Nobody could give me the advice you told me
PLEASE I'm begging dont leave me
I've already lost too many
I dont want to make you another
I guess now it's all in your hands
You decide now...
Whats it going to be? ?

Sunday Life
Ironing
Bottles
Sewing
Shopping.
Feed ing
Cleaning
Floors for mopping.
Mundane chores
Of everyday life
No time to rest;
Though its Sunday night
But from these tasks
I won’t be baulking,
As while I work
To you I’m talking.
Discussing the points in a slice of toast.
The relative merits of watching “Coast”.
It matters not, for what matters to me
Is the sharing time with you; you see?
