Inside Us
Inside the flesh are parasites,
Fully blessed for their bites.
One invents the pleasure for the life,
But bugs do not become your wife.
Instead, the existence loves me more
If I contract my muscles and then adore.
This adoration benefits, masters my store
Of facts and my store of knowledge to explore.

Bargain Store
My life is likened to a bargain store and I may have just what you're looking for
If you don't mind the fact that all the marchandise is used
With a little mending it could be as good as new
Why you take for instance this old broken heart
If you will just replace the missing part
You would be surprised to find how good it really is
Take it and you never wil be sorry that you did
The bargain store is open come inside you can easily afford the price
Love is all you need to purchase all the marchandise
And I can guarantee you'll be completely satisfied
[ guitar ]
Take these old used mem'ries from the past
And these broken dreams and plans that didn't last
I'll trade them for the future I can't use them anymore
I've wasted love but I still have some more
The bargain store is open...
My life is likened to a bargain store...
The bargain store is open come inside the bargain store is open come inside

Giving
By generously giving
Than selfishly saving
We become channels of blessings
To souls, seriously, sobbing
Craving for care and curing
Be a blessing
Give generously
Giving bestows bountiful bonuses
Boons from the Great God
For giving Saintly, suggests sacrifice
Presenting, represent planting
And as advanced by the law of harvest
Offering, as a seed
Basically bear a humbling harvest
Several sizes of sown seed
Thus the giver by not keeping
Benefits at an abnormal rate
From the only inexhaustible store
That store well-lit by the stars
The store waiting on cheerful givers
Be a Blessing
Give generously.
And be Blessed.

No Time
Future is to be shaped with anticipation
For building up of good relation
We are not sure of what is in store
But still search every possibility to explore
No reason for unstoppable progress
Even if with limited access
Non stop use of life but it can stop any time
With no slight hint or notice sometimes
Never think of reasons and get involved
As universe is meant to be revolved
It has bearing on your life
When blessed with very good wife
Love to live
And believe
What keep you alive?
When earnestly you strive?
It may go on
Until you are worn out
Life may need no approach
No time will be left as such

What's The World Got In Store
Close your eyes and go to sleep, baby
Take your head off your feet, honey
Cause you've been working hard and I know you're tired
You been tryin' hard not to think I'm a liar
What's the world got in store
What's the world got in store for you
What's the world got in store for you now
Come on baby somehow, I need you
Do I have to show you how, baby
I'm not trying to knock you out, or was it about
I just now you need your rest I can't say what's best for you
You been workin' hard and I know you're tired
I've been tryin' hard not to feel like a liar
What's the world got in store
What's the world got in store for you
What's the world got in store for you now
What's the world got in store
What's the world got in store for you
What's the world got in store for you now

My life is like unto a bargain store
And I may have just what youre lookin for
If you dont mind the fact that all the merchandise is used

(Not Beyond) Alone
Decide to be free of these previous eons,
Never really so sure why you now always just ignore,
Just trying to stop myself from feeling all the clashes,
Not really sure why I'm left feeling anything but bold,
Jest as you like to leave me without any gold,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
As for now I'll be remembering back then
For I know I'm so unsure what you say is my role,
As you confuse and leave me without a single clue,
And gotta now learn how I can finally become so strong,
Gotta ignore the fact that your heart is ever so cold,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
For there's something that I cannot yet, yet say
For there's something that I cannot yet say,
But even now I'm not beyond alone,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
Not beyond alone,
Not beyond alone,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
Just not beyond alone.

4. Grow Well
The knowledge tree will need to grow
While we still have the need to know
Its roots secure to help it growing
Food it seeks our need for knowing
Thick stout trunk a brain or store
With many wonders to explore
Branches go at every angle
Many problems to untangle
A tree as this of many years
Survives by feeding from our tears
Sometimes joy at knowledge found
They fall like raindrops on the ground
Remember in the world out there
Try to learn and be aware
And if you’re able, go to college
To fertilize this tree of knowledge

False Smile
My heart is too small to store so many sorrows
It turns into sad songs when my heart overflows!
My eyes are too small to store so many tears
They fall down like monsoon rain I long for seers.
My life seems too short to make it worthwhile
I have to keep on my face a false smile.
I am so poor no one wants to be my wife
Oh my hopes are too few to lengthen my life.

In all of my life
In all of my life,
you are the most special person,
my companion, my playmate and my wife
and you remain the important one
even if at times in the living together there is strive,
when it feels as if everything beautiful is gone
and with you I know that I am truly alive
while through heartaches, differences, pain and joy we live on.
With you I want to challenge life, rise to every opportunity
and all that it has in store,
feel in your companionship that I am truly free
and with you I want to live forevermore.
With you in my life, nothing is as it was before
and you are the one that I truly adore.

Nature's Bounty
Her,
Store
In abundance
Overflows.
The doors
Of which
His eyes
Ignore.
The latch, the lock
And the bolt
Fastened
Fastened where the looted abundance
Rots in the store.
For, it rots
As environs
Foreign
Cannot restore.
She,
He knows
Has powers
To replenish Her store
Still
His desire
To honour Her no more.
Knows cannot restore
Adores his rotten store.

If I ever opened a trampoline store, I don't think I'd call it Trampo-Land, because you might think it was a store for tramps, which is not the impression we are trying to convey with our store. On the other hand, we would not prohibit tramps from browsing, or testing the trampolines, unless a tramp's gyrations seemed to be getting out of control.

Whats In Store For Me
I wanna know what is to be
To see what lifes cut out for me
Im waiting for my fate
cause I know Ive done wrong
I wanna know just whats in store for me
I wish I had a crystal ball
To see my rise and see my fall
Ive done a lot of right,
But also done some wrong
I wanna know just whats in store for me
And so Ill wait a while
And wait a little longer
Ill just have to wait and see
I think a lot but Ill stop trying
Ill just get old before my time
Ill live the life Ive got
But I dont sleep at night
I wanna know just whats in store for me
Ill live the life Ive got
But I dont sleep at night
I wanna know just whats in store for me
I wanna know just whats in store for me

Simple Way To Enjoy Guilt Free Gift of Beer and Pizza
Blessed be the workers laborers of the field
harvesters of the hops and barley
Blessed be the brewers bottlers truck drivers
distributors liquor store proprietors
Blessed be the hands that the kneaded the dough
the oven and pickers of the onions
the Sun the plump ripe fruit of the vine
pickers waters of the growing grain
the cow the cheese maker
Blessed be the sacrificed pig
Blessed be the driver
All hands and life responsible for delivering
the simple joy
of Beer and Pizza

Food for thought
The fields are bare, the harvest safe in store
Now is the time for man and beast to rest
King winter will enforce his frigid rule.
The fields are white, the harvest safe in store
In time the sun will shine and spring return
The earth will show renewed vitality
When sunshine puts an end to winters reign,
the frost retreats to let the spring return.
The farmers and the peasants know the score.
The city folk are merely parasites
who do not know nor want to know the score.
They are convinced they do not need to learn.
Confident that gold can buy anything,
this is not true. When famine strikes they’ll learn.

The Dollar Stores Feb 6th 2011
There’s some guy or girl out in China right now making stuff,
For me and you in the dollar store and it’s never enough,
Inside a plastic package that’s very hard to pull apart,
How did all this come about and when did it all start?
And they usually have enough cashiers so I can get out,
Not like some stores where a lack of cashiers put me in deep doubt,
But the dollar store passing multitudes, seem cheerful enough,
Although they have to sell one hell of a pile of dollar stuff.
I just hope the present national relationships persist,
And we don’t start behaving like the others don’t exist,
And the dollar stores remain where they are for a long long time,
Because at the dollar store, you can save a lot more than a dime

Storeroom
I love you, without caring whom you love.
My hands below the belt, or my hands above
in the arms of other men,
or in my bed again.
It's just a man,
Taking what he needs,
From the store room,
Store room, store room.
I love to see you sitting there upon your throne,
your preachers all around you
being bored, and your prophet straight and tall.
And yet they'll undermine it all.
Just a man, just a man,
taking what he needs,
from the store room,
store room, store room.
Yeah, Shakespeare said it all, then he said no more
and he left me feeling just like a two bit whore.
Well the silence broke my heart, but yes
I spread my legs apart.
It's just a man ...
?????
?????
The hermit in the Wild,
the parent in the child.
Just a man ...
Oh my love, let us unpin you,
???? you done, bringing more:
the mother and the father, the daughter and the son.
But should one refuse to come, it does not subtract the sum
It's just a man ...
It's not a (due?) of burning pounds that ruins your mind
like a spoon that you turn and you turn and you don't unwind,
Though these wars that you did not stop,
they don't tear your sleep apart.
It's just a man ...
???? that keeps you up,
What a (moon?) coming like a headlight through the window
Not the thumbnail of a screen, (?)
No best way to dream (?)
It's just a man ...
Now the woman by your side is she awake?
But there's nothing you want to give her,
and there's nothing that you really want to take.
You don't even try to prove that the noisy neighbor's making love. (?)
It's just a man ...
I love you without caring whom you love ...

All Dad's Fault!
Great grandchildren…
More that just a few
Grandchildren…
Got a lot of them too
Lot's of happy
Lot's of sad…
Lot's of goodness
And a bit of bad
A few deaths…
Lot's of life
Many fantasies
Just one wife
Many lives created
Most due to chance (or luck)
It all started on a warm summer evening
In the back of my dad's ol' pickup truck
The lightning bugs were glowin'
The hormones were flowin'
The attraction was growin'
And we were too young to be knowin'
Of the consequences of that summer night
And all the joy and heartbreak to be
Well…It was all my dad's fault…
This patchwork quilt of family
It all began
when I held out my hand
And he gave the pickup's
key to me
I think he knew all the while
What was goin' to be in store for me
Cause he had a bittersweet smile
As he handed me that key

The Lord Has A Will
I need you lord; in all I do.
Youre always there to see me through.
I cant get by unless I lean on you, lord.
The lord has a will,
And I have a need
To follow that will,
To humbly be still,
To rest in it,
Nest in it,
Fully be blessed in it,
Following my fathers will.
Your love, lord, is in my heart.
You wrote it there; it wont depart.
It lights my way and keeps me out of the dark.
The lord has a will,
And I have a need
To follow that will,
To humbly be still,
To rest in it,
Nest in it,
Fully be blessed in it,
Following my fathers will.
I thank you, lord, your word is sown
Into my life, and there its grown;
Its roots go deep where living waters are known.
The lord has a will,
And I have a need
To follow that will,
To humbly be still,
To rest in it,
Nest in it,
Fully be blessed in it,
Following my fathers will.
The lord has a will,
And I have a need
To follow that will,
To humbly be still,
To rest in it,
Nest in it,
Fully be blessed in it,
Following my fathers will.
To rest in it,
Nest in it,
Fully be blessed in it,
Following my fathers will.
