When Astray
A total warrior closes his sword when astray,
Offered by him is the law of the cured, when astray.
Destiny has its roots in madness of a solution,
Off the wall a man jumps to self-award, when astray.
Heads of government lie everyday to their comrades,
Then fetching taxes is the priority with the Board when astray.
Some combat achieved combats, more than a sport,
To swear to the utter ruin of elders to be adored when astray.
A section of the clause inside a commandment
Shows us the way to the ones who have explored when astray.
The wars are attempted by one man mostly,
My heavenly war is slightly deplored when astray.

Crazy Lowdown Ways
Well i got a problem
and it just won't wait
I've been getting on one
With the man who guards your gate
When he says you're sleeping
In your hideaway
It is what he's keeping back
That gives your game away
Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray
And i'd like to say
That i like this
More than i do today
Yes i' got a problem
like you've never seen
I've been getting bothered
By the man who locks your screen
When he says you're hiding
And in your room you'll stay
It is what he's holding back
That says what he can't say
Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray
And i'd like to say
That i like this
More than i do today
I'm just a lazy man
Who has to hear the truth
And i hear what's true from you
Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray
And i'd like to say
That i like this
More than i do today

Astray
and times move so fast, and now there does not seem to be any
and once it felt that there was more than plenty
I do believe that something somewhere sent me
To you, astray, and the bald raging flame of your heart is making me stay.
and I admit, that I have spent some time in confusion
Not knowing what is or is not illusion
Riddled with myself and destruction
Astray, and the bald raging flame of your heart is making me stay.
and flux, we move, crawl across the sky like the weather
To think that she once thought that I was clever
But I was do or die not now or never
Astray, still the bald raging flame of your heart is making me stay.

Time Out
Hello fighters time out!
Time to take some rest
Time to take a test
Much a do do over
A high stereo low hysteria
History hystrionic merri-go-mad
A psycho path qu’est que c’est
Ein stain of agony in atom bloom
Cries over its own discovery
Mourns its own invention
Hair astray freedom no recovery
A hell paved in with a good intention
A Nike’s victory at dead end sitting
Chair astray duck electric powered
Freedom aside prison devoured
A branch astray progress knitting
Charlie darling take a deep look at
A root cut bottom of a day
We’ll repent schism of all the –isms
Bruised by sharp ends of prisms
Diamonds brushed for our joy
Funny they end up a psycho toy
Hystrion mimed a day
Hystrions mimed astray
Looney tuney clone
Fool’s paradise throne
Forgive us Father, forgive
For we never really knew
What exactly we were doing
For we haven’t got a clue
On scales of knowledge ruined

When I get images of earlier heroes
When I get images of earlier heroes
who armoured and armed to the teeth
tried to keep to their duty
but were led astray by licentious women
who loosened their skirts,
were led astray while cupid’s
were roaring with laughter
it lets me think about you and me
and it reminds me strongly
and I wonder who now sheathes his lance
in to your sheathe
(or are their knights now standing in a row)
and I am broken by destiny
that takes me to other places
and their are others now fighting my struggle,
are riding the flame of your passion
and everything is broken between us
and maybe a nymph will have charity on me.

Reminded!
Reminded!
For, a workman does not need to be ashamed;
But, your youthful lusts are leading you astray in this life!
Because, there are many imposters around you.
Bat, batter!
Between the rivers,
With language and culture;
Through the rain,
But, your youthful lusts are leading you astray in this life.

Bartender's Blues (feat. George Jones)
=============================================================================
DUET WITH GEORGE JONES
I'm just a bartender
And I don't like my work
But I don't mind the money at all
I see lots of sad faces
And lots of bad cases of
Folks with their backs to the wall
But I need four walls around me
To hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky-tonk angel
To hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
I can light up your smokes
I can laugh at your jokes
I can watch you fall down on your knees
I can close down this bar
I can gas up my car
I can pack up and mail in the key
But I need four walls around me
To hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky-tonk angel
To hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away
Now the smoke fills the air
In this honky-tonk bar
And I'm thinking 'bout
Where I'd rather be
But I burned all my bridges
I sank all my ships and
I'm stranded at the edge of the sea
But I need four walls around me
To hold my life
To keep me from going astray
And a honky-tonk angel
To hold me tight
To keep me from slipping away

Women Are Smarter
Let us put men and women together
See which one is smarter
Some say men, but I say no
Women run the men like a puppet show
It ain't me
It's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
But I say, it's the women today
Smarter than the man in every way
Chorus:
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
The women are smarter
That's right
Little boy sit on the corner and cry
Big man come and he asked him why
He said, "I can't do what the big boys do"
The man sat down and he cried too
It ain't me
It's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
But I say, it's the women today
Smarter than the man in every way
Chorus:
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
The women are smarter
That's right, that's right
Ever since the world began
Women been banned from the ways of man
Listen boy cuz I've got a plan
Give it up, don't try and understand
It ain't me
It's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
But I say, it's the women today
Smarter than the man in every way
Chorus:
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
The women are smarter
That's right
Let us put men and women together
See which one is smarter
Some say men, but I say no
Women run the men like a puppet show
It ain't me
It's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
But I say, it's the women today
Smarter than the man in every way
Chorus:
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
That's right
The women are smarter
The women are smarter
That's right, that's right
Repeat chorus and fade out

Man Smart - Woman Smarter
Let us put men and women together, see which one is smarter,
Some say men, but I say no, women got the men like a puppet show.
It ain't me it's the people that say, men are leading women astray,
I say, it's the women today, smarter than the men in every way,
That's right the women are smarter, the women are smarted that's right.
Little boy sitting in the corner and cry, big man come and ask him why,
He said "I can't do what the big boys do", the man sat down and he cried too.
It ain't me it's the people that say, men are leading women astray,
I say, it's the women today, smarter than the men in every way.
That's right the women are smarter, the women are smarted that's right
Ever since the world began women been imitating the ways of men,
But listen cause I've got a plan, give it up just don't try to understand.
It ain't me it's the people that say, men are leading women astray,
I say, it's the women today, smarter than the men in every way.
That's right the women are smarter, the women are smarted that's right

Love Has Cast Astray
Shadows cross my windowsill,
at the close of day.
Raindrops like teardrops,
I have cried since you went away.
People pass me by,
hurry on their way,
they all overlook this fool,
that love has cast astray.
Morning with the early birdsong,
greets my waking eyes.
Engines with batteries flat,
strain to come alive.
Everything is waking,
for another day,
and I remain the fool,
love has cast astray.

Cherish The Day
you're ruling the way that i move
and i breathe your air
you only can rescue me
this is my prayer
if you were mine
if you were mine
i wouldn't want to go to heaven
i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
you won't catch me running
you're ruling the way that i move
you take my air
you show me how deep love can be
you're ruling the way that i move
and i breathe your air
you only can rescue me
this is my prayer
i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
you won't catch me running
i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
won't run away
you show me how deep love can be
you show me how deep love can be
this is my prayer
i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
won't run away
won't shy
i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i cherish the day
i cherish the day
i cherish the day
i cherish the day

Soldier's Heart
All hope was gone
Hard to hang on
Hard to be strong
Was blind, could not see
Nothing but walls in front of me and inside no peace
And the mountains seemed impossible to climb until...
[Chorus]
You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
We didn't go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart
Oceans so deep
Uphill so steep
But still we believe
And when the road was too far to travel
Heros you cared you came and carried us there
And the mountains seemed impossible to climb until...
[Chorus]
You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
We didn't go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart
And so our flag was still there
All because you decided to care
[Chorus x2]
You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
We didn't go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart
You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
You could have let us go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart
And that takes a soldier's heart

The Old Girl Was Hiding
The old girl I remember
Came back today
The new girl I’ve encountered
At least for now, has gone away
Then I prayed, at least for now
That it would stay that way
But once I prayed
The world went astray
My life turned upside down
Now I remember her, once around
About a week
The old girl I remember
Showed her face today
The new girl I’ve encountered
Vanished without a trace today
Then I prayed, at least for a while
That it would stay that way
But once I prayed
The world went astray
My life turned upside down
Now I remember her, once around
About a month
But once I prayed again
The world went astray
My life turned upside down
Now I remember her, once around
About a year
Sweet One
My sweet one
My sad-eyed little lover
My sweet one
I swear there are no others
But you, but you, but you, but you, but you
Baby
At night-time
Only sometime
I get kind of lonely
And this old roaming heart of mine
It starts searching on its own, and
I swear my love is true
And I give it all to you
Baby
Well those sweet sad eyes
Dont you know they call me back
Everytime
I try to go astray
And the image of you
Dont you know it always lingers on my mind
Every minute of the day
My sweet one
My sad-eyed little lover
My sweet one
I swear there are no others
But you, but you, but you, but you, but you
Baby
Well those sweet sad eyes
Dont you know they call me back
Everytime
I try to go astray
And the image of you
Dont you know it always lingers on my mind
Every minute of the day
My sweet one
My sad-eyed little lover
My sweet one
I swear there are no others
But you, but you, but you, but you, but you
Baby
