Snore...me?

This morn she said again “You snore”
An accusation I now dare not ignore
To put an end to this ongoing fight
I’ll stay awake tonight, see if she’s right
To settle this vexing issue evermore!

Settle Down My Boy

Settle down, an eat your peas and gravy, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Stop wasting all your time with running around the town
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Knuckle down and find a job and take some responsibility
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
The futures something you should be thinking about
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Look around for a wife to start a family, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Listen toy our father and hell tell you the same as me
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Your words would go in one ear and out the other side
Dont say my head was empty and I had things to hide
And you better put something away for your old age
So settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down uh huh huh

Committed To Deliver

I can not settle to produce less,
Than my best.
And,
Not knowing what that is,
Yet...
I stay awake without rest.

I am committed to deliver,
As if I must pass a test.
And,
If I should fail to please,
Beyond what I believe is mere mediocrity...
I am the one without sleep that gets done.

I can not settle to produce less,
Than my best.
And,
Not knowing what that is,
Yet...
I stay awake without rest.

This Introduction of Truth

They can not stand it anymore...
The confrontation with reality.
It is much too big for them to ignore.
And many lay awake restless,
Without a bit of sleep...
Deep in an unconscious snore!

A valued lifestyle for them has ended.
A blocking of delusions,
From them has been suspended.
The 'rumors' of truth has affected their minds.
They wish to pursue a tranquil existence.
And leave the 'presentation'
Of this 'interpretation' of such a rawness...
Behind.

It is driving them out of their fantasized minds!
This introduction of truth...
They did not select or choose!

They can not stand it anymore...
The confrontation with reality.
It is much too big for them to ignore.
And many lay awake restless,
Without a bit of sleep...
Deep in an unconscious snore!

And afraid they are...
Of what comes next,
To knock on their doors.

So they peek to see...
Even in 'safe' neighborhoods,
They've lost their ability...
To secure a safety with stability.

It is driving them out of their fantasized minds!
And they wish for some relief...
That would enhance their fading beliefs.
But none comes and they become stunned!
And left to defend...
In a civil unrest for them that begins!

A Heart Will Break

Im better off without you
Im better off you know
Were nothing more than strangers
With nowhere else to go
But like a fool Ill stay by your side
Knowing that you wont believe me
When I say Ive tried
A heart will break tonight
Make no mistake Ill lie awake tonight
A heart will break and I wont feel the same
cos you stay just the same as you are
And a heart will break tonight
We made no commitment
We made only words
Its no consolation that were free like the birds
cos who needs to fly like they do
Theres only one reason Im staying
Its cos I love you...i do
A heart will break tonight
Make no mistake Ill lie awake tonight
A heart will break and I wont feel the same
cos you stay just the same as you are
And a heart will break tonight
A heart will break tonight
Make no mistake Ill lie awake tonight
A heart will break and I wont feel the same
cos you stay just the same as you are
And a heart will break tonight
Tonight its gonna break
Dont know if Ill make it
Thru the night...oh oh oh oh...

And Still You Sleep

'Tap Tap Tap',
Goes the pencil on my desk,
The book crashes to the floor,
And yet still you sleep,
Yet again I have failed,
This quest to keep you awake,
Softly you begin to snore,
And I laugh,
For this has happened before,
And is likely to happen again,
From across the room I make,
As much noise as I can,
Without calling attention to myself,
And still you sleep,
So for now I give in,
And let you sleep,
For though I have threatened,
That something will be thrown,
I can not bare to do so,
So I watch you sleep,
And wait until you awake,
So that I can warn you,
That you must stay awake again

What Now My Love?

What now my love?
Now that we’re older
When days rush by
And nights get colder

What now my love?
You’re so far away
We had a our shot
I chose not to stay

What now my love?
Is this our last chance,
Dare we rekindle love?
Revisit romance?

What now my love...

In Need

Every night I dream youre next to me
Tenderly
You say my name
You stay close enough to keep me here
Then disappear
When were face to face
And if you carry me tonight
I would be strong enough to fight
And when youre weak and cant go on
Id be the bed you lay upon
And blue is blue
And so am i
cause I want to be with you tonight
And youre not the only one in need
You know everybodys watching me
And what they see
Is me watching you
In the middle, time is creeping by
And I wonder why
Youre so removed
And if you carry me tonight
I would be strong enough to fight
And when youre weak and cant go on
Id be the bed you lay upon
And blue is blue
And so am i
cause I want to be with you tonight
And youre not the only one in need
Come on baby
Life is just a net into which you dive
And Im getting
Closer to you now
If I love you
Will you run away
And if I stay
Will I disappear
And if you carry me tonight
I would be strong enough to fight
And when youre weak and cant go on
Id be the bed you lay upon
And blue is blue
And so am i
cause I want to be with you tonight
And youre not the only one in need

To Settle The Issue

people settle the issue
by ignoring the issue
as if it never happened

to restore the previous
balance of their relationship
in the only way possible?

Stay With Me

In the mornin' don't say you love me,
'Cause I'll only kick you out of the door
I know your name is Rita 'cause your perfume's smellin' sweeter
Since when I saw you down on the floor. Oh, guitar
Won't need too much persuadin'
I don't mean to sound degradin',
But with a face like that you got nothin' to laugh about.
Red hair, lips and fingernails,
I hear you're a mean old Jezebel
Let's go upstairs and read my Tarot cards
Come on
Stay with me, stay with me
For tonight you'd better stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
For tonight you'd better stay with me
Come on
So, in the mornin', don't say you love me
'Cause you know I'll only kick you out the door
Yeah, I'll pay your cab fare home, you can even use my best cologne,
Just don't be here in the mornin' when I wake up
Keyboard, come on
Stay with me, stay with me
For tonight you'd better stay with me
Get up, get out now
Stay with me, stay with me
For tonight you'd better stay with me
Say what's your name again

Settle Down

Brimming with useless information,
Spilling thoughts void of true opinion,
Yes you'll fight it to the death,
Yeah you'll fight it to the death.
Fighting someone elses favour,
Regurgetate the words you heard on radio 2,
Arghhh didn't you?
[chorus]
Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be destructive so settle down, settle down
Well every dialoge needs a certain suitor,
One whos open minded,
To calmly digest the very question of,
And understand,
to look at things from many angles,
constuct and critic without anger,
Even comprimise,
You never comprimise
chorus x2
Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be destructive so settle down, settle down
Stop throwing insults and crockery around,
We can all be destructive so settle down, settle down, settle down, settle down

Play Me Gently

Pluck mine strings gently sweet dear
My soul’s melody prepares to delight
Even angels above dare not interfere

Take Me To The Top

Dont you know, know, know
Its a violation
I still hear you saying
Such a perfect, perfect night
No, no, no fight all temptation
Well, in a black heartened alley fight
Im screaming
Take me to the heights tonight
Take me to the top
Take me to the top...(repeat)
Too many times
Victim accusation
No, you dont have to take it like that
A sheer, sheer heart attack
No, no, no its no realization
I never had a way with you
But I still hear you saying
Take me to the top
Take me to the top...(repeat)
Take me to the top
To the top and throw me off...(repeat)
Take me to the top

Awake, My Heart

Awake, my heart, to be loved, awake, awake!

The darkness silvers away, the morn doth break,
It leaps in the sky: unrisen lustres slake
The o'ertaken moon. Awake, O heart, awake!

She too that loveth awaketh and hopes for thee:
Her eyes already have sped the shades that flee,
Already they watch the path thy feet shall take:
Awake, O heart, to be loved, awake, awake!

And if thou tarry from her, - if this could be, -
She cometh herself, O heart, to be loved, to thee;
For thee would unashamed herself forsake:
Awake, to be loved, my heart, awake, awake!

Awake! The land is scattered with light, and see,
Uncanopied sleep is flying from field and tree;
And blossoming boughs of April in laughter shake:
Awake, O heart, to be loved, awake, awake!

Lo, all things wake and tarry and look for thee:
She looketh and saith, "O sun, now bring him to me.
Come, more adored, O adored, for his coming's sake,
And awake, my heart, to be loved, awake, awake!"

Settle Down

Album: Eternal (2001)
[Chorus]
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down with me babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down with me babe
Settle down with me, babe
Settle down
Would you like a house on the hill
Overlooking the ocean side
Tell me, would you like that baby
Or how about a high-rise apartment
In Manhattan on the east side
If that's what you need
I'm here to please
Won't you settle down with me, baby
[Chorus]
We could take a jet plane all the way to Spain
Just to buy you a wedding ring
Tell me, would you like that baby
Oh, talk to me girl
We could get married on Christmas day
On the shores of Montego Bay
If that's what you need
I'm here to please
Won't you settle down with me
If you're ready
Only if you're ready
To settle down, settle down babe
Tell me if you're ready, ready yeah
To settle down with me babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down with me babe
Settle down, settle down
Settle down
I'm not trying to buy your love
Money ain't in it
You can't put a rpice on love
Tell me if I'm worthy of
Worthy of you're hand
Girl let's start making plans
You're shining like a star above
You're the light of my life
Oh girl, be my wife
Settle down baby
Oh but first
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down babe
I wanna know if you're ready, tell me baby
To settle down with me babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down with me babe
Settle down babe
Settle down
Ooh
oh, whoa
Oooh
No no no no no no no
Yeah yes
Oh settle down babe
Settle down
You tell me when you're ready
(I'm ready, I'm ready)
Do you think you're ready
(I, yes I am baby)
Please tell me
(You already know)
When you're ready
(Yes I'm ready)
Then We can settle down
(Settle down babe)
Settle down
(I'm ready)
I wanna know if you're ready
Oh wee, oh it feels like you're ready babe
I can tell if you're ready
We need to settle down babe
Settle down

I Get Excited

Well, you admit you like the game
But youre not gonna play
You just ignore what your body is tryin to say
I got the feelin that youre playin
And were both gonna win
And I think this angel is about to sin

Just thinkin what you might be like

Theres heaven in your eyes tonight
The fires ignited down below

Oh baby, stay, we got all night, all night
Baby please, I cant please
If Im on my knees tonight
No baby, you dont look that nervous
When you bite your lip
You keep em open when we kiss
Youre a hypocrite
You got my body dancin tangos
In three four time
This angels gonna spread her wings tonight

Just thinkin what you might be like

Theres heaven in your eyes tonight
The fires ignited down below

A Decade Under The Influence

Sad, small, sweet, so delicate
We used to be this dying breed
I got a bad feeling about this
I got a bad feeling about this
You kept still until the long drive home
You slept safe and close to the window...
I got a bad feeling about this
I got a bad feeling about...
Who's to say you'll have to go (I could go all night)
Well say you'll have to go (I could go all...)
To hell with you and all your friends
To hell with you and all your friends, it's on
Sad, small, sure in porcelain
You're skin and bones, I'm a nervous wreck
I got a bad feeling about this (when it comes to this)
I got a bad feeling about this
You kept still until the long drive home
You slept safe and close to the window
I got a bad feeling about this
I got a bad feeling about...
Who's to say you'll have to go (I could go all night)
Well, say you'll have to go (I could go all...)
To hell with you and all your friends
To hell with you and all your friends, it's on
I got a bad feeling about this (what is this for?)
I got a bad feeling about...
Anyone will do tonight
Anyone will do tonight
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Anyone will do tonight
Anyone will do tonight
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Anyone (anyone) will do tonight
Anyone (anyone) will do tonight
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Close your eyes, just settle, settle
Well I got a bad feeling about this,
I got a bad feeling about this (to hell with you and all your friends, it's on).
I'm coming over but it never was enough
I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you
Well I got a bad feeling about this
I got a bad feeling about this (to hell with you and all your friends, it's on)
I'm coming over but it never was enough
I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you
Well I got a bad feeling about this

Dare To Be Stupid

Put down your chainsaw and listen to me
Its time for us to join in the fight
Its time to let your babies grow up to be cowboys
Its time to let the bedbugs bite
You better put all your eggs in one basket
You better count your chickens before they hatch
You better sell some wine before its/its time
You better find yourself an itch to scratch
You better squeeze all the charmin you can while mr. wimpoles not around
Stick your head in the microwave and get yourself a tan
Talk with your mouth full
Bite the hand that feeds you
Bite on more than you chew
What can you do
Dare to be stupid
Take some wooden nickles
Look for mr. goodbar
Get your mojo working now
Ill show you how
You can dare to be stupid
You can turn the other cheek
You can just give up the ship
You can eat a bunch of sushi and forget to leave a tip
Dare to be stupid
Come on and dare to be stupid
Its so easy to do
Dare to be stupid
Were all waiting for you
Lets go
Its time to make a mountain out of a molehill
So can I have a volunteer
Theres no more time for crying over spilled milk
Now its time for crying in your beer
Settle down, raise a family, join the pta
Buy some sensible shoes and a chevyrolet
And party till youre broke and they drive you away
Its ok, you can dare to be stupid
Its like spitting on a fish
Its like barking up a tree
Its like I said you gotta buy one if you wanna get one free
Dare to be stupid (yes)
Why dont you dare to be stupid
Its so easy to do
Dare to be stupid
Were all waiting for you
Dare to be stupid
Burn your candle at both ends
Look a gift horse in the mouth
Mashed potatoes can be your friends
You can be a coffee achiever
You can sit around the house and watch leave it to beaver
The futures up to you
So what you gonna do
Dare to be stupid
Dare to be stupid
What did I say
Dare to be stupid
Tell me, what did I say
Dare to be stupid
Its alright
Dare to be stupid
We can be stupid all night
Dare to be stupid
Come on, join the crowd
Dare to be stupid
Shout it out loud
Dare to be stupid
I cant hear you
Dare to be stupid
Ok, I can hear you now
Dare to be stupid
Lets go, dare to be stupid
Dare to be stupid
Dare to be stupid
Dare to be stupid
Dare to be stupid

Father And Son

it's not time to make a change
just relax and take it easy
you're still young that's your fault
there's so much you have to know
find a girl and settle down
if you want well you can marry
look at me i am old but i'm happy
i was once like you are now
and i know that it's not easy
to be calm when you've found
something going on
take your time think a lot
think of everything you've got
you will still be here tomorrow
but your dreams may not
how can i try to explain
when i do he turns away again
and it's always been the same
same old story
from the moment i could talk
i was ordered to listen
now there's a way and i know
that i have to go away
i know i have to go
it's not time to make a change
(wait, wait)
just sit down and take it slowly
(wait)
you're still young that's your fault
(i have to go)
there's so much you have to go through
(and make this decision)
find a girl settle down
(i know)
if you want well you can marry
(know)
look at me i am old but i'm happy
all the times that i cried
(stay, stay)
keeping all the things i knew inside
(stay)
well it's hard but it's harder to ignore it
(why must you go)
if they were right i'd agree
(make these decisions)
but it's them they know not me
(i know)
now there's a way and i know
that i have to go away
i know i have to go
