Something So Sweet
something so sweet must have happened
between that two of you
on that bench last night
the ants have built a monument
of a hill
and they are all crazy and craving.

A Place To Sit
Smoochers and snoggers, and resting joggers
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Ramblers and walkers, and street hawkers
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Mini’s and Roller’s, and lady strollers
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Old folk and young folk, and dogs with no folk
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Market traders and cavers, and money savers
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Children that play who meet everyday
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Students and teachers, and lay preachers
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Loose women and boys the ‘for sale’ toys
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Addicts and dealers, and police squealers
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Dogs out for a pee who can’t find a tree
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Drunks in the night who like to fight
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Spray painters and doodlers, and bench abusers
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Vandals and hooligans, and booted ruffians
all seem to stop at this concrete bench.
Demolishers and breakers, and obliterators
never stopped until they destroyed this concrete bench.

Built To Last
There are times when you must beckon,
There are times when you must fall.
You can take a lot of wrecking,
But you cant take it all.
There are times when I can help you out,
And times when you must fall.
There are times when you must live in doubt,
And I cant help at all.
Two blue stars, shine oer the hill.
Plead no more, now just be still.
Through the night, now safely there.
Show me something built to last.
Been held by the fire,
Yes and im, held by the ring.
You can walk on balls of fire,
But sometimes you might bleed.
There are times when I have begged you
And you do the same to me.
If you cant or wont admit it,
At least we pulled you through.
Three blue stars, set oer the hill.
Call them back; you never will.
All these trials, soon be dead.
We all need something built to last.
Built to last till time of seven,
Falls tumbling from the sky.
Built to last till lightness fades,
And darkness falls on all.
Built to last till years roll back
Our couch perched in the sky
Show me something different,
Or something built to try.
There are times when you get hit up on,
Try hard but you cannot give.
Other times, youd gladly go
With what you need to give.
Dont be afraid to save your face,
When you have done your best
Now I wont forget,
Next day try the rest.
All the stars, are gone but one.
Morning dreams, we found the sun.
Show me something built to last
Two blue stones, shine oer the hill.
Call it back; you never will
All these trials, now are dead.
Show me something built to last.
All the stars, are gone but one.
Morning dreams. here comes the sun.
Through the night, now sinking fast.
Show me something built to last.

Drawing Crazy Patterns
Its like sleeping now
He got married in the rush
Abels only son was gone
He finds hard to adjust
Hes feeling younger now
Younger than he was before
He wishes he had changed his mind
Yeah old mistakes they seem so small
And if he had to be you
Then hed get out and do the things hes always wanted
Standing outside
Like a joker on a hill
Hes drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes
Some people push by
And everyone is cursing them
But he doesnt raise his hand
He broke his dreams and lost his friends
Hes asking questions now
Got caught in his confusion
He shakes his head and looks at me
Then he shouts out loud
If you had to be me
Would you get out and do the things you always wanted
Standing outside
Like a joker on a hill
Hes drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes
Standing outside
Like a joker on a hill
Hes drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes
Its like sleeping now
When youre gazing at the floor
And on this late night
Its getting harder now harder now
Standing outside
Like a joker on a hill
Hes drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes
Hes drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes
Hes drawing crazy patterns
With his shoes

Of Ants and Life
…guess me correct
of ants and life they connect
causing a traffic jam on their trails I cannot forget
of ants as they swam from tree barks to get
a source of existence cannot let
the ants in drought to starve
for food is what they have once collected
and stored;
that which none has never rejected
nor objected
of ants and life
the futuristic species
that know when to pick up the pieces
of anything,
and the guard ants making sure nothing misses
from whence it were piled and stored
of ants and life ‘am never bored
as I observed how they nod
in respect and honor on board
as they pass each other a hustle they accord
of ants and life as they seek to conform
to a life in all its form
if ants can manage their own
why can’t we not of our own?

What happened last night
What happened last night,
Was unforgivable.
What happened last night,
Was not great.
What happened last night,
Was not fun.
What happened last night,
Was unforgetable.
What happened last might,
I forgot.

Craving!
Craving!
An essence within my heart,
Unknown.
Craving!
And yet I know this taste.
A familiarity embraces me.
Craving!
Bathing in the fragrance of it.
Hoping that it will covet me.
Once it identifies,
Which desire it gives that pleases.
Craving!
This life.
And its teasing!

They Came From Distant Places
They came from distant places to this far southern shore
The men who built the city at rest forever more
Some of them could not speak the language but they were strong and young
And they were willing workers and their praises ought be sung
The men who built the city their grandchildren old today
They worked hard to support their wives and families from their old homeland far away
They built the factories, homes and railways and they worked hard for their pay
The men who built the city for years with Nature lay
No monument built to them no last post for them played
For the men who built the city there was never a parade
Only their direct descendants would have heard of them by name
To be honest and hard working is never a claim to fame
The men who built the city their praises remain unsung
And today their grandchildren are not what one would call young.

Its Not The Night
Its not the night
For foolin
Its not the night
For crazy eyes
I get the feelin
You want to stay
I get the feelin
Youre givin it all away
But I know
I know you take it well
And for you
For you I always fell
Its not the night

For, for sweet revenge
Its not the night

To spend
The time is right
To take it out
The time is right to tango
Got a feelin
Youre runnin out
Before your last fandango
Its not the night

For sweet, sweet revenge
Its not the night
(its not the night)
To spend
Its not the night
For sticky boots [? ]
Its not the night
For tango
I get the feelin
Youre the spark
Thats dancin in the dark
I get the feelin
Youre the one
A rushin on the run
Its not the night
(its not the night)
For sweet revenge
Its not the night
(its not the night)
To spend
Its not the night
(its not the night)
Youre lookin for sweet, sweet revenge
Its not the night
(its not the night)
Night to end
Its not the night

Lullaby; by the Sea
Fair is the castle up on the hill--
Hushaby, sweet my own!
The night is fair, and the waves are still,
And the wind is singing to you and to me
In this lowly home beside the sea--
Hushaby, sweet my own!
On yonder hill is store of wealth--
Hushaby, sweet my own!
And revellers drink to a little one's health;
But you and I bide night and day
For the other love that has sailed away--
Hushaby, sweet my own!
See not, dear eyes, the forms that creep
Ghostlike, O my own!
Out of the mists of the murmuring deep;
Oh, see them not and make no cry
Till the angels of death have passed us by--
Hushaby, sweet my own!
Ah, little they reck of you and me--
Hushaby, sweet my own!
In our lonely home beside the sea;
They seek the castle up on the hill,
And there they will do their ghostly will--
Hushaby, O my own!
Here by the sea a mother croons
"Hushaby, sweet my own!"
In yonder castle a mother swoons
While the angels go down to the misty deep,
Bearing a little one fast asleep--
Hushaby, sweet my own!

Crazy Enough
I am crazy enough to jump off a bridge for you
Even when i have seen you only once.
I am crazy enough to still be thinking about you
Even when i know nothing of you at all
crazy enough to build castles in the sky
crazy enough to imagine you and me
crazy enough to never see
the lie of you
I am crazy enough to stand in the rain
so i might see you once more
crazy enough to follow you home
so i can see you for a while
and i am crazy enough to want to be your
sickness so that you might go unhindered
crazy enough that no pain hurts me deeply
crazy enough that i cant let go
i am crazy enough to want to die for you
and there is nothing known about you
i am crazy enough to want to kidnap you
and watch you grow old in the cupboard of my mind
crazy enough to kill you so i might have you forever
crazy enough to only think
' if not mine no one else's
crazy enough that i might want to haunt you
I am crazy enough to hear what i want
crazy enough to hurt you so i might love you more
crazy enough to offer my soul
for you
crazy enough to want to
be you
i am crazy enough to say that
i don't know you except by sight
but i love you all the same

Lost Man Insane
Damn this is crazy, this is crazy, this is crazy…
Because we’ve been separated for the longest time now, but a particular bond has always held us together,
You’re not mine and I’m not yours but there’s still something hidden, deep in between the distance…
When you told me what happened, I wanted to punch down the wall of regret I built around my heart,
No shower can wash me of this uneasy feeling because I was coming back; at least that’s what I thought…
I just needed a little more time… I can’t take it back, or change what is done, what is now or what is reality…
So many times I wanted to call you back and lay bricks to a new foundation, I just never seemed to find the time in me…
Sad to say you were on my list to do, to love you the way a good man is supposed to, the way I was supposed to…
I’m mad at you, but even angrier at my actions, because I let idle time take control of my passion…
My heart finally dropped when I realized this means no more you and us…
This is crazy, this is crazy, this is crazy…
Because that was supposed to be my bundle of joy you carry inside you…
And I was supposed to be the one to help guide it…
That was supposed to be my cradle of life that has been planted deep inside you…
My facial expressions show it, and I don’t think there’s any way to hide it…
I was supposed to be the one that holds it and let it know that daddy is right here…
And I was supposed to be the one to assure it that daddy isn’t going anywhere…
I was supposed to be the one to help nurture and expand its mind…
I’m sorry because I got lost in the world, caught up in all of its shine,
And now it seems I’ve run out of time…
This is crazy, this is crazy, God damn, this is crazy…

Crazy About You
Ooooo...
Im crazy about you
Ill give you all my love
Yes Im crazy about you
Night and day, day and night
Ill be your hearts salvation
Hey baby, lets stay together
Lets make it now and forever
I want to show it and shout it
And tell the whole world about it
I thought it never could happen
I thought you never would see me
You run a lovin locomotive
You make my needs very primitive
The more I get, the more I want from you, of your affection
When youre around, Im in control, I feel a complete connection
Hello, hello
Im so crazy about you, you know... baby
Hello, hello, hello
Yes Im crazy, so crazy about you
Cmon close your eyes, honey, trust me!
I want to enjoy your body
I want to take you much higher
And play the game of desire
Well I cant hide
Im getting hungry for a bite
Im blinded by this obsession
I keep dancing like your possession
Ill wrap my legs all around you Ill show you total devotion
No need to talk love will speak to you with sweet emotions
Hello, hello
Im so crazy about you, you know...baby
Hello, hello, hello
Yes Im crazy, so crazy about you

Same Thing Happened To Me
Moonlight shining on the back of my hand
Cat fight rattlin the garbage can
Looks like somethin chased you up a tree
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Wild wind blowing down the neck of my shirt
Old men sitting on a bench in the dirt
Seems that another ship has gone out to sea
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Shoe shine someones got to tell ya the news
A fine line separates a boy from the blues
Looks like you could use some company
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Runnin, runnin just as fast as I can
Someone, someone take a hold of my hand
Looks like somethin chased you up a tree
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Same thing, same thing happened to me.

Self Medication
Crazy girl
All jumbled up inside
With a sweet tooth and a craving
For the candy that get's her high
Her life has become a blur
She's running ahead at full speed
Jumping head first into euphoria
Temporarily filling a need
She walks a straight white line
It takes her to the moon
Where the world seems so much brighter
Everything will be okay soon
Crazy girl
All jumbled up inside
Waking up one day
Barely recognizing her own life

The Mysteries Of The Night
after the rain
you go back to the garden
below the rustic palms
and the old mango tree
you sit upon
a bench
the air is cool
you contemplate
deeply
now the trees are
speaking to you
and they are grieving
you listen
to the footsteps of the ants
you feel the softness of
butterfly wings all over your skin
your mind scatters
like fireflies
the night makes an
agreement with you
you shall be muted
to keep the secrets of this
silent moments

Crazy Days
My days are so crazy.
but what makes it so crazy?
I guess just being bored
and happened to be lazy at the same time.
Why are my days crazy?
Well the days might be something true
Or might be something blue.
I will tell you why my days are crazy.
It's because i am crazily in Love with you!

Kiss Of Love
i came to you broken and bleeding
we both shared the pain of our past
i never thought i would kiss you and feel love
but i was wrong
i have had this unknown craving
for what i didnt know
the craving took over and once i met you
and you said i love you my craving was gone
now i long to fell you beside me every second
its like i cant get enough of your sweet love
just the taste makes me want more
you fixed me and stop the bleeding
i never thought id want anyone so badly
but you are my world
my heart is yours
and my words i will keep
i couldnt stand you ever leaving
i treasure every moment with you
i never want it to end
when i dream its only sweet when its about you
i miss you every moment of every day
thinking about you like i do and dayz by the thought
i love who you are
i love your voice and your words
your kisses and hugz
and your touch
i want it and need it so much
i want you and your love to stay forever

Ready An Willing

I wanna be loved,
Dont wanna be teased.
I dont want no woman
Getting down on her knees.
Im ready an willing
To reach for the sun,
So I can get me some loving
Before Im gone.
I want more, more, more, more,
I want some more
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.
I want you to rock me
All night long.
Rope an ride me, baby,
Do me wrong.
Roll me over, make be bleed,
Id dance with the devil
To get what I need.
I need more, more, more, more,
I need some more of that
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.
I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And its driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
Its driving me out of my mind.
Im talking about sweet satisfaction,
Im ready an willing, sweet satisfaction.
Im ready an willing, sweet satisfaction.
Sweet satisfaction, sweet satisfaction.
Im ready an willing.
I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And its driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,

Its driving me out of my mind.

Sweet satisfaction, Im ready an willing.
Sweet satisfaction, Im ready an willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking.
