Casanova
Casanova is a state
Everyman aspires to attain
But scorn at one
Who has achieved it.

Everyman
Looking around nowhere to go
Looking high but youre feelin low
Ready or not you got to run when you can
Stealin time just like everyman
Oh oh wanna let you know
You cant hide you cant hide
Oh-oh wanna tell you so
Well you tried I think you lied
Everyman you get lonely
Saw you cryingjust the other day
Everyman its not your money
You and I get to feel this way
We can feel the rain
Were like everyman
Spend your time spend your money too
Spend your life if it gets you through
Look around see you everywhere
Stealin love well its just not fair
Oh oh wanna let you know
You cant hide you cant hide
Oh-oh wanna tell you so
Well you tried but I think you lied
Everyman you get lonely
Saw you crying just the other day
Everyman its not your money
You and I get to feel this way
We can feel the rain

Everyman you get lonely
Saw you crying just the other day
Everyman its not your money
You and I get to feel this way
We can feel the rain
Were like everyman
See you everywhere I go, looking high but youre feeling low

Casanova Brown
Let me tell you bout that jive type
That jive type
Casanova brown
I met him at a party
He said the sweetest things when he hit on me
Wrapped up in his arms
I was blinded by his charm and I couldnt see
Like the story of little red riding hood
The big bad wolf was up to
Up to no good, woo, no
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova brown
He hit on me and hell hit on you
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova brown
I was lonely and naive
I guess thats why I believed every word he says
It felt so good to hear
Every time he said he cared it went straight to my head
He loved me and left me
But I cant deny
His love was so doggone good
I still, I still love that guy, ooh, [oh no] hey
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova brown
He hit on me and hell hit on you, watch out
That jive type,that jive type, ooh
Casanova brown
Let me tell you bout that jive type
That jive type
Casanova brown
That jive type,that jive type,
Casanova brown
I was sittin there mindin my business
Feelin good, checkin things out
Sippin on little wine [jive type, that jive type]
Then I spotted
Super cool dude cross the room diggin on me
I tried to pretend like I didnt even see him
But he was so fine
He took my hand and started to dancin
I know he felt me fallin for him
cause he kept holdin me tighter and tighter, ooh
Sure was nice
Girl, my head was all turned around, oh
I didnt know what I was gettin into, ooh, ow
Up to no good, oh no
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova brown
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova brown
Like the story of little red riding hood
The big bad wolf was up to
Up to no good, woo, oh

For Everyman
Everybody I talk to is ready to leave
With the light of the morning
Theyve seen the end coming down long enough to believe
That theyve heard their last warning
Standing alone
Each has his own ticket in his hand
And as the evening descends
I sit thinking bout everyman
Seems like Ive always been looking for some other place
To get it together
Where with a few of my friends I could give up the race
And maybe find something better
But all my fine dreams
Well though out schemes to gain the motherland
Have all eventually come down to waiting for everyman
Waiting here for everyman--
Make it on your own if you think you can
If you see somewhere to go I understand
Waiting here for everyman--
Dont ask me if hell show -- baby I dont know
Make it on your own if you think you can
Somewhere later on youll have to take a stand
Then youre going to need a hand
Everybodys just waiting to hear from the one
Who can give them the answers
And lead them back to that place in the warmth of the sun
Where sweet childhood still dances
Wholl come along
And hold out that strong and gentle fathers hand?
Long ago I heard someone say something bout everyman
Waiting here for everyman--
Make it on your own if you think you can
If you see somewhere to go I understand
Im not trying to tell you that Ive seen the plan
Turn and walk away if you think I am--
But dont think too badly of one whos left holding sand
Hes just another dreamer, dreaming bout everyman

Everyman
everyone's beating their war drums
everyone want's a blue
naybiddy wants responsibility
naybiddy want' te lose
everyone's a hero
everyone's so cool
naybiddy wants te sacrifice
naybiddy think's that their the fools
everyone's a winner
everyone special too
naybiddy wants te pay the price
naybiddy wants the pain o' truth
everyone's beating their wardrums
everyone want's a blue
everyones a hero
everyone's so cool
naybiddy wants responsibility
naybiddy wants te lose
naybiddy want's te pay the price

everyman, everyman
everyman me and you
everyone's beating their wardrums
everyone want's a blue
everyones a winner
yet everyone will lose

Heavenly Thoughts
In the meaning of heavenly thoughts is a blessing,
You learn from the green and white, the blue and black.
Any colour is on this sheet of paper,
You mix heaven with heavenly and dance.
The real objective is to attain pleasures of the top,
Your heavens are various, but well constructed.
In the heavenliest manner is your existence,
Your living and being is for the dying,
You sweat and burrow in order to attain,
In due course the pain of pleasure has disappeared
And has left nobody in pain at all.
Heaven has been achieved, and we are now in heaven.

Science condemns itself to failure when, yielding to the infatuation of the serious, it aspires to attain being, to contain it, and to possess it; but it finds its truth if it considers itself as a free engagement
of thought in the given, aiming, at each discovery, not at fusion with the thing, but at the possibility of new discoveries; what the mind then projects is the concrete accomplishment of its freedom.

Dying womanhood
A woman clings to her husband,
Worthwhile or otherwise,
Repelling everyman who advances
And everyman she is drawn to
And dies with the fall of her husband,
With child bearing and the child rearing
in between,
with the fullest subordination.
Womanhood suffers from wifehood.

Who Am I To Cast The First Stone
Every life will have its troubles
that reap the stones of scorn.
No one is perfect,
least of all myself alone.
Therefore, onto others,
who am I to cast the first stone.

We couldn’t be she
If a woman surrenders her virtue
It means the return she gets is higher.
She does it knowingly what is at stake.
You and I scorn as we couldn’t be she.

You Left
India, it is u went
Friend
Three decades now
You've left
And what hav you achieved?
If not bread to live by
Tell me what have
You achieved dear friend?
.
As for me, your friehd
In Nigeria,
I have achieved nothing
Just freedom,
And life, to live by.

On A Plateau Leaving
On a plateau leaving...
Are those who stood by to warn,
And 'suggest'...
Times to leave behind,
Limiting and upsetting pettiness...
Would overnight,
Be as useless as a waste of breath.
On a plateau leaving,
Are those who have achieved...
A higher consciousness.
And not one is looking to find,
Anyone from fading times...
Who did not have this addressed.
On a plateau leaving,
Are those in a new state of mind.
And...
On a plateau leaving,
Those who are commited to defeat and confine.
And...
On a plateau leaving,
Are those in a new state of mind.
And...
On a plateau leaving.
On a plateau leaving.
On a plateau leaving,
Are those in a new state of mind.
And...
On a plateau leaving,
Those who are commited to defeat and confine.
And...
On a plateau leaving,
Are those in a new state of mind.
And...
On a plateau leaving.
On a plateau leaving.
Yes...
On a plateau leaving,
Are those in a new state of mind.
And...
On a plateau leaving.
On a plateau leaving behind.
And...
On a plateau leaving.
On a plateau leaving
On a plateau leaving,
Are those in a new state of mind.
And...
On a plateau leaving.
On a plateau leaving.

Seek An Adventure
Seeking the truth is a man’s adventure,
Believe in treasures of knowledge
And only we are fit to attain piety
If the commencement has been achieved.
Inside the energy has begun to resolve
The only hearing one of us feels;
The infinite philosophy quietens the mood
For the one who wrecks living is the non-thinker.
Offer him a prize when he shall bear the pain
Of a learning-period, of a hospital of life.
