Who Would Have Thought
strange to hear them say
i miss being a kid
though when all you had
to do was go to school
used to think
that
was so difficult
so eager to grow up
so eager to venture out into the world
so eager to earn money
so eager to spend money
so eager to travel to exotic places
so eager to experience life
some say school days
are the best days of your life
some said it is hard to believe...
that these are the best days of our life
when they were still teenagers at school...
I say why limit yourself expect
hope pray
the best is yet
to come

The School Days are near!
Same shrieking morning alarms,
Same morning fear!
The school days are near, The school days are near!
Sleeping in the bathroom,
From out, Mom shouts, '' DO YOU EVEN HEAR? ''
The school days are near, The school days are near!
So drowsy I am,
Confused, don't know what to wear!
The school days are near, The school days are near!
And entered into the school,
Murmuring silently, '' Oh dear! Oh dear! ''
The school days are near, the school days are near!
And if the first period is Maths,
Not again those equations linear! !
The school days are near, the school days are near!
A look at the load of books,
From the corner of my eye drops a tear!
The school days are near, the school days are near!
Gosh! When will vacations come?
We'll have to wait an year!
The school days are near, the school days are near!
Hoping when we go,
We'll find joy, sheer!
The school days are near, The school days are near! ! : D

Faith Has Two Eager Facets
1 Faith has two eager facets
Godly, worldly, visions vary
On the Truth of life how
Faith has two eager facets
Pray and seek to surrender
Prey and seek to share
Faith has two eager facets
Godly, worldly, visions vary
2 Faith has two eager facets
On the Truth of life how
Godly, worldly, visions vary
Faith has two eager facets
God in world, world in God
Be it any, only seek to save
On the Truth of life how
Faith has two eager facets

Devil in the eyes
eager to find something new
eager to be respected and rewarded
eager to get result faster than anyone else
it's why, insist that they are the right one
when the devil comes into their eyes
everything that wants to be seen and got
will looks like real
when effects to human
darkness from knowledge
settled without being known by anyone
darkness will always be there
but, it will be good if you can survive
not dragged into it

Today I Woke Up Eager
Today I woke up eager
Eager for love, for dreaming, for creating
For sitting with a bunch of good friends 'round the fire
And doing all the simple stuff as if they were the last
Today I just want to put my earphones on
Listen to that good old song and wander around
To throw my cellphone away and go missing
With no destination, with no time to arrive
Today I want to step out of line, I want to dig for the new, the different
To discover new skills, abilities, tastes
To unveil things that were suppressed either by failure or discrimination
To think with no established concepts, with no boundaries
Today, i'm going on a quest to find the witches den, the dragon's nest
Crossing out the fields under the sunlight in the company of my loyal dog
Fighting hordes of cows and going to places no one has ever been before
To, at least once, let the right brain take over and deviate
Today I'm eager for change
Cause maybe, we all deserve more
And maybe, the paradise is just a step away
I'm eager... for living

The Virgin
Virgin Mary
Is my first love
Epitome of innocence
I used to see her
In the Temple
Of my school
And pray
To be
As innocent
As her pictures
At my school
School of Innocence
School of Grace
School of Sacrifice
Is my School
And I miss the days
That were the days
That were the days!

Epilogue to Through the Looking Glass
A boat, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July --
Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear
Pleased a simple tale to hear --
Long has paled that sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.
Still she haunts me, phantomwise
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.
Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.
In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream --
Lingering in the golden gleam --
Life what is it but a dream?

My Tongue
My tongue is here and
Always wants to cover.
I am cautious and at times
I forget to switch clause.
In each and every stage
I faced don
Who thought I am a mean
Each and everytime
I am here to win.
My tongue is eager
And eager to utter
I am a man of error
And declared
By the judge winner.

She Shines
She shines like a flower
In my head
Everybody,
Wants to pick her head
(Chorus)
She said she loved me
And lied to me
She was by the river
And lied to me
She shines like a flower
In my head
Everybody,
Wants her in their bed
(Chorus)
She said she loved you
And lied to you
She was by the river
And lied to you
So eager

So eager 3x

School Boy
When I was of Thrice
My mom dressed me nice
By putting my lovely dress shoes and socks
I went to school with lunch box
Every early morning of new day
I woke up with joy and gay
But when its time to say good bye
To my mom I began to cry!
Soon I habitual and eager to go
Whatever rain, heat or snow
But when I squeezed by homework
I try to cop-out from my work
When I saw exam on my head
I try to stay on bed
I was always fearful scared
And always prays to runaround
As I grew I become mature and impure
I’m more unique and antique
I stand in that position
Where I forgot my definition
As Instead of innocent and smart boy
I become a naughty boy
When I was young I want to be elder
But when I’m elder I want to be younger
Here I’m totally change
As here I want to escape
I try to bunk the classes
And love to be in picnic places
They are great source of fun
With all loons!
Ah! Now I stand on death
And now wandering into these lovely wealth
But I feel sad and cry
For what I miss as a boy
I beg to live this moment
Which are dark and shade.
I’m an innocent school boy
Who want to joy.
Moments are priceless and invaluable
And now I’m going to die
I was born with you
But I’ll die before you
I’ll be back again
In face of your children
Then you’re not going to enjoy
Me again as a school boy
I’m going towards my sepulchre
And remain in your photo or snap
I’ll be with you as in photographs
As an unforgettable memories
I’ll strike your mind
When someone will remind
Or passing from nearby the school boys
Will remind about your lovely days
Ye now I’m going to sleep
And now I’m leaving to weep
Getting ready for others
As I will sprout up in others life
As I’m a school boy
Who loves to joy
I’m a school boy
Who wants to joy
Who wants to joy…

Omega Man
We set the same scene
Circumstances different than they
Might have been
People in two places can be
Pulled into a scheme
Never what you're fighting for
Life alone
Lose a lover's arms
Never makes it easy when you try too hard
I wish you would define what you feel
Hard on or letting go
(CHORUS1)
I'm the Omega Man
Stand tall and understand
Everybody needs a plan
Mine is a better way
There'll be trouble in the world
Sex and the single girl
I'm an over-eager man
Find me a better way
Find me a better way
We share the same pain
Underneath the covers I will set you free
I will prove to you my love is
Older than the sky
Stronger than the night is long
Lord of hearts
Leader of us all
Let it be together if we rise or fall
Or is it just my imagination
Or the light of a precious stone
(You'll never be alone)
(CHORUS2)
I'm the Omega Man
I travel over land
Everybody needs a plan
Find me a better way
There'll be trouble in the world
Sex and the single girl
I'm an over-eager man
Find me a better way
Find me a better way
Here at the scene of the crime
Laid in your arms I will die
I know it's more than infatuation
That's keeping this man alive
(REPEAT CHORUS1

Back-to-School Shopping
The calendar is changing its expression
Summer days are getting shorter and cooling
The months are flipping over in succession...
Time to prepare for September schooling
Boys and girls are eager to purchase
new duds for a brand-new school year
Can't forget a new lunchbox and thermos
New shoes will surely shift motion into gear
Starting at mid-day…eager and carefree
beginning to look for a proper fit
Can't figure out why same sizes vary
Try everything on before deciding on it
From each fashion display we forge forward
Feet are dragging…patience is running thin
Children are misbehaving…a bribe is offered
Improve and get a treat that'll make you grin
A shade of clarity changes their complexion
If this is true, the effort to calm down
would be rewarding… time for a correction
Maybe it'll be an ice-cream with a double crown
Standing at the counter with selections piled...
Not sure if the height of accumulation will
stay within the budget… or exceed by a mile
With the swipe of a credit card… I am billed
The day has turned dark… mission is complete
Reassured that the first day of the school year
will begin on a positive note… as friends greet
I look to the day they graduate and have careers

Evergreen School Days........
Our evergreen school days
will not come back again
From the nursery to high school
we learnt the best
and the best that taught by our teachers
Our school life was full of cheers
and lived with full of mischievous
but the discipline was maintained well
We sang and danced without
thinking of our future.
We spent money without earned them
When the school start after the vacation
we meet our friends happily and
welcomed new friends dearly
We played all the games and we won
many games with out care of sun or rain
Many years have been gone
today we live different parts of the world
but the memories of our school days
will live in our hearts as ever green days.

Indigo Sightings
Eager to please
Eager to swallow
Hook, line and sinker
Such are but indigo sightings
Part of my rainbow
The color of blood oozes in delight
Reaching towards the relativities in life
Seeking a hand for support
Whatever leanings one has to offer
My point of reference
Has always been for the good of many
The poor, the sick and the needy
I may be deaf, i may be blind
But you Oh Lord
Know what my heart speaks over and over
I might be a fool to others
But justice seeks its own kind
On boundaries I say find
Indigo sightings

My School Days
Now-a-days where is that cheer,
unless i call up friends to have a beer,
Just like mist gone we are apart in many ways,
But where are my School days.
Now-a-days where is that enthusiasm,
for i bump into people with only sarcasm,
we sail world over on a ship,
unsuccessful even to strike a good friendship,
We have indeed drifted in many ways,
But where are my School days.
Now-a-days where is that laughter,
I hear just laughs to flatter,
true friends were those who where just there,
to say 'Hey we really care'
Scattered are we in many ways,
But where are my School days.
We are born with faces,
and now with a 'book',
we are now connected in many ways,
Where i come to cherish my School days.

School Is Not So Cool
School, School, School,
A school is not so cool
We're here 5 days a week
8 hours a day.
School, School, School,
A school is not so cool.
People laugh when we fall
we just have to make a call.
School, School, School
A school is not so cool.
We have to work hard to get good grades
I'm not going to do it no more
I do it everyday.
We cant go on the grass
We cant bother another class
We cant save spots at lunch
We have to go as a bunch.
We have 3 minutes in the hall
I'm always late what a ball.
We have to pay attention
if not we get detention.
School, School, School,
A school is not so cool.
They have to many rules
they play us as fools
if we get A's
the parents jump Hip Hip Hooray.
If we get F's
we tell them we need to take a rest.
We always have homework
we never have classwork
they have to many rules
they need to take it cool.
School, School, School,
A school is so not cool!

To Fidget And Squirm
You challenge me to debate?
That's great.
You name the time, place and date.
And I prefer to do this,
Without the presence of note taking.
What is the topic you have picked to slate?
I anticipate this.
I can not wait.
'I will have to research that.
You are a bit too eager,
To be seen the fool I wish to make.
Too eager you are.
I'll have to pick on another,
To debate on my terms.
It is you and not me,
I want others to see publicly squirm.'
Oh, no problem.
I thought you were seriously prepared.
'To debate? '
No.
To fidget and squirm.
