1 Tonto
TONTO
In one life he was
the mentor to the Lone Ranger
known as Tonto.
Now he's been reborn as a woman
and campaigns against Harper's
baby seal clubbing... in Toronto.

Run Tonto Run
Dont even try
Dont want no piece of your sky
And I wont look back
Cause your blue is all black
Your twisted frown
Is really upside down
And it wont last long
Cause your right is all wrong
You live in a box
Miniature hands, tiny sox
Your love is a sigh
It just passes me by
Im gonna run tonto run
Pale hollow frame
Run tonto run
Youve let your blood in vein
Run tonto run away
Dont undress desire
Its always on fire
Strange hour fall down
Im gonna burn down this town
A splinter in my vein
A volcano under rain
Alt (your love the desert sands)
Alt (go cut your hands)
Your in love with your clone
Which means youre alone
Im gonna run tonto run
Pale hollow frame
Run tonto run
Youve let your blood in vein
Run tonto run away
You disappear just like a wrapper in a candy store
And I am left wanting more
And dont even think
This ship wont sink
I wont hesitate
Youll choke on your hate
Im gonna run tonto run
Pale hollow frame
Run tonto run
Youve let your blood in vein
Run tonto run away
You better run tonto run
You better run tonto run
You better run tonto run away
And dont even try
Dont want no piece of your sky
And I wont hesitate
Its already too late
Alt (and I wont look back)
Alt (cause your blue is all black)

Well Almost
“Tune in next week, same time, same station”
How those words so frustrated me
Why did they always need to ration
Time with my hero, who elated me
Hi Ho Silver, Away! !
The masked man, Lone Ranger
With faithful friend Tonto
Could squelch any danger
They squelched danger pronto
Hi Ho Silver, Away! !
Riding the plains on their most valiant steeds
Opposing those outlawing dudes
To radio stories of unmatched deeds
My seven year old ears stayed glued
Hi Ho Silver, Away! !
Adorned in boots, mask and white hat
I’d be riding those great western plains
Astride Silver, I would stop crime flat
With my fighting injustice campaigns
Hi Ho Silver, Away! !
Time galloped on, though a century late
My dreams have come to fruition (Well almost)
I’m riding high now in my Silvery State
Like a macho cowboy patrician (Well almost)
Hi Ho Silver, Away! !
(Well almost)

Well, the lone ranger and tonto
They are ridin down the line
Fixin evrybodys troubles
Evrybodys cept mine
Somebody musta tol em
That I was doin fine
Oh you five and ten cent women
With nothin in your heads
I got a real gal Im lovin
And lord Ill love her till Im dead
Go away from my door and my window too
Right now
Lord, I aint goin down to no race track
See no sports car run
I dont have no sports car
And I dont even care to have one
I can walk anytime around the block
Well, the wind keeps a-blowin me
Up and down the street
With my hat in my hand
And my boots on my feet
Watch out so you dont step on me
Well, lookit here buddy
You want to be like me
Pull out your six-shooter
And rob every bank you can see
Tell the judge I said it was all right
Yes!

Con Lo Bien Que Te Ves (When You're Looking Like That - Single Remix)
Con lo bien que te ves (ves, ves, ves, ves)
Yeah, yeah
Ojos de tigresa que te tiran a matar
Una Diosa viviente duele saber que con otro esta
Mio fue su corazon
Como fue que la deje por otro amor?
Hasta perderla nunca supe su gran valor, yeah
Te falle y se que
Tu dolor me vas a cobrar
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Que tonto fui porque tu fuiste mia y te deje escapar
Dame otra oportunidad
Que no haria por besar tus labios?
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Vestida esta en glamour y en rock & roll
La quisiera abrazar
Besarla otra vez, hacerla perder el control
Aunque se que te perdi, espero
Que regreses junto a mi por siempre
Que ironia que te tuve y te perdi
Te falle y se que
Tu dolor me vas a cobrar
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Que tonto fui porque tu fuiste mia y te deje escapar
Dame otra oportunidad
Que no haria por besar tus labios?
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Que tonto fui porque tu fuiste mia y te deje escapar
Dame otra oportunidad (nooo...)
Que no haria por besar tus labios? (yeah)
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Donde sea que estes tu,
Es donde yo quiero estar
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves (ves, ves, ves, ves)
Como quieres que te olvide?
Tu fuiste mia y te deje escapar, (oh no babe)
No te puedo olvidar, amor
Que no haria por besar tus labios, (por besar tus labios)
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves
Que tonto fui porque tu fuiste mia y te deje escapar
Dame otra oportunidad (ohhh...)
Que no haria por besar tus labios?
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Te tuve y te he perdido
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves, (con lo bien que te ves)
Que tonto fui porque tu fuiste mia y te deje escapar
Dame otra oportunidad (que no haria por besar tus labios?)
Que no haria por besar tus labios? (yeah)
Como es que te llegue a perder?
Con lo bien que te ves

The Lone Ranger! !
The lone ranger! !
All along,
All alone,
Down there in the bush;
Foretold,
Written down,
And, with great hope!
But, to stay at rest and to say the least.
The lone ranger! !
Once in a life time;
Searching for a place to call my home,
But, i am still alone in the bush.
Down there,
Out there,
Searching and hoping;
And like the muse of love!
But, to stay at rest and to say the least.

Ang tunay na lalaki (The Real Man) Stalks in the Streets of New York
Looking to harvest what makes him happy.
The AA meetings have thrown
him into iconoclastic jousts with Titans
and Gorgons with glowing snake eyes
and leather pants. This is life
without the Filipino bottle,
without the star fruit boogie,
without the "bomba" films. He wears black
Dr. Martens boots because slippers
would expose his "provinciano" feet
to the snow. He wants to ride
the back of a caribou and bolt
up Madison Avenue screaming
like Tandang Sora or shout
"hala-bira! hala-bira! hala-bira!"
like his Isneg cousins in Aklan.
"Ay, susmaryosep!" Such bad behavior
from the "true male" of Filipino
advertising. He looks at his reflection
on a book store window, notices
that his hair has grown shoulder-length
like Tonto in the Lone Ranger
he would watch on TV. He turns to the right,
his profile now looks like the young Bruce Lee
as Kato in the Green Hornet. Yes,
he realizes it will always be the face
of a supporting character. Rejected
from the Absolut Vodka magazine ads,
he decides to change his name
for an upcoming afternoon audition
for a Preparation H commercial - "Al Moranas",
American but with a Filipino flare.

Toronto Symphony # 1
Toronto is growing everyday
Because new buildings in Toronto is going up everywhere
And I believe that soon the view will be blocked
But I believe that one day we won't have the green space anymore
Because the green space will be filled with buildings
Can we save the green space in Toronto?
Does anybody cares about the green space in Toronto
And Toronto is not a clean city
it is very dirty indeed and the reason for that is that everybody litter the Street everywhere they go
And the streets in Toronto are full of potholes

(accuracy is not guaranteed)
Rocknroll, rock, rocknroll
Rocknroll, rock, rocknroll
Do you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played
And the world span around to a brand new sound of those far off days
In their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout
And theyd sing the blues, let it all hang out
Rocknroll - hey! - rocknroll
A rocknroll - hey! - rocknroll
Rocknroll - hey! - rocknroll
Rocknroll, rock, rocknroll
A rocknroll, rock
Took the queen of bop to the high school hop, dancing to the beat
With a u.s. male and her pony tail, well she looked so sweet
Times are changing fast but we wont forget, though that age is past, well be rockin yet
Rocknroll - hey! - rocknroll

We meet people, brand new people
Theyre something to see when youre

Night clubbing, were night clubbing

We learn dances, brand new dances

You Don't Mess Around With Jim
Uptown got it's hustlers
The bowery got it's bums
42nd street got big jim walker
He's a pool-shootin' son of a gun
Yeah, he big and dumb as a man can come
But he stronger than a country hoss
And when the bad folks all get together at night
You know they all call big jim "boss", just because
And they say
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger
And you don't mess around with jim
Well outta south alabama came a country boy
He say i'm lookin' for a man named jim
I am a pool-shootin' boy
My name willie mccoy
But down home they call me slim
Yeah i'm lookin' for the king of 42nd street
He drivin' a drop top cadillac
Last week he took all my money
And it may sound funny
But i come to get my money back
And everybody say jack don't you know
And you don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger
And you don't mess around with jim
Well a hush fell over the pool room
Jimmy come boppin' in off the street
And when the cuttin' were done
The only part that wasn't bloody
Was the soles of the big man's feet
Yeah he were cut in in bout a hundred places
And he were shot in a couple more
And you better believe
They sung a different kind of story
When big jim hit the floor now they say
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger
And you don't mess around with slim
Yeah, big jim got his hat
Find out where it's at
And it's not hustlin' people strange to you
Even if you do got a two-piece custom-made pool cue
Yeah you don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the old lone ranger
And you don't mess around with slim

Shipwrecked In The Ighties
Well you fight like the devil to
Just keep your head above water
Chained to whatever you got
That you cant throw away
And youre shooting through space
On that river of life that youre riding
And its swirling and sucking you
Deeper on down everyday.
So you turn to your trusty old partner
To share some old feelings
And you find to your shock that
Your faithful companion is gone (so long, tonto)
And the truth slowly dawns that youre
Lost and alone in deep water
And you dont even know how much longer
There is to go on
Like an old holy Bible youve clung to
For so many seasons
With the rules of survival in words
You could still understand.
When they proved something wrong
You believed in so long you go crazy
And youre so close to foldin the cards
That you hold in your hand
Singing, holy toledo I cant see the light anymore
(hank williams said that)
All those horizons that I used to guide me are gone
(Im damn sure van morrison said that ...)
And the darkness is driving me farther away from the shore
(I said that.)
Throw me a rhyme or a reason to try to go on.
(come on, danny, throw me a line, baby!)

A Legend Reborn
Youve been fighting for much to long
You saw the future and what to come
Restless spirits out on the run,
Among the shadows of the sun
You are the rising resistance now
Weve come to show you a way somehow
Beyond the past and in secrecy,
We found it all, but we want more
We come from the age of chivalry
Metal machines, unchained and free
We are hear for you to see
Flying on wings of steel, thundering, we are breaking the seal
Fighting for the oath we sworn, to spread the word of a legend reborn
Moving silent like a gentle breeze
Were the troops of metal and we do as we please
We are the restless, we are the wild,
Burning hearts that never die
We are going against the tide
The hammer has fallen, a thorn in your side
Break the silence or take the fall
The mighty templars will take it all
Welcome the age of chivalry,
Were we all will be set free
Its the time for you and me
Flying on wings of steel, thundering, we are breaking the seal
Fighting for the oath we sworn, to spread the word of a legend reborn
Sons and brothers fight or fall
With our sisters and daughters
Were standing one for all
Flying on wings of steel, thundering, we are breaking the seal
Fighting for the oath we sworn, to spread the word of a legend reborn
Flying on wings of steel, thundering, we are breaking the seal
Fighting for the oath we sworn, to spread the word of a legend reborn

Toronto
Toronto is wonderful,
Beautiful.
Clean and mixed.
Very comments are made,
To stir up racial conflicts.
Toronto is magnificient.
One must go. Visit to explore...
It!
Has its own significance.
And those who choose Toronto...
Live.
In a diversity unique.
Note:
'Janice and I visited Toronto, Canada.
And stay in a hotel that overlooked city hall,
And the CN Tower-Canadian National.
There is one thing I noticed very quickly...
Most of the city gets busier after hours underground.
It has to be seen.'

Take me back to an easy life,
Robin Hood and Marian,
A lone ranger on a silver horse.
Make believe in a box of sand,
Bang, bang, we all fall down.
Just about dinner time
I'm eatin' bullets. Come on Fury - take me for a ride.
Rocking Horse. Rocking Horse
Rocking Horse. Rocking Horse
Sun down with a chorus girl,
Ragtime and whiskey pour.
Midnight in a rented room
With a key inside the bedroom door.
Bang, bang, we all fall down.
Just about out of my mind.
Come on Lily. Come on honey - take me for a ride.
Rocking Horse. Rocking Horse
Rocking Horse. Rocking Horse
Last chance for an easy life
Double down and let it ride.
Lone ranger with a silver bullet
For the one arm man inside.
Bang, bang, we all fall down.
Just about run out of time.
Come on seven. Come on eleven - take me for a ride.
Rocking Horse. Rocking Horse
Rocking Horse. Rocking Horse
