First Ambassador: The ears are senseless that should give us hearing,
To tell him his commandment is fulfill’d,
That Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead:
Where should we have our thanks?

We do on stage things that are supposed to happen off. Which is a kind of integrity, if you look on every exit as being an entrance somewhere else.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

The Super
When I was with a Shakespeare show
I played the part of Guildenstern,
Or Rosenkrantz - at least I know
It wasn't difficult to learn;
By Reader, do not at me scoff,
For futhermore I should explain
I was the understudy of
The understudy of the Dane.
Oh how it crabbed me just to think
They barred me from that role divine;
And how I longed to have them drink
A cup of slightly poisoned wine!
At every night with struts and rants
I strove my quid a week to earn,
And put my soul in Rosenkrantz -
Or was it haply, Guildenstern.
Alas! I might have spared by breath,
I never played the noble Dane;
And yet when Irving staged Macbeth
I bore a tree of Dunsinane,
And yearned for that barn-storming day,
Of hopes and dreams and patchy pants,
When Guildenstern I'd proudly play -
Or was, maybe, Rosenkrantz?

Never Give Up
Im a mine of information
Im a stranger to the cause
I been watchin you watchin me babe
But the words I had are lost
Just wanna be everything you need babe
And Im begging you to say in my heart
A room with a view
Theres only a fool there
I will never give up , never give up , never give up
I will never give up , never give up , never give up
I will follow you home
How can you turn me away
Did you ever get hungry or thirsty
With a dream to satisfy
You dont wanna be safe from being lonely
But youre throat is kinda dry
Did you ever get senseless or defenseless
An exception to the rule
Aint nobody pushin you but youre rushin in
And Im beggin you to stay in my heart
Whatever it takes to make you belong there
I will never give up , never give up , never give up
I will never give up , never give up , never give up
Love knows no other way
Being together and hearing you say youll be mine
Youre my world
And Ill be forever yours
Did you ever get hungry or thirsty
With a dream to satisfy
You dont wanna be safe from bein lonely
But youre throat is kinda dry
Did you ever get senseless or defenseless
An exception to the rule
Aint nobody pushin you but youre rushin in
And Im beggin you to stay in my heart
Whatever it takes to make you belong there
I will never give up , never give up , never give up
I will never give up , never give up , never give up
I will follow you home
How can you turn me away

The function of a briefing paper is to prevent the ambassador from saying something dreadfully indiscreet. I sometimes think its true object is to prevent the ambassador from saying anything at all.

Hearing Ears
These hearing ears. My teeth shine forcibly for you,
My fingers are there soon to outshine and out endure.
I am a drowning sailor of higher wisdom,
Waking up is difficult but we manage to.
My eyes blur from the acts committed by the souls
So darker, crying occurs, works of life are forsaken;
I pray to be church now, I pray to slip away
And derive overall benefit, waking up again.
They lick at my body, fulfilling me as I speak,
For I write wonder for the ears so hearing me.

The Deadly Game
Killing, killing
'cause men are willing
to follow in ways of the past.
Why? Why?
Why let it last
into the future
and beyond?
Thinking, thinking
thoughts that are sinking
into the depths of hell
Why? , Why?
Why let the bell toll for the dead?
Those that can't respond.
Senseless, senseless,
most are defenseless
to rise up
and say, 'No more.'
Why? Why?
Why must there
always be war?
Because we have been conned.

Why Not Me
Why not me
Is that I'm too ghetto for you
Why not me
Girl there's nothing I won't cop for you
Why not me
I'm here to give you all you dreams
I'm dedicated
No time wasting
I'll fulfill your every need
It ain't a thang
I'm far from lame
Girl it's all to the good
You're playing hard to get now
That's probably why you're by yourself now
But I caught your eye when you walked by
And you persist to try to entertain
All of them thing that you probably just heard
None of it's true and that' my word
Baby don't believe a thing you hear
The haters are always on my back now
But you feel me and this I know
So won't you just let go
Tell me why
Why not me
Is that I'm too ghetto for you
Why not me
Girl there's nothing I won't cop for you
Why not me
I'm here to give you all you dreams
I'm dedicated
No time wasting
I'll fulfill your every need
I'd like o think that I am a good guy so tell me why
Not me
Can't blame you though if all you're ex-
Boyfriends did you shady
But don't take that out on me girl
Oops I got to take it back it's your world
Baby I'm just that guy I'll show you why
If you just give me one try
I'm telling you I don't get down like that
Can't play the role
Or play myself
I just got to get in that's for sure
Got a little money
I spit game to the honeys
But your all a nigga needs
I won't give you chicken feed
Why not me
Is that I'm too ghetto for you
Why not me
Girl there's nothing I won't cop for you
Why not me
I'm here to give you all you dreams
I'm dedicated
No time wasting
I'll fulfill your every need
You should tell me something

Do The Sheep
Go to bed.
You sleepy head.
No need to stay awake,
'Cause your not hearing one word I've said.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
Oh no.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
Go to sleep.
Count the sheep.
Maybe your snoring will keep others,
From pretending they are dead.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
Thi s-I-know.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
You might as well pack up your ears with cotton.
The things I've said to you they are forgotton.
You've got me feeling like I'm rotten.
And...
Go to bed.
You sleepy head.
No need to stay awake,
'Cause your not hearing one word I've said.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
No- you-don't.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
You might as well pack up your ears with cotton.
The things I've said to you they are forgotton.
You've got me feeling like I'm rotten.

From pretending they are dead.

Nice and slow.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
And count the sheep.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
Go-to- sleep.
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-baaa-bah.
And do the sheep!

09. Do not stand at my grave and weep
when i am dead, i am dead
the world goes out of me and i out of it
there is nothing anymore in between
do not stand at my grave then and weep
for these ears will not hear, and these eyes will not see
and there will be only coldness in between
if you really love and care, show it all to me now if you can
for when i am dead, i am dead
the world goes out of me and i out of it
these ears will not hear and these eyes will not see
there is only coldness in between
warm me up if you can now when i am still alive
for tomorrow the sun may never rise again

For You, I Will
Give me but one to write upon
And I will write you a novel
Give me one person that hurt you
And I will commit murder
Give me but one chance
And I shall die for you
Give me one request
And I will fulfill your every dream
Give me but one kiss
And I will show you love
Give me your love
And I will go nowhere

Christmas is Sin
WHEN CHRISTMAS IS SIN
I do not say Christmas is sin
when it is not sin.
But I say Christmas is sin
because it is sin and no sin.
Christmas is sin when
fathers honours a day not learned.
Christmas is sin when
mothers test, the hand of their husbands.
Christmas is sin when
hardship become harder.
Christmas is sin when
the price of rice rises to rank
and garri grabs guts.
Christmas is sin when
man go drunk and
mothers give birth to beggars.
Christmas is sin when
silence knocks out the gun sound.
Christmas is sin when
men sees with their ears
Christmas is sin when
Tourist is occupied with naked women.
For Christmas is Christmas
as Christmas is an anniversary of the
crucification.
‘’If you love me; keep my commandment
Says the Lord’’
Who then can be happy for the birth of an enemy?
Christmas is no sin, when Christmas is Christ,
but Christmas is sin, when Christmas is crime.
