The Windfall
Because elvis gave 'em cars
You think i'm cheap
And you're hard done by
Look-you live here like a star
Rent free suite
Big blue pool that you sun by
Trips to tropic shores
Clothes from fancy stores
You want too much
You want too badly
You want everything for nothing
Going to the church
You chant
For my downfall
Chanting for my house
My friends
You want it all
The pillows on my bed
The visions in my head
You want too much
You want too badly
You want everything for nothing
In the land of litigation
The courts are like game shows
Take what's behind the curtain
The jury cries
I'm not going to be the jackpot
At the end of your perjured rainbow
Not if local justice has even one good eye
Oh it's not like i was blind
I saw
But i took no action
As you began to climb
Green clawed
Dissatisfaction
It wasn't hard to guess
That the end would be a mess
You want too much
You want too badly
You want everything for nothing
In the land of mass frustration
The judges are sleeping
Counting wooly little lawyers
And grinding their teeth
Outside my sleepless window
The hollywood sirens are shrieking
While down some searchlit alley runs
Some lost belief
Oh i'm tangled in your lies
Your scam
Your spider web
Spit spun between the trees
Doors slam
You want my head
You'd eat your young alive
For a jaguar in the drive
You lie too much
You lie too badly
You want everything for nothing

(n.larson)

Got a girl here tonight
Want someone new
Someone new
But little cry wants someone badly
Wanna know if this is a badly some need (? )

Ooh I wanna know
Am I sure that I have your love

This Girl
I want so badly to be part of her world.
She's more precious than an ocean pearl.
I wish I could tell her how I feel.
I wish I could really let her know the deal.
If only we had the time to chill.
Where did this girl come from.
And they say nothing good is at fort drum.
If they dont see what Im seeing then they're just dumb.
What is it about this girl.
Is it her smile thats so cencer and loud.
Is it her talk or the attitude in her walk.
A girl like this is hard to find.
You could still she her beauty if you were blind.
Man this girl really blows my mind.
I wanna make this girl mine.
This girl leaves me guessin.
I feel like this girl is a blessin.
So badly I want her to be part of my world.
Yet Im still asking why This Girl.

The Women Of The Marketplace
The black market was clogged
By the preoccupied populace
And there as I sat
In front of a kiosk
On a badly-beaten russet chair
That creaked everytime
I passed kinetics and physics
As I fancy my lips ajar with cigarette,
I saw women
Going in and out of stores
With paper bags and lavish shoes
Sprawling, lingering upon
Their silken skin
And I noticed that there
Are two types of women:
Women who leave
Without closing doors
And
Women who slam
The doors upon their exit.

Its Not Just Me
(jay demarcus/marcus hummon)
Tell me youve had trouble sleeping
That you toss and turn from side to side
That its my face youve been seeing
In your dreams at night
Tell me that you wake up crying
And youre not sure exactly why
Tell me that something is missing
In your life, in your life baby
Tell me that you live for love
That forever is never enough
That youve waited all your life to see
That you want so badly to believe
Tell me that its not just me
I could have sworn I saw you smile at me
Standing in the pouring rain
At a loss for words and running out of time
I said this crazy ting (crazy thing), I said
Tell me that you live for love
That forever is never enough
That youve waited all your life to see
That you want so badly to believe
Tell me that its not just me
Hold me now and tell me that you do believe
In a soul, a soul mate
And tell me, and tell me, tell me
Tell me that you live for love
That forever is never enough
That youve waited all your life to see
That you want so badly to believe
Tell me that its not just me

Your tongue is like a horse -- if you take care of it, it takes care of you; if you treat it badly, it treats you badly.
Your tongue is like a horse--if you take care of it, it takes care of you; if you treat it badly, it treats you badly.
Good government is known from bad government by this infallible test: that under the former the labouring people are well fed and well clothed, and under the latter, they are badly fed and badly clothed.

Strong Belief In The Self
i believe in
myself
i believe that
i have
something to
say
i believe that
i badly need to say
what i have to say
and that you
badly need to
hear all these
before it is too
late
and so here i am
speaking before
you in the silence
of my letters
pressed by me
fingers on the
keys
and now i must
rise to speak
twitting like a bird
not a Marc
Anthony to his
beloved Caesar
and now when i
am through i must
bow before you
and then
i leave
fully emptied.

Prayer For England
Sinead oconnor :
In the name of
And by the power of
The holy spirit
May we invoke your
Intersession for
The children of england
Some of whom have seen
Murder so obscene
Some of whom have been taken
Let not another child be slain
Let not another search be made in vain
Jah forgive us
For forgetting
Jah help us
We need more loving
See the teachers
Are representing you
So badly
That not many can see you
Let not another child be slain
Let not another search be made in vain
Jah calls the ones whos
Beliefs kill children too
Feel the love of you and be healed
And may we all cry too
For representing you
So badly so badly
Jah forgive us
For forgetting
Oh jah help us
To be forgiving
The teachers are representing you
So badly that not many can see you
Let not another child be slain
Let not another search be made in vain
