53rd & 3rd
One Two Three Four
If you think you can, well come on man
I was a Green Beret in Viet Nam
No more of your fairy stories
'Cause I got my other worries.
53rd and 3rd
Standing on the street
53rd and 3rd
I'm tryin' to turn a trick
53rd and 3rd
You're the one they never pick
53rd and 3rd
Don't make you feel sick ?
If you think you can, well come on man
I was a Green Beret in Viet Nam
No more of your fairy stories
'Cause I got my other worries.
53rd and 3rd
Standing on the street
53rd and 3rd
I'm tryin' to turn a trick
53rd and 3rd
You're the one they never pick
53rd and 3rd
Don't make you feel sick ?
Then I took out my razor blade
Then I did what God forbade
Now the cops are after me
But I proved that I'm no sissy
53rd and 3rd
Standing on the street
53rd and 3rd
I'm tryin' to turn a trick
53rd and 3rd
You're the one they never pick
53rd and 3rd
Don't make you feel sick ?
53rd and 3rd
come on man
53rd and 3rd
I'm a man baby
53rd and 3rd
your fairy stories
53rd and 3rd
have my other worries

City Sluts
City sluts
gyrate eastward on 27th St.
with their skirts high on their thigh.
They blow you a kiss
and lick their ruby lips
with their tongues.
And if you look like you’re game,
they’ll come close to find out
what you like to do.
City sluts
are waitin’ for you
westbound 42nd St..
They bleach their hair blonde
and wear black leather
with spiked heels.
And they talk dirty to you
cause they think you like it like that.
City sluts
are mighty confused
while wondering either direction on 53rd St..
They’re looking for business
but find sluts of the opposite sex.
But what the heck,
they call me over
for supposed directions,
as I cross the street at Lexington.
City sluts,
undo my zipper,
get me all clammy,
and hand me a $20
when they are through.

Global Pt. III: In The Spirit of the One World Man
I am faceless
My motives smell eerie
I grin with all races
Of no origin clearly
Lead roots to no traces
Hear foreign plights
So I outsource yearly
Never blinking or bat eyes in dark nights
I am careless
So I crave affection
And love from the masses
With little discretion
Throw stones at house glasses
My arms are a waving
In your misdirection
I love you like I love a plaything
I am heartless
My feelings are all void
But I’m never out of touch
I phone androids
All of the robots, tin men and much
Other soulless cyborgs
Or humanoids
I can wait to die for
I am tireless
Through the night and the day
I just keep rolling
Not one sweat do I break
With non-stop polling
To analyze each word you speak
Placed in context my way
From now until the 53rd week
I am power
I spread greed like a disease
Everywhere by the hour
I’m in control, yes indeed
And in speech, I’m a tower
I overshadow causes in the street
And overcast lives like a shower
I’m here to stay, secretly indiscreet
What’s yours is mine, but
What’s mine isn’t ours

Sherry Darling
Your mammas yappin in the back seat
Tell her to push over and move them big feet
Every monday morning I gotta drive her down to the unemployment agency
Well this morning I aint fighting tell her I give up
Tell her she wins if shell just shut up
But its the last time that shes gonna be ridin with me
(chorus)
You can tell her theres a hot sun beatin on the blacktop
She keeps talkin shell be walkin that last block
She can take a subway back to the ghetto tonight
Well I got some beer and the highways free
And I got you, and baby youve got me.
Hey, hey, hey whataya say sherry darlin
Now theres girls melting on the beach
And theyre so fine but so far out of reach
Cause Im stuck in traffic down here on 53rd street
Now sherry my love for you is real
But I didnt count on this package deal
And baby this car just aint big enough for her and me
(chorus)
So you can tell her theres a hot sun beatin on the blacktop
She keeps talkin shell be walkin that last block
She can take a subway back to the ghetto tonight
Well I got some beer and the highways free
And I got you, and baby youve got me.
Hey, hey, hey whataya say sherry darlin
Well let there be sunlight, let there be rain
Let the brokenhearted love again
Sherry we can run with our arms open before the tide
To all the girls down at sacred heart
And all you operators back in the park
Say hey, hey, hey whataya say sherry darlin
Hey, hey, hey, whataya say sherry darlin

Rhapsody
515 Madison Avenue
door to heaven? portal
stopped realities and eternal licentiousness
or at least the jungle of impossible eagerness
your marble is bronze and your lianas elevator cables
swinging from the myth of ascending
I would join
or declining the challenge of racial attractions
they zing on (into the lynch, dear friends)
while everywhere love is breathing draftily
like a doorway linking 53rd with 54th
the east-bound with the west-bound traffic by 8,000,000s
o midtown tunnels and the tunnels, too, of Holland
where is the summit where all aims are clear
the pin-point light upon a fear of lust
as agony's needlework grows up around the unicorn
and fences him for milk- and yoghurt-work
when I see Gianni I know he's thinking of John Ericson
playing the Rachmaninoff 2nd or Elizabeth Taylor
taking sleeping-pills and Jane thinks of Manderley
and Irkutsk while I cough lightly in the smog of desire
and my eyes water achingly imitating the true blue
a sight of Manahatta in the towering needle
multi-faceted insight of the fly in the stringless labyrinth
Canada plans a higher place than the Empire State Building
I am getting into a cab at 9th Street and 1st Avenue
and the Negro driver tells me about a $120 apartment
"where you can't walk across the floor after 10 at night
not even to pee, cause it keeps them awake downstairs"
no, I don't like that "well, I didn't take it"
perfect in the hot humid morning on my way to work
a little supper-club conversation for the mill of the gods
you were there always and you know all about these things
as indifferent as an encyclopedia with your calm brown eyes
it isn't enough to smile when you run the gauntlet
you've got to spit like Niagara Falls on everybody or
Victoria Falls or at least the beautiful urban fountains of Madrid
as the Niger joins the Gulf of Guinea near the Menemsha Bar
that is what you learn in the early morning passing Madison Avenue
where you've never spent any time and stores eat up light
I have always wanted to be near it
though the day is long (and I don't mean Madison Avenue)
lying in a hammock on St. Mark's Place sorting my poems
in the rancid nourishment of this mountainous island
they are coming and we holy ones must go
is Tibet historically a part of China? as I historically
belong to the enormous bliss of American death

All Right Now
( a. fraser / p. rodgers)
There she stood in the street
Smiling from her head to her feet
I said hey what is this
Now maybe baby
Maybe youre in need for a kiss
I said hey whats your name
Maybe we can see things the same
Now dont you wait or hesitate
Lets move before they raise the parking rate
I took her home to my place
Watching every move on her face
She said look whats your game
Are you trying to put me in shame
I said slow dont talk so fast
Dont you think that love can last
She said love lord above
Now youre trying to trick me in love
All right now
Baby its all right now
All right now
Baby its all right now
Whos that girl, watch that girl
Look at that girl
She lives down my street
Whos that girl, w-w-w-watch that girl
Well look at that girl
She lives down my street
I took her home to my place
Watching every move on her face
She said look whats your game
Are you trying to put me in shame
I said slow dont talk so fast
Dont you think that love can last
She said love lord above
Now youre tryin to trick me in love
All right now
Baby its all right now
Baby, baby, baby its all right
Baby, baby, baby its all right
Took me home to her place
And I watched the smile on her face
When she moves me
I just watch that girl, watch that girl
And she said, love, you tryin to trick me in love
Whats this now baby thats no good
Tryin to trick me in love
Dont do that, no dont do that
Dont do that oh baby
All right now
Dont do, dont do that
You cant do that, cant do that
All right now baby

Words
Girl, dont you know everytime I see you smilin?
Hurts so bad cause when I see you, I start tryin.
Try everything to stop but theres no denying.
Falling in love with you girl is just like dying.
Ohhh, dont walk away.
Ohh, how can I make you stay, dont turn away
I can still hear you saying those
Chorus:
Words that never were true.
Spoken to help nobody but you.
Words with lies inside,
But small enough to hide
til your playin was through. ah!
Girl dont you know we can work it out with talkin?
You wont turn around or slow down your walking.
Ive given you everything with kiss to seal it
You had to get your kicks with tryin to steal it.
Now, Im standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those
Chorus:
Now, Im standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those-

More Than Just A Fight
We fought,
It hurt,
He's mad,
I'm sad,
Don't know what it was about,
He wont tell me,
Expects me to understand,
Without telling me why,
Ive tried,
Cant understand,
It just makes me feel like crying,
Ive cried so much,
Its slowly tearing me apart,
I'm sick of it all,
Sick of avoiding and being avoided,
Sick of pretending that I'm okay,
Sick of complaining,
Sick of laughing when all I wanna do is cry,
Sick of tryin to be strong,
Sick of being so weak,
Sick of caring,
Sick of fighting,
Sick of crying,
Sick of trying,
Sick of it all,
I wonder,
Wonder when I lost him,
Wonder why,
Wonder how this mess started,
Wonder when it will end,
Wonder if the friendship will survive this,
Wonder if Ill survive this,
He says I'm clingy,
Says I talk too much,
Says I need to get a boyfriend,
Says I need to leave him alone,
Says he doesn't care that it hurts me,
I say he's changed,
He says he hasn't.

Didn't Mean To Turn You On
When I took you out
I knew what you were all about
But when I did
I didn't mean to turn you on
Now I bring you home
You tell me the night's not enough for you
I'm sorry, baby
I didn't mean to turn you on
Woah, baby, I didn't mean to turn you on
You read me wrong
I wasn't tryin' to lead you on
Not like you think
I didn't mean to turn you on
I know you
Expected a one-night-stand when I refused
I knew you wouldn't understand
I'm sorry, baby
I didn't mean to turn you on
I told you twice
I was only tryin' to be nice
Only tryin' to be nice
Oh, I didn't mean to turn you on
Hey, now why should I
Feel guilty 'cause I won't give
Guilty 'cause I won't give in
I didn't mean to turn you on
Woah, baby, I didn't mean to turn you on
When I took you out
I knew what you were all about
But when I did
I didn't mean to turn you on
Woah, baby, I didn't mean to turn you on

Feel guilty cause I won't give
Guilty cause I won't give in

You think that I'm a fool
Cause I wouldn't play by your rules
(I didn't mean to turn you on)
You don't stand a chance
All I want to do is dance with you
(I didn't mean to turn you on)
I told you twice
I was only tryin' to be nice

I loved you for a friend
But I guess this is the
End of our relationship
Cause I didn't mean to turn you on

Be A Lion
(charlie smalls)
There is a place well go
Where there is mostly quiet
Flowers and butterflies
A rainbow lives beside it
And from a velvet sky
A summer storm
You can feel the coolness in the air
But youre still warm
And then a mighty roar
Will start the sky to cryin
But not even lightning
Will be frightening my lion
And with no fear inside
No need to run
No need to hide
Youre standing strong and tall
Youre the bravest of them all
If on courage you must call
Then just keep on tryin
And tryin, and tryin
Youre a lion
In your own way, be a lion
Come on be a lion
I am standing strong and tall
Youre the bravest of them all
If on courage you must call
Keep on tryin
And tryin, and tryin
Im a lion
In my own way
Im a lion
A lion
A lion

Sick With The Music
Flick your Bic to the Music.
Don't you know how to get
sick with the music.
Do a high kick to the music.
Twirl a walking stick to the music.
tweak and wreak with the music.
Have mystique with the music.
Make it slick with the music.
I'm all the way sick with the music.
run a pick with the music,
do a trick with the music.
quick as a finger prick with the music.
are you ready to click
with the music? There we go,
what do you know?
Now, we're all the way sick
with the music.

With Me
Sometimes I feel just like a fly in a soup bowl
Sometimes I feel like Im on top of a heap
Sometimes I feel like Im the king of the castle
Sometimes I feel like just a bump on a street
I got my highs and lows
Some days its touch and go
But baby, this I know
When youre with me
I feel like singing
Its like Im swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin
Its like youre sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away
When youre with me
You are a lazy summer day on a porch swing
You are a night running wild on the town
My red ferrari racing me down a back street
My pick-me-up when Im a little bit down
No matter where I go, whatever dice I roll
Baby, this I know
When youre with me
I feel like singing
Its like Im swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin
Its like youre sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away
When youre with me
I got my highs and lows
No matter where I go
But baby, this I know
When youre with me
I feel like singing
Its like Im swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me

Its like youre sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away

Fairy tale gone wrong?
It began like a fairy tale
A woman and a male
Out of two different cultures
In search for adventures
They truly liked each other
A smile followed another
Where did the fairy tale go wrong
Can you tell me just this one
It has been about six weeks
That I feel misery so strong
that she seems to be gone
that my ship has some leaks
Why did the fairy tale turn false
I know that she truly likes me
The only thought that consoles
but as long as I don’t see
her smiling face again
only pain does remain
Do you remember the old fairy tales
Can you see the story that never fails
To show you that love always wins
Whatever difficulties or hard sins
For us a hard time seems worse enough
Just six weeks do seem much too tough
Where did this fairy tale go bad
Why do the last weeks turn me mad
It’s a story that makes me sad
Only you could make me glad

There Stands A Woman
Behind every great man there stands a woman
I have heard that time after time before
Standing behind him and keeping him strong
There is a woman who is opening life's door.
Though I myself am not a great man
And a great man I might not ever be
But in my soul and mind I feel like a great man
As you are there always standing behind me.
When I fall you are there to catch me
Or you will pick me up when I hit the ground
You make me happier than I can ever speak
And because of you, you make me heaven bound.
You are behind me to fix my hair or straiten my tie
When I leave the house each and everyday
You give me the confidence to keep me believing
As without you, inside our home I would stay.
When I make a mistake you tell me not to worry
And when I cry you are there to wipe away my tears
You are there to listen to my worries and my problems
And you are there to help me fight my own fears.
You give me the support when others would reject me
And the hope I need when I am not sure of myself
You are there with the uplifting words to move me along
You are my riches, and you are my wealth.
Behind every great man there stands a woman
I don't know if that statement happens to be true,
But whenever that I look into my mirror,
Behind me; there is always standing you.
