The Assignment Sequence
Hendin
The assignment the assignment okay
Not too loud now not too loud
The song is called the assignment
Talks about the lover's gap
Tha gap between lovers
Especially in marriage and other forms
Bouncing off your wall
Tha pathways of my mind
Are on their way
Another way for today
You want me to see you
Baby I cannot see you
You want me to come for you
I cannot come for you
Cos you wany an assignment
I see no concession
Sall I hang my head with yours and be blue
Send alway laughter and fun
Spend all my time thinking about you
Don't you know there are things I can't do for you
My mind is on its way
Another way for today
My spirit is so foreign
You want silence
My spirit id taking flight now
But baby you're in a mood
And you wanna cry tonight now
Shall I hang my head with yours and be blue
That's what you want me to do
Send away laughter and fun
Spend my time crying
Trying to please you
Oh don't you know
There are things I can't do for you
My mind is on its way
Another way now for today

Bored With School
I became extremely bored with school,
At an early age.
I felt I was watched and scrutinized,
Unnecessarily.
AND...
I told my 5th grade teacher this.
AFTER given an assignment,
To write an essay...
Right there in the classroom.
I felt her hawkish eyes on me,
Like I was prey.
And she couldn't wait to see,
What I had written.
'Uh...
Mr. Pertillar?
Why are you looking out the window.
I've given all of you students an assignment.'
~I'm done.~
'That's impossible.'
~You've asked us to write an assignment...
And...
With an 'a' and a 'd' surrounding an 'n'
I said,
I was done! ~
'You are a fresh mouth little boy.
Bring to me your work.'
~And there are no spelling errors.
I check it.~
'Interesting.
Very 'adult' in expression.
But this is a 5th grade assignment.
And YOU are getting a 'C'.'
~A 'C'? ~
'Open your mouth again,
And it will become a 'D'.'

The Last Sonnet
There are many challenges that I have seen
not many are as odd as this one is
to this challenge I am not very keen
I would much rather get a final quiz
The assignment is an anthology
so many poems to put into it
please Easton send me to biology
if someone sold one I would buy a kit
I say the worst part of this assignment
Is writing a original sonnet
This makes my brain go out of alignment
to not do it can I move to Monett
This, the last sonnet I will ever do
is now being enjoyed right now by you.

You've Been On My Mind
(Rodney Crowell)
Guess it's time for me to say
Just how it is that I feel today
Today is just like any other day
'Cause you've been on my mind.
It really hasn't been that long
But it's funny where the time has flown
Mem'ries just keep holding on
And you been on my mind.
You been on my mind
Aometimes I think I must be going blind
I've seen a world baby, without you
But I don't see myself there too.
Hardly does a day go by
When I don't see your clear blue eyes
Many nights I just wonder why
And you been on my mind.
--- Instrumental ---
You've been on my mind so long
I've been thinking that something was wrong
I've told myself I should forget
But I don't seem to have it yet.
I don't dream that you might change
I don't think that I'm acting strange
I tell myself it's all in vain
And you been on my mind.
You've been on my mind I've said
Till it's all that's in my head
Yes, I know what I must do
But I don't think you'll be there too.
Guess it's time for me to go
But as it is I'll never know
Just what it is that I long for so
And you been on my mind...

Elevator Up
Slim and tall behind me
Spinnin' me off of my feet
Headin' for the D
We're taking our act to the street
Roll around the city, leavin' our tracks on the ground
Elevator up
Baby I don't wanna come down
Hangin' with sinners
The undesirable crowd
Tokin' on the train
Playin' our radio loud
Got a sweet need for speed that doesn't know no bounds
Elevator up
Baby I don't wanna come down
Spend a little time in the back of my mind
Now it may be time to pay up to go
I've done it
I've had it
I'm ready for bed
Anywhere at all
Any way the wind blows
Say hello to Molly
She's got a sister as well
Such a pleasant girl
As far as your family can tell
Hold the camera steady, turn the shutter speed way down
Elevator up
Baby I don't wanna come down
Spend a little time in the back of my mind
Now it may be time to pay up and go
I've done it
I've had it
I'm ready for bed
Anywhere at all
Any way the wind blows
Spend a little time in the back of my mind
Now it may be time to pay up and go
I've done it
I've had it
I'm ready for bed
Anywhere at all

Send Me
Cafe cats are waiting
Loves anticipating
Coffee steaming on a rainy day
Couldnt stay at home
All those souls alone
Dropping by and looking for
Another taste
See you smiling from across the bar
Take a little wine - have a good time
Lets see
Are you waiting for the night
To start
Baby Ill come around if youre
Here for me
Youre so lovely
So lovely
Let me know if you want me
Baby come on
Send me the night
Send me whats right
Send me your guiding light
Send me the love
Send me your groove
Send me your velvet mood
Send me smooth
Send me your love
Maybe loves in bloom
Like an old sly tune
We can spin the words
Around the moon
Mind and body met
Heaven starts to sweat
Ecstasy forgets about staying cool
Not just one more night out
On the town
Breaking down
All thats gone before
Feeling things I thought were
Long passe
Coming around again
Coming on today
Baby nothing ventured
Nothing learned
Theres no way to fake it
Baby can we take it
Send me the night
Send me whats right
Send me your guiding light
Send me the love
Send me your groove
Send me your velvet mood
Send me smooth
Send me your love
Send me your kiss
Send me another wish
Send me this
Send me your love
Send me your smile
Send me just an ounce of style
Send me baby send
Send me your love
Maybe this is how were
Meant to stay
I wont stop until you
I wont drop until you
Make me make me
Baby baby baby baby
Send me

The Calling
God has a divine purpose for you
He has an assignment designed just for you
It is not hard to figure it out
All you have to do
Is think of what you enjoy doing
That brings joy to another
Always remember God
Will not have you do
Something where His praises are not due
This is the truth
All you have to do
Is refer to Psalms 148 149 150
To name a few
Which ever one you chose
Take your pick
God has a calling for you
Will you accept it
What will you do
When God beings you home
And He asks you
Why didn't you use
The gift the was for you
What will be your excuse
You have a calling
The time is now
People are counting on you
You know the ones'
Who's lives you are meant to touch
Do you hear that sound
It your assignment ringing
Answer it it's your calling

Ocean Blue
Taking some time in the still
Memories lead me far away
The sun is dancing on the sea
I thank the gods for today
Ocean blue
Blue, my sky
Spell of you
Colours my mind
Floating in time
Thinking of you
Ocean blue
Giving in to my questions
The silence shows me the way
Making my mark on tomorrow
Doing nothing today
Ocean blue
Blue, my sky
Spell of you
Colours my mind
Floating in time
Thinking of you
Ocean blue
Living and dreaming, always believing
Living and dreaming, always believing
Ocean blue
Blue, my sky
Spell of you
Colours my mind
Floating in time
Thinking of you
Ocean blue

Some Things Never Change
Some things never change
Hang your head
I saw the news today o boy
A thousand stories that weve seen before
Small minds play at some big time games
And everybody else pays
Make no mistake theyre on the take
They like to keep it that way
Some things never change
I saw the light today o boy
It come on flashing bright in red and blue
The man steps in with a terminal grin
Blue skies turn to grey
Young men die and children cry
Why is it always the same
Life must be eaten
Or at least bitten into
To get past the surface
The moment of truth
You know when its right
Its sweet deep inside
Its real and its better
That some things dont change
I saw the news today o boy
A thousand pictures of the lies we live
Small minds play at some big time games
And everybody else pays
Theyre on the take and they dont give breaks
They like to take it away
Some things never change
Hang your head

Today I sat…
Today I sat
By a quiet lake
Listening to the water lap upon the shore
I let my mind wander on lands and things yet to explore
Today I sat
Sheltered by an ancient pine
Bent and cracked by a long forgotten storm
I closed my eyes and let my spirit transform
Today I sat
On an old stone wall
Watching the birds fly by
And I did and thought nothing at all
Today I sat
And watched the children at play
Carefree and happy no worries around
No better way to spend the day
Today I sat
And watched the flowers grow
Their quiet struggle to survive
Made my heart glow
Today I sat…

Don't Hang Up The Phone
I miss those day when you called me late at night,
I know you sleepy but you say its alright,
We talk from night to morn,
Still don't wish to hang up the phone,
You say baby i wanna talk some more,
Even if nothing else to say,
Just wanna stay awake,
Don't wanna take a break,
Oh no baby, Don't wanna hang up the phone,
Just wanna talk some more,
Baby just few minutes more,
Just wanna be with you some more...
I know baby we gotta college to go,
But this is our time, i wanna be with you some more,
I know its too late tonigth,
Dreams awaiting for us to close our eyes,
But i don't wanna dream no,
Just wanna be with you some more,
Ohh baby just don't hang up the phone,
I need you some more,
Baby wanna talk some more,
Just wanna be with you some more,
Baby just don't hang up the phone...
Just wanna be with you,
Just wanna hear you say you love me too,
Just wanna share this night with you,
Coz i wanna stay alone with you,
Coz its the only time, alone i can be with you,
Just wanna share this nitght with you...
Oh no baby, Don't wanna hang up the phone,
Baby just need to be with you, just talk some more,
Oh no baby, Don't wanna hang up the phone,
Coz it's the only way i can be with you some more,
Just wanna hear from you some more,
Baby just wanna be with you some more,
Baby just don't hang up the phone...

So Blue
I had everything I needed,
But now my life is so blue
You meant the world to me,
But now youre gone and Im so blue
And even though the sun is shining,
I spend my day, I spend my day crying over you
I spend my day crying over you
I, oh I feel just like the sky
Im so blue
Oh baby, doncha know... baby doncha know
I spend my nights all alone
Talking to myself
I am so blue
And everyday the feelin gets stronger
And whos to say just how much longer
I can spend my nights all alone
Talkin to myself and just-a cryin over you
I guess Ill just spend my life so...
So blue

Today is wine, and tomorrow is an assignment. Today we will drink wine, and tomorrow we will work hard.
The Blame Game
The mouse ate up my assignment
The snake ate up the mouse
The eagle ate up the snake and flew high above the heads
Inspiring and impetus
A hazy lapse
And the sky ate up the eagle
Then what?
The fumes ate up the sky
The fumes cultivated from our desires and greed
Outgrowing and blazing
Then what?
I ate up the fumes
Sedated and rejuvenated
All set to get back on track
A midnight lapse
And the assignment ate me up!

Busy Signal
By: dolly parton
Busy signal
Thats what I get when I call you
Busy busy
Talking to someone new
I wish I knew
I shouldnt worry cause its probably his mother
Or then again it could even be his little brother
On the line
Making me lose my mind
Hang up hang up hang up hang up
Come on hang up hang up hang up
Gotta talk to my baby
Gotta tell him Im sorry
Busy signal
How can I tell him Im sorry
When I said I didnt care
I didnt mean a word I said
Talking outta my head
Ive got to reach him now and tell him that I love him
And from now on Ill stay right by his side and love him
All the time
So please somebody quit tying up the line
Hang up hang up hang up hang up
Come on hang up hang up hang up
Gotta talk to my baby
Gotta tell him Im sorry
I didnt mean to hurt you baby
I really really love you baby
