Nothing in the world is harder than speaking the truth and nothing easier than flattery. If there's the hundredth part of a false note in speaking the truth, it leads to a discord, and that leads to
trouble. But if all, to the last note, is false in flattery, it is just as agreeable, and is heard not without satisfaction. It may be a coarse satisfaction, but still a satisfaction. And however coarse the flattery, at least half will be sure to seem true. That’s so for all stages of development and classes of society.

Stare Out Your Window
She's downright into herself, it's so untrue
She's dolled right in so well, this can't be you
So come down, so come see
You don't want to wake and believe
You don't know, you don't dream
But somehow you make me so dizzy
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
Let me in
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in
Let me in
She's calling out to her friends, just give me two
She words right under her breath, they don't want you
So come down, so come please
You don't want to make me believe
You don't know, do not tease
Somehow you make me so free
I wanna stare out your window
You don't want to let me in

Turn Off The Light
It's getting so lonely inside this bed
Don't know if I should lick my wounds or say woe is me instead
And there's an aching inside my head
It's telling me I'm better off alone
But after midnight morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some
[Chorus:]
They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's till' I turn off the light

A poem
I cradle the travelers in their windy Birth,
My name is Mother....Mother Earth.
I Give them a bed in nature to lie,
When they hear that sweet lullaby.
I wash them in my rivers and streams.
Thier furtive flight is a product of dreams.
When the dream ends and they always come clean.
They thank me with colors and odors of fall,
And remind me to give Old Man Winter a call.
What am I?
The leaves inspired by,
The one who says,
'Semper Fi '
In baseball, you don't know nothing.

Jake
Now I know you've heard the stories
About animals who are smart
But here's a tale of a dog named Jake
Who was a genius from the start
Now, this dog could do anything
He could even add and subtract
He even starred in a broadway play
And, man, that dog could act
Now, nobody ever had to feed him
For, he was even a gourmet chef
Did I mention he was a teacher?
He taught sign language to the deaf
Now Jake was not an ordinary dog
He remembers everything he sees
He has a photographic memory
And even knows the names of his fleas

Sinatra
I cant move her
Obsessed with protection
This is a bad idea
She needs affection
What, me?
Drive around town forced to talk
Pass that church again
Wheres a parking spot
Its sinatras world
She just lives here
I hate everything as much as
I hate me
Whats the best for me?
She doesnt see me
I dont care
Just move around some and
Fix your stare
I had more fun
Took half the time
Cost three bucks, buy a magazine

Film, as far as I'm concerned, is my area of artistic endeavor, so I never think of a movie that gets released as being all done-it's just when they took it away from you.

Stay With Me
(michael masser/gerry goffin)
Stay with me
Spend just one more day with me
Maybe you can rearrange your plans
I know theres a whole new world to found
And its to that world youre bound
Put please dont leave me standing here
Stranded on the ground
Wont you stay with me
Stay with me
Spend just one more day with me
I cant bear to see it end this way
If I could spend one day with you
It would last my whole life through
And of all the nights Ive held you close
Tonights the night that means the most
Wont you stay with me
Just stay with me
I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful
Never thought Id see a night like this
