Happy March Forth
If you haven’t heard today is band nerd’s day
We celebrate with drill, music and dance
And though the world has been at a stand still
This summer, I know we’re taking a chance
I can’t wait to be in the stands with other fans
Cheering and shouting under the hot sun
So bring out those seat pads and cushions
Be comfy or else risk burning those buns
Oh, this ain’t your daddy’s marching band
The music is loud and the crowd is wild
Because for us hardcore drum corps fans
Each show is going to leave us with a smile
Me,...

Deserted Travels and Adventures
This is the place where memories
of travels and adventures come to rest
Where old and forgotten things
are left in the sun before they’re compressed
Here they collect dirt and dust
as scavengers come to pull them apart
Looking through the endless isles
searching for pieces for a new start
You can almost hear ghostly echoes
as the wind blows through the desolate rows
A close and near past that didn’t last
is pressed and imprinted on greasy clothes
When I walk through the lonely yard
...

Dearest Yvonne
I’m sorry we didn’t call or stopped by sooner
Whenever we were in town we thought of you
Now I feel bad that we didn’t have the time
But this plague took you away too soon
You took care of my boys, since they were babies
You showed genuine love like only a mother can
They remember you and your family fondly
Now as they’ve grown into young men
Perhaps it was the way you always had a smile
And how you helped us for so many years
You were a big part of our family’s lives
Now, all we can do is shed tears
You were always...

Brabble
Every time I come in here and hear this brabble
I ignore the horde of hard ignorant psychobabble
It’s a slippery slope when I hope to walk on gravel
Because then the idiocy slowly comes to unravel
It's rabble-rabble, but these turkeys like to gabble
Trying to get the last word in as if playing scrabble
Spittin’ nonsense like they’re ready to go to battle
But they fail to grasp that they too are the cattle
They continue to dabble in all this endless haggle
To get their point across but it sounds like gaggle
Sittin’ there all high...

An Easter Miracle
Jesus and Peter were walking through the woods one day
When they came up on a dead bunny on the forest ground
Peter said “aww, too bad” shedding a single tear feeling sad
Upon seeing the little rabbit, he had a near break down
“Don’t worry” Jesus said (you know he always kept a cool head)
He knelt down next to the rabbit and said a little prayer
Then from under his tunic Jesus took out a small bottle
Rubbed the potion in the palms of his hands and caressed the hare
Suddenly the bunny came back to life and sprang to his feet!
Wiggled...

On the Side
Her friend got you all hot and bothered?
There’s a certain thrill to get away with it
The pleasure’s higher when it’s forbidden
Then again so is anything that’s so illicit
Your heart will yearn to feel that burn
It’s a strange longing you can’t explain
Soon you’ll want more without concern
And without regard of any emotional pain
Betrayal’s a bitch when you get an itch
Trying to satisfy your need and desire
Hell, you’ll climax higher and harder too
Just remember, you’re playing with fire
Like to have something on...
