It Can't Be Nothing
Research and I
Are old friends
We go back
Many, many years
I absolutely love
Poking around
In things
Really digging deep
In sometimes dull
Or even pointless ones
But, I confess that
Looking into songs
And finding their
Hidden meanings
Is my favorite
Thing of all.
Sometimes, my
Research proves
To be a
little disappointing
Such was the case
When I found out
For myself that
The iconic song
Of the 60's
"The Sounds
Of Silence" by
Paul Simon was ...

POETRY ON MY MIND
THINKING
I got up this morning
With poetry on my mind,
So I sat right down
And wrote the first line.
I am not writing poetry
To see a book on a shelf;
I write for one reason
And that's to please myself.
I got up this morning
To face another day;
The words of my poetry
Started me on the right way.
I do not expect or need
The applause of men;
I have unlimited words
That are my best friends.
"What are you thinking?"
I am asked many times,
My answer to simple:
"I have...

And wrote the first line.
I am not writing poetry
To see a book on a shelf;

And that's to please myself.
I got up this morning
To face another day;
The words of my poetry
Started me on the right way.
I do not expect or need
The applause of men;
I have unlimited words
That are my best friends.

Too Damn Good to Be True
You guess I didn’t know a good thing
when it's up in my face
See that’s where you’re wrong
And I can't stand this pain
I guess it's inconceivable
Someone loves me like this
When you did me so wrong
That I can't stand your sweet kiss
You were the smile on my face
You were the stars and the moon
Where the sun in the sky
Now you’re the clouds in my June
There was breakfast in bed
I tasted nothing at all
Too damn good to be true
I’ve been hurt too many times
So I know when it real
I gave my...
when it's up in my face
See that’s where you’re wrong
And I can't stand this pain
I guess it's inconceivable
Someone loves me like this
When you did me so wrong
That I can't stand your sweet kiss
You were the smile on my face
You were the stars and the moon
Where the sun in the sky
Now you’re the clouds in my June
There was breakfast in bed
I tasted nothing at all
Too damn good to be true
I’ve been hurt too many times
So I know when it real

Slaughtering Song Lyrics / Unusual Remixes
Part 1:
Aladdin’s “A Whole New World”
+ “Reading Rainbow” mashup.
Books can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, honest, now when did
You last dream of books to buy?
Books can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic book to read
No one to tell us “No!”
Or question us
“You sure you need another?”
A whole new book
A dazzling place we never knew ...
Aladdin’s “A Whole New World”
+ “Reading Rainbow” mashup.
Books can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, honest, now when did
You last dream of books to buy?

Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic book to read
No one to tell us “No!”
Or question us
“You sure you need another?”
A whole new book
A dazzling place we never knew ...

That was my number
The story goes without saying
Absolutely Sweet Marie
To live outside the law you must be honest
Blonde on Blonde
Mr. Bob Dylan
Some say you’re dating yourself
I never let me down
The story goes without saying
Absolutely Sweet Marie
To live outside the law you must be honest
Blonde on Blonde

Practice Bars
Ya neck snaps as I grab your attention.
A head bang and a graphic direction.
My "techs clap" like an Apple convention.
Connects "hang" like a dangling necklace.
Some lawn work - "move green" like Hulk.
Got all the blue dream in bulk.
The chakra, Scooby in jolts.
Them kinds of clues lead to coke.
I'm "on the blocks" like a gutted Deville.
Still forming plots of the thuggery thrill.
My quarry rocks pay me utmost in bills.
Mind more to guap than a couple of pills.

Deep Cuts
.
.
.
I come from a time when we delved deep
Into a band’s L.P., Cassette, or C.D.
There was a ritual to opening a package
Then listening to an album in its entirety
The radio friendly hits were like appetizers
Songs which raised interest and curiosity
But an album gave a complete perspective
Discovering a recording artists’ virtuosity
In these deep cuts you’d uncover their talent
Compositions that displayed magical ingenuity
Hard work and passion poured onto projects
Into sessions where they showed...

Purple Reign
I do NOT own the rights to this song rewritten or in its altered state
This is so beautiful in harmony if you sing it as Prince is singing his version, try it, trust me
I never meant to cause you any problems
Or walk away with distress to the brain
I only wanted one time to see you smile and changing
Rapture while dancing in the bliss of a SweetKitty’s Purple Reign
Purple reign, purple reign
Purple reign, purple reign
Purple reign, purple reign
Only want to see you...
This is so beautiful in harmony if you sing it as Prince is singing his version, try it, trust me
I never meant to cause you any problems
Or walk away with distress to the brain
I only wanted one time to see you smile and changing
Rapture while dancing in the bliss of a SweetKitty’s Purple Reign
Purple reign, purple reign
Purple reign, purple reign
Purple reign, purple reign
Only want to see you...

Get Off My Fuchsia
Seduced by the night's scented fuchsia of high-octane
You may have a Smart Phone but I have bone
"Today's music ain't got the same soul"
Touched by your cricket on a Knucklehead Harley
Protein makes one "boogie on down"
Listening to "Old Time Rock & Roll"
Nothing gives a slice of life like profane
Formaldehyde doesn't bring any pain
Seduced by the night's scented fuchsia of high-octane
You may have a Smart Phone but I have bone
"Today's music ain't got the same soul"
Touched by your cricket on a Knucklehead Harley
Protein makes one "boogie on down"
Listening to "Old Time Rock & Roll"
Nothing gives a slice of life like profane
Formaldehyde doesn't bring any pain
Seduced by the night's scented fuchsia of high-octane
