Hummingbird

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011

There’s a yellow flower by your bed
Sadly droopin’ it’s perfumed head
So you won’t smell it, I know what you’ll miss

And there’s a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
A hummingbird, a hummingbird,
Oh there’s a hummingbird singing.

There is the hat you made, the clothes you wore
Lying...

I’m Gonna Get Me A Gun

Saturday, December 4th, 2010

I’ve been demoralized too many times
But now I realize, Ah ah, no more.
I’m gonna get me a gun
I’m gonna get me a gun
And all those people who put me down
You better get ready to run,
Cuz I’m gonna get me a gun

I know my destiny is like the sun
You see the best of me when I have got my gun...

I’d like to live in a wigwam
Yes I’d like to live in a wigwam
I’d like to live in a wigwam and
Dance round the totem pole

I’d like to live in an igloo
Yes, I’d like to live in an igloo
I’d like to live in an igloo and
Fish from an icehole

I’d like to ride on a caravan...

Changes Iv

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

Don’t you feel a change a coming
from another side of time
breaking down the walls of silence
lifting shadows from your mind
Placing back the missing mirrors
that before you couldn’t find
filling mysteries of emptiness
that ysterday left behind

And we all know it’s better
Yesterday has past
now...

The Laughing Apple

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Slowly let me tell you a story of a tree
an apple tree,

Once in a summertime garden lived a little apple tree
and the man who owned it wanted it to be picked
so he sent forth to hire me

Well, I’ve travelled the mountains, and I’ve travelled the sea
but a never in my travelling days
have I ever seen a little...
