The clouds prepare for battle In the dark and brooding silence Bruised and sullen storm clouds Have the light of day obscured Looming low and ominous In twilight premature Thunder heads are rumbling In a distant overture...

A brooding haze has settled into my heart And left me shaking in my weary bones I never believed that it would tear us apart You let a new friend leave me standing alone

Those eyes... empty like a barren well. It was the only task I would undertake. To reap the harvest that was mine. The seed that had sprung into a florid meadow, and left me helpless in your embrace.

Sing as you raise your bow, Shoot straighter than before. No comfort has the fire at night That lights the face so cold. Oh dance in the dark of night, Sing to the mornin? light. The magic runes are writ in gold To bring the balance back, bring it back. At last the sun is shining, the clouds of blue roll by, With flames from the dragon of darkness The sunlight blinds his EYES.

Life, love, potential love Causes so much joy Has the adverse power To hurt you that much more It's the same dark that falls On the light that shines...

I know I died that night And I'll never be brought back to life Once again, I know
If you listen, listen, listen, listen close Beat-by-beat, you can hear when the heart stops I saved the pieces when it broke and ground them all to dust.

I, I came here by day But I left here in darkness and found you, found you on the way And now it is silver and silent, it is silver and cold You, in somber resplendence, I hold.

Make new friends and leave the old Sometime in your life This lesson must have been told It's true what they say, To have and to hold One is silver And the other is gold

I hear your voice in my head You're the greatest thing on two legs It makes me know how much I love you When you flash that third world smile It makes me know how much I miss you When you leave me for a little while

The last good days before you went to jail Visiting room pictures of you lookin’ frail Ma begins to wonder And when you got out it just wasn’t the same At least that’s what they call it when they give it a name For somethin’ missing

Go write your message on the pavement Burnin’ so bright I wonder what the wave meant White heat is screaming in the jungle Complete the motion if you stumble Go ask the dust for any answers Come back strong with 50 belly dancers

Confessor Of the tragedies in man Lurking in the core of us all The last dying call for the everlost Brief encounters, bleeding pain Lepers coiled neath the trees Dying men in bewildered soliloquies

T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair. But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and slipped away with her, her, her....yeah.

It ain't no joke I'd like to buy the world a toke And teach the world to sing in perfect harmony And teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars Hey I know it's just a song but it's spice for the recipe This is a love attack I know it went out but it's back It's just like any fad retracts before impact And it's just like fashion it's a passion for the with it and hip If ya got the goods they'll come and buy it just to stay in the clique
So don't delay act now supplies are running out Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive And if you follow there may be a tomorrow But if the offer is shun you might as well be walking on the sun

You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off of you. You'd be like heaven to touch. I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived. And I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off of you.

You know he got the cure You know he went astray He used to stay awake To drive the dreams he had away He wanted to believe In the hands of love
His head it felt heavy As he cut across the land A dog started crying Like a broken hearted man At the howling wing At the howling wind
He went deeper into black Deeper into white Could see the stars shining Like nails in the night He felt the healing Healing, healing Healing hands of love Like the stars shiny shiny From above
Hand in the pocket Finger on the steel The pistol weighed heavy His heart he could feel Was beating, beating Beating, beating oh my love Oh my love, oh my love Oh my love
My love
Saw the hands that build Can also pull down
The hands of love

"Bust it This here's a jam for all the fellas, try to do what those ladies tell us, get shot down cuz you're over zealous. play hard to get, females get jealous. Ok, smarty, go to a party. girls are scantilly clad and showin' body, a chick walks by, ya wish ya could sex her, but she's in another world like you was poindexter. Next day's function, high class luncheon. Food is served, and you're stone could munchin'. Music comes on, people start to dance, but then you ate so much you nearly split your pants. A girl starts walkin', guys start gawkin', sits down next to you and starts talkin'. Says she wanna dance cuz she likes to groove, so come on, fatso, and just bust a move . You're on a mission, and you're wishin' someone could cure your lonely condition. Lookin' for love in all the wrong places, no fine girls, just ugly faces. From frustration, first inclination, is to become a monk and leave the situation. But ever dark tunnel has a light, I hope, so don't hang yourself with a celibate rope...."

Now here's a little story I've got to tell About three bad brothers you know so well It started way back in history With Adrock, M. C. A. , and me - Mike D. Been had a little horsy named Paul Revere Just me and my horsy and a quart of beer Riding across the land, kicking up sand Sheriff's posse on my tail cause I'm in demand One lonely Beastie I be All by myself without nobody The sun is beating down on my baseball hat The air is gettin' hot the beer is getting flat Lookin' for a girl I ran into a guy His name is M. C. A. , I said, "Howdy" he said, "Hi"
He told a little story that sounded well rehearsed Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst The brew was in my hand and he was on my tip His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry he asked me for a sip He said, "Can I get some?" I said, "You can't get none!" Had a chance to run He pulled out his shotgun He was quick on the draw I thought I'd be dead He put the gun to my head and this is what he said,
"Now my name is M. C. A. I've got a license to kill I think you know what time it is it's time to get ill Now what do we have here an outlaw and his beer I run this land, you understand I make myself clear. " We stepped into the wind he had a gun, I had a grin You think this story's over but it's ready to begin
"Now I got the gun you got the brew You got two choices of what you can do It's not a tough decision as you can see I can blow you away or you can ride with me" I said, I'll ride with you if you can get me to the border The sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter I did it like this, I did it like that I did it with a whiffleball bat So I'm on the run the cop's got my gun And right about now it's time to have some fun The King Adrock that is my name And I know the fly spot where they got the champagne. " We rode for six hours then we hit the spot The beat was a bumping and the girlies was hot This dude was staring like he knows who we are We took the empty spot next to him at the bar M. C. A. said, "Yo, you know this kid?" I said, "I didn't. " but I know he did The kid said, "Get ready cause this ain't funny My name's Mike D. and I'm about to get money. " Pulled out the jammy aimed it at the sky He yelled, "Stick 'em up!" and let two fly Hands went up and people hit the floor He wasted two kids that ran for the door "I'm Mike D. and I get respect Your cash and your jewelry is what I expect" M. C. A. was with it and he's my ace So I grabbed the piano player and I punched him in the face The piano player's out the music stopped His boy had beef and he got dropped Mike D. grabbed the money M. C. A. snatched the gold I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's cold.
