LIFE OF ONE - 

The setting sun ends the life of one says the fortune
The light that shines can guide you along the way
The road is always winding
With joyfulness and pain
He’ll give to you … then
He’ll take it away

Come to me and I’ll set you free says the dealer
I’ll take your mind to another kind of place
Where angels line the river
And satan hides in wait
He’ll give to you … then
He’ll take it away

So play all you sinners
And dream all you saints
You losers and you winners
He’ll take it away

Take my life but free my soul says the hero
Only the dead have seen the end of war
With glory of a victor
Lie scars that will remain
He’ll give to you … then
He’ll take it away

The setting sun ends the life of one says the fortune
The light that shines can guide you along the way
The road is always winding
With joyfulness and pain
He’ll give to you … then
He’ll take it away

So play all you sinners
And dream all you saints
You Losers and you winners
He’ll take it away

Angels (Music Website: www.bigbangzoom.info)

Sail me over the oceans to feel the wind and waves
Walk me down to the riverside to wash my sins away
Bring me up to the mountains to touch the painted sky
And give my love to the Angels in my life

Well I've never seen an Angel like the ones that fly
With halos walking in gowns of white
Or floating over me when I ask you for advice
But I know they been with me every single day 
Even if I didn't remember to pray
It's the only way I could have made it through 
Made it through this life

Angels by my side
Hidden from my eyes
I send you my love my Angel

Hey my Angel 
I know you're watching me all the time
I'm such a difficult man, I know I am
And hey my Angel 
I didn't mean the things I said the other night
I just want to thank you for my life
Such a wonderful life

Angels by my side
Hidden from my eyes
I send you my love my Angel

Sail me over the oceans to feel the wind and waves
Walk me down to the riverside to wash my sins away
Bring me up to the mountains to touch the painted sky
And give my love to the Angels in my life

It Just Ain’t Me

Before me stands a seasoned man  
He’s looking back at then 
With his weathered eyes and his leather-ed skin
 He looks me up and down again and again

He lost himself along the way as most old men will do  
And with his hands in his pockets like the rent checks due
 He gives to you his plea, it’s not true this man you see 
Well that just ain’t me

So how can this really be 
 Said the man standing in front of me
 I’m no longer who you thought I would be
 I’m not really him you see, it just ain’t me

The days he lost were beautiful  
Like something you find in a dream  
And the life he lived was rich and full 
Where love's like the evergreens

He lost himself along the way as most old men will do 
 And with his hands in his pockets like the rent checks due
 He gives to you his plea, it’s not true this man you see 
Well that just ain’t me

So how can this really be  
Said the man standing in front of me
 I’m no longer who you thought I would be
 I’m not really him you see, cause that just ain’t me

I looked at him to say my good byes
 He shook his head just one last time
 Because even with all his alibis
 He’s knows the mirrors just don’t lie

He lost himself along the way as most old men will do 
 And with his hands in his pockets like the rent checks due 
He gives to you his plea, it’s not true this man you see 
Well that just ain’t me

So how can this really be 
 Said the man standing in front of me
 I’m no longer who you thought I would be
 I’m not really him you see, it just ain’t me

State of Mind 

( For those people, when if unjust issues don't affect their own personal bubble, they can't be bothered to think about it, and make lame excuses not to! )

People say the strangest things
Looking for their reasons or their rhymes
So take another number and stand in your lines
Waste your precious lives
Spending your pay like the time of day
The world keeps turning round and round
I guess to you this life is just a state of mind

Just another day of tainted lies
Someone’s life was taken by surprise
So give me the reasons you sell them more guns
To take our daughters wives and sons
Look the other way its not for you to say
The world keeps turning round and round
I guess to you this life is just a state of mind

Its just a state of mind
Like the falling rain
Have we gone insane

People say the strangest things
Looking for their reasons and their rhymes
So take another number and stand in another line
Wasting your precious time
While children slowly die
So look the other way its not for you to say
Because the world keeps turning round and round
I guess to you this life is just a state of mind

Neverland - ( about a small town that is now shut down due to the recession )

Rain's are coming I can see the shadows of what was yesterday
Riding on through this lonely town under jaded skies of gray
Searching for another way to try and carry on
Looking for someone to turn to now that you have gone away

In the station they call your name but then no one turns around
Empty houses with no one there in this little one horse town
Searching for another way to bring us back to then
Looking for someone to turn to I remember when again

To me she was my Neverland a shining star so bright
Straight on til the morning and second from the right
From history she’s faded now and fallen out of grace
From memory she’s still a better time and place

Thing's are quiet now down the street where the children used to play
There's a sign in a window saying we’re closing down today
Searching for another way to find the reasons why
Looking for someone to turn to since the day you said good-bye

In the station they call your name but then no one turns around

My Honey Valentine

Well its been some 30 days now baby and some 30 nights 
Since my honey left me yeah on this sugar high
She’s a cold hearted woman with a no good devil mind
Well she’s just evil coated candy yeah my honey valentine

Well I been down and out now baby I’ve been up and down
I can’t find no sugar nowhere no in this here town
With a heart as mean as a demon and a blood like turpentine
Well she’s just evil coated candy yeah my honey valentine

My honey’s gone astray without a single word to say
Our love’s a flat line emergency where no one cares but me
I haven’t seen a sunny day only sky’s of grey 
Since honey went away

Well I can’t get no sleep now baby I got no money too
My life’s in pieces yeah you know my heart is too
Cause she’s like poison ivy roses on a thorny vine
Well she’s just evil coated candy yeah my honey valentine

Now I’m a looking high you know and I’m a living low

She’s a sweet little vixen with those satin eyes
Well she’s just evil coated candy yeah my honey valentine
She ain't so sweet!

The Postcard 

I was packing up some things you see 
In the old house yesterday
When I found a box of memories 
In a closet stowed away

There were pictures old and faded 
And a postcard never sent
At first I couldn’t read it 
But I knew just what it meant 

Although tear drops blurred the writing 
I knew the words she used were true
She found someone to love her 
And I know from what I read 

She loved him too, she loved him too


So I looked at all the photographs 
Remembering every day
From when she was this little girl 
And the games that we would play

She had ticket stubs and ribbons 
And a four-leaf clover saved
And a postcard with I love you dad 
From the day I gave her hand away

With her tear drops on the writing 
I know the words she said were true
She said it’s time for me to start my life 
And do all of those things
 
I want to do, that I need to do


And as I looked at all the things she had 
From all those memories past
At the time it seemed to go so slow 
Who knew that it would go so fast

Every picture a lifetime 
A moment held in time
From the symbols hiding in this box 
From this little girl of mine

And with tear drops on the writing 
I knew the words she said were true
She said the reasons why I love him dad 
Is you know because

He’s a lot like you, yeah he’s a lot like you

Wine and a Picture Show

Driving down the road on my Vegas vacation with the radio station playing on
Then they changed their tune to a heavy conversation on the problems that our nation needs to solve
They said come down to the rally in the morning
We’re gonna give you wine and a picture show
We accept donation’s so you can leave them before you go
Oh and don’t forget to give us your vote

I saw a sign saying I could win a million the slots machines were paying like a crime
They said that I could win a condo if a saw a presentation that would only take a little bit of time
They said come down to the lobby in the morning
We’re gonna give you wine and a picture show
We accept donation’s so you can leave them before you go
Oh and don’t forget to give us escrow

I drove by a sticky situation with the evil temptation that I saw
There was a private club a sexual haven where the girls were wearing nothing at all
They said come down to the ranch house in the morning
We’re gonna give you wine and a picture show
We accept donation’s so you can leave them before you go
Oh and don’t forget to give us your dough 

I changed the dial a different kind of station with another conversation going on
They got into a sort of heavy conversation eternal damnation for us all
They said come down to the chapel in the morning
We’re gonna give you wine and a picture show
We accept donation’s so you can leave them before you go
Oh and don’t forget to give us your soul

SAVE ME

There was a man died down on the banks of the muddy waters
They say he drowned washing down his sins and blues away
He told the preacher man I know one day your gonna find me
And when I’m gone on my stone put the words from this song that say

Let us Pray
Save me 
Jambalaya, Mirliton and a piece of Pecan Pie
And some Crawfish Etouffée 
Save me
A Whisky and Rye and some Zydeco to drink it by
Lets us pray dear Lord let us pray 
Les bon temps rouler

If you’re in town walk around through the graveyards of the city
Across the neutral grounds where the zydeco music plays
They say he’s playing there you can hear him if you listen
To the words on the stone that the preacher man engraved

Yeah it says Let us Pray
Save me 
Jambalaya, Mirliton and a piece of Pecan Pie
And some Crawfish Etouffée 
Save me
A Whisky and Rye and some Zydeco to drink it by
Lets us pray dear Lord let us pray 
Les bon temps rouler

They say he’s hanging down at the bars along the bayou
Doing a Cajun Jig or a Two Step Fais-Do-Do 
So if you hear this song you gotta sing along like I do
And drink a Whisky and Rye while you listen to the Zydeco

Dear Lord Let us Pray
Save me 
Jambalaya, Mirliton and a piece of Pecan Pie
And some Crawfish Etouffée 
Save me
A Whisky and Rye and some Zydeco to drink it by
Lets us pray dear Lord let us pray 
Les bon temps rouler

Houston Strong

She whispers to the thunder, she hollers at the rain
She trembles as a shutter falls and says here it comes again
It’s a Hurricane

Trees began to swing and sway, street signs started to shake
She ran into her mothers arms and said here it comes again
It’s a Hurricane

Mamma said you don’t have to worry child
It’s just another summer storm tonight
If the wind cries it's a lullaby we can sing in any storm
For the hero’s that came along called Houston Strong

Neighbors were helping neighbors, even the Cajun navy came
JJ made a call and then everybody started pitching in
It’s a Hurricane

She whispers to the thunder, she hollers at the rain
She trembles as a shutter falls and says here it comes again
It’s a Hurricane

Mamma said you don’t have to worry child
It’s just another summer storm tonight
If the wind cries it’s a lullaby we can sing in any storm
For the hero’s who came along called Houston Strong

If the wind cries it’s a lullaby we can sing in any storm
For the hero’s who came along called Houston Strong

Winters turn to springtimes, Summers turn to falls
Seasons turn into the years before you know its gone
Bishops Kings and Pawns when the reaper comes along
We'll be treated all as one when the game is done

Words become forgotten and memories fade to black
Hearts become unbroken when the futures looking back
Bishops Kings and Pawns when the reaper comes along
We're treated all as one when the game is done

Taking down the bridges will just build up higher walls
It moves you back two spaces where the Queen would likely fall
You need to cross the river if you want to win at all
Bishops kings and pawns when the reaper comes along
We're treated all as one when the game is done
 
Countries change their boarders and empires fall again
Soldiers follow orders but no one ever wins
Bishops Kings and Pawns when the reaper comes along
We'll be treated all as one when the game is done

Words become forgotten and memories fade to black
Hearts become unbroken when the futures looking back
Bishops Kings and Pawns when the reaper comes along
We're treated all as one when the game is done

Taking down the bridges will just build up higher walls
It moves back two spaces where the Queen would likely fall
You need to cross the river if you want to win at all

SKOPE MAGAZINE INTERVIEW: www.skopemag.com/2013/08/28/bigbang-theory

Lay you down and go to sleep 
And pray your only soul to keep
Every night says the mother to the child

Dream away my love dream away 

Walking down the crowded streets 
In a city of angels desperately 
Searching for their future to arrive

The angels say 
That heaven's just a cloud a way 
High above the city
 
The lights they shine 
Through the cold and lonely times
Looking for the answers that they seek

Dream away my love dream away

Dream away my love dream away

So hurry up and wait again 
And wonder if you'll ever win
You raise your head and vow you'll still go on

Dream away my love dream away 

One day you'll find 
Hoping for your peace of mind
It was hiding there inside you all along

I'll have another sunrise
To take my mind away
Another cup of coffee
With nobody but me

I'll sail along and take my mind to another place
I'll ride the wind along the sea
I'll take a stroll down Madison Avenue
Cause I got nothing better to do
I wonder what my mind will see with nobody but me

Mrs. Robinson smokes a cigarette  
Checking on her mail that's never there
The suits and ties they want to buy a new corvette 
While their secretaries wonder what to wear

I sail down the city
Where the taxi drivers sit around and wait
I ride the wave through the center of town
Watching people go about their day
I fly away in my mind with nobody but me

The traffic lights go from green to red
People sit around watching talking heads 
All the channels seem to be the same
Who fell in love or who lost the game

I sail along and take my mind to another place
I ride the wind along the sea
I'll take a stroll down and walk along Madison Avenue
I wonder what my mind will see
 
I'll have another sunrise
To take my mind away
Another cup of coffee
With nobody but me

BIO: Kristian Pedersen a.k.a. BBZ a.k.a. BBZoom a.k.a. Bigbangzoom
 
I'm an old cat with my roots from New Orleans that enjoys songwriting, composing, recording and performing my original and mostly acoustic songs. I am a self-taught musician from a musical family background.  I have lived in several countries overseas (6) and have traveled extensively for the past 20 years. In that time I have played in several bands in many countries, with musicians from around the world and have had the pleasure to learn from and experience so many talented people, musicians and exotic cultures, that as a songwriter, one cannot help but bring that into verse with instrumental expression through having the world as my playground in music. So my music is therefor uniquely written and felt with bit of country jazz funk boogie and often Floyd. But now I am a songwriter living out my retirement and enjoying composing my music 
 
As a singer, I sang in a vocal trio with Big Bands in the eighties with my Bro and even got to perform with the legendary "Tommy Dorsey Band" and once perform on the mall in Washington DC and at a private session in the halls of Congress.   Thanks Leif
 
My greatest achievement however, was forming and playing in a band in Kuwait called "The Human Shields" starting just around  the time of the Iraq invasion in 2003. We played gigs around the country from 2003 to 2006, but the cool ... was we had the privilege of entertaining the soldiers by playing at several of the military bases around the country..  In 2006 I moved to Indonesia where I was in another band called "The Tiger Kings" and we opened for several of the top name acts in Indonesia.
 
I moved back to Houston with my home recording studio, where I record my own songs basically doing all the writing, playing, singing and producing on my own, with the exception of if I need a really screaming lead guitar track, then I collaborate with my buddies from one of my previous bands to send me a lead track to add to the master.

All of my originals recorded as basic demos that i hope to interest other artists to record themselves and in their own styles and arrangements.
 
I hope you enjoyed the read and also have an interest my musical creations...
 
PEACE...LOVE...and ROCK & ROLL
