Fear Fear (1990)

Slippery Slidey

5am and the water slides on the pavement
slips like glycerin, shining to the black
shivering skin tight, squirms, withdraw, withdraw, withdraw
yellow and blue beams glance the scattered surface
Hard wetness, hard wetness, cold concrete hard wetness
splashing dead silence, alarms flood alarms
Leather soles, wet like skates
It's 5am, yellow beams shiver in the sliding air
close to you, stuck to you, it's all close to you
Tight and cold and wet, like fish upon your back
like fish upon your back

Slippery Slidey (with narration)

Thanks to https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx for joining in with the fabulous flute impro.

A "Zwiefacher" is a folk dance from bavarian and austrian regions. It is composed of alternating 3 and 2 bars and if you do not know the pattern, you need to listen... and then allow it to flow and trust your partner to do the same. If you can do that, your dance will be smooth and stable even in a place as small as a table - the eyes of your partner and the turning axis between you stable and calm like the eye of a hurricane.

"Listening" is not obeying orders. Listening means to be fully here and now and open up to the moment from a soft and flexible position of inner strength and respect. Listening is an energetic quality in Tai Chi Ch'uan.

You want to wake up in the morning
        D.                   A.             D.   G
with a smile to Your husband or Your wife
            D.                 Em.                      A.     A
and You want to see
               A.          D.       1/2 G 1/2D.  A D
when the flowers around blossom bright in the fields near the
                  D.           A.      A.            D.                Em
home where Your family always have lived and where You
 D.                           A.          D.              G
always feel safe
D.                A.   D.     D A A D A


You will never accept that the war machines
              D.           A.                  D.           G
may turn Your soil up and down
        D.             Em.              A.    A
to muddy ditches 
      A.         D.         1/2G 1/2D A D
we have however seen that peaceful people in the 
                      D.      A.     A.    D.           Em 
east now are suffering from a bloody attack from the

neighbor next door

The Russians have invaded the Ukrainian land
         D.                       A.                   D.        G
and the world is struck by surprise
               D.          Em               A.     A
since no one could imagine
          A.                      D.        1/2G 1/2D A D
that any people today have the guts to start a bloody
               D.             A.   A.           D.        Em
war and the suffering is great for the people who
 D.                 A.               D.                 G
live in this land

We have seen pictures of children who are injured in war
                         D.              A.                         D.           G
we have seen blood on their blankets and on their toys
                        D.                    Em.                            A.   A
it is so sad
   A.      D.    1/2G 1/2D A D
there are bandits who rule one of the mightiest countries that
                 D.                 A.   A.              D.            Em
we have experienced and a psychopathic man is on
 D.                A.                      D.                    G
top of this hell

*** Cobi M wrote this as an instrumental.  He wrote the title and all the instruments.  I heard it and loved it and asked if he would mind if I put lyrics, vocals and a melody to it.  He graciously said yes.  It was a pleasure - Cobi rocks...you can listen to the instrumental of this song and his other fine works on his SoundCloud page https://soundcloud.com/arom22



Looked in Your Eyes and Saw the Sunrise

Cobi M/DWS (2013)

I whistle after dark
when I’m walking home alone
I whistle after dark
to kid myself I’m not alone

I whistle after dark
to chase the Moon away
I whistle after dark
so the stars have no say

Then I looked in your eyes
and saw the Sunrise

I whistle after dark
‘cause I lost the will to sing
I whistle after dark
until the telephone rings

I whistle after dark
after the birds have flown away
I whistle after dark
‘cause I don’t know what to say

Then I looked in your eyes
and saw the Sunrise

I whistle after dark
when I’m walking home alone
I whistle after dark 
to kid myself I’m not alone

Then I looked in your eyes
and saw the sunrise.
