I was inspired to write this parody (never ending story) after talking with my daughter about everything... 
It's hard to believe the lockdown is still ongoing and so much censorship, scare mongering, and unnecessary restrictions along with it... So much suffering is being caused by the lockdown here in my country as well as all over the world more so than the virus that has taken centre stage for over a year now. 
Video for this song can be found on YouTube at this link, thank you 💜

FIX TODAY (JunkHeap (c) Apr 05 2021 / Remixed/fixed Aug 2023)

Youtube video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxCJ314-GTg

Time travelling from this place,
I'd like to step through a gate.
Launched into space and time,
everything motionless; emotionless.

If today was my last day in this place,
that you and I lay to waste,
the tears would well up in my eyes, 
saying goodbye.

I go forward in time,
to see if we get it right.
Fix today. 
Not tomorrow.
Fix today. 

All I can send back is a brief message 
from the other dim, a text.  
No way to return.
I see the world burning.
Chaos and melting.
Just one little message. 
One little message.
I know, I know.

Fix today.
I hope we change
our destructive ways.
Fix today.
I hope we change.

Fix Today

And I Love Her

About a decade ago two things happened: I came really close to losing a family member to a sudden brain infection and my then-wife asked for a divorce. In both cases I didn't have an opportunity to tidy things up before the door suddenly shut. I wrote this song at the time but it took awhile to unpack the suitcase. As usual, I would much rather someone else sing this than me, preferably Harry Nilsson.


Well I guess this is goodbye
I won’t see you anymore
Your eyes are strangely vacant
You’re just staring at the floor

Well I swore I wouldn’t cry
Well I guess I’ve lied before
Lies are only wishes
We don’t believe in anymore

And if I hold your hand
Would you understand?
Would you hear me call your name?
Words to dull the silence
Nothing to dull the pain

Is this the last goodbye?
I can’t believe that it comes to this bitterness
Is this the way love dies?
Tossed out and hopeless
No time will tell, no fare thee well

If I could do it all again  
I’d be the one to bend 
I’d soften up my heart
I’d treat you like a friend

Did I ever even try?
Did I give it all I had?
The days that made me dizzy
Are the only days we’ll have

Is this the last goodbye?
I can’t believe that it comes to this bitterness
Is this the way love dies?
Tossed out and hopeless
No time will tell, no fare thee well

Open up your eyes so I can see you one last time

(Kick-ass guitar solo)

But it’s over now
And I don’t know how
To leave it all behind
I want to hear you say it
I gotta hear you say goodbye

Just one last goodbye
That’s all I need
Then I will leave
Then we'll let it die
I won't fight
I’ll be alright

Open up your eyes so I can see you one last time
If love is blind, I’ll close mine

The Last Goodbye

DAYTIME NIGHTIME
SUMMER TIME OR WINTER TIME
HARD TO TELL
IN THIS CONCRETE HELL
JUST LIKE A SHADOW IN A CLOUD
INSIDE THE SOLITARY CROWD
I CHOKE

FEELING ACTING
HAVING SEX OR LOVING
HARD TO TELL
IN THIS BROADWAY HELL
JUST LIKE AN ACTOR ON THE BLINK
I KEEP HAVING ANOTHER DRINK
A SMOKE

OH BABY
LET’S TAKE A BREAK FROM THE CITY
LET’S GET AN ASS OR A DONKEY
LET’S BUY A HOUSE IN THE COUNTRY
LOVE IN THE OPEN AIR

DAFFODILS BUTTERFLIES
CATTERPILARS IN DISGUISE
IT’S HARD TO TELL 
IN THIS HEAVEN SHELL
SO GOOD TO BE BACK ON THE EARTH
IT FEELS LIKE JUST A SECOND BIRTH
ALRIGHT

OH BABY
LET’S TAKE A BREAK FROM THE CITY
LET’S GET A GOOSE AND A MONKEY
LET’S BUY A HOUSE IN THE COUNTRY
LOVE IN THE OPEN AIR

WHEN YOU’RE ABOUT TO CRACK UP
AND YOU’RE FEELING SO LOW DOWN
ONLY A LITTLE SHACK CAN
PUT YOU BACK ON THE RIGHT TRACK

OH BABY
LET’S TAKE A BREAK FROM THE CITY
LET’S PLAY IT COOL HAVE IT FUNKY
LET’S HAVE A HOME WITHOUT A KEY
LET’S BUY A HOUSE IN THE COUNTRY

A HOUSE IN THE COUNTRY (Lyrics + link) From the album (Parenthèse) + Barbara Browning

My Escape

a little remark. I had finished the track with a recording of thunderstorm & rain, a didgeridoo jam, beat, bass, synth and additional  Dschembe percussion .. and wanted vocals :-) So I used that vocal acapella from a Ghosthack vocal pack, Melissa, Need You - coming to the point: I reduced the pace to 69.33% :-)) from 75 bpm to 52 bpm on a track in 104 BPM ! ... judge for yourself ;-) & have fun with this crazy combination of tribal and soul ... photo: Claudia Aran, unsplash - Manhattan

GRACE FLOWS DOWN

Don't underestimate 'em!

Here's a big one, folks. My first foray into TTTE Sing-Alongs. I'm really psyched with how this came out, it's one of my best pieces to date in my opinion. Enjoy!

HUGE thanks to my boy Jessie Ortiz for helping me out with the opening piano as well as some other aspects of the song. Couldn't have done it without you, homie!

I don’t mind if you use this music in your projects. No need to ask me, just make sure to credit me somewhere. Thank you!
