CATCH THE SEEDS OF PRODIGAL UNDERSTANDING

Song about love as a shelter against inclemency of life (translated lyrics below).

By means of some weather sounds, I oppose precise dark parts to more colored ones, with serious work till 3:25 when I had fun jamming, so you can skip to 4:20 & enjoy great outro !!

Clarinet was borrowed from my sister for summer practice. Reed & keywork managing is difficult for a beginner, & home cohabitance was set on serious risk, but with painful effort I got something presentable, or so I hope, as not willing to repeat soon...

LETRAS / LYRICS

ENTRA SIN MIEDO / COME IN WITHOUT FEAR

Fuera hay truenos; / Outside there are thunders;
entra sin miedo. / come in without fear.

Fuera hay viento; / Outside there is wind;
entra corriendo. / come rush in.

Soy tu refugio protector; / I am your protective shelter;
entre mis brazos estarás mejor: / whithin my arms you’ll be better:
ven a buscar mi calor. / come to find my warmth.

Dentro hay fuego; / Inside there is fire;
entra a verlo. / come in to see it.

Dentro te espero, / Inside I wait for you,
entra sin miedo. / come in without fear.

Entra sin miedo (No clarinet was harmed)

And so you leave without goodbye
Time stood still for quite a while
50 moons were damned to shine
Then you dropped by with a timid smile

We're on different roads, it seems
expectations, like haunting dreams.
You ordered some reflection of your own kind,
but he is somebody, not just a child

Your silence screams, your absence loud,
In your shadow, i am just a clown.
Finding your consent, always in vain,
tired of dealing with this constant strain.

And so you leave without goodbye
Time stood still for quite a while
50 moons were damned to shine
Then you dropped by with a timid smile

Funky as oily ass soggy french fries
Funky as stinky bass fishy pot pies  
Funky as poopy grass squishy with flies 
We be keep it funky and we shittin’ no lies 
Would it be funky if the bips didn’t bop, oh
Would it be funky if the hips didn’t hop, whoa
Would it be funky if the bass didn’t pop, no
Would I be a junky if I didn’t want it to stop, yea
He got blisters on his fingers and they starting to peel
He got two big blisters and it’s starting to get real
He gotta keep ‘em outta water if he want ’em to heal
Wear them gloves in the shower and when washing yo meal

Uh oh, who had the funk and then let the funk go
Uh oh, yo here we go, the funk is on the loose footloose and deucin’ on the flo’

Dip dip scoodley dip, cool whip all over my chips
Sippin’ on limp shrimp, wimps are the news skool pimps 
A plop a glop a top my new flip flop design
A crop a hops and a drop a slop for my swine 
Yo we got the flu shot that you got but we caught 
The new-dle two-dle funk crew-dle bug-adoodle  
Jibber Jabber don’t stop a hey hey hey a all day
Now come on over I’ll scoot right over and stay while Jon plays 
Funky see funky do funky spunky skunky crew
Funky rhymes funky lines funky crunky drunky times
Funky might makes funky right funky pluky dynamite 
Funky here funky there funky spunky everywhere

Wow, now that is damn funky, can you smell that bass, whew we, smells like burnt liver on hot summer day, Jon is on Fyre!

Why’s it funky when you haven’t funked for a week and then you start to itch ’n tweek 
And your knees be gettin’ soft ’n weak as the pressure reaches to a peak 
And a little bit starts to drip and leak  
That’s TMI
He got funk like pumpkins got pie 
Funk like bumpkins get by
Funk like stuck in deny
All funk like skunk ’n gettin’ high
Funkin’ til the day that we die

Uh oh, who had the funk and then let the funk go
Uh oh, yo here we go, the funk is on the loose footloose and deucin’ on the flo

The funk 
It be 
Booming
Out the 
Trunk a hunk a junk ol’ clunk a mine
A chunka chunka went the bass and I got a fine
Combine with my divine design, rewind inclined to be funkinsteined 
I declined, I tor’ it up in yo face 
You turned up the bass
That’s right, you could hear it all over the place 
Funky is as funky does do you has pizazz
Funky is too funky that’s true and we has en masse
Funky is what funky wants how does he slap that bass
We be keep it funky now common shake that azz
Funky like a rusty spike infection on my toe
Funky like a crusty tyke with boogies out the nose 
Funky like my musty psych with dusty old pillows 
We be make it funky ’n got the stank to show
Will it still be funky if we, what
Spayed it with some poo-pourri,  hell yea
Will it still be funky if we, what
Made it from som’in’ all bourgeoisie, hell no

That’s what I been tryin’ to tell ya, the funks gotta be made from something nasty, it’s gotta be inta something kinky, it’s gotta talk all dirty, breath be stankin’ ’n such 

Uh oh, who had the funk and then let the funk go
Uh oh, yo here we go, the funk is on the loose footloose and deucin’ on the flo

Yea, so what do you think Jon, you feeling that?
Oh yea
Alright, alright, alright, yo since you supplied me with that mad funky beat, I figured I’d go all mad scientist and flip what you sent me, and maybe you can lay down some of them golden vocals of yours
How’s that sound?
Sounds good

Well, the Couch King baby
Let’s turn the clock back to ’65
That’s where I like to hide out
It’s the place I really thrive
Well look out
Take your time now
This funk moves like a big fat cow
Yea, the Couch King baby
I tried to run but I could not hide
I tried to run 
But I could not find a place to hide

Catch A Glimpse

Mark says,
"Making music with Rodolfo is always exciting and often a challenge, although I know we both find it stimulating, as we always aim to reach high and this post is no exception. This new song, started its gestation almost a year ago, instantly showed a lot of promise and since has been through many stages of exploration and rounds of problem-solving. The painfully blunt lyrics were initially inspired by a friend's brutal relationship break-up, but the final result is much heavier. I hope you find it moving rather than disturbing, I was trying to match the mood of Rod's deeply dramatic music."

Rodolfo says,
"I think it's a fantastic song and you've done an amazing job on both the story and the vocals, especially those tough lines. When I was writing it, I just felt like a modern blues with a techno vibe was taking shape. The final sound was defined by the story and those really dramatic, emotional lyrics. You might want to make it clear that it's a fictional story to avoid giving our friends heart attacks."

We appreciate all of the kind support that the Soundcloud community has given our collaborations. Thanks for listening and sharing your thoughts, Mark and Rodolfo

Moments of stress,
How did you deal with the rest?
All that is left of you and me,
Is wrecked.
How can we expect,
To go on when there’s nothing at all left?
 
…Left in the lurch,
You should have done more research.
I was truly never a safe bet for you…
For you could have made,
A much better match than you did with me.
 
Open your eyes,
I promise you won’t be surprised,
It’s been there before you,
All along, all of the way…
…Way before you had sensed,
That we had got it all so wrong by then.
 
Moments of stress,
All such a mess,
It’s anyone’s guess,
How it all went so wrong?
Moments of stress,
No more nor less,
Need I express,
How it all went so wrong?

Count The Steps

Put on your blue shoes honey
Cos only you and I
Count the steps you’ll take
Put on your blue shoes honey
Cos only you and I
Break the codes you’ll make

I don’t want to paint the moon
A hundred shades of blue
I just want to sing this song
Cos it reminds me of you
Put on your best face

I could swim across the bay
To the distant clouds
Count the steps you’ll take
But I just want to be by you
And hold your Beatle’s hand
Put on your best face

Put on your blue shoes honey
Cos only you and I
Rock the fakes you’ll bake

I can’t help but see you
The largest rock in the sea
Painted blue
I know when you’re coming
The whitest cloud in the sky

I could swim across the bay
To the distant clouds
Count the steps you’ll take
But I just want to be by you
And hold your Beatle’s hand
Put on your best face

I could swim across the bay
Cos only you and I
Count the steps you’ll take
I could swim across the bay
To the distant clouds
Cos only you and I
Break the codes you’ll make
I could swim across the bay
Put on your blues shoes honey
Cos only you and I
Rock the fakes you’ll bake

Count The Steps

This little song is dedicated the United Nations - the hope for our future! 
A strong United Nations can save the world. We don't want this organization to be toothless! As far as I have heard, there are some big problems: Big powerful, not always benevolent states can veto certain decisions.  Decisions must also be made by consensus, which means that a few malicious states can stop important decisions.
I am sorry to have to suspect that at least two of our most important world leaders suffer severely from megalomania and paranoia.


Lyrics in English:
The United Nations

It began the Year forty five after
horrible six years of war
It was now United Nations was born
They said never ever more
will we experience such nasty days
several countries did agree
to say no to any war - on this globe
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed

The objectives were to keep inter-
national peace for all of us
and protecting human rights and to secure
international laws for all
and to deliver aid for those in need
but please, look at the world today
there are fights in several places around
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed

But how is the situation these days when
fires explode 
in many regions everywhere in north and south
It seems that several states ignore
what the secretary-general has said
even if the message was clear
he is a kind, and very honorable man
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed
we put all our trust that their mission will succeed

Lyrics in Swedish:

Kära vänner, denna lilla sång är tillägnad FN - hoppet om vår framtid!
Ett starkt FN kan rädda världen. Vi vill inte att den här organisationen ska vara tandlös! Så vitt jag har hört finns det några stora problem: Stora mäktiga, inte alltid välvilliga stater kan lägga in sitt veto mot vissa beslut. Beslut sägs också fattas i konsensus, vilket innebär att ett fåtal illvilliga stater kan stoppa viktiga beslut.





Förenta Nationerna

Det började året fyrtiofem efter
fruktansvärda sex år av krig
Det var nu FN föddes
De sa aldrig mer
kommer vi att uppleva sådana otäcka dagar
flera länder var överens
att säga nej till vilket krig som helst - på denna jordklot
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas

Målen var att hålla inter-
nationell fred för oss alla
och att skydda mänskliga rättigheter och att säkra
internationella lagar för alla
och att ge hjälp till de behövande
men snälla, titta på världen idag
det är slagsmål på flera ställen runt omkring
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas

Men hur är läget nuförtiden när
bränder exploderar
i många regioner överallt i norr och söder
Det verkar som att flera stater ignorerar
vad generalsekreteraren har sagt
även om budskapet var tydligt
han är en snäll och mycket hederlig man
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas
vi litar på att deras uppdrag kommer att lyckas

Prodigal Son

In the dark 
I stumbled blindly
Painful lessons
without you

Empty reasons, 
Endless deceptions
They all talked
as If they knew

What they lacked 
is now apparent
What they sold 
was not the Truth

I searched blindly
in despair,
Only to find you
waiting there

[chorus]
Jesus, 
You are the Bread of Life,
who believes in You has found the light
You are the Bread of Life,
that which endures to eternal life

I hungered and 
I was thirsty,
my soul was dim, 
my heart was weak

My sins were many,
I was fallen
It’s through grace
that I’m still here

I look back, 
my chains are broken
The pain has eased,
You erased my fear

Now it all fits 
so seamlessly
Those who believe
are forever free

Lyrics:-
Can you feel it coming
Somethings gonna happen
Can you feel it coming
Somethings gotta happen
Have a little patience
It's the art of waiting
For all good things to come
Have a little patience
It's the art of waiting
For all good things to come

Can you feel it coming
Have a little patience
It's the art of waiting
For all good things to come
Somethings gonna happen
Have a little patience
It's the art of waiting
For all good things to come

The Art of Waiting

The Art Of Waiting

Written 11 years ago: recalls the days when music was vinyl only and a magical retreat from disabling matters of the heart


33 RPM NIRVANA

Flattened faces pressed up against the glass
It’s well known no-one needs to ask
People talking ‘bout how I’m feeling
If they were me yes they’d be reeling
They’d need time and recuperation
But at night I take up station
Hanging around in 33 RPM Nirvana
Getting away to 33 RPM Nirvana 

She’s a stranger that’s her right to choose
Who can blame her she don’t like old news
You might say she’s one go getter
And why did she not treat me better
I admit I loved her deeply
But right now I’m kind of sleepy
Hanging around in 33 RPM Nirvana
Getting away in 33 RPM Nirvana 

I’m pulling the curtains and switching it on
Watching the tone arm lower onto my black vinyl

Drifting away now the music is my river
Not analyzing I’m seeking separation
Through the mists of time I wander
What is life I’m bound to ponder
Gonna get to shrug my shoulders
Moving on and getting bolder
Hanging around in 33 RPM Nirvana
Getting away in 33 RPM Nirvana

33 RPM Nirvana

The Seeds Planted

summer sunlight on the ground

it happens every day (to the chosen) baby
the wounded find a way hey

every heartache, every fear
just a mistake brought us here

the one that brings us back jack

into the weeds we’re going
spinning ‘round
but we’ll be back i know it
watch us now

hey honey don’t you know (don’t you know it) by now
you’ll never be alone, no

we’re grateful for today (we accept it) cherie
there is no other way hey

It Happens Every Day
