tahoe nights.

People often ask me how I make songs, and the answer forever is it depends! That is the beauty of practicing the experimental art of creativity, it teaches us the paths to happiness are essentially like imagination, i.e.infinite. All you really need is a brave and open mind, and (more importantly) a curious and gratefool heart... 

"Donkeys Years" is a SHOWsutra Fanana Club EP (i.e. where monkeys & donkeys play), because it was inspired by a silly party chit chat that brought me joy in the moment—plus, British humor is deliciously quirky cheeky (like I like), and huh, well, it's true I'm a hardcore slut for new words and expressions lol. But(t)... it is also very much infused with FLOWsutra and GLOWsutra vibes (i.e. where trust & gratitude shine), because at its core, it is (yet another:) thank you letter, to music, friends, fun, and freedom.

🎵 DONKEYS YEARS

[Chorus]
Donkeys’ years, oh dears, oh dears,
Blacklight beats and ravers cheers.
Shake those fears and shake those rears,
Let’s dance on for donkeys’ years.

[Verse 1]
Desert dust and beachside bass,
Silly smiles on every face.
Trippy souls and jesters peers,
Dancing through the donkeys’ years.

[Chorus]
Donkeys’ years, oh dears, oh dears,
Blacklight beats and ravers cheers.
Shake those fears and shake those rears,
Let’s dance on for donkeys’ years.

[Verse 2]
Forest nights and valley drums,
Booty-shaking wisdom comes.
Finding freedom, in trance gears,
My monkey dears, my donkeys’ years.

[Chorus]
Donkeys’ years, oh dears, oh dears,
Blacklight beats and ravers cheers.
Shake those fears and shake those rears,
Let’s dance on for donkeys’ years.

[Glow-Out Outro]
Thank you, ravers, light and loud,
May we find healing in the crowd.
SHOWsutra bows with peace fool grace…
Now let’s hug once more, 
and meet me by the bass

Heart In The Room

Across the room oblivious
You dance like when you kiss
In that moment impetuous
Freeform and meaningless
You are in outer space - juiced by rocket fuel
An actress on a stage - just for the thrill

And here I am silently craving
Behind my eyes I’m going crazy
Cause I’m connecting
With a runaway downhill train 
Who don’t know what she does
I’m tied to the tracks - depending on you    
To open your mind - and hear the heart in the room  

I know that there’s a part of you                                                                                                                                That syncs with the whole of me
But I need your full attention
Give your mind that liberty
Cause you might find that you - feel just like I do
And all that synchrony - can fly us to the moon

Yes here I am silently craving . . .

Nothing like connection
A coupling eye to eye
Hearts beating one on one

Trouble

I saw kings and queens and horses and fools
on a black & white board in a game with no rules
high heeled ladies dripping with jewels
and beggars a begging with an eye that drools
I saw scenes oh man i can hardly tell
some obscene and bizarre mixing heaven and hell
a cold silent spring a white masquerade
in the middle of June a Halloween parade
not one pink elephant in sight
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
I saw a pale frozen sun as from the outer space
saw jailers on the run not wearing a face
blazes a burnin’ the old mountain range
hurricanes blowing like a mind that’s deranged
I saw things oh man you wouldn’t believe
it’s crazy what a brain in sleep can conceive
anger and thunder black turning to fade
the future a swinging on the edge of a blade
in the yellowish sky no unicorns in flight
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
I saw Jesus bad tripping alongside Broadway
some tarot cards reader having nothing to say
but also i found as i passed my way
an orphan baby sparrow and that made my day
I saw a film oh man i just lack the words
and the screen was as large as the entire world
watchers a walking in a state of stupor
wondering what’s my acting and who’s the director
but no bonze in the air gliding on a kite
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
I saw thousands of planes dead stuck on the ground
such a blast in an harbor it exploded the town
broken wings broken hearts in the port of shadows
a rastaman playing Piaf singing la vie en rose
I saw a woman oh man who gave me an eye
saying we’ll meet again in the sweet bye and bye
i got lost on my way and forced to the ground
i got caught in a loop like in 4th time around
down the pit did i see any flickering light?
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
I saw lovers and friends who could not embrace
armies of zombies looking for solace
i heard echoes in time from the sweet golden age
of parsley and thyme rosemary and sage
I saw you oh man and you didn’t look great
petrified like you saw a demon at your gate
and while deciphering as a riddle your frown
i wondered could it mean the whole world’s upside down
and still no pink elephant in sight
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
With some hopes and illusions tight clenched in my fist
i wandered along the old route 66
but trying to express all that i missed
it’s trying to grab a ghost in the mist
And i ain’t superstitious but i sure did see
a black cat in the night with eyes glaring at me
what i saw my friend was beyond belief
and i hoped that the morning would bring some relief
but alas alas what is life but a dream
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
And for sure not pink elephant in flight
In the dream i had last night
And the ones that i love i held them so tight
In the dream i had last night
And i enjoyed the past as a Turkish delight
In the dream i had last night
In the dream i had last night
