Funk You Up

LA RISA QUE YA NO ESTA

Siempre es asi,vas bajando
A pudrirte con los gusanos 
Esas cosas hoy no son en vano 
El sueño es un sueño amargo...

Ese reproche volvio a tu lugar
Y lo cambia hasta temblar 
Cabalga en la noche lunática 
La risa que ya no está 

La lluvia llegó para mojarnos 
Espero que no nos parta un rayo 
Las noches son cómo un milagro 
Nos llevarán sin pedir algo a cambio..

Ese reproche volvio a tu lugar 
Y lo cambia hasta temblar 
Cabalga en la noche lunática 
La risa que ya no está

LA RISA QUE YA NO ESTA

This piece started again, as often is the case, with me experimenting on the organ. My daughter was intrigued with it when she heard me playing with it, and said it has film noir vibes, which influenced the rest of the composition as it gave me a target, a clear vision of where it was going.

Another version will come, hopefully soon, as a collaboration with some of my friends whom you may already be familiar with from other songs on my channel, which will replace some of the virtual instruments you will hear in this demo version with real instruments, namely, drums and bass, and probably add some additional surprises.

Releasing this version was not in my plans, but after hearing from three separate people that this version should not change, it is done, I have decided to release this one separately from the coming collaboration, so you can hear it exactly as I originally imagined it. Of course, I fully expect the collaboration will be better still, as it always is when bringing multiple talents together, instead of just me in an echo chamber.

I hope you will enjoy listening, and thanks as always.

Round and Round

Painless Moon Kiss feat. Martin Jansen & joerxworx

This is a new recording of an old song I wrote for my son when he was a kid.  He just got married earlier this year.   Time really flies.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy the song.

[LYRICS]
Make yourself a dream 
Sketch a vision to lead you through   
Set the goals in life and cast away the blues
Make yourself a dream though things aren't always what they seem 
Sometimes you'll find your whimsical moments in your dreams

Feel the magic in the songs 
Rhythm of life singing along  
Lovely things surrounding you 
Dreams are coming true
Bathe in the breeze of the morning sun
Fulfill wishes one by one
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will come around for you

Life is like a dream 
Full of wonders and surprises 
Needless to ask why 
All in the mirror of your eyes

Lines of hills clear in the morning sky 
Scent of flowers colored butterflies 
Rewarding opportunities are all there to welcome you

Reach out for the twinkling stars 
Stretch and they aren't very far 
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will turn around

Feel the magic in the songs 
Rhythm of life singing along  
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will turn around for you

Make Yourself a Dream

POVERTY FOR PROFIT WHORES
You got your section-eight slumlords
Payday loans nobody can afford
IRS tax return skimmers
Corp’rate middleman breadwinners 
Gettin’ rich off the poor, poverty for profit whores

CHORUS
They gotcha payin’ more for a low credit score
Get behind on your bills, get charged more
Gettin’ rich off the poor
Poverty for profit whores

Yeah, they’ll get you by any means
They be keepin’ people on kidney machines
Foster children funds stolen by the state
Privatization schemes at your gate
Gettin’ rich off the poor, poverty for profit whores, oh

CHORUS
Payin’ more for a low credit score
Get behind on your bills, get charged more
Gettin’ rich off the poor
Poverty for Profit whores

[Music/adlib]

Oh, and the bigger the monopolies grow
The higher food prices go
They gotcha financing groceries at the Walmart checkout
Miss one payment the usury leaves you flat-out
Gettin’ rich off the poor, poverty for profit whores

So, when you take a look around the USA
All that poverty is somebody’s payday
And you’re one paycheck from livin’ in your car
Jude stole it all from your, your cookie jar
Gettin’ rich off the poor, poverty for profit whores

CHORUS
Gotcha payin’ more for a low credit score
Get behind on your bills, get f*cked more
Gettin’ rich off the poor
Poverty for profit whores

We gotta eat the rich to save the poor 
We gotta eat the rich to save the poor
Needin’ more pitchforks than never before
Gettin’ rich off the poor, poverty for profit whores
Poverty for profit
Poverty for profit whores
Poverty for profit
Poverty for profit whores
Gettin’ rich off the poor
Poverty For Profit Whores.

Descending Points

Sort of an electronic remix of Dark was the Night by Blind Willie Johson...the quintessential blues song by the quintessential blues man.  It also happens to be one of the songs chosen by Carl Sagan for the golden record on the Voyager space craft, which has now left our solar system and is cruising through interstellar space...which is pretty cool, I think.
