OUT IN THE COLD

you might see me comin 
in a black Cadillac//diamonds and pearls baby 
and my guitar on my back
if you see me comin don't be afraid//take my hand baby
Im the guitar man 
Im gonna rock n roll over you//like you want me to

GUITAR MAN

I'm sorry y'all--this is another downer of a song with preachy lyrics but it's an idea that came up and demanded to be completed. 

The only side I take is the human one, but I couldn't have more contempt for the ostensible leaders of both Gaza and Israel who seek their own interests at the cost of so much suffering among innocents. Nothing good comes out of "Let's go kill some people."



You Let This Happen

have you understood that this is the final warning call
abandon hope all those that linger here

you lived the diamond life and could not lend your ears
and now the sand is wet with blood beyond our wildest fears 
how could you let this happen here

we plant the seeds of death beside the seeds of life 
so they can pay the price and have the will to fight

the bloodied face that no one could identify
now here's the news that was a mother's precious baby
how could you let this happen here

so how do you think this story ends
when it begins with the death of innocents
another thousand years of war is in the cards
another generation with daggers in their hearts

and you let it happen

You Let This Happen

When you were 5
A day was a dream
Sugar and Sundays
And custard creams

D’you think time did it’s work
Did it steal your youth?
Here is the answer
Here is the truth

You think the night is coming
It’s just around the bend
The way your thinking
Is not the way it ends

You’re hot and sexy
You’re the best thing alive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5
You’re not loosing a lifetime
You’re leading the drive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5

10 x 5
10 x 5

Come the morning
Come the sun
Come the daylight
For everyone
Come the evening
Come the moon
Come the party
Dance to the tune

You’re hot and sexy
You’re the best thing alive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5
You’re growing in wisdom
You’re leading the drive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5

10 x 5
10 x 5

When you were 25
Your mistakes weren’t seen
The clock shows a soul
Where it has been

So you may think that you were fighting against the tide
But really you were floating in the ocean wide

So tell me you fear the final call
And I’ll show you the point of it all

You’re hot and sexy
You’re the best thing alive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5
You’re growing in wisdom
You’re leading the drive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5

You’re hot and sexy
You’re the best thing alive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5
You’re growing in wisdom
You’re leading the drive
Remember 50 is just 10 x 5

10 X 5

There's a mountain of blood//where I was born
And there's a whore//that rides the beast 
With many crowns//crowns of blasphemy
They will make war// with the holy lamb
--But the child of blood//shall overcome etc...
Weep and lament now Israel for the Child has gone but he shall return

Ash to ash
Dust to Dust
Here we go again
I pray to god but I swear
I don't think his listening
I fear the man in the mirror
worse than the Boogie Man!!
I held my mothers rosary inside my hand
Baby if you really know who I am
I don't think you would want to hold really my hand!!

London Bridge has fallen down!!
The sky has turned to red!!
The oceans fill with blood!!
I am the Monster here!!
The mask has fallen down!!
I'm the monster now!!
I hope you run!!

Lyrics:

The road to happiness is difficult to find
You can get lost along the way..
You have to make an effort
Keep an open mind
And happiness will come to you one day..

If there is lightning and thunder
And the rain pours down
You can still smile through your tears..
Roar like a lion
Dance in the rain
Let joy be your outfit to wear..

If you only demand
With nothing to give
Unable to find pleasures in small things..
You will never feel happy
It will only get dark
And you will miss out what life can bring..

If there is lightning and thunder
And the rain pours down
You can still smile through your tears..
Roar like an lion
Dance in the rain
Let joy be your outfit to wear..

Road To Happiness W/PJ Project

You promised the world with the look in your eye
You gave me few words and I wondered why
You kept me close but far from touch
I knew I cared far too much

‘Dance little man
And play my silly games
I said I was a fan
Though I didn’t prove my claims
I might of liked a tune or two
Perhaps I even liked you
But I thought you knew
It’s just a thing that I do’

I hoped in my heart
That when push came to shove
That I would be your sun
And you would be my love.

Dance Little Man

This is where my latest idea took me.  A bit of a message in the lyrics. 
 Not sure what genre it is, but was pretty cool to do.  Always a challenge to do something different and most certainly quite rewarding.  Hope you enjoy it.

Planet in Peril

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
And make it right,
Fix what’s wrong,

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Disgrace and guilt,
The time to act has come.  

The decline of the Earth’s natural life-support systems,
So many species threatened
Habitats neglected and destroyed.
Freshwater resources being depleted or polluted. 
The human footprint so large leaving little space for anything else.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Accept our crime,
Give life a chance

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Change some habits
Give the planet, it’s right.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Stop the abuse,
Sow seeds of life.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Hand in hand,
We can make it change.

Natural ecosystems have lost half their area.
Rain forests desiccating into savannahs
A million species at risk of extinction
All largely a result of human actions
Nature is being destroyed at hundreds of times higher than the average over the past 10m years 

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Return the gift,
This planet earth.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Only time will tell,
If we did enough

I've been busy working with a band. But I will post something really soon. 
This is a great music community that supports  and encourages others. I urge you to do the same for your fellow artists.
I thank everybody for your precious time.  It means a lot to me.
If you have a moment or two, listen to some tracks, leave a message  and please repost if you like. After all, music is meant to be heard.  Thank you for dropping in.

All the nickels and dimes I make on my songs will go to children charities (tbd).  Thank you for your support.

I love listening to tracks on SC and will certainly repost, but I only repost what I actually listen to.
Influences or artists I simply really like.
Jeff Beck, David Gilmore, Johnny Winter, Rory Gallagher, Adrian Belew, Mark Farner, SRV, Hendrix, Steve Vai, and the list goes on.
