Nothing Compares 2 U

Song I wrote for my sister on her wedding day. Rather than compose the more typical slow song heard at weddings (not that it's a bad thing), I felt inspired to write something a bit different. The idea behind the song is that marriage is truly a celebration of love...something to keep alive forever.

Of New Beginnings

Writing this song was truly a 'spiritual' experience. It is dedicated to the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints living in Leest, Germany, and additionally, to all those who were part of the Peaceful Revolution that led to the reunification of Germany. I was particularly inspired by the lives and experiences of my former German in-laws who lived there, both during and after WWII, and for many decades as part of the German Democratic Republic, separated from the rest of the free world by an Iron Curtain and the Berlin Wall, yet making the most of their situation and finding peace and happiness. Reflecting upon them and their forefathers almost made the notes leap out of my mind.

Leest

Song written in 1993 and updated in 2004, recently receiving a name change for personal reasons.

Lila Fisch

Spank that monkey!

Can you leave your number I'm not home right now
I'm off to see the wonders of the world
Pyramids of gold and streets of chocolate
Miracles beyond anything you’ve heard
Take my word  ... 
And if you try
You'll probably fly!

Sexual enlightenment the flesh is weak
Spiritual excitement  ...  earn a star!
It's all done with mirrors and a FaceBook page
Have you shown your God just who you are?
Bring your sitar!
It's time to show
The things that you know

Spank that monkey, prove that you know how!
Feel fine funky, photos are allowed
( fall on your knees ... make a prayer please ... 
the light is in your head!)

Time to light the incense it's the break of day
Time to cloud the issues of your life
Light a candle hold on tight to your Rosary beads
Father Flanagan instructs the boys  ...  make no noise!
Cause if God hears
I'll get 50 years!

(gonna give 'em what for ... then give 'em some more
show them who's boss!)

Spank that monkey!
