We The People Way (Song Parody)

These past few years in the USA
Things have gotten dire
Out the bastards, screw it anyway
Time they should retire

And we don't need the RINOs sayin' that they'll lead the way
Cuz it's time the bastards heard what We The People have to say

Well they're tellin' us this and they're tellin' us that
Changin' it every day
Say it doesn't matter
Joe and his Jill and his crack-addled brat embezzling from Ukraine
Brains like pancake batter

And we don't need the RINOs sayin' they'll turn things around
Cuz they've shown us their true stripes, and they'll cave before it all comes down

Can't continue in the current way
The country won't survive it
Here's to you Joe and you already know but I'll mention it even so
I just plagiarized it

And I don't need reminders tellin' me it's not my fight
Cuz it's We The People's Way, and We The People have the right

And I don't need the RINOs sayin' that they'll take control
Cuz the pussy-footin' RINOs gladly sell their mothers' soul

We The People Way

This is a collaboration across 8500 miles between two willing hearts. I asked Goirick to come up with lyrics and the vocal arrangement for this tune, only asking him to use for his theme the song title presented. You may note a slightly different usage in his Indian English from standard American English; it's more similar to British English; for example, Brits say 'in hospital', whereas Americans say 'in the hospital'. That's okay. And by the way, Goirick has the distinction of being a national award-winning poet of free verse in the English vernacular, so we are in good company. Here are the lyrics to 'No Time Like Present':

There are no different skies
For us to see
How we should be
Live it in, or leave it
Where it must be
then...

No time like present
No time like now.

We are all but dying
They say, we all must.

Now there's a winter
Now there's a summer's goodbye,
Now that we are
Like April and July

But that's not why
I sing this song
But that's not why
I sing. 

fly...


Where are those
Where are those
Who were mine

Where are those
Yester, Yesterdays

That promised us promised us love
if not, some sweet gold rye?

No time like present
No time like now

We are all but dying
For we all, we all must

Now there's a Winter
Now there's Summer's goodbye,
Now there, where we were
Like April or July

Are we just left to die
Are we just left to die now,
Are we just left to die.

No Time (Like Present)

O for a thousand tongues to sing my great redeemer's praise
My great redeemer's praise
The glories of my God and king, the triumph of his grace

My gracious master and my God, assist me to proclaim
Assist me to proclaim
To spread through all the earth abroad the honors due thy name

Jesus! The name that calms our fears and bids our sorrows cease
He bids our sorrows cease
Tis music to the sinner's ears, tis life and health and peace

He breaks the power of cancelled sin and sets the prisoner free
He sets the prisoner free
His blood can make the foulest clean, his blood availed to me

For A Thousand Tongues

You must increase, I must decrease
Faretheewell my blue-eyed Jesus
Let's review the evidence thus far

You had a ma, you had a pa
They did not come from Arkansas and
No one knows what colors your eyes are

Jesus Christ, God's only son
God's messiah, Holy One
The color of your skin was never said

If you were dark or you were fair
Which way you liked to part your hair
We only know the color that you bled

You must increase, I must decrease
Faretheewell, my blue-eyed Jesus
You exceed all majesty by far

Born humble in a cattle shed
You found no place to lay your head
Now look, you are all mankind's shining star

Jesus, son of God and man
Tramped across the Holy Land
Stirring hearts with things he said and did

Hung on a cross for sin's disgrace
Laid in a tomb, he took our place but
After three days he blew off the lid

You must increase, I must decrease
Faretheewell, my blue-eyed Jesus
Let's review the evidence thus far

You had a ma, you had a pa
They did not come from Arkansas and
No one knows what colors your eyes are

My tracks from home - Guitar and drums. I used a 20-watt Orange Micro Terror amp plugged into twin 15" Fender Bass Man speakers, Open D on a Rogue biscuit resonator guitar.

Blues 4A Monday

Live tracking on a classic Van Morrison tune that Kahle and I used to play. His solid bass lines and solo brought a good feel to the tune.

Amazing Grace

Didn't  I make the sky so blue, something you could look up to
Now how is it that I'm to blame that the ground got hot and the lightning came
Didn't I make the apple sweet, something good for you to eat
Now how is it my concern that you didn't look and you bit the worm

What was it you wanted, should I be like you
Should I lower my standard, would that still be true

Didn't I make the world so grand, moved the waters off the land
Kept the sweet, sent the salt, how is it you still find fault
Didn't I make the birds and beast, the very great to the very least
The hummingbird, the mighty whale, the rhino's tusk and the puppy's tail

What was it you wanted, should I be like you
Should I lower my standard, would that still be true

Didn't I make room for you, inside the swelling womb you grew
I gave you a mouth to laugh and yawn, two breasts for you to feed upon
When I offer paradise, how is it you still choose vice
And just when you thought evil won, didn't I send my own son

What was it you wanted, should I be like you
Should I lower my standard, would that still be true

What Was It You Wanted?

Love (1 Cor. 13:4)

Love, and its disguises
Comes with its surprises
This myself surmises
As I move along in years

Love, so warm and tender
Plays a great pretender
When it does sure to render
A heart to many tears

Love, with all its thunder
Pulls a person under
Its spell in awe and wonder
Makes a heady claim

Love, in pure devotion
First kind without a notion
Of self or its promotion
Being patient just the same

Love is Kind, 1 Cor. 13, Vs. 4

Two Days In Samaria

Two days in Samaria really oughta do it for me
Two days of hysteria before we hit the road to Galilee
We've sure had some fine hospitality
These good Samaritans for my buddies and me
But the road leads onward to Galilee -- so
That really oughta do it for me!

Two Days in Samaria

Trends come and go -- yet some things endure. Finally it's all about the song -- the rest will take care of itself.
That is what Mark Mowry and his music are all about.
