It's hard for me to smile when you're looking so lonely
It's hard for me to laugh when you're feeling blue
It just might take a while to show you it's never as dark as it seems
But I'll be right by your side  until you're dancing your dreams

I'll hold you while you cry when your poor heart gets broken
I'll laugh with you again when you're on the mend
I know you'll find a way to laugh down your troubles in all their extremes
And it's never hard to smile  while you're dancing your dreams

Let me see your big bright smile like the sun coming up over the sea
Whistle me a tune, spin around the room
Like you do when you're laughing with me

Who could see you smile and not want to smile with you?
Who could hear you laugh and not laugh along?
The world's already cried enough tears to overflow all of her streams
We need to hear your song  and see you dancing your dreams

Let me see your big bright smile like the sun coming up over the sea
Whistle me a tune, spin around the room
Like you do when you're laughing at me

Who could see you smile and not want to smile with you?
Who could hear you laugh and not laugh along?
The world's already cried enough tears to overflow all of her streams
We need to hear your song  and see you dancing your dreams

Let us hear your song  and see you dancing your dreams
It's time to hear your song  and see you dancing your dreams

Dancing Your Dreams

Willie Nelson - Always On My Mind (Cover)

Music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, "Rondo alla Turca," from his Sonata No. 11 K331 for piano, words © Copyright 2007, 2015 Peter Lloyd.

Bedadeedadeep bedadeedadeep bedadeeda deedadeeda deedadeeda deep 
Bada rumpa bada rumpa bada rump bump bum

The Australian lizard known as Skink
Tongue of blue inside a mouth of pink
All of sixty centimeters long
Watch those teeth, his jaw is mighty strong
If he finds a date, spring’s his time to mate
Spends his summers sunnin’ and mornin’s sleepin’ late 
All the winter, deep beneath the leaves he lies in state. 

Bedadeedadeep bedadeedadeep bedadeeda deedadeeda deedadeeda deep 
Bada rumpa bada rumpa bada rump bump bum

Orange and umber with a racing stripe
Skink is not the energetic type
Sleeps alone in hollow, fallen logs
Runs away from hungry cats and dogs
Dingoes will pursue, kookaburras, too
If you get his hackles up, he’ll puff and hiss at you 
But some predators avoid him ‘cuz his tongue is blue

When he runs for his life, he lets his tail drop off behind him 
While his rump feeds his predator, he’s safely on his way 
Skink’s a wise little lizard, doesn’t need us to remind him 
You can lose your behind and live to run another day

Bedadeedadeep bedadeedadeep bedadeeda deedadeeda deedadeeda deep 
Bada rumpa bada rumpa bada rump bump bum

He is not a picky omnivore
Finds his dinner on the forest floor
Snails and beetles, any bug’ll do
Fruits and flowers, he can eat a few
Goes for slower prey, others get away
Likes to snatch his supper in the middle of the day 
To digest it just a bit of gravel works okay

When he runs for his life, he lets his tail drop off behind him 
While his rump feeds his predator, he’s safely on his way 
Skink’s a wise little lizard, needs no wizard to remind him 
You can lose your behind and live to run another day

The Australian lizard known as Skink
Tongue of blue inside a mouth of pink
All of sixty centimeters long
Watch those teeth, his jaw is mighty strong
I don’t make this up, you can call my bluff 
See Tiliqua scincoides intermedia
Go and look him up online in Wikipedia

Have you heard, “If you can dream it, you can do it”?
No, you can’t, but go ahead and try
Just remember, even if you do achieve your dream
You’ll still get old and sick, and then you’ll die

What you can do is do a little better
Help your neighbor tote part of his load
What you can do is take less and give a little more
When you serve the cake, make sure it's a la mode

Now, the next verse, I lifted. Full disclosure. 
From a man whose work has topped the test of time
He wrote the way he wrote, cuz that’s the way he chose to write 
And perhaps that’s why it doesn’t rhyme

Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more
It is a tale told by an idiot
Full of sound and fury signifying nothing

What you can do is be a little kinder
Help your neighbor tote part of his load
What you can do is toss a little spare change out your window
To the guy with the cardboard sign along the road

While I’m stealing material, let’s go back a little further

Vanity of vanities! All is vanity. 
What does man gain by all the toil at which he toils under the sun?
What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done
And there is nothing new under the sun

What you can do is show a little mercy
Help your neighbor tote part of his load
If you do perform some random act of kindness
Don’t look back and wonder if it showed

Your eulogy won’t mention your income
If you do gain fame, it may cite a coup or two
Most likely your obit will simply make a list
Of those you loved and those who loved you
Yes, it’s all about whom you love and who loves you

The rest is bullshit

Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow

Let me be your storm cloud, rain for all I’m worth
Roar in with the thunder, soak your sorry earth        
Let me be your river swollen with debris
Feed your awful sadness to the hungry sea
Let me be your hurricane’s raging, screaming eye
Toss your thieving pirate ships through the frozen sky

I don’t want to see you cry anymore. 
Let me kiss away your tears 
I just want to see you fly once more 
Far beyond your darkest fears 

Let me be the pillow where you rest your head 
Raise a cozy canopy just above your bed
Let me be the ceiling over you at night
Drive your surly demons ever from your sight    
Let me be the watchman in your sleeping skies
I will turn the Milky Way as you close your eyes

I don’t want to see you cry anymore. 
Let me kiss away your tears 
I just want to see you fly once more 
Far beyond your darkest fears 

You don’t need a refuge. It’s no use to hide 
Anything you run from follows you inside        
You don’t need a wonder. Miracles are free
You’ve already shown me more than I can see    
You don’t need an aeroplane. You can fly alone
Think of all the fantasy you’ve already flown

I don’t want to see you cry anymore. 
Let me kiss away your tears 
I just want to see you fly once more 
Far beyond your darkest fears

I don’t want to see you cry. Far beyond the darkness fly 
I don’t want to see you cry. Far beyond the darkness fly

He said "I'll love you till I die", 
She told him "You'll forget in time"
As the years went slowly by, 
She still preyed upon his mind

He kept her picture on his wall, 
Went half-crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all, 
Hoping she'd come back again

Kept some letters by his bed 
Dated nineteen sixty-two
He had underlined in red 
Every single "I love you"

I went to see him just today, 
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away, 
First time I'd seen him smile in years

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

You know, she came to see him one last time 
Aww, and we all wondered if she would 
And it kept runnin' through my mind
"This time he's over her for good"

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

He Stopped Loving Her Today - Alan Jackson (at George Jones' Funeral)

Mike Kenney provided the idea for this song. Jason Liles composed the music and sang the part of Pete. David Lloyd played guitars, bass and built percussion. Caitlin Ayers sang the part of the Wife. Peter Lloyd wrote lyrics, sang the part of the Bartender and played harmonica.

Cheatin on Us

Bartender speaks:
A bartender sees a lot of shit
But nothing like last night
Mike stormed in, face all red
That boy was looking to fight

Pete sat alone nursing his beer
His face was sad and long
Mike picked him up, threw him on the floor
Then Pete started singing this song:

Pete sings:
I know you love your lovely wife
But I'm in love with her too
And when I hit you with the truth
It’s gonna hurt me more than you

When she's with me she's cheatin' on you
But please don't make a fuss
Cuz when she's with you, she's cheatin' on me
Your wife's been cheatin' on us

I saw her just the other day
Stepping on the crosstown bus
That can only mean one thing, Mike
Your wife's been cheatin on us

Each of us gets time enough
Why should we complain?
Let's have ourselves another round
And drink to love in vain

Harmonica break

Bartender speaks:
Well then she walked in, wouldn't you know
On the arm of yet another man
All three men looked hard at her
That’s when the fun began

Wife sings:
Oh, you little boys, you silly boys 
Please try to act like men
I told y’all, when it comes to love
I choose who and when

So love me or leave me, make up your mind 
But it’s gonna go my way
You know I love all three of you 
And I hope y’all choose to stay

Cheatin On Us

Words and music © Copyright by Peter Lloyd 1999

Early every morning the prisoner opens his eyes 
Turns his pillow over and tells himself he never cries 
But words fall from the radio, a memory fits like a glove
He thinks of you and wonders, How long is your love?

Days still dawn without you to carry his dreams on your voice
The walls around him echo the curses of derelict choice
Today he’s building barricades his predators can’t rise above
To bide his time and wonder, How long is your love?

He knows your love is strong enough,  abusing it—his crime
He hopes your love is long enough to stand the strains of time

Night gives little shelter should hungry eyes meet in the dark 
When they trade their secrets, they tremble without a remark 
Tonight he carves a makeshift knife just in case push comes to shove
He hides his pride and wonders, How long is your love?

He knows your love is strong enough,  abusing it—his crime
He hopes your love is long enough to stand the strains of time

Early every morning the prisoner opens his eyes 
Turns his pillow over and tells himself love never dies 
But words fall from the radio, a memory fits like a glove
He thinks of you and wonders, How long is your love?

Yes, he thinks of you and wonders, How long is your love?

How Long Is Your Love

Sometimes I'm up. Sometimes I'm down
In this world there could not be a smile if it were not for the frown
Every 24 hours, if there's a night there's a daytime, too
No matter what shape my face may take
I'm always in love with you

Sometimes I'm caught so deep in thought
You may think that there's no room for you around my troubled mind
A love is hard to find, but it's worth it when you know it's true
No matter what shape my face may take
I'm always in love with you

Your love gave me a purpose
You love showed me the way
Your love gave my heart a song to sing
I'm gonna sing it every day

Just because I'm low sometimes, don't let me go
If you're looking for the perfect love, you'll be looking till your dying day
Just remember, Darling, when I'm feeling blue
No matter what shape my face may take
I'm always in love with you

Your love gave me a purpose
You love showed me the way
Your love gave my heart a song to sing
I'm gonna sing it every day

Sometimes I'm up. Sometimes I'm down
In this world there could not be a smile if it were not for the frown
Every 24 hours, if there's a night there's a daytime, too
No matter what shape my face may take
I'm always in love with you
In love with you
In love with you

Sometimes (Sherry's Song)

Words and music by Ben Lawson. Ben sent his version of this song around to friends and invited them to re-do it. So I did. The image features Dash of the Ayers family.

I don't know why I think like a dog
But I'll run all day, yeah, like a dog
If runnings what I gotta do
I'll do it for you

I can't explain why I'm hungry all the time
But I go without food, yeah, I'll be fine
If starvings what I gotta do
I'll starve for you

I don't understand why you make me wait outside
When all I wanna do is be by your side
If waitings what I gotta do
I'll do it for you

If waitings what I gotta do
I'll wait for you
If that's what it's coming to
That's what I'll do

Look outside my door, sun is shinin' bright 
What's the sun good for? Might as well be night
Ain't it plain to see I miss Marie

Left without a trace, why I'll never know 
Still I see her face everywhere I go 
Where can she be I miss Marie

I sit here reminiscin’ 'bout the huggin' and the kissin' 
She swore would never end
Nobody wants to listen but a part of me is missin' 
And I need some time to mend

Now it's time to go to the Town Hall Dance Me 
I'm layin' low, I don't stand a chance 
Everyone will see I miss Marie

I sit here reminiscin 'bout the huggin' and the kissin' 
She swore would never end
Nobody wants to listen but a part of me is missin' 
So why should I pretend?

Look inside my door. What an awful sight 
Lying on the floor, I'll be here all night
Ain’t it plain to see, I miss Marie

Well, it's plain to me I miss Marie

I Miss Marie

Jailbreak/Sunday Supper

Sunday Supper

"Brimming with nostalgic grit and a call for unity, 'We Could Use Some Woodstock' is a heartfelt country rock anthem that transports you back to the golden era of peace and music. With lyrics that recall legendary moments from Woodstock and icons like Janis, Hendrix, and the Grateful Dead, the track paints a vivid picture of a time when music was pure, communal, and transformative. It's a raw, unfiltered invitation to set aside our differences, embrace the spirit of classic rock n' roll, and believe that love and brotherhood can still light the way. Get ready to ride along on this two-lane midnight journey where every note reminds you: sometimes, we could all use a little more Woodstock in our lives."

We Could Use Some Woodstock

Retriblablabla

Life is our art.  The whole thing is just our creation.  It's sometimes messy, ugly, beautiful and we judge ourselves and others.  That is like judging a painting or sculpture, it just doesn't work.  Its just art.  Not good, not bad, just art.

Just Art

In Your Love

OLD FREINDS

Queria hablar español, and so
I wandered my way to Bolivia 
Now from my cell in the heart of La Paz
I pine for my lovely Olivia

Olivia appeared like a long-lost dream
From Heaven she said God had hastened her
“Sip my elixir of love,” she implored 
 My trust then I readily placed in her

We sang to the stars of the southern sky
And sipped sucumbé, tea and lemonade
Danced to the whims of her passion until
Polícia cut short our escapade

O-li-iv-ia, if God sent you down from the sky to me 
O-li-iv-ia, when I asked you your age, why’d you lie to me?    

My sentence may outlive my life, but now
I must not let misery harden me
Locked in La Paz for the rest of my life 
I pray presidente may pardon me

O-li-iv-ia, if God sent you down from the sky to me 
O-li-iv-ia, when I asked you your age, why’d you lie to me?    

My lovely Olivia. Of course, I forgive ya
Olivia, I give ya my love    
Olivia, te doy mi amor

Olivia

Another November I stand with the trees
Their black branches robbed by a mean autumn breeze
I lean on a tall oak, my cheek to her bark
And mourn my companion as the woodland grows dark

Oh, I miss my companion, always more, never less
As the years wrap around me, they embrace my distress
I return to you empty. Speak again what you teach
From the ages inside you round and as wide as my reach

Then the oak speaks for hours and her wisdom I heed
I hear in her silence all the solace I need
"Stay standing, she minds me, "let death do its worst
"Welcome each sunrise as if it's your first"

Yes, another November I stand with the trees
Their black branches robbed by a mean autumn breeze
I must leave you again now with tears on your bark
But I'll come back each autumn till my memory goes dark

Companion

Justine, you make me feel so clean
Justine, you make me feel so clean
You took my love and run it through the washing machine

Justine, I hate to walk with you downtown
Justine, I hate to walk with you downtown
You talk so loud and you're always putting me down

Justine, you make me feel so clean
Justine, you make me feel so clean
You took my love and run it through the washing machine

Justine, you wear your clothes inside out
Justine, you wear your clothes inside out
Your hearts so full of anger and your heads so full of doubt

Justine, you make me feel so clean
Justine, you make me feel so clean
You took my love and run it through the washing machine

Justine, come and get your cigarets
Justine, come and get your cigarets
You left them on the table and I'm trying to forget

Justine, you make me feel so clean
Justine, you make me feel so clean
You took my love and run it through the washing machine

Justine

Well, I never climbed a mountain, no, I never even tried
What’s the point of crawlin halfway to the sky? 
When everything I wanna see is somewhere in your eyes
And I never have to ever leave your side 

No, I’ll never solve a mystery or cure a rare disease
My face will never grace Time magazine 
And though I try to please you and keep you trouble free
I can never ever give you guarantees 

But every day I try to make you smile and never cry
Help you soothe your wounds and chase away your blues 
I’ll never get it all right and always come up shy
But I’ll never ever give you alibis 

Oh, there’s so much more I haven’t done and so much more to do
To be the man you hoped that I would be 
But there’ll always be one promise you can count on comin true
I will never, no not ever, not love you 

And every day I try to make you smile and never cry
Help you soothe your wounds and chase away your blues 
I’ll never get it all right and always come up shy
And I’ll never ever give you alibis 

Oh, there’s so much more I haven’t done and so much more to do
To be the man you hoped that I would be 
But there’ll always be one promise you can count on comin true
I will never, no not ever, not love you

No, I’ll never, no not ever, not love you

Never

let’s remember Alice Ball, long unrecognized 
found a cure for leprosy, so long ago   
Alice died at twenty-three      
white men called her work their own
I think we all know why
I think we all know why

let us give Charles Drew his due, long unrecognized
taught us how to share our blood, so long ago
volunteered to donate first
white men turned charles drew away
I think we all know why
I think we all know why

where have all the lepers gone?
Alice healed them all
blood banks save so many lives
Charles made it so
why were they not recognized?
jealous white men feared their fame

I think we all know why
I think we all know why

We All Know Why

I see the way you look at her            
It hurts me
Can’t help the way it makes me feel            
It hurts me                                            
I remember you when you were near                                      
Whisp’ring sweet words in my ear
When you’re not here where you belong
It hurts me
   
I see the way you walk with her 
It hurts me                                                                  
I hear the way the way you talk with her         
It hurts me                   
You hold hands that don’t belong to me
She’s right where I long to be     
When you’re not here where you belong         
It hurts me
                                          
I swear I try to stay away                    
But I saw you just the other day                
It made me want to break right down and cry  
I want to smile and wish you well 
But I’m still underneath your spell
When you’re not here where you belong
It hurts me

I see the way you look at her            
It hurts me
Can’t help the way it makes me feel            
It hurts me                                            
I remember you when you were near                                      
Whisp’ring sweet words in my ear
When you’re not here where you belong
It hurts me
                                                                     
When you’re not here where you belong  
You hurt me

It Hurts Me

I’m The Problem

I Got Better

The Single Song

Marriage has its smiles and frowns, crooks and clowns, chains and crowns
Marriage has its ups and downs, but everyone agrees:

I wanna be single, I just wanna go where I wanna go
I'm itchin' to mingle, I'd much rather know who I wanna know
I'll hang out my shingle, forget all the rules and go with the flow
I'm eager to see if it's better to be single and free

I'm tired of sharing, it's time to try on a new pair of shoes 
I've done enough caring, I just wanna do who I wanna do
It's time to be daring, I'm ready to run with a new kinda crew
I'm eager to see if it's better to be single and free

I wanna be carefree, let everyone know I'm ready to play
Don't wanna be married, wake up in a different bed every day
I dare you to dare me, I'll knock every obstacle out of my way
I'm eager to see if it's better to be single and free

I wanna be single, see what kind of trouble I can invite
I just wanna mingle, lie down in a different bed every night
I'll hang out my shingle, let everyone know I that I'm travelin' light
I'm eager to see if it's better to be single and free

I Wanna Be Single

Easy To Love

You've made a conscious effort to make a damn fool out of me
I know it's your endeavor to turn me into your enemy
Oh, but, I'm just a hard-headed lover boy
I'll bang my head against your wall until it falls

I know it's your intention to laugh me off the face of the earth
You better ease the tension or I'll see you get your money's worth
No, I'm just a hard-headed lover boy
I'll bang my head against your wall until it falls

You’ll never make me lose my appetite
I’ve made my mind up on you
I’ll try and try until I get it right
That’s what a lover boy’s supposed to do

You've got your concentration set on bringing me to my knees
Call the United Nations cuz I don't buckle under easily
Yeah, cuz I'm just a hard-headed lover boy
I'll bang my head against your wall until it falls

They may find me on the street some day
Or lying face-down on your lawn
But you won't see me take defeat that way
I'll take you down, baby, long before I'm gone

You've made a conscious effort to make a damn fool out of me
I know it's your endeavor to turn me into your enemy
Oh, but, I'm just a hard-headed lover boy
I'll bang my head against your
I'll bang my head against your
I'll bang my head against your wall until it falls
I’ll bang my head until you fall

Hard-headed Lover Boy

i broke my own heart

i fell for her like a leaf from a tree
not a thing i could do about it
she gave me proof of her love— at least
i had no reason to doubt it
but i played around from the very start
only meant to break a few rules
instead, i broke my own heart 

i know i did wrong, but you might as well 
tell a fox to stop chasing rabbits 
i live for the chase, get bored with the catch
it’s not easy to break old, bad habits 
yeah, i played around from the very start
only meant to break a few rules
instead, i broke my own heart 

someday you may find someone 
with everything you require
don’t even think about playing around 
you’re better off playing with fire

i played around from the very start
only meant to break a few rules
instead, i broke my own heart 
like fool, i broke my own heart
serves me right, i broke my own heart

HIGHEST IN THE ROOM

Songwriter since 1966. Can't believe I still have to write protest songs. Prefer writing love songs and songs of praise for stand-up women and men, parodies, lyrical nonsense, blues and adaptations.
