Keep Your Mind In Check

A song written in the middle of the summer...

Here are the lyrics:

Little girl you shouldn't 
be following me
You 're so young and i 
like you too much
Little girl you shouldn't 
be looking for me
I'm slow and 
you 're so fast

Little girl you shouldn't
be so damn sweet
I wanna taste 
but i can't even touch
Little girl your figure 
is haunting me
Sometimes i think 
it's all made up in my mind

Little girl you shouldn't 
(be following me)
Little girl you shouldn't 
(be looking for me)
Little girl you shouldn't 

Little girl you shouldn't be 
so alone
when i see it 
it tears me apart 
Please girl come 
a little closer to me
who cares if you really 
love me or not

Little girl you shouldn't be 
so afraid
come my way
and grab my hand
one thing i know
and i promise you
i won't hurt you and
i won't brake your heart

Little girl you shouldn't 
(be following me)
Little girl you shouldn't 
(be looking for me)
Little girl you shouldn't 

Little girl you shouldn't
be so damn sweet
I wanna taste 
but i can't even touch
Little girl your figure 
is haunting me
Sometimes i think 
it's all made up in my mind

Little girl you shouldn't 
(be following me)
Little girl you shouldn't 
(be looking for me)
Little girl you shouldn't 
(be following me)
Little girl you shouldn't 
(be looking for me)
Little girl you shouldn't 

Little Girl

The girl with her eyes so bright
All the boys want to hold her tight
She's got ya smiling from ear to ear
Put your money down you got nothin' to fear

Midnight Marcelle and the party girls
Cruising down the strip gonna rule the world
Midnight Marcelle and the party girls
Breaking Hearts tonight
All around the world
All around the world

Especially when it's 3am
Press your bets double down again
and then you find you're down 10 Geez
You lose control and fall to your knees

The two-step grift stepped on your heart
Cleaned out your pockets and tore you apart
She grabbed you high and hit you low
And made you scream say
"Hey! Where'd you go?"

Midnight Marcelle and the party girls
Cruising down the strip gonna rule the world
Midnight Marcelle and the party girls
Breaking Hearts tonight
All around the world
All around the world

She played the part of a femme fatale in a film noir, yeah
And made you scream, yeah
Like a broken
A broken guitar!
A broken guitar!

Midnight Marcelle and the party girls
Cruising down the strip gonna rule the world
Midnight Marcelle and the party girls
Breaking Hearts tonight all around the world
All around the world
All around the world
The world

Midnight Marcelle

Careless Whisper

My brand new car was still in park
When you came to my town
With your short skirt and fancy smile
Spinning round and round

Oh I didn't know what hit me
I was knocked down on the floor
A car crash was no accident
Got me begging you for more

Baby I wasn't ready
I know I stole your heart
No airbag to save you now
I was a bad girl from the start

Every time I think of you
My engine light goes on
Every time I see your face
I know I can't go on

My engine light goes on and on
Searching for your love
Tried every greaser fix in town
Even from the man above

Oh I can't seem to shut it off
so what can one man do?
My engine light keeps flashing strong
Flashing strong for you

Baby I wasn't ready
I know I stole your heart
No airbag to save you now
I was a bad girl from the start

Every time I think of you
My engine light goes on
Every time I see your face
I know I can't go on

With this charade
Thumper's not my name
Get off the street boy
You're gonna burn in flames
Just give me 50
And tell your friends
You're my bad boyfriend

Baby I wasn't ready
I know I stole your heart
No airbag to save you now
I was a bad girl from the start

Whoa every time I think of you
My engine light goes on
Every time I see your face
I know I can't go on

Every time I think of you
I know I can't go on
Every time I see your face
My engine light goes on
I see your face
Your face

Engine Light

We don't own a motor car
we use the green autobus.
Simplicity seems to suit us.
We have green bicycles.
And we love to up cycle-
anything old we make new.
We can always make do
with much less than you.

We can always make do
with much less than you
because we dig and we grow
and we mend, we darn and sew.

It helps not having a TV.
We sit. We knit. We talk.
We go for long nature walks
where we forage for freebies.
All the fresh air and exercise
ensures we sleep like babies.

We have a radio receiver
that feeds our needs for music.
We have pets. And oh yes-
we've gotten over being choosy-
believe this is as good as it gets.

We're having a good life
living the good life.
Believe this is as good as it gets.
We're having a good life
living the good life.
Believe this is as good as it gets.

(I see the sunrise every day.
I pick fresh eggs out of the hay.
And we breakfast slowly,
breaking home baked bread-
giving thanks for the beans.
And thanking our lucky stars
that we'll stay as happy as we are.)

We're having a good life
living the good life.
Believe this is as good as it gets.
We're having a good life
living the good life.
Believe this is as good as it gets.
We're having a good life
living the good life.
Believe this is as good as it gets.

A Good Life

A GOOD LIFE

Is This Love

ECONOMIC TSUNAMI 🌍  A roots reggae cry from the soul, "Economic Tsunami" rages against greed, corruption, and the moral decay of empire. With heavy basslines, haunting melodies, and politically charged lyrics, this track exposes the devastating impact of U.S. economic policies driven by arrogance and contempt.

This is a warning — and a lament.
This is the sound of rebellion.
This is the storm before the reckoning.

🔥 For the people. For the planet. For the truth.

🎧 Listen. Share. Wake up.

La De Dah Dah Dah
Eww Oh Oh Oh
La De Dah Dah Dah
And we walk and we roll

See di leaders in di towers tall
Countin’ dollars while di people fall
Promises like paper burn
But di wicked never learn

Pushin' poison in di name of trade
Backroom deals and plans they made
Sellin' futures like dey sellin’ lies
Underneath Babylon skies

Economic Tsunami Oh Comin’
Runnin’ from di lies but it’s drummin’
Economic Tsunami Oh Comin’
Rivers turnin’ red while dey hummin’

La De Dah Dah Dah
Oh Oh Oh
La De Dah Dah Dah
And it goes

Wall Street wolves with golden teeth
Feastin’ while di poor can't eat
Debt chains tighter every day
Freedom sold and thrown away

Arrogance a heavy price
Contempt will never roll di dice twice
Stars and stripes now soaked in greed
No more room for the people's need

Economic Tsunami Oh Comin’
Truth buried deep but it’s drummin’
Economic Tsunami Oh Comin’
Jah know judgment day start strummin’

La De Dah Dah Dah
Oh Oh Oh
La De Dah Dah Dah
The little people say

Oh say can you see
What dey done in di name of liberty
Freedom a word dey twist and kill
All for power and a paper thrill

A pot of gold for a poisoned land
Now di fire’s slippin’ through dey hands
Di empire crumble slow but sure
Di people cryin’ can't take no more

Children cryin’ from sea to sea
While dem preach ‘bout democracy
But it's hunger and war dem really sell
Sendin’ di world straight to hell

Oh USA what path you take
Turnin’ hearts cold for profit's sake
Remember pride before di fall
And Jah still watchin’ over all

La De Dah Dah Dah
Oh Oh Oh
La De Dah Dah Dah
And so it goes

Economic Tsunami Oh Comin’
Truth buried deep but it’s drummin’
Economic Tsunami Oh Comin’
Babylon soon get what's comin’
Economic Tsunami Oh Comin’
Tsunami Oh Comin’
Oh Comin’
And we all drown

LYRICS

They met in the shadows hearts beating bold
Working long nights in the bitter cold
She cleaned the rooms he laid the stone
Dreamin' of a place they could call their own

They danced in kitchens laughed behind doors
Whispered sweet nothings they'd never ignore
But the sirens came with a cruel decree—
"You don’t belong here you’re not free"

Valle de Guadalupe take me home tonight
Valle de Guadalupe where the stars shine bright
We found love we found our way
Dancing free down by the bay
Valle de Guadalupe say it one more time
Valle de Guadalupe your heart is mine

They crossed that border as the moon took rise
Stars like lanterns in foreign skies
No walls could stop what their love had grown
In every mile they felt more at home

The sea sang soft as they drove the coast
Each sunset a blessing each sunrise a toast
Through cactus fields and vineyard rows
They found the life that their old world chose to close

Valle de Guadalupe take me home tonight
Valle de Guadalupe where the stars shine bright
We found love we found our way
Dancing free down by the bay
Valle de Guadalupe say it one more time
Valle de Guadalupe your heart is mine

Now they sip sweet wine under olive trees
The air filled with song and warm evening breeze
No more hiding no more shame
Just love and work and an honored name

They build with their hands they dance in the square
Their stories are welcomed their roots growing there
A country that held them like arms wide and wide
Gave them a home no need to hide

Valle de Guadalupe take me home tonight
Valle de Guadalupe where the stars shine bright
We found love we found our way
Dancing free down by the bay
Valle de Guadalupe we’ll never say goodbye
Valle de Guadalupe you’re where our hearts can fly

So if you ever feel lost or torn apart
Just follow the road that honors the heart
There’s a place where dreams live under skies so blue
Down in the Valle waiting for you
