so many parallels, so many tribes
so much anguish, but not enough subsides
not enough peace time, talk time, chill time

had enough.
Poi patterns? 
Weight Ball?
Three-Ball juggling or
Diablo "foolishness"

so much anguish
so much tension
so much hardship
so much to mention

many moons of anger
insult and verbal massacres
-hemoraged soul
formal dagger 
frown straight from the hole

so much stress
lines drawn
awoke in a calmmed up mess

drawn down
soaked in sweat
verbal abuse
physical pains

toilet paper not fit to wipe with

so many parallels, so many tribes
so much anguish, but not enough subsides
not enough peace time, talk time, chill time

drink up me hearties yo ho ho
and a bottle and bottle and bottle and a bottle
and a bottle of rum for me

we'll clear the slate from/with the spanish plate
from the gold from the gold from the gold from the gold
gold carribean sea

drink up me hearties yo ho ho
and get another one for me
smoke up me brethren yo ho ho
and a pipe and a half for free

drink up me hearties yo ho ho
and a bottle and a bottle and a bottle and a bottle
and a bottle of rum for me
so drink like you mean it and fight/dance when you need it
a pirate a pirate a pirate a pirate 
a pirates life for me

drink up me hearties yo ho ho
and get another one for me
smoke up me brethren yo ho ho
and a pipe and a half for free

x marks the spot of the plot i buried my whole crew in
next to the gold we stole from the hold in the galleon
mutiny they cried yo ho in the name of the pirate code
they left me alone with a barrel of rum and a knife to cut my throat
but i can swim and i jumped right in and i swam to the anchor chain
i laced their rum then doubled their grins as they slept on the spanish mane 

drink up me hearties yo ho ho
and get another one for me
smoke up me brethren yo ho ho
and a pipe and a half for free

drink up me hearties yo ho ho
and a bottle and bottle and bottle and a bottle
and a bottle of rum for me

we'll clear the slate from/with the spanish plate
from the gold from the gold from the gold from the gold
gold carribean sea

and get another one for me
smoke up me brethren yo ho ho

swingin' in the breeze n' laughing at the trees
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY
it seems she's dancin' with the leaves
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY
look to the books for a good start
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY
dry your eyes and turn out the dark
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY

Gypsy Rose drink this Tea
If she tells the leaves to see
twisted wooden Willow chime
bend her arrr and break the sign
Hectic leisures send their Love
Clogged up wings my darling Dove
twisted wooden Willow tree
Bend her arms and set her free
Bend her arms and set her free
Bend her arms set her free
Bend her arrr set her free

swingin' in the breeze n' laughing at the trees
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY
it seems she's dancin' with the leaves
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY
look to the books for a good start
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY
dry your eyes and turn out the dark
ALONG COMES HOMME AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY

Gypsy Rose drink this Tea
If she tells the leaves to see
twisted wooden Willow time
bend her arrr and break the sign
Hectic leisures send their Love
Clogged up wings my darling Dove
twisted wooden Willow tree
Bend her farms and set her free
set her free
set her free

Gypsy Rose, drink this Tea.

branching out to touch the freeze
they sway as they try to miss the invisible blanket of needles
but without much luck!... gazing at their rotting seasonal beauty
it makes me ponder....? how they ever stayed warm?
fields of rows
rows of brittle beans and stalks
skies full of black
crying undertakers
it all makes sense now...
why the sky looks empty and abandoned
isolated
giving off the impression that the needled ones will live
and the rest will -     !!!!! ......
July was their flourishing month
but now they will laugh no more...
for they have been pushed around, beaten, tossed, and turned.

STRIPPED FROM THEIR FULLNESS AND BODY!!
STRIPPED FROM THEIR FULLNESS AND BODY!!!!
STRIPPED FROM THEIR FULLNESS AND BODY!!!!!!

BY EARTH'S BREATH! BY EARTH'S BREATH! BY EARTH'S BREATH!
BY EARTH'S BREATH!! BY EARTH'S BREATH. BY EARTH'S BREATH..
By Earth's breath.

buds  do grow again
and the leaves will grow
again....

i wanna write again, i wanna pick up my pen
i wanna read again, just to prove that i can
i wanna breathe again, just to be what i am

and now i'm looking at the sky thinkin' "is it worth my time?"

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a middle-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'
everythin's gonna be

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a lower-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'
everythin's gonna be fine

i know i'm on the run, 'cause there's nowhere to hide
i'm bleedin' bags of 'fun', can't afford suicide
i'm gonna get my gun, shootin' blanks at the tide
an' now i'm lookin' at the sea wishin' it would swallow up me

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a middle-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'
everythin's gonna be

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a lower-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'
everythin's gonna be fine

(solo)

i want to float again, just ta 'toke on the vine'
i want to cope again, in this day, age, and time
i want to hope my friend, i'm gettin' dollars and dimes

an' now i'm lookin' at the sea wishin' it would swallow up me

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a lower-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'
everythin's gonna be fine

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a middle-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'
everythin's gonna be fine

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a higher-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'
everythin's gonna be fine

it's a dead-pan dream living life inside your scene
there's a diddle-class chance that ya see the un-seen
wrappin' up my Ketamine hopin' that i get with 'Flim'

Dead Pan Dream - 09:01:2024, 18.04

Concerns of the world, A sarcastic back hander to the banking system, and how much we are enslaved by a money-fueld capitalist owned society, exploiting sweat-shop workers, tearing apart the o-zone layer, playing huge war-zone games with countries of people being slaughtered and made to starve, bleed and suffer by the doings of those of the rich

DEMO

how much is a flight to the broker's ball
scar up the ocean air is all
how much is a taiwan toy these days
sweating on the floor well we can't have that
so whats the price of a flight to london if you live in birmingham
whats the score with the economicundrum
solve it by a motto of 'Yes We Can'
yes we can conquer poverty by making more money
we can find the faith from the milk and honey
why dontcha wake up and wipe all the sick of your shirt
it's another pantomime about selling the earth

yes we can add another dead brother on the list
when it comes from the banker's heart unto his wrist
and their hands are on their hearts solemnly swearing that you life
to play a part in their game was well spend from the start

how much is a drive to the corner shop
about quarter of a gallon of seventeen families blood
can't stop it if they would
talk about progress for a bowl of peas
well up comes another saviour brother leader to wrap up all the wreckage and fix us all
doesn't really work that way see cause he is in on the big fall
for the right to the pint you're drinking right now it should be sinking in
"it's not about the money, it's about sending a message"

yes we can add another dead brother on the list
when it comes from the banker's heart unto his wrist
and their hands are on their hearts solemnly swearing that you life
to play a part in their game was well spend from the start

stand tall, solid one,
stand tall, and proud,
stand tall, solid one,
stand tall and proud

reach from the skies
breathe the frequent winds
drink from the ground
feed from the bins

stand tall, tall solid one
stand tall, tall and proud
stand tall, solid one
stand tall, tall and proud

roam the endless fields 
live on the season's Brambles
without any single sound
another old dead tree falls

stand tall, solid one
stand tall, and proud
stand tall, tall solid one
stand tall, tall and proud

help is on it's way
to tame the wild and stray
help already here
to pick the buds of May

why do i know? why do i know the way?
why do i know? why do i know the way?
why do i know?? why do i know the way?
why do i know?? why do i know the way...?

stand tall, solid one
stand tall, solid and proud
stand tall tall and proud

stand tall, so solid one and

What The Actual F** (WTAF)

written and recorded by Jack Randell

when you love
someone so much all you want is to be with them
when you love
them to the point of tears serious fear smiles and softness

all you want is to be with them
all you want is to be with them

the hug
and warming sway of body in'd arms each night and day
the offer
of a drink
and a building of ears and skin in every way

all you want is to be with them
all you want is to be with them

(Solo)

all you want is to be with them
all you want is to be with them
all you want is you with them and them with you
all you want is you with them and them with you
all is there, so is this, so are you
all is there, so is this, so are you
so it is, so it is, so it is,
so it is, so it is, so it is

A story based on a blues song written by Amie Randell
written by Amie Randell, Jack Randell
produced by Sebastian Godfroid
copyright control 2020

In no way shape or form does this song reflect the writer's opinion on small animals, No animals were harmed in the making of this song

I woke up one morning and got out of bed
and i stepped on a hedgehog and thought it was dead
then in the end it is this that is what was said
i hope you're in pain boy oh i really do
'cause you flattened me like something under your shoe
and when i see you again mark my words true
i'll snuff you out with my whole hedgehog crew son
he limped out my doorway and rolled down the stairs 
now i'm really worried i'm pulling my hair out
a foot full of spines and a feeling of pain
rode to the cafe had no-one to blame
pulled out my wallet and bought me a coke
and i couldn't tell if i was part of a joke
a gypsy a farmer and all kinds of folk were there
well i guess its safe to say that we were scared
the gypsy began with a story that animals all live in fear
and as i was sat on this rickety chair i wondered
what do they fear most?
so he continued i started to calm 
when who should roll in with a very big army of friends, acquaintances, motley crew,
eyes and spines directed at you
didn't quite know what the devil to do
well if i was you i'd make way for the hedgehog crew...
and that crippled little hedgehog with an evil grin was there
he pointed at me yeah he pointed at me
the fury in his beady eyes shone brighter than the brightest skies
he pointed at me yeah he pointed at me
and they all ran at once and the farmer started to scream!
spines they were flying all over the place
cries of the women reaching for their mace
aim it at them please not into my face
i knew what i had to do-oo
i got stuck in with a leg and an arm
intention was never to cause any harm
i lost my temper, sound the alarm!
boy, those hedgehogs flew...
the dust it then settled how i was appalled
at the rodent limbs sliding off all of the walls
i picked up a table, a chair and a stool
invited the gypsy to play me at pool
now if you're thinking that that was the end
of the war on the hogs, it's nice to pretend
my foot is now healing and back on the mend
the foxes and badgers are safe again...
a week or two later in front of a paper 
a nice cup of tea and a piping hot pizza
a hedgehog broke in with a magnum 9mm!
he said all predictably "You're gonna die! so listen up punk, say your goodbye!"
I over-reacted threw pepperoni in his eye
the critter was angry and rightly so for the meat on the go
i was brought up to know it's not right to fight the slow
when all said and done and you stop having fun
