Kimo wasn’t all that handsome but
He gambles real good
His secret weapon was a
Fuzzy rabbit’s foot
Yeah

Kimo never gambles in Rayban’s
Wears a cowboy hat instead
Placed his bets in Honolulu
Tic Tac for his breath
Yeah

‘Cuz He’s Uncle Kim
And he's the Gambler Man
Yeah, yeah

Little bit more about him

The ladies adored him
Got more dates than
J.P. Morgan did

Yeah, he named it
Kimo Karaoke’s to

Kimo The Gambler Man

I was sent 
As the hero
For your life
I was sent 
As the hero
For your life

I’m the guy
Who helped your mama 
Cross the street that one time

I was sent 
As the hero
For your life

‘Member why
Fixed your flat so fast?
‘Cuz on the curb
I saw you cry

I was sent 
As the hero
For your life

Rescued your kitty cat
On the yacht
From the waves
Might have drowned
But somebody 
Saved the day!

I was sent 
As the hero
For your life
I was sent 
As the hero
For your life
Right?!
I was sent 
As the hero
For your life

Hero For Your Life

*UMA TANGATA*

★ Song I wrote while living in the South Pacific. A true story about some boy that died at a beach there: Umu Tangata, (man oven). Battles were fought there. Men died and were cooked in the ground. Many feel it's a haunted place, while others don't believe it. It may forever be a mystery to us all.


Umu Tangata, Umu Tangata
Umu Tangata burns  

It was a beach holiday
Why did the boys have to die that day?

Umu Tangata, Umu Tangata
Umu Tangata burns
Umu Tangata, Umu Tangata
Umu Tangata burns   

They climbed up the tree just for one last taste
They sure didn't laugh when the slap hit their face
Where were the warriors?
Where was the king when it's all said and done?

Umu Tangata, Umu Tangata
Umu Tangata burns
Umu Tangata, Umu Tangata
Umu Tangata burns  

★ Song I wrote in Tonga. A true story about some boys that died at a beach there: Umu Tangata, (man oven). Battles were fought there. Men died and were cooked in the ground. Many feel it's a haunted place, while others don't believe it. It may forever be a mystery to us all.

Umu Tangata

I don't ever want to be forgotten
I don't ever want the cord to cut
Why don't you run your hands
Through my hair anymore
Only strangers come around my love

Somebody listen / Somebody care
Somebody reason / Somebody share
Because I'm under once again
And the pain's too great to bury off my shoulder
I'm under again / I'm under again 

I don't want to walk the streets for money
I don't want the needle to say, come
Why can't I keep my head above the water line
I'm the only daughter of my father's wasted life

Somebody listen / Somebody care
Somebody reason / Somebody share
Because I'm under once again
And the pain's too great to bury off my shoulder

I'm under again 
I'm under again 
I'm under again
I'm under again
I'm under again

★ True Story :: I wrote about a woman in New York City who hit the lowest of the low. She got hooked on heroine, and to support her habit— she ... “worked”. But never looking for someone to care, and caught in a vicious circle... until it all changed.

Mona — Under Again

Song I wrote about how lonely life can get. But in the midst of the fight of depression and hopelessness there's a vision on the inside that needs to come to life. At the craziest time when your heart is so cold... there comes the Angel.

In a lonely terror, confined / All I wanted was the first I could find
A long, long way to go / Shining legacy with no one left to mourn

How I wanted to see / All the pictures to breath / I wanted them

Far away I had no one left to warn / Of the hollow tragedies in store
And then came in like a rush / Violent wind that takes the coldest soul to crush

How I wanted to see / All the pictures to breath 
And my valleys to fly / And my evil...

To Angels Spinning round
Like the white dove's drone
Flaming face is the garden below
I'm alright in the hand of him who holds the sky

I'm not the angel that could once ever, ever let you down
Stuck on the angels left my faded form in past time glory
On to you angel though I never, ever, ever saw your form
Soak in the prayers of the battled ones— those rusted crazy
Your my oldest angel

Mona — Angels

I'm hungry for long lost love of what I had before, of what I had before
Full circle, full-fledged force of what I had before, of what I had before

One step off is one step close— don't want to lose 
Can't you see that less for me is more for you

All I want is fallen love (that's all I really want)
All I want is fallen love (that's all I really want)

The curtains open for you, no longer blue
Branded for throwing away the love I knew
The loving touch is what I remember

All I want...

It's like you said— through your breath
Far away—  big chance ahead

All I want is your fallen love
That's all I really want

Mona — Fallen Love

This 5-song EP was recorded with Martin Feveryear in Seattle: www.jupiterstudios.com

Waiting for the last train / So torn by the ring in me.
But you came in under the radar / Old wive's tales are the wrecking yard
Raffle off all the clues / Sanctions on the blood and blues
Well I heard you cry a mile off / Mama said, she'd clean your clock

I'm waiting for the latter rain / The damage done was all yesterday, yesterday

Walking alone another day / Tables turn when it starts to rain
The banner was my own pain / Trademarks came from suffering

I'm waiting for...

I'm waiting for the latter rain 
You came just in time / Blood bought before the crime

Mona — Latter Rain

We had it all / Then again we were so small
Love summersaults inside of us all
Plastic is salt in the wound of the cause
Wonderful was the day when we had it

All for the day to return when we had it all
Stars we were in the world of glam of glitter
When we had it all

Spot light was on / Cars lined the lawn
Silver screen was our one dream
Now the youth take the cue / Can't beat Hawaiian views
Oh so wonderful was the day when we had it

All for the day to return when we had it all
Stars we were in the world of glam of glitter
When we had it all

All for the good / all that I could / here's my apology
I'm down with the new / I'm walking through
There's more to my destiny— yeah

I'm ready to roll
I'm ready to roll
I'm ready to roll
I'm ready to roll

All I can say is the day when we had it all
Yester years were good on me in the day when we had it all
