In a bar called BLOTTO, she waits for me
A love lost over the hill
I left my girl in Hong Kong 
I hope she paid the bill.

My Girl From Hong Kong

A rose in the desert – A song for Gaza
A song of hope.

Here I stand
In the heart of this barren land
My love and my brothers by my side
We'll fight together, we won't hide

Our lives slipping away like a dream
Should I go or stay broken? 
Thunder echoes in the distant hills
But not a word was spoken

Like a rose in the desert
I must fight to survive
Every day I call upon You, O Lord
Come with me and make things right.

All night I stand on the shore
I see the faint beam of the moon
All night I heard their cries
Loud like the rain hard on the dune.

my song is etched
by the echo of their cries 
feet washed in my brother's blood
Like lives washed away in flood.

But I know we will meet again
This misery will pass away
tears will be wiped from our eyes
And death shall have no say.

For love is eternal
With faith and hope
And love is eternal
It blooms like a rose

Like a rose in the desert
I must fight to survive
Every day I call upon You, O Lord
Come with me and make things right.

A rose in the desert – A song for Gaza [Original version]

'Its all about me'

Yo, it’s all about me, caring for my own
My mama used to say
Hey boy, no way
You and yours,  can’t get no loan

Yo, Trucking down de road
Me and my boys
Eyeballing the cops
Smashing the shops

yo, trying so hard taking what I can
I no pay, I got no card
Me, me , me, ain’t no cool, 
Me. Me, me, what a fool.

yo. Grooving to the beat
Hip hopping down the street
Shakin my booty
I ain’t no beauty
Dress all akimbo
I don do limbo
What the hell ,oh yeah

Yo, me an my girl, no more funk 
Drugs don’t work, tried the junk
No more bliss, she gone away, 
Mama was right, what she say


Yo, brushin my teeth, bed on time
Got a job, it ain’t hard
ditchin the past,  ain’t no bard
is it hard to get a dime


yo, Me, me , me, ain’t no cool, 
yo, Me. Me, me, what a fool.

its all about me

‘Should I care’

The world is talking
if you want to hear
but me, me, me
I’ve nothing to fear

And People Walk in circles
Broke and despair
But those in authority
Pretend their apology
Should I care

Should I care

men were believers
they were the teachers
let’s talk Equality
call it Anthropology
But spawned in society
Let the loonies play
They or them, straight or gay
Hate them all, let them pay

The world is talking
if you want to hear
but me, me, me
I’ve nothing to fear

And the World is getting hotter
Polar bears on ice
watch them totter
Let them throw the dice
Should I care

should I care


But go to Saturn, or is it Mars
The rich can pay, fly to the moon
destroy the earth, mother’s birth
But This land is mine, read the sign
Land or sea, they come ashore
Let them come, or shut the door

Teach your children, this is war.

Should I care

The world is talking if you want to hear
But me, me, me...I've nothing to fear

Should I Care
