LYRICS:
IN THE SUMMER SUN
We are the ones and we’re having so much fun,
‘Cause when our work is done we’ll be playing in the Summer sun.

All day long we’re working, Jack.
It’s like one step forward, two steps back. 
Punching that clock and pushing hard,
You know, I just can’t wait to jump in my car.

Now you can bring your friends along and we’ll play our favorite songs: 
I Get Around and Fun, Fun, Fun.
Dig the big sound, top down and we’re on the run.

‘Cause all day long we’re working, Jack.
It’s like one step forward, two steps back.
Punching that clock and pushing hard,
You know, I just can’t wait to jump in my car and go...

Ba-ba-ba-ba.....(repeats)
Going for some fun in the Summer sun.

(Instrumental break)

All day long we’re working, Jack.
It’s like one step forward, two steps back. 
Punching that clock and pushing hard,
You know, I just can’t wait to jump in my car.

Ba-ba-ba-ba.....(repeats)

Going for some fun now in the sun.

We are the ones and we’re having so much fun,
‘Cause when our work is done we’ll be playing in the Summer sun.

In The Summer Sun  (Single)

In loving memory of our friend and bandmate, Terry Palmer.
We remember Terry with this live recording of us performing in 1978 with Terry singing beautifully as ever. His voice was always an inspiration to our song writing.
We’ll never forget you, brother T.

Stas Mavrides and John Fretz

We Are Only One Heart Live 1978

WHO'S TAKEN ALL THE MONEY?

ALL I NEED IS YOU  (Sung by Jackson & Melody)

MAGDA THE SEA WITCH

Intro
Oh that Magda – you better watch your step with that lady...
and that goes for that cat of hers too!

Verse 1
She doesn’t do it for the money
She doesn’t need that anymore
It’s not for fortune or the fame, so lame
To her that would be such a bore.

She does it for a piece of your soul
Collecting pieces for the whole
Creating power that no one has ever seen
Call it crazy, you might, or call it obscene.

Chorus
She’s Magda the sea witch
And she’s on to you
She knows all your inner thoughts and fears
Magda the sea witch, call it voodoo if you please,
But don’t cross her, or she’ll have you,
Down on your knees! (Good God!)

Verse 2
Black is the color that she roles in
It permeates all of her life,
Part of her modus operandi...
Skulls, bones and spells, that cut like a knife.

Chorus, (guitar solo)

She’s Magda the sea witch
And she’s on to you
She knows all your inner thoughts and fears
Magda the sea witch, call it voodoo if you please,
But don’t cross her, or she’ll have you,
Down on your knees! (Good God!)

Oh Maggie, puta a spell on you, Magda
Oh Maggie, gonna see right through you.
Step outta line and she'll cut you down to size
You better listen to what I'm telling you. (2x)

Magda!!

THE GREAT OCEAN COMPROMISE (about Jacques the Whaler)

The Great Ocean Compromise  (Jacques the Whaler)


    verse:
When I get old, who will drive a nail in my side
And when I’m not here, who will say they laughed when I cried

   chorus:
If not for a drunken sailor
No one would ever realize
The part played by Jacques the Whaler
In writing the Ocean Compromise

   verse:
Certain old spies, always searching, looking for clues
Then they get lost, backtrack breathless, wait for some news

   Chorus


   middle 8
Oh, I know you, won’t be penniless
When I’m through, with your treasure chest



   verse
Life on the seas, lures a man from family ties
Proving his strength, fighting nature, surely he dies



    double chorus
Though none were as brave as were
None could recall a darker day
When bald headed Jacques the Whaler
Gave up his leg to get away

If not for a drunken sailor
No one would ever realize
The part played by Jacques the Whaler
In writing the Ocean Compromise

THE GREAT OCEAN COMPROMISE (Ballad Of Jacques The Whaler)

From the musical in development, "Off On A Holiday"

Lyrics:
IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY

Waitin’ for the dawn, I rise from the dead of night,
What in the world has happened to the light?
Maybe I’ll get away...set sail by southern skies.
Pray for the stars to guide me, just to set things right.

Chorus:
It’s a beautiful day
In the strangest of times
But we’re here anyway
So let’s make it shine.
There’s a light in your eyes
And a wound in my heart
Yeah, it’s only a lie that keeps us apart.

A thousand yesterdays, with the wind in our sails,
Now we pass our days, just waiting on the shore.
Distant voices wail, the cries for sanity,
While madmen shout them down, to quell the tide of humanity.

Chorus:
It’s a beautiful day
In the strangest of times
But we’re here anyway
So let’s make it shine.
