Dick sent me this great instrumental long ago, full of details and different sections. I was too busy then, now I've enjoyed working on it at last !!

Letra  / Translated Lyrics:

(Coro:  /  Choir)
De coger café yo vengo  /  From collecting coffee I come
A coger café voy  /  To collect coffee I go

(Solista:  /  Lead:)
Quisiera ver lo que no vi,  /  I’d like to see what I didn’t see,
quisiera ir donde no fui,  /  I’d like to go where I didn’t go,
quisiera hacer lo que nunca hice…  /  I’d like to do what I never did…
… pero veo lo que no se ve,  /  … but I can see what cannot be seen,
voy donde nadie nunca fue,  /  I go where no one ever went,
y hago lo que no hace usted. /  and I do what you don’t do.

De Coger Café (with Oorlab)

This is an old Neil Young song from his album On the Beach. The very talented Chris Maness is on guitars and high vocals, while I'm on bass, synth, banjo, and low vocals. The rhythm is a looper I boosted from BandLab. I've always loved this song and used to sing it to my son in his crib. We hope you enjoy it as well.

LYRIC

Far along the beaten path
No end in sight 
What supplies we have are poor and running low
We’ve so far to go

Some split off
We’ve seen their camps
Maps they study by weakening lamps
The light will die out and then
They’ll join us again

We march on
It’s our purpose
 We march on
We endure thus we survive
And that’s our true goal
Stay alive

In the distance mountains loom
The darkening skies mean winter soon
We’ll find an old tree down
Build a fire to gather round
But not a shelter
We’ve lost that skill
Our arms are weak
As is our will
Besides we don’t have time
There are mountains we must climb

We march on
Tired but trudging
We march on
No use judging
Why we do
It’s just another day
to get through

Elders tell of a homeland
Their own elders told them of and
Maybe it’s all true
Who knows what they knew
But maybe it’s all true

The trail is lost
We’re on our own 
Our courage sapped
Our fear has grown
We can’t give into dread
Salvation lies ahead

So we march on….

We March On

HINDSIGHT - (JunkHeap (c) Refixed Apr 2023 / (c) Aug 02, 2003)

Things could have been so different, 
if they could have been done again. 
Countless times we see the chance, 
and let them go, they wont come again 

He remembered the glory and strength of his youth, 
wasted his older years yearning for its return. 
Never realized that wisdom is more than a fair trade; 
Beauty in ones' own introspection.

Things could have been so different, 
if they could have been done again. 
Countless times we see the chance, 
and let them go, they wont come again 

They never will...

Synth impro from the night - I just wanted to make a quick and easy piece and its nostalgic vibe reminded of Tokyo, which I was lucky to visit 5 years ago.

SERPENT'S TOOTH

The serpent’s now entwined 
Around the garden
Poisoned fangs dripping
With lies and corruption

Sowing seeds of hate,
Doubt ‘n fear, and seduction
in the end all it seeks 
is our lives, our
destruction

[chorus]
Falling from icy fingers
Bitten apple 
Rolls away

The one who warned us
Did so in love,
And good faith

So we can choose to 
follow the Truth
And be saved

Or worship the lie,
And by ourselves,
go our own way
to woe

The apple’s rot 
Poisons all of creation
Bloated with lies
Crawling with flies
And deception

The poison lies within
the serpent’s tooth
Stealing our breath
corrupting what’s good
and true

With God’s grace,
we can pry ourselves loose,
Or in the serpent’s grasp,
We are consumed

[chorus]

We’re so far from home
Our goodness stripped
To the bone

Paradise lost,
And to the dogs,
It's been tossed

The fire of wrath
Rises among us all
Drunk with our pride
We celebrate the fall

The new wine is
the antidote
The one who gave it
The only Way to be saved
From woe
