THAT IS WHAT DETROIT IS YEARNING TO HAVE AGAIN...I'VE BEEN TRAINING FOR THE DOUBLE BACKED BACK BEAT...

I caught you looking pretty
On the color TV
Counting out your poses
Strictly business please
Left me to the doorman and an icy breeze 
in Fat City
Fat city full of promises 
Like a furnace burning emptiness
What do you do with the loneliness?
Do you take it home to bed?

Fat City Jam Vx

Recorded in Astoria, New York with Jarred on drums.

Sea of Dreams

Hymn 383

Leander's Laocoon

Co-written with Lawrence Gottlieb

A clown in a uniform clenches a fist
Says some innocents don’t exist
Black, white, or yellow
The blood flows red
And the stories are silent
On the fields of the dead.

But the sky is still blue
And love takes root right where it can
Still looks like a butcher block to me.
Divorce in a family
Divorce in the family of man.

A mob goes riot and something takes hold.
Whatever it is, it ain’t got no soul.
Crucified ambition’s insecurity
Now polish up the liar
For an empty screen.

But the sky is still blue
And love takes root right where it can
Still looks like a butcher block to me.
Divorce in a family
Divorce in the family of man.

Butter up the bullets for the sacred cows.
The order of the day is don’t ask how.
We’re killing each other, call it self-defense.
Now hate’s more common that good old common sense.

But the sky is still blue
And love takes root right where it can
Still looks like a butcher block to me.
Divorce in a family
Divorce in the family of man.

DivorceMP3

Satire of sorts:

Twenty five years of illusion
Summed up in the lies we speak
Twenty five years of confusion
We've wrecked the paths we seek.
