Who’s the guy in yellow up the road?
He’s a kind of mellow looking dude

Motivated fellow looking good.

The Boy Prince

In a dream

It’s just a summer time
It’s just a summertime dream

Things aren’t what they seem
I think I’m living in a dream
Feels like a recurring theme
I think I’m living in a summertime dream

Imagination
Inner creation
Vivid illusion
Such a confusion

Things aren’t what they seem
I think I’m living in a dream
Feels like a recurring theme
I think I’m living in a summertime dream

It’s just a summer time
It’s just a summertime dream

In A Dream

Checkin’ Out

Well I’m ridin’ along on my Harley D
Checkin’ out the talent, just my brothers and me.
You don’t have the right to tell me what I should be
With the wind in my hair, I just wanna be free.

I wear a bandana but I couldn’t give a damn about
A corpore sano or an anima sana.
Ain’t no glamour living in the manner
Of a central planner with a sanitary banner.

Hot damn
Lock down
Checkin’ out
Checkin’ out, checkin’ out, I’m checkin’ out of this town

My natural mode is to follow the road
Another zip code, another episode.
I’d rather freeload than be followin’ a code
It’s makin’ me explode with a mental overload.

I’m headin’ for the border with a video recorder
Anxiety disorder if my papers ain’t in order.
You really can’t afford to be a summer skateboarder 
When you ain’t a supporter of the new world order. 

Hot damn
Lock down
Checkin’ out
Checkin’ out, checkin’ out, I’m checkin’ out of this town

The rivers run dry and the seas acidify
The snow says goodbye to the mountains on high.
They force us to comply. If not we’re gonna die.
What does it signify? Just ask your mind’s eye. 

Well I’ve been around the world on my Harley D
But I haven’t found the place they call the land of the free.
Nothin’ happens locally, it’s hittin’ me globally
It’s gettin’ kinda warm in here, it’s too hot for me.

Hot damn
Lock down
Checkin’ out
Checkin’ out, checkin’ out, I’m checkin’ out of this town

Checkin Out

Searching for you

I’ve been searching
I’ve been searching
I’ve been searching for you

Don’t know what I 
Don’t know what I 
Don’t know what I can do

I’ve been searching for you
Thought I had you in view.
Like a mirage on a summer’s day
You were here but you faded away.

Don’t know what I can do
I keep thinking of you
I’m rehearsing all the words I’d say
If our paths cross each other some day.

I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting for you

I see shadows
Only shadows
Only shadows of blue

I’ve been waiting for you
Thought you gave me a clue
Like a snowflake on a winter’s day
You were here but you floated away.

I see shadows of blue
In the sky but not you
I’m just hoping that you’d look my way
If our paths cross each other some day.

I’ve been hoping
I’ve been hoping
I’ve been hoping anew

Never doubting
Never doubting
Never doubting in you

I’ve been hoping anew
That you’re not passing through
Like a schooner on a tranquil day
Now you're here, you’re not drifting away.

Never doubting in you
Now I know that it’s true
Living parallelly all the way
Till our paths came together today.

Searching For You

Song for Ukraine

We’ll get through
But I wonder how
When a new
Set of circumstances now
Has control.

I remember what it was when we were free
When we had the right to choose 
Now we see
That we had so much to lose:
Our true role.

Ukraine

Song For Ukraine

Mash up of Wicked Games and This is not America

This Is Not A Wicked Game

On the day that I was born 

In the light before the dawn
In the twinkling of the fading stars
In the strumming of guitars
In the distant sounding horn

In the branches of the yew
In the texture of a fleeting cloud
In the shadow of a shroud
In the scent of morning dew 


In the rustling of the leaves
In the flutter of a startled bird
In the far off thunder heard
In the earth that shakes and heaves

In the trembling of the ground
In the feeling of a strange unease
In the sudden gust of breeze
In the air a rising sound

Fate rode on a unicorn
Earth trapped in a ring of fire
Life stood on a tightrope wire
On the day that I was born 


In the breach a blinding flash
In the river of a scorching glow
In the pyroclastic flow
In the surge of burning ash

In the tide of molten stone
In the burning of what once was life
In the spectre of a knife
In the castle she’s alone

Fate rode on a unicorn
Earth trapped in a ring of fire
Life stood on a tightrope wire
On the day that I was born

The Day That I Was Born (featuring Mr Mole)

Les sensations de glisse

Chilling on a summer afternoon
But the rain is falling
Got to find a way across the dune
‘Cause the surf is calling

Never going to find a way
Till I’m riding a wave, together with you
Never going to find the day
Till I’m matching the rhyme and rhythm with you 

Vivid atmosphere
Repli de plaisir
Blended with the scene
Flux d'adrénaline
Spiritual calm
Quitte le mélodrame
Find an inner peace
Les sensations de glisse

Climbing up and over sandy hills
Now the sun is shining
Get into the flowing natural skills
In the silver lining 

Never going to find a way
Till I’m riding a wave, together with you
Never going to find the day
Till I’m matching the rhyme and rhythm with you 

Vivid atmosphere
Repli de plaisir
Blended with the scene
Flux d'adrénaline
Spiritual calm
Quitte le mélodrame
Find an inner peace
Les sensations de glisse

Les sensations de glisse

Les sensations de glisse
