I Didn't Do It
Didn't do it
Wasn't me
No one want's to take
Responsibility
(repeat)
Pushin' shovin'
On that factory line
No time to smell the daisy's
We got a dead line
To pollute the oceans
Earth and the sky's
Pollute the mind of the children
But if we make a greasy buck
Then who the fuck cares (repeat)
(chorus)
Rainbows
All over these city street
Where the water and the oil
And the sunshine meet
I try to see the good in everything
But you cant lie
Cant lie to me
About red tape
And welfare lines
The rich get richer
And the poor do time (repeat)
(chorus)
Come on...
We are the children
Of the revolution
Been takin' notes
And payin' attention
We watched our parents
Sweat and slave
And all you gave them
Was a ball and chain
And We watched you murder
All of our saints and heroes
Watched it right on the television
It's bang, bang, bang
Shoot um up
Your dead, your dead
(chorus)
Love is Spiritual
Love is patience
Love is kind
True love is gonna stick it out
Till the end of time
Because
Krishna knew
Jesus knew and
Buddha knows
What I know about you baby
Oh, oh, oh
That this love is spiritual baby
Oh, oh, oh
Spiritual baby
Love is gentle
Love takes time
Gonna build it like a bridge
From your heart to mine
One brick at a time
Cause Emerson knew
Whitmen knew
Sapho knows
What I know about you baby
Oh, oh, oh
That this is poetry baby
Oh, oh, oh
Poetry baby
Well you get out the bricks and mortar
You start building up one another
We Ain't got time
To be holding one other down
(repeat)
I'll lift you up
You're gonna lift me up
(repeat)
Gonna see how high
High can be
Baby you and me
Are you a believer
Do you believe
Well lay your hands
Upon the television screen
Somebody
Somewhere in the house
Get on the mic
And witness tonight
If you build your house
On a rock of spiritual love
When those dark storm clouds
Come rollin’ in
You’ll have nothing to be afraid of
(no reason to be afraid now baby doll)
Cause is aint’ about the color of your skin
The way you wear your cloths
The way you do your hair
It’s got to come from within
From the inside out
Let your love light
Shine, shine, shine
Oh, yes
Let your love light
Shine, shine, shine on just like
So Journer knew
Sheva knew
Amachi knows
What I know about you baby
(oh mamma, mamma)
That this love is spiritual baby
Oh, oh, oh
Spiritual baby
Let your love light shine
(from the L to the O to the V to the E)
Let your love light shine
Rollin' Stone
People get expensive educations
Use big old fancy words
To describe hypothetical situations
But it comes out you baby
Natural as the day
You know me
I've done burnt
All my bridges
Now I'm stuck in town
And from where I'm lookin'
There's no place to go from here
But down to the bowery
Where no one will question me
an get drunk with lose women
And U.S. veterans
Then everyone gets to arguin'
That's my queue
It's time to roll again
Cause I'm a rollin' stone
Yea you got to know
I was born a rollin'
You know I live a rollin'
You know I die a rollin'
I'm a rollin' stone
Yea you got to know
My family is a rollin'
My pals are a rollin'
The band is a rollin'
We all rollin' stones
People get lucrative occupations
Work night and day for a family
That never gets to see um
But You and me baby were gonna
Buck the system
Sell records out the trunk
And get odd jobs when we need um
We got no time clock
We got no 9-5
We got the music, friends and family
To keep us alive
(chorus)
I breath in through my nose
And out through my mouth
takin' it all in
Then I let it out
Sittin' shotgun to your gypsy love
And I can't wait
I can't wait
To get on the open road with you
Life of playin' music in the bars
And at night sleepin' underneath the stars
Makin' something beautiful
In a world full of ugly
Ya we are gonna
Make something beautiful
In a world full of ugly
(chorus)
Grass of Today
Baby if you want me to go
You just say the word
And honey I'll be gone
But baby if you want me stay
Then I say baby lets give it a whirl
Cause I'm up for an adventure
Anytime with you baby
We don't have to
Talk about tomorrows
The end or the rest of our life
We can just sit and enjoy
Each others company
Laugh a lot, dance, sing and play
In the green, green grass
Of today, today
(repeat)
So come on baby, baby
Sweet heart
Sugar pie
Let me in
I'm standing at your back door
With this lamp light
Shinning on my head
Is your mamma home?
Is your daddy home?
Don't you think
We could go home
To your home
And watch the record
Go round and round
On the phonograph
Baby oh,
Darling, darling, darling
Love me
Darling love me
Like there ain't no end
Like there ain't never gonna be
Just like Marvin Gay said:
If the sprit moves you
Let me groove you
Let me bring your lovin' on
Down, down, down
Let me bring your lovin'
Cause you move me
You groove me
You send me
You rock me
You sooth me
You move
You keep me rokin'
All night long
Ya baby all night long
Letter To Denine
So the other morning
When I called
And your voice filtered
Through the line
All my distress dissolved
Like a sugar cube
On the toung of Timothy Leary
And I didn’t even have to talk
About what was wrong
It didn’t even matter anymore
I don’t know if I told ya
How I missed
Dinner at Denine’s
And watching you sleep
See cause I can’t sleep at night
That’s when my head starts to turn right
So your snoring
I’m giggling
Looking at your big mouth open
Thinking about
where that void might be leading
Maybe time travel?
Out of body astro-trips
On the road to the great It
So I’m lookin’ in your mouth
When I’m lookin’
I see a soul well reflection of my self
It seems like it’s such a struggle
Just for you to breath
And I can’t breath
God dame it somebody
Somewhere open a window
So we can get some air in here
Help me to help my self
From Suffocating on the never ending
Buffet table of choice
Always gettin’ caught up
In this or that
Stuck here or there
Out of money havin’ to hustle
Means you got to lean on somebody
Who is leanin’ back
Sayin’ “look at all I do for you”
And I don’t get lonely anymore honey
I get alone and lock the door
Talk to my self
Walk my self through the floor
news announcer says:
“We have a power outage
It could take days”
Ha, ha, but I’m use to delays
So I get out my piggy bank
And count my change
Lord knows I’m use to change
So I meditate on a mountain
It don’t move but it sure don’t stay the same
Scenery out side my window
For ever evolvin’
And I always got a smile
For a child of any age
Cause life is like a freshly cut flower
Life it like a freshly cut
See how many life times
You can fit into a circle
And how many circle you can
Fit into the circle
And it looks like there’s
Trouble up ahead
But you tell me when the road
Ever looks clear
Cause there ain’t no free lunches
There ain’t no free rides
And the only free cheese
Is in the mouse trap baby
And their building a better one everyday
It’s like puttin’ your car up on the jack
Hittin’ the gas
Lettin’ it spin
It’s good to get it out
But then it’s time
To let it down
And get it in
Season to reconnect the disconnection
Mean while my softwares getting’ wet
Heading in that direction
High…
Hands on the wheels
Blinkin’
Keepin’ the sweet outta my eyes
Thinkin’, thinkin’ about that girl
In Detroit at the Greyhound station
Who said:
“Life is like a little goldfish
In a goldfish bowl
You put that little goldfish
In a larger bowl
And that little fish
Is bound to grow”
Then her casual good byes
Now you’ve got
A half-cocked smile on your face
Cause John Lee Hooker
Is on the radio singin’
Boom, Boom, Boom
And your going over and over
That tarot card reading you got
Last week in your head
What did she mean
When she said I see your turban
Unraveling in the very near future
Boom, Boom, Boom
You hear a far off voice
In your far off past
In fact it’s your far off self
Up on the stage at the Raft
Sayin’ well as far as life is concerned honey
Ya, as far as life is concerned honey
You can sit in the back seat
You can sit in the passenger seat
Hell you can even get behind the wheel
Or you can
Or you can
Climb out on the hood
Feel the wind against your face
Rubbin’ your fingers Across
the texture of the moment Sayin’
Now, now, now, now, now
Beat on the Road
Buddha's on the corner
Krishna's on the roof
And all the Goppie girls
Are In my bedroom
And hey daddy-o
You really turn my top
You got to listen to the sounds
Of the wheels go round and round
And round and round
And let that be your mantra baby
It goes to show ya
You never know
You got to live by the seat of your pants
When your beat on the road
Beat on the road
(repeat)
Cut outta Hamtown
Baby on a dog
To meet these hippy cats
With a big school bus
To go to Mexico
And smoke herbal jazz cigarettes
At the temples
And communicate with God
But the N.Y.P.D. stole the bus
So... joined a political protest
To end the war on drugs
had a romantic endeavor
With a hacker named Spinner
Plotted to over through the government
With his laptop computer
But, we didn't get far
I ended up alone
Down on S. Street in Philly
Just a playin' my guitar
Which goes to show ya
Ya never know
You got to live by the seat of your pants
When you beat on the road
Beat on the road
(Repeat)(scat)
It's hip-hop
To the tip-top
Pinpoint of evolution
And it don't stop
Don't quit
And It's a one more
One more push
And we're through
What are we goinna do
You askin' me baby
I'm askin' you
chicken little
Don't you know
Your Bible verses are true
And I'm an alchemist
And you're a pacifist
And I'm a pugilist
It's a duck swing
Groove this
Move this
I'm a voice cryin' out
In the wilderness
Wilderness
Prepare ye the way
Prepare ye the way
For the power of the universe
Comin' at you live like
A wholly rollin' vibe
From the other side
Comin' To unite the tribe
The red, yellow
The back and the white
With the mother earth
And the father sky
So keep you vision high
Cause ya never know
You got to live by the seat of your pants
When your beat on the road
Beat on the road
(repeat)
Cause ya never ever
You never ever know
No you never know
You got to live by the seat
Of your pants when your
Grove by the seat of your pants
Live by the seat of your pants
When your beat, beat, beat, on the road
Be Myself
Lace up your combat boots
Baby We're goin' downtown
Let all the straights
Go ahead and stare us down
I got something to prove
But I ain't got nothing to lose
Goin' to be my self
If it is the last thing
Come on baby
Last thing
That I do
(Repeat)
I'm not afraid and I'm
I'm not ashamed
gonna a live my life
My own dame way
And what you call a sin
And disgrace
Puts this smile on my face
I'm goin' to be my self
If it's the last thing
Last thing
Last thing
Last thing that I do
(repeat)
oh, no, no mamma
I'm not like that
Fear rids the perfect line
Of the square that y'all been livin' in
Oh, no daddy
I'm not like them
They all like wolves
Just a circlin' in their pacts
I was born in to this box
Yes I was
I was born in to this box
But I can't seem to stay
Inside the lines
There's always part of me
Hangin' out
Oh no not this again
When I get out here man
They all just stare on in
I’m livin’ loud and I’m
Feelin’ proud cuz your
Biggest walk in closet
In your biggest mansion
Is still to small for me
Small for me
Gonna be my self
If it’s the last thing
Come on baby
If it’s the last thing
Come on darlin’
If it’s last thing
that I do
Mamma Look at Me (So and so)
So and so
Said that and that
By the time it got to me
Some strange act
but the junkies in the back room
Livin' in the fast line
In slow motion
And I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Have a good time before I die
Before I die
So mamma look at me
Mamma look at me
Look at me
I'm on top of the world
The whole wide world
(repeat)
And I ain't never going to fall
Off for any kind of edge
Cause the earth is round
And Just cause you die
Don't mean it's gonna
Stop, stop, stop, stop
So mamma look at me
Mamma look at me
Look at me
I'm all turning on the world
The whole wide world
(repeat)

What it's like to really burn
Ya I'm gonna show you
I' gonna show you
Cause mamma I can hear
The angels calling
Spinnin' above my sick bed
Tearing me down
(repeat)
Now for years
(repeat)
Sittin' back in your
Plush and cush easy chair
Lookin' at me
With far away eyes
Where nothing gets done
And nothing gets tried
And your wasting all your
(repeat)
Precious energy's
To be tearin' me down
Tearin' me down
(repeat)
So mamma look at me
Mamma look at me
Look at me
I'm turning on the world
The whole wideworld
(repeat)
I'm gonna show you
What it's like to really burn
Yea I'm gonna show you

Cause mamma I can hear
The angels callin'
Spinnin' above my death bed
Any Given Day
This Could be
Any Given day
You could find your self
In a middle of a hurricane
Have I showed you my scars
Do you
Know the stories behind
My tattoos
Have you see the photographs of
Where I've been
Have I've ever told you
What I'm gonna do
This could be
Any given moment
You could find your self
The only actor in the play
Can you take away my tears
Can you
Heal my pain
Can you stop this movie
That keeps on playing
Over and over again
In my brain
Frame by frame by frame
Frame by frame
I find my self
A sad clown
With a happy face
I just wanna let you know
That I think that your beautiful
And that I love you baby
I truly do
I just wish you felt the same way
same way to
Never Gonna Die
I've been waiting for the news
Of your crash and burn
And I said
thank you so much
For your positive thoughts
And energy and
When I get to nowhere, nowhere
Daddy you'll be the first one that I call
You'll be the first one
You'll be the first one
Cause I'm going to climb to the top
Of the atmosphere and take a free
Fall dive right down to the planet earth
And light up the sky
Just for a moments worth
You can put your hand to your mouth
Take a deep breath
And say...
Oooo aha
Like a shooting star
Like a shooting star
Like a shooting star
Ah baby, like a shooting star
Like a shooting
I ain't never goinna die
Cause I'll be the earth
And I'll be the sea
I'll be you
And you can be me
I ain't never
You ain't never
We aint' never
Gonna die
(repeat)
We ain't never
Ever ever
Gonna die |
