Piles of snow still on the ground
Topped with blackened grit
Can't wait 'till the month of May
to move away from it

Though everyday I feel this pain
and I cannot move away
The skies are dark and full of grey
Blue Rain

I know I shouldn't hold this hurt
I just can't shake its reigns
So whip the horse and trot away
Blue Rain

She's racing 'round the second turn
A quarter length of gain
The leader now has blown away
Blue Rain

Stuck again in second gear
The engines blown again
Smoke-filled tears are poring down
Blue Rain

And every time they knock me down
Get on my feet again
Just to let them knock me down
On my *** again

But, I'll get up and fight them all
I know how with my pen
I'll beat them dead with wit my friend
I will be champion

It's been almost five years now
Laraine was put to rest
I think of her still everyday
Because she was the best

And every time I think of her
My blue tears fall like rain
If I could collect them all
They'd fill Lake Michigan

More than enough to drown a pool,
A brook, a stream, a lake,
An ocean filled with put me downs
Blue blue blue rain

Last summer girl came into town
She put me to a test
I've torn up every inch of room
to look-up her address

I hope that she will e-mail me
I need a friend again
Someone to believe in me
Soak up my blue blue rain

Tell me why she had to leave
Lie to me again
Tell it to the heart that bleeds
The blood of my blue rain

The life of the party
Yeah, that's me
Nobody wants to hear that
  
I should have kept
Those stories to myself
or kept them upon a shelf
  
A pity *** pile of you know what
A waste and
Not even a man
  
Get on with your life
And get over it
Don't ever think that you can't
  
I finally quit drinking
I finally quit smoking
Yes, I have
  
And given the chance
I may smile again
I may smile again
  
But, I've had such a life
That I can't pretend
That this torment will ever end
  
So I try to erase
All the pain I have seen
Close my eyes please
  
And leave me alone
Because I cry alone
Because I cry alone

Good Grief
What a waste of time
Always something slowing me down
Here online
Ready for the bomb
heed my warning
don't waste your time

I felt the pain of
a burning man dying as he
haunted my dream

Those people at the shore
and Coney Island
Tanning when they know it's bad
and that's not the worse part
They think they can swim and live
You can't go in that water
Fifty years now
without death splashing into your mouth
You can't even breathe the air
The air is melting the ice cap
That's Hot
The worms flow the faucet
filters work
live longer

An eagle flies over the Hackensack
It's ebb tide and the flood is gone
  
Heather came back from the doctor today
Three more weeks for the baby
  
They play ball games in Foschini Park
Where eagles lie in their nest

almost all-purpose
that device held by hand but
it won't do dishes

George Walker Bush freed the people of Iraq.
Last night I had an eerie feeling that the people
he had freed moved to France.

Sometimes I dig deep, way inside
But there is nothing there that is left
Except for the excruciating pain you gave
Me, I have other kinds of debt

You knew the rules before you popped the pills
And mass hysteria set in
A cold cup of hard scotch made it
Made it difficult to live again

You can not escape all you have done here
If you're lucky, only half of what you did
Look here, I'm running off the track again
And I don't even know where this train will end

Everything that is real has an ending
Sometimes sad but, that's the way of life
If we took away the hurt and pain & suffering
There would be nothing we could write about
Nothing we could write about in the end

Shave that thing off
your mustachio
Comb your hair
Now, look at that
Watch your manners
Don't past wind fast
And don't don't don't
make that laugh

    Chorus

Don't Don't Don't
Make that laugh
Don't Don't Don't
Make that laugh
Die off from a heart attack
But don't don't don't
make that laugh

v2

Don't do nothing
It's Saturday
Nod out on
the couch all day
plan a date
a night that's ' gas
But don't don't don't
make that laugh

     Repeat Chorus

V3

Spend all day
just watch T.V.
Hop on a bus
to the city
Go without
taking a bath
but don't don't don't
make that laugh

Natural beauty
comes to an end
to create a new beginning

Brother,

  You know now that I have felt
your torment.  A beaten battered
life.  You showed me what to do if
ever I could climb up to the moon.
I remember back in '73 you were
show thrilled about your overalls,
you had to so them to me and rosey
off the great white way, outside an Abc.
I could say a lot of things about you.
And they would all be good.  Like you,
I don't judge people by their faults.
I didn't know what you were saying
earlier this year.  I guess we could have
spent more time but it would not be any
better than time already spent.
My friend
and
                                             BROTHER

ruddy cane dreaming
clouds ascend gently, pain seeks
softly, mobs melt, meek

I can not sleep
And I want to eat
My heart keeps beating
And I still keep working at
Defeating my dues
To make a new
World in order to
Survive all my nightmares
In the dark
In the dark you screamed
In the dark
In the dark
I thought that you would never leave
You were mean in the dark
And I screamed in the dark

Words on paper
Bah!
Useless!

Words Spoken
softly
Ah! - Priceless!
