Behind the Door

she is there
now behind the door
no one can see her
nobody can know for sure

will she reach
inside the candy jar
will she frolick
alone in the candy store

giving up those sweets
not all that easy
no one is watching
maybe just a little more

maybe just a simple taste
close her eyes and so enjoy
she is there behind that door
and no one else can know for sure

but in my heart I take that trust
inside of hers I know she must
show the strength to endure
because her word is true and pure

There once was a man

There once was a man of simple thoughts
his dreams however carried him to a higher plateau
that left him feeling empty when he awoke
in his dreams he played games with angels
he sang beautiful songs with sinners and saints  
he knew how and when the world began
he even felt the touch of God on his shoulder

but when he awoke from his dreams
he felt sad and of severe despair
for with each moment's passage
his memory of his dreams faded away
he no longer could remember the names
of the angels he had played with just moments earlier
he could not recall the songs he had sang
songs with kings and Queens and paupers
he could no longer feel the impression left
on his shoulder by the hand of God

he wanted to return to his dreams
where all concerns and fears were non existent
where angels were not that different
from the children he had played with when he was younger
the sinners and saints were former
friends acquaintances rivals enemies lovers    
the perfect balance of love and understanding
the way it should be
the way it could be
if only this man could accept truth

My Lonely Heart

she has been away
for only a few hours
yet my heart feels as though
it has been days
she doesn't know
how badly
I miss her
she can never know
how deep
she has settled
inside my heart
I try to keep busy
I try to not think of her
I try to fool my heart
it doesn't work
it never has
it never will
I can only hope for
her safety
her peace of mind
her happiness
and maybe
every once in a while
she will think of me
and feel my lonely heart
reaching out to her
across the miles

1 Good Reason

I cannot think why you would
come to me
other than in my dreams
thinking of all the time
that has passed by now
and yet it still seems
you must have been so lonely
searching for something
to fill that empty spot
someone who would hear you
and whisper words of love
give you everything they've got
to let you know you were important
you mattered in their life
you mattered in their heart
you really were that important
and you shared your love
so they loved you from the start
I guess that is the reason
you loved them too
for more than just a season
your treasures shared
with them forever
that is 1 very good reason

Ask Me No Questions

ask me no questions
and I will never tell you lies
don't look for cherries
inside of blackberry pies
you have all the answers
right there inside your heart
so the only question you should ask
do your words create a piece of art

ask me no questions
and the answer you will not fear
there's no need for perfection
beyond the stratosphere
for the truth lies right here
it's only a moment away
practice by loving everyone
every single solitary day

ask me no questions
unless you seek the truth
like who was that I saw you with
inside the kissing booth
if it was just your reflection
that flashed inside my eye
I must have been walking in a cloud
and now I wonder why

why don't you ask me questions
don't you want to know
how it is inside my world
a wild and crazy show
you see my mind has holes inside
and some have no way out
they lead to nowhere particular
and leave you filled with doubt

April Fool

It was the 1st of April, I had made up my mind,
to take the plunge, leave the worries behind,
I got down on my bended knee, and said this to you
please my love, will you be my bride?,
my heart was pounding, all nervous inside,
I closed my eyes, crossed my fingers, what more could I do

you looked down at me, and gave me a smile,
everything froze, for it seemed a long while,
but I could tell by the look in your eyes, the news was bad
you said that you cared, deeply for me,
but marrying me, just could never be,
It knocked me back baby, now I'm going mad

I misunderstood, the signs you see,
got confused, just thinking about me,
I assumed you thought, I was really way to cool    
but the things that I thought, were a mere dream,
too much time spent, with my friend Jim Beam,
it's just so obvious now, I'm the April fool

Please don't tell anyone about this,
let me figure out a new plan,
I don't want to be called the April Fool

Talisman

let me be your lucky charm
put me in your pocket
let me protect you from all harm
keep my picture in your locket

let me chase away your blues
I'll hold you ever tighter
let me be your forever muse
I'll be your lover and your fighter

let me kiss away your fears
I want to be your shinning Knight
let me wipe away all the tears
I want to be your shinning star so bright

let me hold your loving heart
I want to be your everything I can
your *** of gold at the rainbow's end
I want to be your talisman

Curse of the Thirst

as time winds down my physical life
I have become more aware of the curse
the curse bestowed the thirst of knowledge
and each day getting worse

the significance of my insignificance
the more knowledge I obtain
the less I understand of this universe
the more pain upon my brain

the depth and scope so glorius
the size gigantic to microscopic
distances so off the charts
the beauty observed still another topic

the fruit of the knowledge tree
its taste beyond forbidden
a natural drug it draws you in
seeking secrets that are hidden

for all I know I still no nothing
I feel strained but still want more
how can one logically understand
all the magic beyond the door

and though the pain gathers strength
I rub my hands with spit
I must search forever more
I simply cannot quit

continue on with humble heart
accept the gifts bestowed
I was given the gift of wondering
and my efforts most truly owed

The Princess and the frog

time and distance had taken its toll
old and weathered and somewhat forgotten
he hopped on tired legs
all too often shunted by his former mate
he wondered if there was more
he wondered if there was a reason
he was no longer driven
he no longer hoped
he no longer dreamed
he missed the passion
but knew not how to recover
his dreams
his desires
then he stumbled into a garden
it was a new garden
one he had never before seen
he wondered why he was here
he wondered if he was just lost
then hello was whispered
he looked around seeing no one
then another hello a bit louder
he looked up and staring down
staring down at him
was a beautiful flower
a sunflower
a sunflower with big beautiful eyes
she batted her eyes and smiled
he was amazed she had noticed
none noticed him these days
are you lost the sunflower asked
I think I may be he answered
well welcome to my garden
my name is the Princess Perly
what is your name
I am just an old frog was his reply
and it matters not my name
but I am glad to meet you Princess Perly
they talked for a long time
she finally had to leave
and he was sorry she had to go
but he returned to the garden the next day
and they met again and shared
shared thoughts and feelings
she was so kind and sweet
and beautiful beyond his dreams
slowly he fell in love with the princess
well he kind of suspected it was rather quicker
day after day
they would meet in the garden
he finally told her
that he was in love with her
she blushed but did not answer
time moved on
his desires returned
his dreams returned
the princess finally gave in to his heart
she told him she also loved him
his world would never be the same
she kissed him gently
and his life would never be the same
though time would change things
they stayed deeply in love
they stayed the best of friends
though he was still a frog
he knew he was someone again
he was loved by a Princess
and that made him smile...

Mirror Mirror

hey you there, yes you, do you have a minute
I'd like to talk to you if you can spare some time
I have this situation I need to seriously discuss
it's about my friend, I think I am committing a crime

hey, don't point that finger at me you ***
you are not guilt free buddy boy
and knock that smirk off that face before I do
you act like you bring nothing but joy

I mean you were the one that told her
yes you were the one that told her I love you
I know you think that is all you need to say
but what can you offer other than words you fool

you better come up with a much better plan
one that makes much more sense than that
another one who has the right has already asked
and all you do is offer her words, words in a chat

oh I don't have any doubt that you sincerely care
but your selfish ways have created a royal mess
do you think you can stand tall and display a pair
can you just back away, believe she won't think less

I think it is now perfectly clear your reasons for joy
you love her because she has expressed her love too
and you find that so dam hard to just let go
but we both know it's the only right thing to do

so mirror mirror on the wall reflecting that sad sad face
can you find the will to prove that you really care
you would think that between the two of you
one would find the courage, I double dare

Six String Theory

tachyons protons neutrons galore
theoretical bombardment of mystical thought
jazzy country twisted rock knocking at my door
bending string blister melody sought

uptempo slowed down bugs bunny hop
octavial flated fifths and tones augmented    
temperatures rising and I can't stop
missing musical chair sadly lamented

quick step spanish flamenco dancing feet
growling woofers and screaming tweeters
employing Lester's capo and magic wand
burned rubber top down blowing two seaters

it matters not how you stroke it
turn the preamp clockwise to 8 point 5 deary
power chords belly flopping your wammy bar
close your eyes and dream a six string theory

An Angels Tears

she cried frozen rain
the tears had gotten cold
look inside to see the stain
another crease another fold
she loved the one she was with
but another had stolen her heart
she had no answers she pled the fifth
she did not know just where she should start
a painful heart creating all these chilling fears
so beautiful such a an innocence somehow gone astray
her saddened face now covered with an angels tears
now we both wonder how just how it got this way

Purgatory

I have been sent here to find redemption
or to seek purification
this mythical place of nowhere
to look down deep inside

trying hard to regain my freedom
my heart and soul totally lost
the petals fallen from the sunflower
I have nowhere else to hide

and though my eyes are wet and heavy
I try to see thru the spatial mist
hoping the princess will find me
my worlds of inner peace scream collide

her lips remain so clearly inviting
her eyes never leave my conscious mind
she has asked for her release once more
saying bye-bye the day MY music died

Gomer LePoet...

Deliciously Tempestuous

a fire burns inside her heart  
sending waves of passion all aglow
impetuous intensity
when she arrives you surely will know
her eyes will melt your very soul
leaving you wanting more
but you cannot contain her love
this beauty remains forever free  
her truculent tenderness
spins your heart a whirl
like the roses petals
belie her thorny *****
her untamed desires
will leave a feverish desire
for her touch

Kissed

I just kissed the lips of an angel
sparkling flashes fill my mind
my love for her spans all time and distance
though she is not here with me
I can feel her presence as I gaze
into the eyes of her reflection in my mind
I kissed her lips and felt the surge
of her warmth and love
her golden hair draped over her shoulder
framed out in her blue squiggly patterned shirt
as the days go by sometimes I wonder
will our love last against these odds
then today she writes me a note
telling me her gentle desires of making love
how her lips touched the reaching tower
how she lowered herself upon
the rigid saddle horn of her lover
excitement filled her voice
and entered my body
as did jealousy and hunger
now I look at her and know
how much I love her
and how desperately
I feel her
want her
need her ....

Roach clip Blues

yes I've been left out in the cold

nothing to cover up my head

not even a pinch of Acapulco gold

just cold turkey sandwiches instead


she left me here dry not high

I cannot find my Mary Jane

no word for many days gone by

so hard to cope with all the pain


thoughts of her still linger on

wishing for one last token kiss

cannot accept the fact she's gone

falling deeper down in the abyss


the clasp of my broken heart

so empty without the will to choose

have no idea where to start

to end this tune of roach clip blues

Searching

searching for the soft eyes
that melt my soul
with every glance my way

searching for the wanting lips
that make me burn
and take my breath away

searching for the golden heart
that loves me honestly
and tells me everyday

searching for the dreamer
who reaches for the stars
and wouldn't have it any other way

I know she is there
because I have seen her
I believe it was only yesterday

when she touched my heart
it was you .... I love you ....
is all I can say

The Burning Bush

fire falling from the sky
did it come from the place called Heaven
it has left us wondering why
the ancients say that it took seven

the prophets were they mere mortal men
or so much more we can't explain
to wonder about this earth back when
the possibilities tear at my brain

was the Father from the far deep space
an ancient alien in his ship of time
did he bring us to this place
profess his laws against every crime

handed down on tablets of clay
when all done shove comes to push
these things I think of every day
was that my master in the burning bush

Akashic Record

from the Sanskrit sky of outer space
connections to the world beyond
may you find concern written upon my face
motionless without a sound
the knowledge of time and futures past
the feeling of the worlds pain
reaching out with stones cast
between the falling drops of rain
the Mahabhuta words so wise
millions upon billions lives gone by
below the ground above the skies
do we share the stars inside
the son of Brahma examines the list
to find the evil and the peace
the tender dreams at long last kissed
recorded for the pasts returned release

Atom and Eve

a basic unit of  matter
it's more than magic up your sleeve
and out of all this gobbledy-goop
you wind up with the beautiful Eve

a dense centralized nucleus
surrounded by clouds of negative charge
shake them in a brown paper bag
and you come up with more than Curious George

stirred up protons and neutrons
except for the rascal hydrogen-1
chemical elements and Isotopes
but the beauty of you is what makes it fun

yes Eve was the Queen of all mothers
at least according to what we know
but was it the atoms of Adam's rib
or much more to this magnificent show

it seems the more that we understand
the more confused we become I believe
our world of constant amazement
much deeper than atom and Eve

Forbidden Lovers

kisses of fire
eyes all ablaze
we've taken our love
to a much higher phase

but we cannot touch
no we are not allowed
no exchanging glances
in a concert hall crowd

we speak of our passion
in a place called nowhereland
your grip so strong
upon my hand

keeping low out of sight
down below the covers
we must not be seen
we are forbidden lovers

6 pack of broken dreams

pop the top let another one go
It was just a dream I know
reaching up way to high
to pluck a diamond from the sky
tears of sadness tears of pain
falling from the heart like rain
one by one they have fallen
no more left to hear the callin'
time has slip slipped away
tomorrow is just another day
if I am lucky someone will hear
and stop my drowning in this sea of fear
but then again does it really matter
throw against the wall and watch it splatter

Mary Go Round

she lies in the garden her mind consumed in dreams
spinning this way then that way it seems
she can almost breathe in the smell of her lover
mixed in with the daffodils and lilacs and one other

her pretty blue dress flutters in the fall breeze
leaving her soft legs uncovered above the knees
she dreams his touch underneath but it is her own
skillfully manipulative fingers loosing free a moan

after all it is her temple this is her genuflection
wonders if her lover dreams of her in his reflection
she should go she knows that is the proper answer
but if she leaves  who then will lovingly romance her

spinning in the garden where wild kisses land galore
round and round goes Mary confused by this for sure
torn betwixt and between her lips tremble for an answer
on her tiptoes pirouette like a ballet dancer

again her mind rolls thru the clouds of blissful rushes
feeling his hands on her supple ******* tongue flickered hushes
she feels his eyes staring into her own eyes of grey
take me now my darling please never go away

as she awakens from weary torment thrown away the chains
the release of her special fragrance releases all the pains
the morning rain drops breathing in the sound
from high above we smile and watch Mary Go Round

Mes Confessions

you never leave my mind alone
I find that to be so beautiful but dangerous
I often stare wantingly at my phone
wishing we could speak just to hear your voice

missing your touch on my soul
although you have touched it so many times
the daily thoughts we shared filled the hole
in my empty heart the sound of chimes

now we are like ships passing in the night
although the feelings remain but left unspoken
I still get jealous when I see your words requite
upon anothers thoughts it leaves me broken

there are many things about who am I
that may leave one with much more to desire
but my love for you makes my heart cry
inside of me still burns this fire  

imperfect as I tell but more down so deep
there are most likely many more layers
that just haunt me at night in my sleep
on my knees my whispered prayers

yes I confess my undying love for you
how my dreams have been penned for your sight
although it seems likely you already knew  
how much I miss your kiss goodnite

Buffalo Grass

she came from out of nowhere

and took root in my open heart

tough as the mid western prairie

once she got in it was just the start


heated words never burned her out

she stayed strong waiting for the rain

the tears of fears quench her thirst

still there even through all the pain


her words of love kept me fed

when I doubted the reasons

visions of her Indian dance fill my head

keeping the beat in my heart


she will always be here even when she goes

like the millions of years gone past

her strength and beauty will forever live on

spreading forever like buffalo grass

Cuckoo for Coco

the chap from Santa Monica
with his weapon slung over his shoulder
working it over upside down
it was the way he learned how to hold her

blue bullets shot out to the crowd
he smoothly garnered their attention
they understood by the piercing sounds
and his bad boy gravel voiced intention

he had his good days and his bad days
but he has never let me down
left-handed back-handed super cool tones
he pulls out the tears but never lets me drown

Elegy in the courtyard of lost souls

oh ye whose souls grow leary
on this day so grey and dreary
searching for your mate of life
fruitless and futile so weary

raise you eyes up above
searching the heavens for love
your dreams and hopes have flown
on the wings of a snow white dove

down on one knee you pray
hoping to make one more day
this elegy for souls who are lost
so yearning to fill your alms tray

Polymath Pretender

the master of absolutely nothing
these quatrains tell the tale
of a pretender who is suffering
whose life is worn and stale

reach up and raise your chalice
tainted words used as a phallus
some intentions of mental malice
lying naked in my palace

is this the fade from glory
a sad and ancient story
of repeat offenders
these polymath pretenders

Swollen and Hard

they told me I was a handsome lad
a smile that could steal a heart
I let that thought turn me into a cad
I allowed my head to become swollen

they said if I truly applied myself
I could be anything I wanted
I let that thought sit on the shelf
I allowed my head to become hard

life's lessons take time to learn
there are no perfect answers
your soul can simply crash and burn
if you let your ego become swollen

friendships will eventually fade away
tired of your selfish ways
you will regret your actions someday
if you let your heart become hard

cherish every moment let your heart sing
learn giving is such a wondrous way
your smile can become an ugly thing
if you become swollen and hard

This is my Dream

you say there are times I make you smile
I hear these words and they in turn make me smile
making you smile has always been my dream

you say there are times I am unfair and make you sad
I hear these words and they in turn make me very sad
making you sad is my own worst bad dream

lying next to you looking at the stars so beautiful
you lying next to me your face so beautiful
a nearly perfect dream

feeling your body next to me your skin so soft
feeling the muscles in my body tighten so hard
my dream of desire

smelling your scent touching your hair so incredible
your hand on my bare chest kissing my lips so sweet
my dream of total consumption

sharing my fears my hopes lying in your arms
feeling every inch of your naked body
my dream of caring and lust

this is the way you make me feel my love goddess
this is the way you say I make you feel so warm
this is my dream

He said he was a Miller
but he carried a kow-kow calculator
see him on the street
he'd say hey I'll catch you later

from children of the future
a 10 gallon Stetson on his head
he could fly like an eagle
or cruise his Mercury blues instead

they say he took the money and ran
rumor was Junior saw it happen
yeah he and ***** Mae
boy did he need a good ***** slappin'

years later he was seen in swingtown
a joker jumpin' for jungle love
lost his golden key to the highway
hoping to find wild mountain honey above

c'mon and dance make some romance
bump bump bump on the steppin' stone
he left again on a big jet airliner
and never did answer his telephone

100 Billion Stars

our galaxy of beauty as I gaze up to the sky
the creator shares this awesome sight with you and I
more than 100 billion stars in just this view alone
100 billion more just like it though not a perfect clone

and who knows how many more that we cannot see
the universe goes on and on it seems so endlessly
how can we ever begin to understand the reason
changing ever so slowly season after season

there seems to be no beginning and we still search for the end
I would like to search this world with you my special friend
my small mind cannot comprehend I have no single clue
I can only wonder and share these thoughts with you

Silent Ending

the universe in all it's glory
plays on creating a magnificent story
new worlds are born and old ones die
that's the way it is no need to wonder why

some like our Earth spring forth new life
while death claims another march to drum and fife
exploding force the final crying scream
the fatal ending of an old man's dream

the flash of light falls on insignificant eyes
the world turns its head saying it's goodbyes
hush it says no need pretending
we leave to a silent ending

Purple Cow

I've never seen a purple cow
though I have been inside a purple haze
things are different between then and now
when I stumbled around for many dayz

standing in corners watching the crowd
yellow barrels of sunshine enlightened view
Mr Hendrix's Watchtower 90 decibels loud
smiling faces thinking that we really knew  

it seemed so simple peace and love
not very real but I so miss those times
burn the bra olive branch and dove
now I just sit and think up rhymes

Dylan's monotone with catchy words
Gracie had her rabbit of white
he was a friend of mine sang out the Byrds
another hit of fresh air tonite

Vietnam changed things so much
yet still again the money rules
you would have thought we had the touch
but once again we are the fools

so maybe it is time once again
to raise up our voices and show them how
we will not just stand around and grin  
maybe it's time to see that purple cow

Gomer LePoet ....

If you break my heart

if you break my heart
I know I will never forget you
because I loved you once that will never change

if you tell me goodbye
I know that I will miss you forever
the memory of you will never feel strange

if you let go of my hand
I will know it was not easy for you
for if it was then that certainly is my fault

if the words make you tremble
the special words you once said to me  
locked away forever inside my heart's vault


Gomer LePoet ....

If you steal my heart

if you steal my heart
I will love you forever
so be very careful the words you choose

if you kiss my lips
I will desire you completely
I'll be in the streets shouting the news

if you hold my hand
I promise to never let it go
this is a promise I will always keep

if you say the words
sincerely that you love me
I will dream of you in my time of sleep

The Queen's big pants

well now they've gone and done it
is nothing sacred anymore
a large pair of silk bloomers
belonging to the Queen
you won't find these in any store

they have been sold for £10,000
Victoria's garment gone for highest bid
King Arthur will be turning
in his grave forevermore
now what's he gonna tell his kid

The Bodacious Blonde

she is a portmanteau a blending of thought
voluptuous yes but yet down-home too
she'll bake you a cake or a sweet tasty pie
with flour on her face a bomb shell sacre bleu

she is courageous audacious and a spirited soul
fiesty like a hornet you'll feel her sting
graceful and kind be careful not to raise her ire
and please pretty please don't ask her to sing

she can haul out the trash and mend a skirt
carry large loads and cut the back nine
she doesn't mind playing in the dirt
but when she dresses up oh my god she is fine

her grey eyes sparkle bright in the light
her long golden hair down her back
it's hard to let go when she kisses you good nite
pressing against you with her incredible rack

a friend forever and an incredible lover
who wouldn't be proud to have her on your arm
although not a spy but great under cover
yes she is bodacious and her kisses are warm

JSTFU

Words and thoughts come tumbling out
I try giving them considerable thought
but sometimes I let my emotions takeover
if I feel I've been slighted and I'm feeling distraught

yes I am emotional with my heart on my sleeve
I feel I try to give at least what I get
trying kindness in every way I can conceive
when things just don't work out I worry and fret

sometimes things just cannot be helped
and it's unfair for me to hold out my cup
wishing or ranting won't change anything  
I need to learn sometimes it's best to j.s.t.f.u

so I'm gonna work on keeping my cool
accept the beauty of things that I get
not get upset and act like a fool
do I think I can do this – gosh I hope so

Where I am going?

From the pens of wisdom and prolific wit,
Voltaire, Krishnamurti, Schopenhauer, now I sit,
trying to compose words, that can help me explain,
how you bring me such joy, how you bring me such pain,

I feel like I'm tumbling, not understanding my fate,
I reach out to touch you, but you tell me to wait,
where I am going, is a mystery to me,
it's always been that way, yearning to see,

my weary heart and mind are in need of peace,
I'm like a small white dwarf, waiting to release,
all this suppressed energy, exploding in space,
yet I sit here now, with tears on my face,

I feel like I can grasp, understanding Adams' plea,
when he asks the question, "Whatayawantfromme",  
so simple, so pure, this inquiry, words flowing,
still with no answer, Where I am going?

professor of nostalgia
demander of what's right
I can do in just a while
while others take all night
smarter and stronger than most
do you think this is a joke
am I being serious
or am I just blowin smoke

I can do a mile
in 3:45 flat
I am over 200 pounds
but I sure as hell ain't fat
I'll roll us up a fatty
and offer you a ****
then we can do a power hit
and keep on blowin smoke

my father was a hard-nosed cop
my mom a ballet dancer
he came home late one night
and caught this guy trying to pants her
he kicked his *** back and forth
and his jaw he severely broke
the dude said it doesn't hurt at all
he most surely was blowin smoke

I used to be a singer
in a rock and roller band
I could play a hot guitar
until I broke my hand
I dropped hot ash in my crotch
while trying to give this lass a poke
the wrist could not support my fall
now you know I'm blowin smoke

Outside looking In

topsy turvey turnabout
must be guilty of some sin
cause once again I'm outside
I'm outside looking in

now you see it now you don't
using slight-of-hand
things change oh so drastically
so hard to understand

peek-a-boo now you're it
must be time to turn and hide
I know there is an explanation
but it tears me up inside

sometimes the sun will shine
but the clouds always return
get so excited when I need my shades
but when will I ever learn

for every moment of sublime bliss
there are a hundred worse
a thousand times a goodbye kiss
it's such an evil curse

no explanation saying why
none is needed I'll take it on the chin
growing colder inside no more tears to cry
I'm outside looking in

Ostentation or Pomposity

ostentation or pomposity
it doesn't really matter
the self importance in your words
makes your head much fatter

humility and realness
a personality of reaching higher
putting others out in front
are traits that most admire

aloofness or audacity
pretentiousness and vanity
conditions of the ego
shows a loss of true sanity

define it with big words
or make them really small
but your airs or arrogance
will finally lead to your fall

up the down staircase

running in circles chasing my tail
rerunning another episode of groundhog day
trying to skim on the water without a sail
constantly getting in my own way

reaching for the stars without any arms
singing the blues to a house of the dead
searching for the clock in a room full of alarms
should be slamming the door closed instead

out of breath climbing the staircase with no end
when the only way that it goes is down
keeping my eyes closed trying to pretend
wearing the mask and the tears of a clown

the odds of completion like Custer's last stand
trying to understand the reason of risk and reward
counting the good things with only one hand
playing solitaire with a deck missing one card

Don't Worry Nell

I sometimes get confused and I'm not real bright
but my heart is of gold and I'll do what is right
chasing down bandits and doers of evil
like Snidely Whiplash but not Evel Knievel
I ride thru the country on my gallant steed
searching for damsels who are in need
I don't know why but it seems somewhat bleak
some of these ladies get captured each week
like my girl who I love her name is Nell
sweethearts since grade school out in the dell
her daddy is my boss he's the chief inspector
and it is my duty my charge to protect her
but in every episode of our little cartoon
she gets captured by that honry baboon
Snidely Whiplash trying to cast his spell
I'll save you again don't worry Nell

Dastardly Deeds

I love doing dastardly deeds
capturing damsels creating distress
tying them to the railroad tracks
while sneaking a peek up there dress
I'm evil and cruel and just so **** mean
I love making them cry and scream
holding them for ransom my ill gotten gains
while having my tea with strawberries and cream
if only I can hide them from the annoying mountie
who is always saving them and spoiling my bounty
yes Dudley Do Right he is my curse of foil
I'd like him feathered and rolled in oil
many things please me like baubles and beads
but nothing quite like dastardly deeds
