THE DARK SIDE
WARNER BAXTER Dec 2013
~
she starts with lightning
then comes her thunder
search for shelter to hide under

she is the rain, she is the snow
so cold, so damp
winters frigid vicious vamp



I can't get through the dark side
afraid to give
afraid to live
I can't get through the dark side



she is the storm
that blackens my sky
frozen chest no breath for good bye

can't think can't feel
can't find a reason
there is no refuge from her changing season



CHORUS

CHORUS



can't get through


can't get through

can't...

BAZOOKA JOE IS GUM

David slings a rock
Cop holsters a glock,  Lizzie Borden packs an axe
Mac he packs the knife, Billy battles with a club, Tommy’s gun is a sub
Kelly’s got 1 too, Bazooka Joe Is Gum, Peter Gun not, Colt 45 is not malt
Nor a horse, hand grenades, canons w/big *****, Doc Holiday had TB
Rock Hudson ***, James Dean crash his car,Hank Williams in his bar
Natalie Wood don’t float, Cain killed brother, Juliette poison her lover,
Whitey Bulger, he  killed and got paid,  deadman walking  gets to eat
Rodney King he got beat, got beat Mama Cass Elliott choked on ham
58,000 gone in Nam, 4 dead in Ohio, Kamikazes fall 1941, again 2001
Iraqi leader w/ a rope, John Belushi too much dope, C. Manson is alive
Michael Jackson isn’t,  Saturday night special is very ordinary
Fast and furious is the crime, **** Clark just his time
Pirate victims walk the plank, THINK,
Next I’ll come rolling up in a tank
Hear the whistle of my missile
***** Harry had the biggest
The  Derringer  is  small
Smokey Bear forest fire
Greek funeral is a pyre
Too many  +’s or  -’s
Is electrical surges
Woman and child
sing the dirges
Walking dead
Are  zombies
Fat man and
Little Boy
Are atom
Bombies

in a blaze

*pitch an putt I never worried about
'cause all my drives were long and stout
now off the tee it doesn't fly so far
and all I can do is hope for par
on my card 3's are 4's and 4's became 5
oh how I long for a 300 yard drive
it's only a game some say unkind
but it grabs at your heart and messes your mind
it's only a game still others proclaim
front nine was fun the back nine shame
so before I tee I ask my Lord
just once put my name atop the leader board
so now it's early to bed so I can dream
of birdies and eagles and a jacket that's green

*down town where girls dance on poles

WARNER BAXTER May 2015
we take sides to fight
politics and religion
pray or become prey

hate poisons the mind
arrogance is ignorance
divided we fall

American heads
roll in the name of Allah
Isis bleeds and burns

listening for drones
terrorists with umbrellas
desert storm rains fire

anger in the clouds
howling winds with lightning bolts
mushroom cloud of war

Al-Quida is dead
Bin Laden swims with fishes
Isis you’re next ka-Boom

the red white and blue
stars and stripes wave night and day
Isis to ashes

the torch of freedom
held high for all men to see
Lady Liberty

religion of hate
call to prayer is call of war
jihad must be stopped

with love in your heart
without a gun in your hand
Heaven smiles on Earth

You won’t have to save

this is a rock town
we don’t play Motown

now is the time to make a new start

and to share your days for a very long while

There’s a ring of fire baby
And it’s burning ‘round my heart
Don’t you know it drives me crazy
I don’t know just where I’ll start


I had a million lovers
I could never find my style
Pretty soon they will discover
What it takes to make me smile

(chorus up tempo)
I was blinded, blinded by love babe
I was blinded by love
I was blinded, blinded by love babe
Blinded, blinded by love babe


There’s a ring of fire baby
And it’s burning ‘round my heart
Don’t you know things get hazy
Am I just to blind to start


(up tempo change)
Well I tried much too much
To keep your heart right in my clutch
I aint laughin’ ‘cause it aint funny
I cry ‘cause I miss ya honey
Life goes around like a merry-go-round
I could send you back to lost and found

To go where young rabbits frolic and dance
Would be a sweet treat if I had the chance

To swim in the water where famous cottontails get wet
Where champagne bubbles are spilled by the elite jet set

Maybe I might win a million dollar lotto
That could be my ticket to enter the grotto

Past muscle bound bouncers, inside velvet ropes and stanchions
To ogle, google and spill my own bubbles at The ******* Mansion

To escape normality and alter reality before I grow old
Playing with Playmates and Bunnies and this months Centerfold

GOD'S AMUSEMENT PARK
WARNER BAXTER Dec 2013
timeless, at once, a memory of long ago
   born from heaven, to earth, a new life to grow
   first of clay, then from ocean spray
   and wrapped in God's own DNA

   miracle of life, perfect pure so innocent and new
   divine dominion, planet Earth in shades of
   red, green but mostly sky blue

   yet far beyond colors and shades in
   God's Amusement Park
   lies a network of tones and sounds
   and these lyrics of life change after dark

   Heaven and Earth and Life, so symphony pure
   conducted by God's hand so divinely sure

   yet many believe an exploding star
   is why we are         HOW BAZZAR

   God made us who we are
   promised his Son he would send
   so when you watch me rise up to heaven
   your exploding star, is how it will end

fireflies flicker and flutter beneath the dancing trees
exotic breezes whisk and whisper through limbs and leaves
The Golden Goddess of Garden Glen breaths evergreen
Her elfish essence is magic and Her spirit gleens
for it's merely a moment at the wonder She whiles
She wiggles and giggles and then She snickers and smiles




She's not really a Goddess nor is She a Princess
She's more of a magical mystical Enchantress
She is the Garden's gleaming glistening Governess
a caldron song singer a spell casting Sorceress
She starts with Her essence then stirs Her spirit divine
She drips Dragon tears, then simmers slow with sweet sunshine



simple solution of spellbound myth and mystery
secretly sublime not found, hidden in history
not mountain high, valley low nor places in between
is the glowing gleen of The Garden Glen's evergreen
it is just East of the sun and Southwest of the moon
at a place where clouds and castles float and stars are strewn

“In the Living Years”
no one is perfect we are who we are
there’s no one reason or no perfect rhyme
divided by difference in a generation of time
you see things your way and I see things another
I see the dreams and wishes of a Father and Mother,
and I’ll do my best to  erase all  your doubts and fears
I am glad I got to tell you  ~  “In The Living Years”
Everyday is Father’s Day & Everyday is Mother’s Day
I am glad I got to tell you  ~ “In The Living Years”
the days fade away and the years slowly disappear
I will carry your name proudly as Junior’s destiny
every minute of every day you live on through me
your wisdom & love passed from Father to Son
and when your days on this earth are done
no one lives forever we are who we are

BLACK SHEEP will shine
WARNER BAXTER May 2014
(Intro)
I'll remember you, You'll remember me

life is like grains of sand, falling down from your hand
rolling on toe to tide, like an endless wave on an endless ride
the last thing you want is sympathy, gotta live your life, just have 'em let you be
you tried so hard, you tried so much, you can't please another if you're out of touch


(chorus)
black sheep will shine black sheep you're fine
black sheep will shine black sheep you're mine



remember what your father said, it really stuck in your head
you'll never be nobody's fool, gonna live your life by your rule
you got the money, you got the fame but you're walking that tight rope, barely sane
Time takes a back seat to no man, gotta stick with your life, shift in your plan

black sheep will shine black sheep you're fine
black sheep will shine black sheep you're mine

(repeat chorus)

life is like grains of sand falling down from your hand
Slowing down before you slide, now pick up your speed, shift into glide
you got the money you got the fame you got your name, so you better take aim
you tried too hard, you tried too much you can't please another if you're out to lunch

black sheep will shine black sheep you're fine
black sheep will shine black sheep you're mine

(repeat chorus x2)

I DARE TO DREAM
WARNER BAXTER May 2015
It is simply being at a still point, where silence speaks volumes.
Where guilt turns to tranquility and I can trust to risk
or risk to trust, either way, it doesn’t matter.
It is a matter of perspective, I can dare to dream,
of a Wondrous Journey and when I dream,
without fail,  I am greeted by Chaya,  
mystical Goddess of the shadow.
She reviles wisdom of the shadow.
in the shadows are rainbow colors.
She brings forth, essence of Black.
For background and contrast.
Then magically splashes
the essence of Green,
and everything

GLOWWS ! ! !


My little Chimera steps out from behind a giant fern
and holds my hand, in anticipation of the journey.
Chaya holds a finger to her lips and says,
“The Whisper sunset is near” I am Red.
Again she raises a finger to her lips,
“Listen for the Whisper - Twilight
The Dream Catcher,
it is what makes
the magic fun
and fancy.

Angel’s Breath and Dragon Tears,”
Chaya explains while
Scintilla the Necromancer
dances along the creek ,
and she SPARKLES.
A giant bumblebee
hovers to watch
SO SURREAL

Then everything just bursts and fades into the mist.
What happened to the magic? Where is Chaya?
"Chaya went into the eye of the storm"
The voice from within says
“Where is Scintilla?” We ask
  “Scintilla dances in heaven now”
The voice within echoes
The Wondrous Journey
is over,‘til twilight
tomorrow when
I DARE TO
DREAM

The Soft Parade
WARNER BAXTER Jul 2015
A Tribute to
JIM MORRISON

In silence a black motorcade
The sad and soft parade
Heavy hearts the last charade
The last song is finally played
One last curtain call is made
Rest in peace shadow and shade

The music is over forever delayed
Turn out the light
Turn out the light
Finish and fade

R.I.P.
Lizard King

What's The Sound?
WARNER BAXTER Aug 2015
peacock is proud
rock and roll is loud
surround is the sound
played in the round
levels 100Db exceed
without plugs do ears bleed?

WHAT?
'
Owls say who
cows go moo
ghosts say boo
nothing new
horse goes neigh
but what does the turtle say?

HUH?

Some birds sing
most of them squawk
quail don't fly they walk
parrots can talk
can you hear a snail trail?
what's the sound of a whale tail?

WHAT?

bird wings go flip flap
fish fins go splish splash
horse hooves go clip clop
snake belly goes slither
Santa Clause says ** ** **
but what's the sound of the *******?

boys and girls willing and able
moral judgment isn't stable
no one reads the label


Quickly Moving Slowly

Red bull gives you wings
thoughts become things
naked skin clings


Quickly Moving Slowly

rollin' in the hay
going all the way
****** game in play


Quickly Moving Slowly

foreplay is the game
lust has no refrain
love is always pain


Quickly moving Slowly

***** dancing is romancing
pleasure is to please
stripping is the tease


Quickly moving Slowly

dreamy eyes, creamy thighs
rhythm is the writhe


Quickly Moving Slowly

desire ignites the fire
glamorous is amorous
just a glance take a chance


Quickly Moving Slowly

midnight rendezvous
again at twelve de ja Vu


Quickly Moving Slowly

nooner if not sooner
forking came from spooner


Quickly Moving Slowly

back door romancing
bedroom dancing


Quickly Moving Slowly

nimble fingers pick her lock
TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK

I'm Out of Love Again
WARNER BAXTER Mar 2014
Copyright Louis Brown and Warner Baxter

I only like the young ones the beautiful and tall
the brunettes or the redheads, or the bleach blonde Barbie doll
head over heels in love again and I spin into a daze
but love can't last forever, 'cause we got too different ways

I get bored way too easy no woman loves me long
it's incompatibility and sad to be alone
it's just the natural way of things, these matters of the heart
and with all my insecurities it always falls apart


and tonight once more, I'm out of love again
back out in the cold cold night with that familiar icy wind
summer days are memories and winter's just stormed in
and tonight once more, I'm out of love again


I only like the young ones, the beautiful and tall
if they've got it all together, it's for sure I'm gonna fall
where there's spark there's fire, it burns up in a blaze
but love can't last forever, 'cause we got too different ways


and tonight once more, I'm out of love again
back out in the cold cold night with that familiar icy wind
summer days are memories and winter's just stormed in
and tonight once more, I'm out of love again


I get bored way too easy, no woman loves me long
it's incompatibility and sad to be alone
so as I travel down this road I sing my sad love song
I'll keep rollin' town to town, 'till this road finds me a home

Of Wine and Rhyme
WARNER BAXTER May 2015
A poets words have rhythm and flow,

the ink they spill is like a fine Merlot.

The best with body full and rich bouquet,

both have flair and finish like smoky Cabernet.

So before you write your next verse or rhyme,

red or white, don't forget to pour the wine.

*the winds of love are blowing strong
with amorous emotion

written with stars, the story unfolds with
the world's spinning motion

it echoes through the canyons and tides
the waves of oceans

from sailor signs to poet rhymes
a tale of love's devotion
please read both versions
thank you
