She’s Gotta Boyfriend


Got struck by love
Lightening from above
When I met this girl
On a beach just north of Mexico
                       
My best friend’s sister
I almost kissed her
I knew she kinda liked me
Cause’ her bro told me so

 but She’s gotta boyfriend
And he’s got a lot in common
With Nat King Cole and Steve McQueen
And how can a serf like me
Compete with that nobility?

Her clear blue eyes
Glowed like the ocean skies
Her hair was gold
Like sand on her toes

She sipped from my Coke
She laughed at my jokes
She’s a perfect flower to me
A predisposed California Rose

But she’s gotta boyfriend
And he’s got a lot in common
With Nat King Cole and Steve McQueen
And how can a serf like me
Compete with that nobility??

Gonna be impolite, gonna put up a fight, never gonna quit
Gonna be myself cause what I got is completely legit
Gonna use the big guns and more
Cause all’s fair in love and war                  

But she’s gotta boyfriend
She’s gotta boyfriend
She’s gotta boyfriend
She’s gotta boyfriend
She’s gotta boyfriend
And soon enough
Her boyfriend is gonna be me

Jake the Chocolate Cake Water Snake


There once was a serpent
Who thought earth was no place to raise a family
So he swam to a place way out in space
Where his posterity could live and grow happily

Jake the chocolate cake water snake
Carried his kids to Neptune
Five fell thru Triton’s nitro fog
And were chewed by flying frogs

Jake the chocolate cake water snake
Carried his kids to Neptune
Two fell onto liquid rocks
And were burned by solar shocks

But he could hear everything
From your daddy’s quiet crying to your mama’s loud snoring
As she dreams about ham all morning

Jake the chocolate cake water snake
Carried his kids to Neptune
Four fell into frozen briars
And were choked by methane fires

That articulate reptile didn’t have an outer ear
But he could hear everything
From your daddy’s quiet crying to your mama’s loud snoring
As she dreams about ham all morning

Jake the chocolate cake water snake
Carried his kids to Neptune
One fell into a balmy gel
And began dividing like a cell

Now Jake’s children finally got established on Neptune
Because he never gave up

Bigger Than My Body

This is a call to the color blind
This is an IOU
I’m stranded behind the horizon line
Tied up in something true

Yes, I’m grounded
Got my wings clipped
I’m surrounded by all this pavement
Guess I’ll circle while I’m waiting for my fuse to dry

Some day I’ll fly
Some day I’ll soar, cause I’m so much more
I’m Bigger Than My Body gives me credit for

Why is it not the time
What is there more to learn
Shed this skin I’ve been tripping in
Never to quite return

Yes, I’m grounded
Got my wings clipped
I’m surrounded by all this pavement
Guess I’ll circle while I’m waiting for my fuse to dry

Some day I’ll fly
Some day I’ll soar, cause I’m so much more
I’m Bigger Than My Body gives me credit for
I’m Bigger Than My Body gives me credit for

Maybe I’ll get tangled in the power lines
Maybe it’ll be over in a second’s time
But I’ll gladly go down in a flame
If a flames what it takes to remember my name

Yes, I’m grounded
Got my wings clipped
I’m surrounded by all this pavement
Guess I’ll circle while I’m waiting for my fuse to dry

Some day I’ll fly
Some day I’ll soar, cause I’m so much more
I’m Bigger Than My Body gives me credit for
I’m Bigger Than My Body gives me credit for

Daisy

I know you’re afraid love won't last                                                      
You’ve been hurt so many times in the past                                    
But my love for you goes on and on                                                        
Like ocean waves singing their song

C’mon baby my heart is sincere
Take my hand, there’s nothing to fear

Millions of daisies
Shine under the sun
You’re the brightest of all these
That’s why you’ll always be
The one and only daisy for me

My love for you will always flow                                                  
Like a river ‘neath sunshine, rain or snow                                          
You’ll never thirst for affection again                                                    
Cause’ what I feel for you will never end


C’mon baby my heart is sincere
Just take my hand, there’s no need to fear                                                      

Millions of daisies
Shine under the sun
You’re the brightest of all these
That’s why you’ll always be
The one and only daisy for me

Even after
My life is through
I will be
In love with you

Millions of daisies
Shine under the sun
You’re the brightest of all these
That’s why you’ll always be
The one and only daisy for me

Vila Bela Vista


High above The Viper Room
Dark clouds devour each wispy star
Oh I wish I was holding you
Instead of playing this murky bar
We’ve got to get away
From West Hollywood and LA
There’s a small resort where we can stay
Called Vila Bela Vista

Tonight the strip’s a parking lot
The horn on a Taurus is driving me crazy
It looks like it’s gonna rain
And I just dropped all of the Red Hots you gave me
Let’s find the quickest way
To a Portuguese hideaway
On the East edge of Funchal Bay
At Vila Bela Vista

At Vila Bela Vista
The air is fresh and sweet
The sunshine falls like honey
Over everything under the sky

From the cliff side patio
You can gaze across the blue Atlantic
While the scent of white orchids
Exalts your body and mind

Grab the camera, sunscreen, and some Oreos
I’ll meet you at Gardner where the scarlet palm grows
Gonna’ skip my show, cause’ now’s the time to go
To Vila Bela Vista

I’m gonna’ skip my show, cause’ now’s the time to go
To Vila Bela Vista
