CHURCH OF FUN
We’re all here in the church of fun
no one judges anyone
we’re all here in the church of fun
God loves you, loves me too
nothing bout that you can do
here, in the church of fun
We’re all here in the church of fun
no one judges anyone
we’re all there in the church of fun
we just like those songs we sung
here here in the church of fun
Fun’s an ocean
not a creek
rivers meet it dark and bleak
church of fun is not so shallow
put on airs
very hollow
church of fun is deep and wide
judgement’s on the shallow side
here here in the church of fun
Here where understanding reins
don’t care if you’re insane
don’t care, if you’re smart
or if you’ve got a little brains
the color of your skin
or who should be with you
walk, bike, drive a car
or just exactly what you do
we’re all here in the church of fun.
Darn Good Things
Life is making the best of, some pretty darn good things
like dogs, flowers, nectarines.
Life is making the best of,
things, that make me smile
I look at them and linger for a while…..
When I remember, these darn good things
I overcome the sorrow,
trial and trouble brings
that’s why I remember,
these darn good things.
Dream Again
Old box of papers
Dreams of mine
Got no time
Stories of a sage
Didn’t have a wage, didn’t need a wage
I had a job
Starving my soul
Getting nowhere
Loosing control
Now Just like a long lost friend
I have a dream again
Old box of papers
Dreams of mine
How they shine
Stories of a sage
Gotta turn that page
Better turn that page.
I had a job
starving my soul
now just like a long lost friend
I have a dream again…..
BE WRONG DO RIGHT
If you wanna be right
say everything is wrong
you hear it on the news everyday
your facts are strong
but if you wanna do-oo- right
that’s not the way to get along.
If you wanna do right
it doesn’t matter how it is
it doesn’t matter what happened yesterday
all that matters is this
if you wanna do-oo right
you’ve gotta be an optimist.
Focus on the beauty
Done with hate.
find the love
any kind of state.
help somebody
participate.
What I’m saying,
is it helping your day
What I’m playing
is it helping some way.
I’m so certain
I’m so sure
What I know is
Love is the word.
GORGEOUS GOODS
The way that its been goin’
far as i can see
damaged goods
I seem to be.
Now this love
and happiness
is messing with my plan
since I’ve been seeing
the therapist
I don’t know who I am
Maybe someone else
is who I was before
and that story isn’t me
anymore
And being someone else
is my greatest fear
What if
all the happiness
disappears?
I won’t disappear
I will always be here
you have nothing to fear
Cause I,
have always been here
Gorgeous Goods
Gorgeous Goods
Gorgeous Goods
Gorgeous Goods.
Damage isn’t terminal
it’s something I can fix
but my crazy mind
keeps playing tricks
An accident of parentage
Won’t be my decline
Gorgeous Goods
My own design.
I won’t disappear
I will always be here
you have nothing to fear
for I have always been hear
Gorgeous Goods
Gorgeous Goods
Gorgeous Goods
Gorgeous Goods
ERR ON THE SIDE OF IT MATTERS
Err on the side of it matters, just because it does
do err that it doesn’t, is turning away from love
Away from children and laughter, reasons we’re alive
to err that it doesn’t, robs light from Christmas eyes
Err on the side of it matters, just because it does
To err that it doesn’t , is turnin’ away from love
Away from all I’ve been givin, all I plan to try
to err that it doesn’t, is laying down to die.
I’ll err on the side of it matters.
STARRY
Everything must be as if I see, for the first time
Everything must be as if I see, for the first time
Everything must be as if I see, for the first——time
without you.
Upon the ceiling stars appear
Like when I first came here
A Vincent starry sky
centuries later would never die
So much pain would come to be
I guess it was worth it
cause Vincent was free
Are you alive in me
like when I learned to see?
If I don’t let fear, cloud away all the clear.
Where are you, unknown, unsung
So many visions, left undone
Perhaps we’ll see them if we don’t let fear,
Cloud away, all the clear
I wish you’d hear me all the time,
not just when I force out words that rhyme.
I know you’ll hear me when you roam
if you remember to come back home
