My whole life
No time like the present
Just maybe one more cup of coffee
Then I’ll tell her how I’m feeling
I need just one more cigarette
I need a little time to reflect
Just relax n’don’t worry take your time don’t hurry
Let the moment unfold let your heart unfold
The simple truth is I never felt this way before
The moment I saw you I knew I wanted more
My life makes no sense unless you’re here with me
The missing piece in life’s mystery
Yes I know in my heart you're the one I’ve been waitin’ for
My whole life now make sense ‘cause of this one thing I am sure
Yes I know in my heart you're the one I’ve been waitin’ for
My whole life my whole life
You’re the one I’ve been waiting for
N’yes it’s now or never
No no turning back this is the point of no return
All my bridges burned
Just relax n’don’t hurry it’s your time now, don’t worry
Let your story unfold let your truth be told
Yes I know in my heart you're the one I’ve been waitin’ for
My whole life now make sense ‘cause of this one thing I am sure
Yes I know in my heart you're the one I’ve been waitin’ for
My whole life, my whole life
I’ve heard the words that your saying
For these words I’ve been praying
I saved my heart for you
Now make my dreams come true
I’ll make your dreams come true

Pussy Foot
Holly came down from a weekend without sleep
Out partied the hard core hedonistic elite
Made new friends along the way entertained superficially
She say
I wanna take it easy nice'n'slow
Nothing too heavy no one else needs know
I just wanna pussy foot nothing more
I just wanna pussy foot paw by paw
From weekend to weekend
Just a little bit more than just friends
Miss GoLightly faced another non-working week
Five days of semi-lucid in between
No quick fix she need big kicks money-power food clothes'n'sex
She say
I wanna take it easy (nice'n'slow)
Nothing too heavy (no one else needs know)
I just wanna pussy foot (nothing more)
Just wanna pussy foot paw by paw
From weekend to weekend
Just a little bit more than just friends (do do-do etc)
Just a little bit more than just friends
And all the party people say
Drop, dab'n'sniff toke a liccle leaf
Are those days really over?
Did we just reap what was sown?
Guess she has her reasons
But they ain't mine to understand
For me love is for all seasons
Not just now and then on demand
Holly just seemed to disappear without trace
All her promises just emptiness
She say that was then n’this is now not like I made some marriage vow

Begging for change

Beggin’ for change
Down on her luck
She’s down at your feet
You’re upbeat
Y’overdrawn cashpoint transaction complete
She tries her luck
But you tell her to fuck-right-off
N’getta life an’ getta job
I just wanna know if you thought about it
Was she beggin’ for change
Or beggin’ for change
I just wanna know if you thought about it
Was she beggin’ for change
Or beggin’ for change
Nine year old boy
Diseased an’ poor
Knock-knockin’ on death’s door
Beggin’ for the pricey cure
Free aid delayed
Our government looks away
Usin’ tax to pay for war
I just wanna know if you thought about it
Was he beggin’ for change
Or beggin’ for change
I just wanna know if you thought about it
Was he beggin’ for change
Or beggin’ for change
You schmooz thru the city
Get down to your nitty-gritty
Want everything to be pretty
Shiny shiny
You crave lots of money
To be livin’ in honey
And milk every situation
To suit your self creation
A free style manipulation
Based on copulation
N'mass appropriation
Of inside information
You want sex in the city
So need bigger titties
Large cocks and lots of strap ons
Botoxed n’waxed Brazillian
You gain a price reduction
On ya extra lyposuction
An’ the money that y’save
Goes up in a purple haze
Poppin’ pills n’ lines n’potions
And someone else’s notions
Of a lifestyle you aspire to
And one you can acquire too
But you won’t buy the big issue
To you it’s just a tissue
Of lies
You despise
Anyone who tries
To imply
That your bubble
Is in trouble
So you pace it double
And walk on by
If you see them beggin’ at your feet
I just want to know if you thought about it
Was she beggin’ for change
Or begging for change
Was he beggin’ for change
Or begging for change
I'm not beggin' for change
I'm beggin' for change

Freedom

Freedom
So many choices
So many voices
Just an illusion?
Chaos and confusion?
Won't you listen to what the man say
Listen to what the man say
Well he said ‘let’s go’
And they followed him
But I couldn’t go so easily
A nagging voice inside my head
Rasta-rhyme inside my head
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Won't you listen to what the man say
Listen to what the man say
Imagining there was no heaven
I considered the word freedom
What about this word freedom?
Maybe something worth believing?
Something to believe in?
Something to believe in?
Maybe something to believe in?
so I tried to get inside
Hiding there was democracy
Fucking the arse off religion
Up to their balls in hypocrisy
Sucking the dicks of righteous truth
All on the alters of honesty
Law and order beside them
Gorging on fear and judgement
Good and evil enshrined
A fat old man with stiff drink
and soft cock decides our fate
Our sons and daughters go blindly
Partners and lovers go blindly
Friends and family go blindly
Free to do just as they choose
Constrained in a gilded cage of morality
Bordered in
Safe within
Boundaries
Media-fed
smiling and laughing and looking so fine
Hey buddy can you spare a paradigm?
Don’t even think they know they where in this song
Don’t suppose they know where the song come from
Don’t even think they know where they belong
Don’t think they care if they belong
Won't you listen to what the man say
Listen to what the man say
‘Well let’s go to war’
And they followed him
But it didn’t go so easily
Answers were blowing in the wind
Shifty paradigm breeze
Rasta-rhyme inside my head
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Coz all I ever have
Redemption songs
These songs of freedom
Won't you listen to what the man say
Listen to what the man say

Here and Now
Former thought words and actions became our present state
N'if you truly believe this maybe it's already too late
Right now future seeds are sown yeah
Right now the moment has gone
Fire that burns twice as bright
Lasts half as long
Here and now
Uncontrolled in the dead of night
Never burns too long
Here and now
Damned if I do and damned if don't put my faith in you
Hanging in the balance between old and new
In between the quantum realm and what I thought was true
Do we all just pay the price or can belief renew?
Right now nothing is real this isn't real
Fire that burns twice as bright
Lasts half as long
Here and now
Uncontrolled in the dead of night
Never burns too long
Here and now
And if we jump the sticks
Will you show me how
To meet you in space
Between here and now?
Here and now
