Ctopodova! (Стопудово! = For Sure!)
I've been sitting on this mountain top
For several days on end
I seen things I could not conceive
And don't claim to comprehend
Pilgrims, monks n'murderes
And wolves that come in the night (вообще)
N'little Ramazan's lookin' at me
Wondering if I'll sing off key
In the land where a 'B'ers a 'V'er
And a 'Y's an Ooo
Little east European trip
Help me lift my heart out of this pit
And think it over
Ctopodova
I've been sleeping in this cave now
For several nights on end
The dreams and scenes revealed to me
Makes me feel this place transcends
Matarmoro in field of stars
And every girl I ever laid
Little school girl's flirtin' with me, she's fucking nouveau Ruski 33
In the land where vodka's cheap n'radiation's free
Little east European trip
Help me lift my heart out of this pit
And think it over
Ctopodova
I've been walking this forest path
For several miles on end
Seen things I could not conceive
An'don't claim to comprehend
Graves,n'bones n'singing stones n'stars that say it's alright
N'little liza's sippin' her tea wonderin' what will be will be
In the land where an H is N and an S is C
Little east European trip
Help me lift my heart out of this pit
And think it over
Ctopodova
(вообще)
Little east European chick help me get my backbone straight n'clicked
N’everybody's lookin at me 'coz Я из Англии
(спой слова)
And Little Baby’s eying her chance she stole the documents she needs to advance
я не говорю по Русски
можно нам два бокала шампанского.
Я хочу мороженое из Запорожья.

Keep on moving
Just just strollin’ n' rollin’
In the sunshine just you and I
Like walkin’ on air you know

Just dreamin’ bout the time
Gonna make you mine gonna make you mine
Hazy lazy shady day made for lovin
Hazy lazy shady way made with you
Relax and lazy baby just keep on movin’
This feelin’ I feel I know it’s for real
And you take me there
Yes you take me there
So keep on movin’
Just keep on movin’
Relax and lazy baby
Just keep on movin’
We’re just strollin’ n'rollin
In the good times you and I
Your hand in my hand
You know I’m gonna make you fly so high
Honey kissin’ hands carresin’
Voices laughin’ eyes undressin’
Relax and lazy baby keep on movin
Hazy lazy shady day made for lovin
Hazy lazy shady way made with you
Relax and lazy baby just keep on movin’
This feelin’ I feel I know it’s for real
And you take me there

Spancil Hill
Last night as I lay dreaming
Of pleasant days gone by
My mind was bent on ramblin'
To Ireland I did fly
N'I stepped upon vision
And followed with my will
'Til at last I came to anchor
At the cross on Spancil Hill
I paid a flying visit
To my first and only love
She’s as gentle as a puppy
And as pretty as a doll
She threw her arms around me
Saying "Johnny I love you still"
Sure she’s Mac the Ranger's daughter
And the pride of Spancil Hill
I dreamt I held and kissed her
As many a time before
"Oh Johnny you’re always joking
You keep me coming back for more"
Well the cock crowe' in the morning
He crowe' both clear and shrill
And I awoke in California
Many miles from Spancil Hill

Grateful Dead
They say a stitch in time saves nine
But I'm ravaged by the savage claws of time
If youth is wasted on the young
Cynicism's lavished on the old
All you twenty-somethings pushing thirty
Merging with the ordinary
So strange
You leave it chance
N’wait on leaps of faith
That come once in a lifetime
Tyranny of youth
The noose
Binding tighter and tighter
But I’ m more grateful than dead
More grateful than the grateful dead
More grateful than the grateful dead
Was in illicit state of mind
Took more than natural time to find
A life rhyme
I hit the hum-drum
Life style
An’ for little while
Put up a mind block
Play the actor
I don’t give a fuck
Don’t giva a flying fuck
All you thirty-somethings pushing forty
Still dreaming the extraordinary
So strange
You leave it chance
N’wait on leaps of faith
That come once in a lifetime
Tyranny of youth
The noose
Binding tighter and tighter
Strange
We leave it chance
Wait on leaps of faith
Come maybe once every lifetime
But I’ m more grateful than dead
Way more grateful than dead
More grateful than the grateful dead
More grateful than the grateful dead

EMERALD GREEN
STOP! PAUSE! STOP!
Think for a minute OK
Pause for the cause
From the mountains to the shores
Emerald green
Pure in it’s clarity
Dream nature for a conscious reality
One people
A world nation
One nation in a love foundation
From generation
To generation
Rejuvenate
Without exploitation
Balance and unity
Nature’s ingenuity
Pause for the cause
From the mountains to the shores
From the mountains to the shores from the mountains to the shores
From the mountains to the shores one nation in a love foundation
From the mountains to the shores generation to generation
From the mountains to the shores one people a world nation
From the mountains to the shores one nation in a love foundation
From the mountains to the shores Emerald green pure in it’s clarity
From the mountains to the shores dream nature for a conscious reality
From the mountains to the shores one people a world nation
From the mountains to the shores one nation in a love foundation
From the mountains to the shores generation to generation
From the mountains to the shores rejuvenate without exploitation
From the mountains to the shores balance and unity nature’s ingenuity
From the mountains to the shores pause for the cause
From the mountains to the shores

How Long?
Sittin' here all alone
Wondering bout the road I chose
Me n'my thoughts on life
In the stillness & calm
And where should I go now?
And where have I been?
And is there some meaning
In all these things I have seen?
N'how long shall l be strong?
N'how long shall I go on?
Never knowin' the answers, always needing to know
Always needing to know
Bathing in luxury
Back in the shallow west
I feel the pull of deeper down
Blind faith calls me home
And is home where my heart is?
Or on some distant shore?
And these dreams in the night
Should I heed them at all?
N'how long shall l be strong?
N'how long shall I go on?
Never knowin' the answers, always needing to know
Always needing to know
All the foolish words that I've spoken
All the lies that I've told
All my promises broken
All leaves in the wind now......... leaves in the wind now
New seeds I've sown
N'how long shall l be strong?
N'how long shall I go on?
Never knowin' the answers, always needing to know
Always needing to know
