47 Seconds G. Hegeman Riding underground going north in London town Suddenly she leans on my shoulder She says “the tube stops here, join me at work, my dear” I’m confused – I just want to hold her Well, the hippie boy in college, he had a hairy back He was a good guy, but I couldn’t go on that track Zoe blew my mind, she waved a magic wand She brought me to the harbor of the Women’s Pond (chorus) Forty-seven seconds: Hampstead Heath Forty-seven seconds: Disbelief Forty-seven seconds: That’s when I knew Sexy lifeguard — I’m in love with you! Sitting on the dock, looking back at the stand Silky soft skin, oh what a tan That whistle on her chest and her bosom underneath My drum was marching to a different-beat (chorus) Jubilee, I’m so free Enchanting me Come pick my apple tree   Hop the Piccadilly line, off at Russell Square We’d meet Nigerian drummers there She took us kayaking at the University I flipped for her, I was a devotee (chorus) Riding underground going north in London town, Suddenly she leans on my shoulder….

Crush (Guilty Pleasure) 03:47
lyrics

Crush T. Bryant You are my guilty pleasure — I think about you all of the time. You are my guilty pleasure — I know I shouldn’t but I want to make some time Oh yeah, I want to make some time, oh yeah, I want to make some time. I get this ache deep inside every time I look I look into your eyes. I love this feeling of being on fire with this wondrous and hot desire! (chorus) I’m wired for sound, electrified and bound by this sensation of sensual pursuit. The only hope of getting it to stop, is if you give me everything you got! (chorus) I’m talking bout a hormonal affliction, you’re like a fantasy physical addiction. They start to rage at the slightest thought of your lips, your kiss — it’s so hot! Oh help me, please please help me, you know I’m trying, trying to move ahead. But every time I try to do something, you know you just you just pop right back into my head. (chorus)

Don’t You Give Up T. Bryant You better watch out, you better beware Of that voice in your head telling you you don’t care. Cause you know you do, it’s all inside of you. You better watch out, you better beware Of that voice in your head saying you don’t care. Cause you know you do and it’s eating you up. Oh don’t you worry, oh little girl, don’t you give up. I know that you struggle with your monkey mind, Can’t grasp the cruelty and injustice, why people are so unkind. Cause you know you do, it’s all inside of you. I know that you struggle with that monkey mind, Can’t grasp the cruelty and injustice; why people are so unkind. Cause you know you do, and it’s eating you up. Oh, don’t you struggle, oh little girl ,don’t you give up. You know it takes time to get it right. Just relax and enjoy — don’t get so uptight. Cause you know you do, it’s all inside of you. You know it takes time to get it right. Just relax and enjoy — don’t let it keep you up at night. Cause you know you do and it’s eating you up. Oh, don’t you falter, oh little girl, don’t you give up! You better watch out, you better beware Of that voice in your head telling you you don’t care. Cause you know you do, it’s all inside of you. You better watch out, you better beware Of that voice in your head saying you don’t care. Cause you know you do and it’s eating you up. Oh don’t you worry, oh little girl, don’t you give up.

Hungry Rossi lyrics/Bryant melody, 2018 Don’t forget what you are hungry for Honor your needs, help your heart soar The higher the risk, the higher the gain Choose an uncertain path despite all the pain Push the edge of your need beyond the next meal Push your mind and your body to feel what is real With confusion splitting your heart and mind Don’t be afraid to leave it all behind Don’t forget what you are hungry for Don’t forget the reason you walked out that door Don’t forget what you are hungry for Be brave, be strong, don’t take anymore! When his violence erases your pity When you realize the whole damn thing is so fucking shitty You know it’s the truth, you’ve made up your mind Don’t take no more shit, you don’t have to be so kind Don’t forget what you are hungry for (3x) Don’t be afraid to walk out that door Don’t forget what you are hungry for Honor your needs, help your heart soar The higher the risk, the higher the gain Choose an uncertain path despite all the pain Push the edge of your need beyond the next meal Push your mind and your body to feel what is real With confusion splitting your heart and mind Don’t be afraid to leave it all behind Don’t forget what you are hungry for (3x) Don’t be afraid to walk, don’t be afraid to walk, don’t be afraid to walk out, don’t be afraid to walk out that door!

Forehead Words: Henrietta Wadsworth Longfellow Music: G. Hegeman   Never thought a partnership would end in a dictatorship, yeah Who’d a thought her confidence would turn into such narcissism, yeah If I could have seen ahead, I would have split, avoided dread, yeah With her lips so red and glossy, she would act so fucking bossy, yeah (chorus) I dated a girl with a curl in the middle of her forehead. When she was good she was very, very good But when she was bad… She was Horrid…She was Horrid Curl on her Forehead…She was Horrid She took, and took, and took, and took, and took, and took, and took, Entitled princess, yeah She was blond and pretty…blond and pretty She made me giddy…yeah Her parents told her she’d never have to strive They said her looks would give her a free ride She did not reject that information She took it has her destination, yeah (chorus) She faked to love community, But she had no sense of empathy, yeah She asked too much of everyone No give and take, I was so dumb, yeah (chorus)

Merge G. Hegeman Now’s the time to tell all the carriers We can finally break down the barriers Please stop all the interruptions and merge Strolling through the forest of white pine Love to be with my dog — so sublime Moving past dividing lines - Merge (chorus)                  Merge into one, much to be done!  Evolve and change and soak in the healing sun Merge into one, much to be done The dominant culture’s not gonna make you run Corporations push us to separate Dictates only lead us to isolate The one percent persuade the people — such fraud! Deception is the M.O. of this age Dominance has truly become the rage Please just see it’s all an illusion, just fear Oh, soft pine floor  It’s what we’ve come here for We’re on this earthly core    (chorus) Now’s the time to tell all the carriers We can finally break down the barriers Please stop all the interruptions and merge!

Molly 03:16
lyrics

Molly T. Bryant I went to see an unfamiliar girl named Molly, She seemed real fine ‘till my body started crawling. She dragged me to her bed even though I said No! My life key is missing now I’m in the land below. (chorus) Now I’ve got creature in my tea and demons in my head and my parents they are crying cause I’m tied up to the bed. I want to tell my Mother it’s ok but that man with my life key keeps running away. (chorus) I had a brown baby but they flushed it away. They are trying to tell me something but I can’t tell what they’re saying. The shadow guard keeps asking me if I feel safe, HELL NO I just want out of this place! (chorus) Lithium, Geodon, Haldol and Zyprexa. Topomax, Depakote and maybe some Effexor. They’re trying to do everything to make me fly straight, now they’re telling me I’m hopeless and it’s too late. (chorus) It’s been a month now, and I’m kinda doing better. I called my girlfriend and I'm writing her a letter. I see a little light — if I get a running start — BAM! There’s a window and a pain in my heart.

Piece of Peace 03:53

Piece of Peace M. Fitzpatrick Wake up in the morning, kids are screaming in the yard. Finish up my breakfast and I head out to my car. Confederate flag hanging on my neighbors door— The whole commute to work, I got the peddle to the floor. (chorus) The race continues—the war goes on— I need a piece of peace, no peace ain’t gone We terrorize ourselves thinking different is just bad. Time to stop propaganda and stand up burning mad! Not at our world family trying to live their lives, But at the ruling powers, with their money and their lies (chorus) Our mother earth is crying, we have scorched her skin and hair. We need to understand that we can’t live just anywhere Without respect for each other and the world we’re living on… We can fix it all together before the future is gone. (chorus) The race can slow now, the war can cease! We know what we need now, a piece of peace.

Refugee 06:23
lyrics

Refugee T. O’Dell If you’re out on the ocean and you come to these shores A shining refuge in the sun, but you better stay on board. Hunger, disease and cruelty is all these people have come to know. Even the people who live here are dying to go. By the thousand they take to the ocean out of desperateness. The poor, the tired, the hungry— a society depressed. They love their towns and country, but they really got no choice. So many people needing to have a voice. (chorus) The look on their faces as they finally hit dry land. A rescue worker pries a mother’s lifeless child from her hands. The triage nurses can’t keep up no matter how they try. Dehydration and starvation, why did so many have to die. (chorus) When others are suffering, we need to reach out and lend a hand. We won’t survive without love and compassion, you know that we got to take a stand. It’s time to take action — equal access to all is in sight — Food, water, shelter and love is a basic human right. (Chorus, repeat last line 2x)

Shiny Things 04:21

Shiny Things T. Bryant Life feels awfully special these days as I watch it slowly slipping away. Tell me, does it really get faster everyday? It seems to be rollin’ by and I can’t say Why I’m here, where I’m going… Seems God’s plan wasn’t for the knowing. Faith I got it, but it seems a lot to ask. The older I get, you know, it seems the less I’m up to the task. (chorus) But I’m in love with shiny things, and you’re as shiny as a diamond ring. You make my heart want to fly and sing, yeah, you’re as shiny, you’re as shiny. I’m in love with shiny things and you’re as shiny as a diamond ring You make my heart want to fly and sing, yeah, you’re as shiny, you’re as shiny. Fifty-plus years has really taken it’s toll, but you know, I still got this good old rock ’n’ roll The older I get, you know the less I care what other people think. I’m no worse for the wear. Bustin’ out of my shell like a newborn chick With you as my muse, I can do any trick. Twenty plus years with you right here by my side.. You know there’s not another who’s ever caught my eye. (chorus) But I’m in love with shiny things, and you’re as shiny as a diamond ring. You make my heart want to fly and sing, yeah, you’re as shiny, you’re as shiny. I’m in love with shiny things and you’re as shiny as a diamond ring You make my heart want to fly and sing, yeah, you’re as shiny, you’re as shiny. Life feels awfully special these days, as I watch it slowly slipping’ away…

Unguard G. Hegeman Block, guard, fled — think I’ll lose my head Spiraling down, slip in the trap door Fear, grief, dread — things I need to shed I’m too seasoned, can’t take it no more (chorus) Circling around in the sky. Try ascending, it’s never ending Move beyond your toughness and scars. Be courageous, be outrageous Have faith in who you really are Let your love shine, let your love shine (2x) Burdens, chores — there’s so many wars. So trapped, so stuck in the mud. When will you get a new changed view? Will you soar?  Will you feel your lifeblood? Unguard yourself, just break down the bars Be revealing, not concealing. (2x) Have faith in who you really are   Let your love shine, let your love shine (2x)  Thoughts change. You have the power to - Release the vortex spinning you down. Don’t re-wind — it’s a quicksand bind Unhook yourself and leave it behind

We're All Dying 03:55
lyrics

We’re All Dying T. Bryant I finally figured out what my life is all about, Now my body and my mind — they are starting to check out. I jump, reach, and try to clutch at my life’s thread, But it dangles out of reach just over my head. I guess that’s the way it’s supposed to be, But it doesn’t really feel very fair to me. (chorus) I’m dying, you’re dying: we’re all dying! On the way, we’re trying to live every day of our lives. I’m waiting, your waiting: we’re all waiting For the opening end and our last rites. I guess that’s the way it’s supposed to be, But it doesn’t really feel very fair to me. I watch my parents both in the winter of their lives. My mother, she keeps moving: never looks death in the eyes. My father, he sat waiting: he got stoned to pass the time. The soul train came took him on his final ride… I guess this is the way it’s supposed to be, But it just doesn’t really feel very fair to me. My brother he died early: he raced for the finish line Riding on the white horse and drinking too much wine. He knew he had to stop, but he couldn’t jump that hurdle: Now he’s just a bunch of ashes spread out all around the world. I guess that’s the way it’s supposed to be, But it really doesn’t feel very fair to me. My memory slips, my disc slips, My balance it is shaky, and I know that I’m a geriatric in the making. I’ve kicked and screamed, and now I’m trying to surrender To keep myself from going on a self destructive bender.

Women Rule the World 04:30

Women Rule the World M. Fitzgerald All my pants will have pockets — all my shoes won’t have heels. Let men wear that silly shit, then they’ll know how it feels. All my bras will be comfy ‘cause my tits are mine for real. I’m gonna go without my shirt, with all of me revealed. (chorus) We will love each other and we will love ourselves. We’ll forgive each other when women rule the world. All the wealth will be equal, all the water will be pure, All the children will be fed, they’ll be healthy and secure, All the jobs will be open for women with equal pay. I know I could lead this country in a more inclusive way. So don’t tell me what to do! Don’t tell me what to Say! Don’t tell me what to wear! It’s time women had their way! So don’t tell me what to do! Don’t tell me what to say! Don’t tell me what to wear! It’s time women had their way! We will love each other, and we will love ourselves. We’ll forgive each other when women rule the world.
