...eARThsong...(lyrics)
This was written at a time that we were living in Chico California and were surrounded by a corral with 4 horses. We were also growing many plants including morning glory flowers that eventually got so tall that they climbed up to the roof of the little house. The tomato plants produced an abundance of food... quite a miracle...
Bm A D G
Planting, planting, planting seeds
D A D
May our garden grow...
Bm A D G
May God bless the earth and rain
D A D
And sprout the seeds I sow
D A D
And sprout the seeds I sow
CHORUS:
G Bm
We've been tilling soil since the dawn of time
A E
The fertile loam of home is nature most divine
G Bm
The lady with the hand upon the plow
A E
is identical, then and now
Weeding, weeding, weeding weeds
feed 'em to the horses
may God bless the new-born foal
and teach it natures forces
and teach it natures forces
Riding, riding, riding steeds
just like long ago
May God bless the hay they eat
and set their eyes aglow
and set their eyes aglow

WILSON BRIDGE (lyrics)
Wake up early in the morning, (CHORDS) D C
gotta go to work. G D
gotta drive across that Wilson Bridge, D C
my mind it just starts to hurt. G D
10,000 fools in 10,000 cars, D C
cross it every day. G D
as I sit behind my steering wheel, D C
I know there's got to be a better way! G D
CHORUS:
Because every day in every way, D A C G
life gets more annoying. D C D
every day in every way, D A C G
life gets more boring. D C D
I escaped from D.C.
and I burned my car.
Ride the light rail in San Jo se.
It's better by far.
10,000 fools in 10,000 cars,
still drive every day.
writing lyrics on this magic train,
I know I've found the better way!
CHORUS:
Every day in every way,
It's not so annoying.
Flirting with ladies on the subway train,
Sets my heartbeat soaring!
CITY OF THE FUTURE! (photo of energy research laboratory... click here) 
city of the future! (lyrics)
we are living in the city of the future
all of us have hi-tech jobs...
we don't give a dam about unemployment
that only happens to low tech slobs
be a nurd!
be a nurd!
I'm a high-tech wizard
BE A NURD!
They used to laugh @ me
when I was in high school
the social in set was so very proud
but now when those people
are searching thru the want ads
they say "I want to be one of the
computer crowd
be a nurd
be a nurd
be a high-tech wizard
BE A NURD!

MESCALITA (APACHE INDIAN GOD) I MET A GIRL NAMED MESCALITA
WITH COARSE BROWN HAIR.
SHE TAUGHT ME A SONG IN A DIFFERENT KEY.
NOW I LIVE THERE.
MESCALITA, MI HIJITA.
YOU SHOWED ME HOW TO LIVE.
MY LIFE WAS FILLED WITH SORROW.
BUT NOW I CAN GIVE.
I USED TO SING IN THE KEY OF "E"
A KEY OF BLUES AND PAIN.
NOW I SING IN THE KEY OF "g"
AND I'LL NEVER GO BACK AGAIN.
MESCALITA,MI AMIGA, YOU SHOWED ME HOW TO DANCE.
MY LIFE WAS FILLED WITH SORROW.
BUT I'LL GIVE LOVE ONE MORE CHANCE.
I WROTE THIS AFTER EATING PEYOTE
AT THE "RAINBOW GATHERING" IN PENNSYLVANIA.
THOSE DEADHEAD LADIES ARE SO SWEET...

My Invisible Friend (lyrics)
(Hay-Seuss)
I've got an invisible friend
and I call him Hay-seuss.
not Dr. Seuss or mother goose
but JESUS.
If you don't believe
in Hay-seuss or mother goose
you'll got to HELL (or Pittsburg)
and burn for eternity.
Oh, me and Jim Jones
we believe in Hay-seuss
and cyanide suicide
will get you quicker to his side.
I didn't eat for three days
and I heard voices
God talked to me
like I was on LSD
and said you're SATAN (or Peter Pan)
********************************
Direction (lyrics)
Wandering this world
Without direction we were lost
(I was)
We will build our life together
I can't, we can
Now I found you
And you found me
Never, never, never, never
Go on a first date again
No more lonely nights
No more lonely days
Then there was us
What a wonderful phrase to say
Because you trust me
And I trust you
Thank you, Lord, for Victoria (gregory)
The clouds have lifted and
I can see our future
We will be us
Forever
(Together)
