҉ PorchStomp ҉
We'll reach that moment of inspiration
We find ourselves in a prime location
And we're thinking about thinking about thinking about Skinny dippin' Under the stars, moonlight and Mars
Night to day dries up the Milky Way
We'll find ourselves full of inspiration
We'll ride the Earth and slow down its rotation
With our snappy tunes, and our happy feet
We'll swing so low and we'll sing so sweet
It starts far, it starts high
It starts halfway up the mountainside
and there ain't no money like sunshine
It carries blood, it carries life
It's got a heartbeat that's deep inside of me now
ain't no money like sunshine
In the land of inspiration
We sing of love and of dedication
We followed the map but left no trace
On the way to our hiding place
We live like gypsies, we live like Czars
Who spend their weekends swinging guitars
and there ain't no money like sunshine
ain't no money like sunshine
ain't no better way to spend my time
ridin' on the wings of a dragonfly
with the rhythm of a prism I can touch the sky
Oooh oooh yeah
Lay it down in blue high shag
Make your tail start to wag
Wompaloobow a womp bam bang
You gots to learn to start to hang
Tangerine green and bongo beige
You're right on time, take the stage!
PorchStomp rhythm locked down tight
Grab your partner and make 'em feel right
In the sunlight, the sunlight...

Best Times Comin'

҉ Best Times Comin' ҉
When life stands still at the bottom of a hill
You're invisibill
When life stands still and you've got some time to kill
Become invisibill
And night after night I've been drivin'
Because I can't sit home
Tear off my rear view mirror
Airplane mode my phone
When life stands you up, up against the wall
Become a cannonball
When life turns you down, crank up the sound
This train is glory-bound
And night after night I keep drivin'
Because I can't sit home
Laugh in the rear view mirror
Airplane mode my phone
Because the best times are comin up!
When life takes a swing, jump on out the ring
Who is the man who would be king
When life catches fire, light up your tires
Don't be afraid of desire
And night after night I've been drivin'
Because I can't sit home
Smile in my rear view mirror
Airplane mode my phone
Because the best times are comin up!
When life calls your bluff you can stop actin' tough
You've got more than enough
When life sends you love, its time to drop the gloves
and thank the stars above
And night after night I keep drivin'
Because I can't sit home
City lights in my rear view mirror
Reflecting in my chrome...

҉ Hallelujah Highway (Sweet Virginia) ҉
Take a look at me and see what you like
Take what you want to liven up your life
Write down your problems and tear 'em on up
Let 'em all blow out the window and blow away...
Sweet Virginia you come home right away
The sky is bloomin' and a fire's on the way
I see it fallin', we'll catch it if we run
Sweet Virginia, face turned toward the sun
And I feel fine!
Sweet Virginia, your face is just like wine
As you get older, you pass the test of time
The river's deeper that's runnin' through your mind
Sweet Virginia please hold this hand of mine
And I feel fine!
Sweet Virginia, nature's been so kind to you
Love her madly, it's the least that you can do
A rusted robin, lookin' toward her nest
Sweet Virginia, I'm starin' at her breast
And I feel fine!
Better hurry up if you wanna get on
The hallelujah highway is rollin' its way back home...

When the Lights Go Out

҉ When the Lights Go Out ҉
I can see in the dark
Because you light my way with your spark
And you diffract the light like a prism
Your halo strobes and your hips keep the rhythm
I can't help when I howl at the moon
Somethin' in your eyes, a deeper shade of blue
When the lights go out
Got to feel your way
When the lights go out
We can start a little fire, make it grow a little higher
Feed your desire 'til we walk in the sunrise
I can see through time
Because you're mine, shinin' brightly
With handfuls of stars that you scatter
Constellations form above the backyard
And I'll be there when the planets align
Rubbin' your lantern, making you shine
When the lights go out
Got to feel your way
When the lights go out
Just feel your way, it'll be OK
When the lights go out
We can start a little fire, make it grow a little higher
Feed your desire 'til we're watchin' the sunrise
And I can't help when I howl at the moon
Somethin' in your eyes, a deeper shade of blue
When the lights go out
Got to feel your way
When the lights go out
Just feel your way, it'll be OK
When the lights go out It feels OK, yeah it feels OK
When the lights go out
We can start a little fire, make it grow a little higher
Feed your desire 'til we walk in the sunrise!

҉ Stolen Moments ҉
I miss the parts that I can see
Wavy lines on my TV
Paper lanterns break my fall
Don't leave me hangin' on your wall
And when memories got you lookin' down
Put 'em back underground
Bring some milk 'cuz I brought honey,
Can't you see it's warm and sunny
Lay your bike beside the river
Tell Mother Nature we forgive her
Cuz winter snow makes rivers swollen and
Stolen moments are made of gold and blue
Fro-rozen in time with you
I cut the tracks without a knife,
Warmin' up a little tiny slice of life
And when that pie is finally served
I give her just what she deserves
You don't have to be an anarchist
To make the top of my list
Bring some milk 'cuz I brought honey,
Can't you see it's warm and sunny
Lay your bike beside the river
Tell Mother Nature we forgive her
Cuz winter snow has rivers swollen and
Stolen moments are made of gold and blue
Fro-rozen in time with you
Tap your toes and drag your feet
Shake your rumpa to the funky beat
I'll make your smile look just like new
Sing Home Sweet Home like Mötley Crüe
While you're waiting for that shooting star
Dig a bit of my guitar
Bring some milk 'cuz I brought honey,
Can't you see it's warm and sunny
Lay your bike beside the river
Tell Mother Nature we forgive her
Cuz winter snow made rivers swollen and
Stolen moments are made of gold and blue
Fro-rozen in time with you

҉ Rainy Day Sunshine ҉
Don't let the rain ever get you down
Open the window and dig the sound
It sounds like an applauding crowd
No one's ever out walkin' around
It's like you've got the world to yourself
Gives you a feelin' that's never felt north of the belt
Rainy day sunshine, life can feel so fine
Rainy day sunshine found me today
I open all the windows real wide
Breathe the fresh air, let the breezes inside
I pull the blinds as high as I can
Let the sun shine through a drop at a time
I watch the river of water flow
Bubbles along, don't be afraid to let it carry you home
Rainy day sunshine, life can feel so fine
Rainy day sunshine found me today
I don't sing of weather
Life lasts forever
Rainy day sunshine found me today
Made a big cloud and blew it away
I spend the day just watchin' it rain
Clings to the screen, falls on the pane
A rainy day leaves no drought in your mind
Tickles the trees, makes new fronds every time
And that's why I love the color green
Rainy day sunshine like a long wet dream
A doompa di di

Coffee

҉ Coffee ҉
And now it's time for coffee
Even though I'm not cold
I grow tired without a little coffee
Makes me feel like I'm gettin' old
A speedball in the evening
Feels like coffee and me go floating
Coffee…
Whipped cream is a pillow
An underworld delight
And while you sit there lickin' your fingers, girl
I wanna hold you so tight
And share a little coffee
Another lovin' cup of coffee
Another cup of coffee between you and I
Coffee between you and I
And we run out of cream
And a broken percolator
Overflowing coffee machine
And soon I take out the screws and go deep inside her
I need to fix it
For coffee sustains me
Coffee maintains me
Coffee…
I think it's fatal
The heat sensor's fried
It burnt right through and the part is obsolete
I don't know what I'm gonna do
I can hardly keep my feet
I need more coffee, maybe some chocolate
I need some coffee, maybe more chocolate
No really coffee is the only thing
Coffee is the only thing
Coffee is the only thing that sets me free
Coffee…

҉ GlueStick ҉
I can't count the stars when they're spinning around the void
But seeing your face
When I wake up and enjoy warm mornings
Chorus
One and one make two we just stick together like glue
And we're feeling stronger dance a little longer
We're marking the miles with kisses and smiles
Spinning the vinyl backwards
Chorus repeat
I can't count the ways we chase passing days
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you make me feel
Chorus repeat
Dropped my third eye on the ground
And caught my mind on the reboundin' skyhook
That rhythm jumped into the chasm for a full eargasm blast
of pop-rockin' Tony Robbin droppin' beats
That self-motivate you to pop some bubblewrap tightly
Round a rhyme, sippin' soda and lime 'cuz tonight's all mine
So I'll sing a valentine to the angel of my eye
To the one and only pie
Chorus repeat

Move the clouds
and try to make your father proud
Move the earth
Let the world see what you're really worth
And I fly after you
Stellar, in a field of blue
Time flies too
You know it's chasin' after me and you
Don't slow down,
Wait to land 'til we find hallowed ground
And I fly after you
Stellar, in a field of blue
Winds can change
Your destiny is never pre-ordained
Put up your sail
The breath of future times becomes a gale
And I fly after you
Smile all afternoon
Stellar, in a field of blue

҉ Love Dream ҉
I just want to sleep today
I don't have a thing to say
my lullaby is the falling rain
Don't wake me up
'cause with a little luck
I'll dream about my youth again
and it might seem so sad
to wish for what I had
and everyone knows you can't buy time
so rain or shine...
Chorus
send a love beam
swim in a love stream
live in a love dream with me
I just want to drive today
I've got nowhere to be
I'll find a highway and flip a coin
I just want to feel the earth
under my tires burn
waiting to see what's come alive
and it might not make sense
if you've never felt
the weight of the world
like its got no end to it
so any old time...
Chorus repeat
I just want the lights down low
Adrift in the afterglow
Rudderless on an open sea
and who catches a falling star?
Roman candles and a red guitar
just try to sing with honesty
and it might not seem real
when you don't know what to feel
but there's nowhere to be so take your time
and if you don't mind...
Chorus repeat
