Aperu

Forward ever ascending on a stairway to heaven
Me and the children and mama make seven
My senses take over as we start to float
Higher and higher on a huge starbound boat
Forward ever ascending, our head in the clouds
I watch as the dolphins tear off all their shrouds
Your head is a halo, it catches the light
As i enter the gates what a glorious sight
Over and over and over and over, over and over and over we go
Over and over and over and over
Higher and higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher on a big black starliner

Each One Has One To Bet On

Three women together on a stroll,
Each one was confident of getting
Attention of men when come across
As they were betting on their merits:
One for fair skin, the other for tallness
And the third one for her toned body.

The man form is higher than the angel form; of all forms it is the highest. Man is the highest being in creation, because he aspires to freedom.

What Goes Around Comes Around

My pocket were full and now my moneys gone
My friends come around and now theyre gone
Things come and they come and then they go
And where they go nobody knows
Refrain
Its gonna come around
What goes around comes around
Its gonna come around
What goes around comes around
My cup over runneth with the fullness and grace
Yet people push bullshit in my face
The future cant hold what your money cant buy
My brother keep striving your child relies
Refrain
Its gonna come around
What goes around comes around
Its gonna come around
What goes around comes around
The world keep on spinning does the future know?
Were destined to screw ourselves one blow

The Rock Climber Of Stone Woods

He is innocent like a child
A pure soul
Climbing up rock and mountains
Head up in the sky
He has no answers for kids
No answers for loved ones
Climbing up higher and higher
Head up in the sky
Children need strong words
Need limits and discussions
He climbs higher and higher
Head up in the sky
No lover, no father, no brother and friend
Light like a feather climbing higher and higher
Head up in the sky
Mountains embrace him
World will forget him

I'm Really The Kind

I'm really the kind to dazzle and twirl
Have tantrums like silver slanting rain
Walk up to strangers
Parade with my pride
And stride like a lion up
A mad mountainside
So steep, so lovely
Don't think about the fall
Then suddenly, no warning
No nothing, I'm small
I'm small
Smaller than anyone, smaller than you
You see, I'm really the kind
To cower in the corner
And pray that some guy
Will have a kind word to say
Then be tiny in his arms
And be stroked to my heart
And coaxed and caressed
And combed and undressed

Man

With his hat on
he's about five inches taller
than a taxicab.
