YOU MADE ME SMILE!
YOU MADE ME SMILE
FOR A LITTLE WHILE
YOUR SILLY LIES
YOUR HIDDEN DISGUISE
LIVING IN A DREAM
NOT ALL YOU SEEM
SO POIGNANTLY SAD
OR IS IT MAD?
FEIGNING ASPIRATIONS
IN UTTER DESPERATION
SO EMASCULATED
UTTERLY FRUSTRATED
PRISONER OF PERCEPTION
LIVING IN DECEPTION
ALTER EGO USING
THINKING YOU’RE CONFUSING
YOU ARE SO NOT DEEP
AS YOUR TEARS YOU WEEP
AND WEEP YOU WILL FOREVER
WHILE WITH EVERYONE YOU SEVER
NEVER KNOWING PEACE OF MIND
TO YOUR TORMENT YOU ARE BLIND
ALL I DO I SAY A PRAYER
AND HOPE YOU WILL FIND
PEACE SOMEWHERE
YOU MADE ME SMILE
FOR A LITTLE WHILE!

OSCAR
OSCAR YOU WERE SUCH A LEGEND LIVING IN THE WRONG TIME
IF ONLY WE COULD BRING YOU BACK, NOW THAT WOULD BE DEVINE
NO ONE CAN COMPARE TO YOU, YOUR WIT, YOUR WAYS, YOUR STYLE
A MAN OF GREAT IMPORTANCE WHO WAS YEARS AHEAD OF TIME
YOUR OBSERVATIONS PERFECT, YOUR TAKE ON LIFE ASTUTE
YOU COULD NOT HIDE YOUR FEELINGS, SO EAGER TO BRING TRUTH
LIKE MANY OF US LIVING, YOU PLAYED THE GAME OF LIFE
AGAINST YOUR BETTER JUDGEMENT, YOU WENT AND TOOK A WIFE
IT WAS WHAT THEY ALL EXPECTED, A VICTIM OF THE TIMES
SOCIETY DID ENFORCE YOU TO ENACT THE WELL READ LINES
BUT IN THE END YOU SUFFERED, YOUR FATE WAS PURELY SEALED
THE LOVE THAT DARE NOT SPEAK ITS NAME, YOUR SECRET WAS REVEALED
EXILED TO A LIFE LONELINESS, A WASTE OF TALENT RAW
NOT ACKNOWLEDGED, JUST CONDEMNED FOR WHAT THEY CALLED A ‘FLAW’
THEY MIGHT HAVE ISOLATED YOU AND HOPED YOU’D GO AWAY
BUT HOW THEY FAILED SO MISERABLY IS EVIDENT TODAY
FOR EVEN WHEN YOUR SOUL PASSED ON, YOUR WRITING STILL REMAINS
AND ALWAYS WILL DEAR OSCAR, TRUE BEAUTY ALWAYS REIGNS
YOUR STORIES AND DRAMAS, YOUR SAYINGS AND YOUR WIT
WILL LIVE ON NOW FOREVER WHILE ON YOUR THRONE YOU’LL SIT
YOU LEFT US WITH A GIFT SO GREAT, A GOLDEN CHEST OF TREASURE
AND NOW IT HAS PROVIDED US, A LIFETIME FULL OF PLEASURE
Like this:
LOLLIPOPS
WANNA LICK MY LOLLIPOP?
ITS SWEET, ITS TASTY TOO
I’M FUSSY WHO I SHARE IT WITH
BUT I’LL GIVE IT TO YOU
I KNOW YOU WONT BE GREEDY
I KNOW YOU WILL BE NICE
I WILL BE YOUR SWEETNESS
YOU WILL BE MY SPICE
TOGETHER WE WILL TASTE IT
AND SAVOR THE SENSATION
INFUSING FLAVOURS O SO SWEET
CAUSING SUCH ELATION
CAN I LICK YOUR LOLLY TOO?
I WANT TO TASTE IT SO
I KNOW IT WILL BE AWSOME
I WANT TO LICK IT SLOW
AND TASTE IT DEEP AND FRUITY
AND THEN WE CAN COMPARE
WHO HAS THE NICEST LOLLY
I THINK ITS ONLY FAIR!
Like this:
DIGNITY
DIGNITY IS A GIFT FROM GOD
AND LOVE, AN INHERITED TRAIT
BUT WHY SO OFTEN DO WE FALL
INTO A TRAP OF HATE
OUR DIGNITY WE COMPROMISE
ON A FOOLISH WHIM OF HASTE
FLATTERED BY A SILVER TONGUE
WITH COMMENTS SWEETLY LACED
OUR DIGNITY JUST SAILS AWAY
AND LEAVES US ON A LEDGE
SO EASY FOR A PREDATOR
OUR INNER SELF TO WEDGE
TO WEDGE A RIFT SO DEEP WITHIN
A CONFLICT OF THE HEART
TO TAKE FROM US OUR SPIRIT WEAK
AND WITH OUR PRIDE WE PART
AESOP TOLD THE STORY WELL
THE FOOLISH CROW WITH CHEESE
BELIEVING OF A FOX SO SLY
WHO SAID THE WORDS TO PLEASE
THE CROW BELIEVING EVERY WORD
THAT A VOICE SO SWEET SHE HAD
OPENED UP HER BEAK TO SING
HER FOOLISH HEART SO GLAD
AND THEN THE CHEESE FELL TO THE GROUND
THE FOX HAD WON THE DAY
THE FOOLISH BIRD KNEW HER FOLLY
AS THE SLY FOX RAN AWAY
JUST LIKE THOSE WHO USE HUMANS
TO SATISFY THEIR NEEDS
BY PLYING THEM WITH COMPLIMENTS
AND SOWING FOOLISH SEEDS
BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR DIGNITY
GUARD IT WELL INDEED
AGAINST THE RATS WHO ROAM THE SEWERS
TO SATISFY THEIR NEED
Like this:
THANK YOU
THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVE LAST NIGHT
IT LINGERS IN ME STILL
YOUR TENDERNESS AND PASSION DEEP
THAT NEVER FAILS TO THRILL
THE WORDS YOU WHISPERED
IN MY EAR REVEALING HOW YOU FELT
THE WAY YOU LOOKED INTO MY EYES
AND ALMOST MADE ME MELT
YOU NEVER LOST IT ONCE MY LOVE
THAT GIFT YOU HAVE TO MAKE
THIS WOMAN FEEL SO SATISFIED
ALL OTHERS TO FORSAKE
THANK YOU FOR
THE LOVE LAST NIGHT
THANK YOU FOR MY LIFE
THANK JUST FOR LOVING ME……
YOUR EVER LOVING WIFE
Like this:
THE LONG DARK ROAD
HE WAS TRAVELLING DOWN A LONG DARK ROAD
A LONESOME SOUL WITH NO ABODE
A FLICKERING LIGHT IN THE DISTANCE HE SAW
HOPE AT LAST, HIS HEART DID THAW
AND KNOCKING UPON THE DOOR AT LAST
HE SAW HER THERE AND HIS HEART BEAT FAST
THROUGH A NARROW PASSAGE HE DID SQUEEZE
AS SHE HELD HIS HAND WITH NO RELEASE
QUICKLY AND SOFTLY THEY PASSED ON THROUGH
UNTIL THEY CAME TO ANOTHER SMALL ROOM
A FIRE WAS BLAZING, THE FLAMES WERE HIGH
THE HEAT SO GLORIOUS MAKING HIM SIGH
SHE WASHED AND DRIED HIM AND SAT HIM DOWN
SHE LOVINGLY FED HIM WITHOUT A SOUND
AND THEN SHE LOVED HIM, AND LOVED HIM AGAIN
UNTIL EVERY PART OF HIM DID POUND
SHE LAY HIM DOWN AND WHISPERED HIS NAME
TELLING HIM SHE WAS GLAD HE CAME
AND THEN THEY LAY THERE THROUGH THE NIGHT
AND LOVED EACH OTHER UNTIL DAYLIGHT
THE SUN IT ROSE IN THE SKY SO CLEAR
AS THEY HELD EACH OTHER NEAR
HE FELL ASLEEP WITHIN HER ARMS
AND DREAMED ABOUT HER AMPLE CHARMS
BUT WHEN HE WOKE, HIS LOVE WAS GONE
THERE WAS NO SIGN OF HER AT ALL
HE CRIED SO HARD WITH TEARS OF WOE
FOR IN HIS HEART HE SO DID KNOW
THAT FUTURE GIRLS WOULD COME AND GO
BUT NEVER AGAIN SUCH JOY HE’D KNOW…….
Like this:
TENDER HEARTS
TENDER HEARTS
ARE EASY TO BREAK
JUST ONE TIP
AND AWAY THEY ACHE
TRUSTING, GIVING
CARING AND PURE
FOR TENDER HEARTS
THERE IS NO CURE
TENDER HEARTS
ASKING SO LITTLE
READY AND WILLING
ALWAYS FORGIVING
TENDER HEARTS
FROM GOD ABOVE
SENT TO GIVE THE
WORLD SOME LOVE
PLEASE BE GENTLE
WHEN YOU MEET
A HUMAN BEING
WARM AND SWEET
A TENDER HEART
IS THEIRS INDEED
AND WITH THEIR
HELP, YOU CAN BE FREED…….
Like this:
CLOWN
YOU WANTED TO BE BRENDAN
BUT HE WAS AN OPEN BOOK
HE DIDNT CARE WHAT PEOPLE THOUGHT
HE DIDNT GIVE A FUCK
SOME PEOPLE DIDNT LIKE HIM
HE DIDNT GIVE A TOSS
HE KNEW HE WAS A GENIUS
HE WAS HIS ONLY BOSS
NOT LIKE YOU DEAR JOHNNY,
OR IS IT FRANK OR JOE
PRETENDING TO BE OTHERS
SO NOBODY WILL KNOW
THE MAN BEHIND THE KEYBOARD
HIS FINGERS ALWAYS SORE
NEVER CONTENT WITH WHAT HE HAS
ALWAYS SEEKING MORE
A MAN OF MANY FACES
AND NAMES AND MINDS AND HEARTS
EXISTING IN A DREAMWORLD
PLANNING FALSE NEW STARTS
YOU NEVER WILL BE BRENDAN
HE’D LAUGH UNTIL HE FELL
A NUT CASE HE WOULD CALL YOU
AND CURSE YOUR NAME(S) TO HELL!
I LOVE THAT REAL OLD SAYING
WHAT IS IT NOW…O WHAT????
“ITS BETTER TO BE HATED FOR YOU
THAN LOVED FOR WHAT YOU’RE NOT!!!”
I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR WRITINGS
I REALLY CANNOT WAIT
TO SEE WHAT KIND OF NONSENCE
FROM THAT CRAZY MIND ESCAPES!
HA HA YOU MAKE ME CHEERFUL
MY SPIRITS YOU SO LIFT
SMILING NOW INSIDE ME
THANK YOU FOR THAT GIFT!
NOW MAYBE THATS YOUR CALLING
CHEERING UP THE SAD AND DOWN
MAY I MAKE A SUGGESTION?
YOU SHOULD BECOME A CLOWN!!!
Like this:
A BEAUTIFUL MIND IN A CAGE
YOU SAID YOU HAD A BEAUTIFUL MIND.
BUT THEN, YOU ARE DELUSIONAL!
EXISTING IN A VIRTUAL WORLD
BECAUSE YOURS IS INSTITUTIONAL!
PRETENDING YOU ARE FREE AND WILD
BUT ROAMING IN YOUR CAGE
LONGINGLY LOOKING THROUGH THE BARS
LOOKING OUT IN RAGE
YOUR FOOD IS FLUNG INSIDE THE DOOR
YOUR WATER IN A BOWL
YOUR JAILER HAS YOU BY THE NECK
AND NOW SHE OWNS YOUR SOUL
A CAPTURED LIVING CREATURE WILD
A BEAST WHO SHOULD BE FREE
LIVING IN THE ZOO OF LIFE
WHAT A WAY TO BE
HAVE YOU GOT A BEAUTIFUL MIND
OR HAS IT BEEN DESTROYED?
CANT YOU GO AND LOOK FOR IT
OR DO YOU JUST AVOID
LOOKING FOR A WAY OUT
SEARCHING FOR YOUR DREAM
LETTING OTHERS TELL YOU
HOW YOUR LIFE SHOULD BE
A FRESH AND BUBBLING STREAMLET
RESIDING DEEP WITHIN
IS WAITING TO ESCAPE NOW
A NEW LIFE TO BEGIN
TAKE A STEP NOW TOWARDS ME
I’LL CATCH YOU IF YOU FALL
I WONT BE YOUR JAILER
I’LL BE HERE WHEN YOU CALL
WE ARE BOTH FREE SPIRITS
WHO EXIST IN HARMONY
NOBODY CAN OWN US
WE JUST WANT TO BE..
WE HAVE A DEEP CONNECTION
THAT NEVER WILL ERODE
OUR SPIRITS COME TOGETHER
LIKE DYNAMITE EXPLODES
USE THAT MIND OF BEAUTY
STOP LIVING IN A DREAM
BREAK DOWN ALL DELUSION
LET OUT YOUR FINAL SCREAM
PULL THOSE BARS APART NOW
STEP OUT THROUGH THAT GAP
RUN STRAIGHT FOR THAT JUNGLE
SUCH JOY YOU WILL UNWRAP…
Like this:
THE SECRET GARDEN
YOU ENTERED HER SECRET GARDEN DEEP IN THE DEAD OF THE NIGHT
CANDLES LIT THE PASSAGE LURING YOU TOWARDS DELIGHT
YOU SQUEEZED YOURSELF SO TIGHTLY THROUGH A GAP SO SMALL
THERE WAS NO WITHDRAWING NOW, YOU HAD TO SEE IT ALL
A SIREN’S VOICE WAS SINGING, THE MOON WAS FULL AND HIGH
YOU HAD NO RESISTANCE AS YOU HEARD HER SIGH
YOUR SIGHS STARTED ALSO AS PLEASURE FILLED YOUR SOUL
THE POINT OF NO RETURN NOW, YOU MUST FULFILL YOUR ROLE
YOUR ROLE OF DEEP SUBMISSION TO A LOVE THAT WILL REMAIN
A LITTLE TASTE OF HONEY THAT HAS BOUND YOU IN A CHAIN
YOU THOUGHT THAT IT WAS OVER AND YOU COULD RUN AWAY
BUT LITTLE DID YOU KNOW THAT IN YOUR HEART SHE’D STAY
FOR YOU ARE NOW A PRISONER, AND GUESS WHO HAS THE KEY
EVEN WHEN YOU’RE FAR AWAY, YOUR HEART BELONGS TO SHE..
