LYRICS
Fluttering pink and white petals
Creates a blanket as it settles
Will the mountains and canyons shake
Will children of the sun awake?

Children of the sun
Blossoms in the wind
When the day is done
Where have you been

Now that you’re living in castles
You can’t cope with any hassles
The love child’s gone wild?
Turned to milk-toast… lame and mild

Children of the sun
Blossoms in the wind
When the day is done
Where have you been

ABOUT THE SONG
C Am D G
C Am
C G

This is a song about bands from the 60’s that sang about love and flower children. Then, they got older and richer. They turned into hypocrites living in castles. In the Led Zeppelin song “Going To California”, they sing “The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake… as the children of the sun began to awake.”

LYRICS
If times are rough, getting too tough
Do the shuffle
Take it to the street with your happy feet
Do the shuffle

For a method that’s tried and true
The elixir fixer for you
A sample dance that you can do

Got a brain fart… don’t know how to start
Do the shuffle
Do it with conviction! Do it with heart!
Do the shuffle

For a method that’s tried and true
The elixir fixer for you
A sample dance that you can do

Shake it loose. Turn on the juice.
Do the shuffle
It’s not too late to participate
Do the shuffle

For a method that’s tried and true
The elixir fixer for you
A sample dance that you can do

LYRICS
Mother Nature is getting her act together
Looks like we’re in for some extreme weather
Better batten down the hatches
Check the locks and check the latches
The clouds foreshadowing doom
‘less corrective action is taken soon

Better of not fooling with Mother Nature
Just another man-made folly for sure
Amaze with a haze… the lines we blur
Bringing on the rapture is no cure
The clouds foreshadowing doom
‘less corrective action is taken soon

We had better think twice ’bout being nice
Skating on thin ice won’t suffice
Deadline is upon us… time to pay the price
Stork of midnight. Coach to pumpkin. Horses to mice.
The clouds foreshadowing doom
‘less corrective action is taken soon

As long as we keep hope in our scope
Promise is: we can not miss

Cross my heart and hope to die
Start helping the alive thrive

Keeping faith in the light
Guiding toward what is right
Through the darkest night
Keeping faith in the light

Through the densest fog
Like a scent to hound dog
Seeking out the light
Peeking in the light

LYRICS
I thought I was winning the race
When I heard a voice say, “Pick up the pace!”

Are you aware
The turtle doesn’t always beat the hare
In fact, only one in a million beat him there

Time to put on the shoe and tie the lace
Keep the foot out of the mouth on my face
Time to pick up the pace

You invented the clock (tick-tock)
Now its slave, you work
The ship has left the dock
Spoon’s run away with the fork
Workin’ for the clock (tick-tock)

LYRICS
I know you’ve a long row to hoe
But, in the time seep the benefits you’ll reap

Invest our soul into what’s best
The rest will be easy
… just you wait and see

Before you know, it will start to grow
Magic-like leap into the light out of the deep

Before you know it, you’ll turn grey
Teeth fall out…. senses not felt… call it a day

In the meantime, play your hearts chime

LYRICS
I know it’s not right
But, I’m done with your fight
Not sure if I’ve seen the light
Perhaps blessed with second sight

Falling out of love

All your life trying to grow-up
Makes me want to throw-up

Falling out of love
Taking off the gloves
You could say I’m not gonna play
You could say that I’m on my way

Falling out of love

LYRICS
There’s some commotion
And, it’s staying in motion
Quick like Isaac
“An object in motion stays in….”
Loco-commotion (x3)
Notion

Tangled up emotion
That’s staying in motion
Quick like Isaac
“An object in motion stays in….”
Loco-commotion (x3)
Notion

Some sort-of love potion
Accelerating motion
Quick like Isaac
An outside force of course
Loco-commotion (x3)
Notion

Laissez-faire when Spring is in the air

LYRICS
Do you find it hard to believe
The air’s not fit to breath
Do you find it spoils the fun
Stayin’ out of the sun

Can you please tell me, “What do you think of that?”
Can you please tell me, “Will you tip your hat?”

Do you hope they’ll relieve
… unwilling to receive
Do you pray someone will say,
“I’m here to save the day!”

Can you please tell me, “What do you think of that?”
Can you please tell me, “Will you tip your hat?”

Do you know what I mean about the rivers and streams
Waterfowl run afoul ain’t no “merrily dreams”

Can you please tell me, “What do you think of that?”
Can you please tell me, “Will you tip your hat?”

LYRICS
Take a moment and jump off the crust
Give your spirit a cosmic thrust
You know how they say “Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.”
For the mortal body is a must
The real life… for it I lust
Hitchhiker’s sign says, “Heaven or Bust!”
Gonna take a moment and jump off the crust
As soon as I feel a gust

As soon as I feel a gust
Gonna take a moment and jump off the crust

Take a moment and jump off the crust
Give your spirit a cosmic thrust
To begin, just stick your toe in

Next time I feel a gust
Gonna take a moment and jump off the crust
