Lyrics

Nice 'N Easy Vibe 

Ladies and gentlemen!

So glad you all arrived

No rules here to bend

On our nice and easy vibe

 

You don’t spend a dime

Just roll up with the tribe

Ready for a good time?

Enjoy a nice and easy vibe


Nice and easy vibe

You can write the words in the sky!

Everyone black or white

Gay or straight or can’t decide

Is invited to the next cosmic ride!

 

Do you think the world’s in trouble?

C’mon, get down here on the double

You really oughta give it a try

Check out our nice and easy vibe


Old Lady 

I’d like to meet an old lady

Who gladly would take care of me

And maybe if the fates are kind

She would have a lot of money

 

Should I go to the bingo hall?

Or roam the shopping mall?

 

Older women sure know the drill

The time is waning so get real

Commitment is mythology

Let’s have fun with biology

 

Should I practice shuffle board?

Or buy clothes I can’t afford?

Go to a bar and down O'Doul's?

Watching the clock

Cos if it’s late

I gotta stay awake

Or look like a fool

 

Turn those lights way way down low

This certainly ain’t no Broadway show

Better yet just turn them off

Should we also take our clothes off?


 Joy of Surprise 

A road long, twisted and bleak

Unwinding for years and now behind me

Things take such a long time

While the beat goes on sublime

 

To ever reach the pinnacle

It seems like a miracle

When time and money and tears

And the unrelenting tyranny of fear

Finally melt away to reveal the metaphysical

 

The psychic breeze flowing over god's trees

Flowing through you and me

Restores the soul and caresses the shards

Satori here and there are cue cards

To avoid snares around the knees

 

So wonderful is the moment enjoyed

Experience the world when seen as a boy

Stars in vast space so far above

Tell each of us that we are god’s love

There is no center, no deep chasm to avoid

 

And there at last she was

A ray of light to be taken

To inspire the beautiful swan

To be awakened

The years folded and collapsed

And the magick was brought back

The hardships became lessons in disguise

In the presence of the joy of surprise 

 

County Fair

Today they open the county fair

Miss Holopaw will cut the ribbon

Pastor Tim will offer a prayer

To bless everyone attending

 

The Ferris wheel will start its spin

Barkers will hawk trinkets with a grin

 

If you think that your aim is sound

Pay a buck, throw the ball thru the air

If you knock the bottle down

Then you win that fluffy teddy bear

 

The Ferris wheel will start its spin

The tilt a whirl will come to life

Barkers hawk trinkets with a grin

Boys bring your gal, husbands your wife

 

The whole town looks forward to

Cotton candy, bag toss, hot dogs too

Ears of corn, ribs on the barbecue

Kids laugh and kick up sawdust

Brings back the child in all of us

 

In a world of taxes and money woes

And relationships that seem beyond repair

You now have a place to go

Chuck those worries and hit the county fair!

 

The whole town looks forward to

The bearded lady, clowns juggling too

Cotton candy, red, pink or blue

Plastic horses on the merry-go-round

A better time simply cannot be found!



Constable Carter's Holiday Hunt

On the edge of town in the old fairgrounds

In the bramble they call Sherlock Gamble

Constable Carter hosts his holiday hunt

Rabbits, foxes, birds, bears

Are hardly seen so just be aware

Watch your six…it’s dangerous out there

Not to be too blunt

 

Constable Carter’s holiday hunt

Isn’t your typical family affair

Bring your own bottle and pack that gun

Make sure you come loaded for bear

The woods get dark and be aware

The constable gets all the fun

 

You will start in Sherlock at the first sign of dark

Night vision glasses are not allowed

This is a fair hunt claims the paying crowd

Never mind those ugly rumors

That no animal is harmed

That is unless it has two arms

The hunt isn't a lark

 

The authorities in other counties

Don't date to interfere

The constable has connections

And can ruin political careers

 

Constable Carter is the law in this town

And he will investigate

If any bad stuff goes down

No need for agencies from city or state

Never mind the feeling 

You may never be found

 

Do not be afraid of the sudden fear

For wherever you are

The Lord will be near
