Part 1: The Whistle One
Too much violence in the world, police sirens.
People fighting wars when we’re really craving silence.
Peace and love at core, not all this violence.
But when are we going to learn to drop our arms?
We’ve been taught to colour in the bigger picture
Like painting by numbers when there’s more than one to seven
Colours in the rainbow, life’s not defined in black and white
For there’s mid-grey and many differing hues too.
Each time I take a trip to town to have a look around
I see people walking backwards down the up escalator
Going round and round in circles seeking the eternal answer
When it lays deep inside each of us.
Change they say takes many lifetimes
It doesn’t happen overnight or in the blink of an eye
But I’ve a rebel mind and I’m really quite certain
That the clean up process really won’t take long.
...and...
Part 2: Quick Ditty
People think I’m this
And people say I’m that
Well actually I’m a mother-f***ing twat
And that really is a matter of fact
And a pretty darn large cunt at that
Some people say I take the piss
And I say, ‘Yes, at least ten times a day.’

A BettE.R. Way
02:19
|
|||
Here I am sitting in this mood again
Unable to describe the state I am in
Or even find the words to say
Why I am so blue and behaving in this way
But I know I want our world to change
Its violent and ill-formed ways
Laws, corruption, murder everyday
Surely there is a better way
Yes, it's us, society accepting these twisted rules
That are so outdated and so old-school
Over time we've turned our world to sin
And I think that's why I'm in this state I'm in
So i know I've got to find better way
If I am to live a brighter day
if I'm ever going to fit in
Into this state we are living in
Look around in Mother Nature beauty is found
Yet we insist on tearing it down
Instead of living with our land
Our ongoing mistakes I find so hard to understand
Yet this compels me on
To know that I am strong
And always in believing
That there is a better way.

Can’t you see I’m tired of all this crazy messing around?
We’re all stuck here in limbo our feet high of the ground
Not wanting to lose all of the good things that we’ve found
But can’t you see I’m tired of all this crazy messing around?
I’m not one to fight but I don’t easily give in
If only this whole madness had never started in sin
All we can do is be true from within
So I’ll start by saying I don’t easily give in
Why can’t we stop holding back and move full steam ahead
I think we’d all ignite with what we found instead
Let’s embrace the magic and not live our lives in dread
Why can’t we stop holding back and move full steam ahead
Why won’t you just tell me something that I don’t already know
We have to forget and believe in that what we reap is what we sow
You must agree there’s so much love to grow
So why won’t you just tell me something I don’t already know
I know it’s hard to let go but there’s so much new to feel
We have re-learn again a love that can be real
stop trying to deny our natural appeal
I know it’s hard to let go but there’s so much new to feel

Part 1: Saturn's Returns
I'm wearing clothes for the morning
My stance is a cocoon
My whole body is just a shell of me
For my heart has left the room
My soul left before my heart
They are waiting for my mind
And when they have the all of me
There'll be nothing left behind
Part 2: AEIOU
I’ve been thinking about this life we are living
And I don’t know if I’m ever going to figure it out
And I’ve been wondering about this path we are wandering
And sure enough I’m still wondering where we are aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.
People talking but our minds go walking
Do we ever listen honestly?
People looking but our eyes are merely blinking
Oh tell me is something that we really seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
Trapped by fear and hemmed in by life
We’re fed a daily diet of lies
Peoples’ greeds and socities’ needs
Are miseducated and they make me want to criiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiy.
There seems to be confusion about the mental constitution
Of the people who lead from the top
Well when are we going to realise that it really isn’t a surprise
That even at death they do not stoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooop?
We’ve been teaching wrongs and not been doing rights
And led to this state of severe untruth
You’d think we’d have learnt by now
But somehow still manage to screw up what we do between me and youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
You told me I was stupid and my mind had nothing in it
Well I’ve learnt enough to know that you were wrong
I spent my life observing you and have so much I’d like to say to you
So I started to write these songs fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffor aeiou.
Part 3: Dimension What, Degnared?
Where, oh where are we
Oh please can you tell me what is this dimension that I see
So flat, so out of key
Oh please can you tell me what is reality
This gift, this gift of life
Turned instead to war and strife
The rich, the powers that be
Oh please tell me what are they doing to you and me
Miseducated, afraid to work
Minds scared, hands afraid of dirt
Eyes closed tight, so blind to see
Hearts trapped, minds closed, blinkered ignorantly
Cold, unfeeling with fear to feel
Or even face up to what it is that we have all made real
People on the streets waving arms in the air
Too many lives torn apart by the few who do not care
Oh, where, oh where are we,
Oh please tell me what is this dimension that I see
And when, when are we going to change
This blurred reality that we have made so deranged
For where, oh where am I
So very sick and tired of all the lies
And where, oh where are you
Amidst the very little things that you do?

Been feeling so sad, my head in my hands and
The longer I sit here, the more it gets worse
But my life really ain’t that bad, it’s just I’ve been feeling so sad and
The longer I sit here, the more it gets worse
Been stuck in a rut, can’t seem to get off my butt and
the longer I sit here, the more it gets worse
Caught in a catch 22, with an endless list of things to do and
the longer I sit here, the more it gets worse
So in my own stillness I reaffirm my centredness
Inner calm, peace, stability
A sense of balance and vision and faith and soul integrity
For I need to stoke my own stamina
If I’m ever going to tie the many metaphorical loose ends
That are fraid and torn and tattered
Left me at the end of my tether
Tired in retreat and needing to mend
But please don’t get me wrong, this is not meant to be a sad song but
The longer I sit here, the more it gets worse
There’s a raging storm going on, big change in store for everyone and
The longer we sit here, the more it gets worse
So I’m ready to change, my life rearrange for
I’ve sat here too long now, can’t let it get any worse
Don’t want to miss my next chance, to get off my arse so
I’m not going to sit here any longer, got to put an end to all this hurt

Oh what did you go and hurt me for?
Did you want to make me fall?
Oh why did you go and hurt me at all?
Do you want to hear me scream some more?
Or shout down the door?
Oh what did you go and hurt me for?
So you said that I met another edge
Of the being inside your head
It came out to play the other night
But don’t you think we’re all unhinged?
And it just depends on how we chose to swing
And release the energy that’s built up within
Oh what did you go and hurt me for?
Did you want to make me fall?
Oh why did you go and hurt me at all?
Do you want to hear me scream some more?
Or shout down the door?
Oh what did you go and hurt me for?
And then later on your gentle self
Held my head close to your chest
And we slept so peacefully
And we woke and we laughed
As we cleansed ourselves
And said we’d discuss the edge later on
Oh what did you go and hurt me for?
Did you want to make me fall?
Oh why did you go and hurt me at all?
Do you want to hear me scream some more?
Or shout down the door?
Oh what did you go and hurt me for?
So I guess I saw a side that’s new to me
And I’m sure it’s not the last I’m going to see
So however strange I’ll treat them tenderly
For that’s the edge that I love the best
The calm, kind loving one holding me to their chest
Who laughs so happily
So please, please, please don’t go and hurt me more
For I don’t want to scream or shout or run from door
But to live and to learn and to laugh a lot
And to make the most of what we have got
And to love for evermore
To love for evermore
To love for evermore

Pixie Eyes
03:29
|

Sometimes I feel so down and out I don’t know how to lose my frown
But I think of you and I smile again it doesn’t matter where you are
Near or far, of course I’d like you by my side
But all I need to know is that you’re warm and feeling love
Sometimes I feel so down and out I don’t know how to lose my frown
But I think of you and I smile again it doesn’t matter where you are
Near or far, of course I’d like you by my side
But all I need to know is that you’re warm and feeling love
For the joy you bring to me has filled my life with ecstasy
And no matter where you are from me, I love the thought of loving you
And all the love that you’re loving too
Oh, how I love you, yes, how I love you, oh how I love you, how I love you
For how you’ve helped me grow, enriched my soul and warmed my spirits
I don’t know how I could’ve laughed as much or learnt as much without you by side
Oh those sacred times of loving with you and loving you and being loved by you too
Being loved by you too, being loved by you too, being loved by you too, being loved by you too
For when you touched my heart you lit a spark my mind can follow
You make each tomorrow a fresh start, today a gift and yesterday a memory aglow with bliss
For our paths met and the love we’ve shared has helped us love ourselves
However near or far, I feel you by my side
However near or far, I feel you by my side
Looking pixie eyes
I read your mind
I feel your heart
I get who you are
And the depth of your soul
It makes me howl and growl
For the pleasure I get from loving us
You and I are we
Are free

Yoo Hoo (Ooh Hoo)
02:48
|
|||
You hoo ooh hoo
You hoo ooh hoo
I can’t keep hurting myself over you
However hard I have to accept
What you do and who are you
I’ve been aching so much
I know it’s time for me to stop
Letting myself keep hurting over you hoo ooh hoo
But you penetrated my skin
You’re all around me and within
My heart, my soul, my spirit, my dreams, my psyche, my every being
You form the air I’m breathing and every sound I’m hearing
You helped make this life I’m living
With or without you hoo ooh hoo
So I wake each day anew and I start again
Trying to fit into this crazy world we’re all living in
Ruled by fascist dictators
Who care not much for their voters
Killing life and Mother Nature
Who the fuck are you hoo ooh hoo?
When I could so easily roll over and go back to sleep
And keep on letting myself hurt over you
So many tears that I could weep
But where would that get me?
Except caught in my own sense of misery
Created by me all over you hoo ooh hoo
So I’ll find my own two feet
And I’ll stand tall in all I do
Accept the things I cannot change and strive to do the things that I can do
Like loving, caring, sharing, co-creating
This beautiful world we live in
With thoughts of you hoo ooh hoo

New Clear Reign
03:39
|
|||
Nice and easy does it, no need to tow the mark
Slow and gently goes it, all we need is a little spark
Call of hope to remain strong
Through these times of change
Whilst we rearrange
Our priority checklist or is that a hit-list, a wish-list
Oh well let’s just do this list and change
Come now it’s been too long
We’ve been destroying our land we all live upon
Washing our hands and passing the blame
When are we ever going to hear what the so-called experts have to say about the oncoming
New Clear Reign
Storm down on me
For now I know
In fact you know I’ve always known
What it is I am living for
And I can feel you right here beside me
Touching my skin
And I feel a deep sense of life
In every sound, in every touch and every sight
And I know that there’s a spark deep inside of me
Burning endlessly strong
And glowing on.

Lucky Lady
06:53
|
|||
Oh yes I am a lucky lady, I live a very lucky life
For I have so many great friends and family all around me
Who love me through the strife.
But I notice a deep sense of sorrow emanating through my songs
But this pain is not what is within me, it’s a reflection of the far too many wrongs
That are carried out by those above who rule us
Dictating the systems and the structures that we live under
Misleading us up the wrong garden path and expecting us to just conform and soldier on.
Oh come, oh come the cultural reign and thundE.R. for my cloud is so ready to burst
For I feel the social storm that’s been brewing now for far too long
It’s time for Mother Nature’s Children to be heard.
Please don’t get me wrong I’m an artist and I see beauty all around me
Life’s potential and sheer and utter brilliance
But I can’t deny or ignore the despair that’s been eating you and me
People keep telling me to straighten up my ways, pull up my socks
Take responsibility, get a grip, learn to keep a stiff upper lip
They’ve got their dignity and they’ve earned their respect
By fitting in, doing their jobs and trying their best
But you know I don’t like what I hear
So come, oh come the cultural reign and thundE.R. for my cloud is so ready to burst
For I feel the social storm that’s been brewing now for far too long
It’s high time for Mother Nature’s Children to be heard
Likewise I’m trying too and I like mostly what I see
And I love this life I am living but I hate the bureaucracy of being me

No Ordinary Game Of Life
03:45
|
|||
I’ve been haunted by demons all of my life
Not the fearful, possessive ones but the sweetest of types
Of spirits and past-lives who show me the way
And offer me pure light by night and by day
Darkness guides me and warms me of which way to go
And teaches and encourages me to let my love flow
And support me through the things I’m yet to know
And most all to help me grow
The feelings and sensations nurture my soul
And help me realise my full potential
And to learn from the past and to live in the present
And to manifest a future of goodness and celebrate what is sent
Well I’ve met so many people who’ve helped me get along
To learn to live to love a lot in order to grow strong
Grow stronger and stronger by day and by night
Always dream good thoughts of pureness and light
We’ve been twisted and blighted through life as we know it
And tumbled and tossed through this world as we have made it
A place of dementia of power gone sour
Some call us weeds but I water us as flowers
Of beauty, hope, faith, courage and more
For from life’s tough beatings we could’ve been floored
But we radiate pure beauty an intellect so sure
Products of our own wisdom and not society’s man-made and twisted flaws
So think of what you’re doing, being and saying
For this ain’t no ordinary game of life that you’re playing at
And think of what I’m doing, being and saying
For this ain’t no ordinary game of life I’m praying for
And think of what they’re doing, being and saying
For this ain’t no ordinary game of life they’re manipulating
And think of what we are doing, being and saying
For it ain’t no ordinary game of life we’re co-creating
And most of just think and do and be and say
For this ain’t no ordinary game of life at play

Again and Again

I read some tabloid news today and I filled my head with the words they have to say
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
And I watched some daytime TV and I filled my mind with the images they want us to see
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again
Oh, I listended to some radio to day and I filled my mind with the music that they play
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
And I surfed the World Wide Web today and I filled my head with the messages they send
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
Yes I hear you when you say there are no side effects
You are just feeding your daughter and paying the rent
Yet maybe you don’t notice as you’ve done your work and left
Well wash your hands how ever many times but the problems won’t just go away
And yes I know you thought I was out to attack you
When I was just asking a question to the person I know best
For I err away from judgement and instead observe at best
All of our problems and their many side effects
All of our problems and their many side effects
Too much life now seems like an eternal problem
Externally fought but stemming from within
So many false judgements outside of us
Permeating each and every one of us
And so many turn a blind eye and let news fall on death ears
Turn the other cheek and sleep, denying our dreams yet never quite awake
Oh are we ever going to stand up and put an end to all this shit
Or are we to just continue perpetuating this same old nonsense?
Or are we to just continue perpetrating this same old nonsense
First you say you love me then you say don’t
You used to say you get me but now you say, ‘Piss off’
We used to laugh together
But now we’re so far apart
And you used to help me with my work
But no longer care to support
Yet still I wonder how you are and I hope you’re doing OK
Because whatever’s been and gone my friend, you’ll always be special to me
yes, whatever’s been and gone my friend, you’ll always be special to me
We’re surrounded by so much confusion, blurred boundaries, systems gone wrong
So many false judgements and blinded observations
We’re being led to inaccurate conclusions and expected to just carry on
But I don’t know how much longer I can keep this up, I now so want to move on
Alas we’re still stuck fast in a twisted past
Holding onto bygones, grudges and pointless competitions
Striving towards backwards superlatives and refusing to just get along
Well, wherever we are in this game of play
I’ll up my mark by stepping down and learn to give up
Yes, I’ll up my mark by stepping down and learn to give up
I read some tabloid news today and I filled my head with the words they have to say
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
And I watched some daytime TV and I filled my mind with the images they want us to see
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again
Oh, I listended to some radio to day and I filled my mind with the music that they play
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
And I surfed the World Wide Web today and I filled my head with the messsages they send
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and armageddon and again and armageddon and again and again thearmed909 again

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohoooooohooohoohooohoohoohooooooo
How I’d like to love you
But you feel so forever scared
And hurt and traumatised by past lives gone by
Oh your history has left you scarred
How I’d like to help heal those old wounds
And kiss them all away
Yes, Kiss them all away
Oh, kiss them all away
A gentle rub to make everything now ok
And to wake up in love again
And at ease and relaxed
With no fears or regrets or thoughts of second best
How I’d like to be more to you
Than just another cunt on legs
Yes, just another cunt on legs
Oh, just another cunt on legs
A great set of legs by far
With no desire to wear the trousers
But to co-exist with you in loving bliss
And to make the most of all that is
So free and pure and true
Yes, so free and pure and true
Oh, so free and pure and true
Oh, how I’d like to love you
Hell yeah, I’d like to love you
God knows, I’d like to love you
Oh, but what’s a girl supposed to do?
Hell yeah, what’s a girl supposed to do?
Heaven knows what a girls supposed to do
But be
Hell yeah, but be
Heaven knows, but be
Kiss them all away
Just another cunt on legs
So free and pure and true
Kiss them all away
Just another cunt on legs
So free and pure and true
Kiss them all away
Just another cunt on legs
So free and pure and true
