what did i ever do
ever do ever do
to justify
a black black sky
what did i ever do
ever do to you
to justify
this black black sky
i wish it would rain

yes poetry and music and art
are they the end or are they the start
bring yourself to the salon and see
who you are and who you soon will be

radiant blues:
if you cant be happy for me, go away.
if you can be happy for me, come and stay.
just dont let your shit get the hell in my way.
lots of work, lots of joy
lots of people to employ
house and garden must be right
lazy people out of sight

the ups the down the all arounds
the ins the outs the what abouts
the yess the nos the where to gos
the what to dos and what to knows
have crowded up my crowded mind
and bound my peace into a bind

we were friends on the bus
before bodies were a thought

just the cuddling smoke of two spirits

and we will be again

so if today
you in your painted shoes
and i in my tattered shirt

do not sit together on the bench

the bus will make another stop
and another

until we finish our homework
and pull the cord

exiting like lovers
hand in wispy hand
to the grand street park
to play

the heart is cold 
the house is hot
so much of what
is what is not

time to sleep, time to dream
time to join the fairy team
leave this world far behind
leave the ones who are unkind

someone else will be proud
and living on a cloud
holding you in his arms
kissing all of your charms
what a day, o what a night
what a darkness, what a light
now i lay me down in bed
halfway from alive to dead
im only a paper moon
sailing over a cardboard high
but it wouldnt be why o why
if you believed in me
now i lay me down in tears
always short a couple beers
if i should wake before i die
bring me cake and chocolate pie
