All Over This World …….M. Kirby
All over this world people have the same dreams
All over this world we all want the same things
Everybody wants a clean glass of water
Everybody wants good food to eat
Everybody wants a safe place for their children
You ask anyone you meet
All Over This World
All over this world kids all want the same things
All over this world they all have the same dreams
Everybody wants their chance to shine like a star
Everybody wants to join in the Dance
Everybody wants to have their place in the sun
Here they can give peace a chance
All over this world

Big Moon ……………………M. Kirby
Waiting for the moon to rise.
And light the last of winter’s skies.
We stand below by our bonfires,
Waiting for the moon to rise,
chor
So we can dance! all through the night,
Underneath this big moon bright.
Till we fall down beside the fire
With someone to love somebody to love.
Waiting for the Spring to come,
And melt the ice in everyone.
Let the frost and fear fall free,
Reach out your hand and come with me …to the
Dance all through the night
Underneath this big moon bright.
Till we fall down beside the fire,
With someone to love somebody to love!

Dirty Little Town……………. M. Kirby
Chor)
It’s a Dirty little town
It’s a dirty little town
It’s a dirty little town
‘round here tonight
Even the sun won’t shine down on this town
Even the moon wont rise up here anymore
Even the stars stay behind the clouds of Magellan
They won’t be shining here tonight
Even the Trees are ashamed to be seen
CHOR)
Even the dogs won’t walk down these streets
Even the birds won’t sing their songs here anymore
Even the smallest of creatures, know this is no place
To try to make a stand
Even the Gods have given up on this place

Ecstasy M. Kirby
Theresa is dancing on her own
The boys know to leave her alone
They just like to watch her sway.
They won’t get in the way
Of her Ecstasy
2)Theresa is gliding through the night.
She’s giving off her own light
She is no longer in this room, she has given herself to
Her ecstasy (Amen!) ecstasy (Amen!)
Chorus
Theresa is dancing in the pale moonlight,
With a lover only she can see.
Sainthood is still so very far away,
But tonight she is in her ecstasy (Amen!) Ecstasy (Amen)
3) Sainthood’s a really hard way.
You just try livin’it day after day.
The only thing helping it go easy
Is all the opportunities
For Ecstasy

Heat, Then Rain

Heat, Then Rain M.Kirby
All day long the heat has been building.
Shimmering over the roads and hills.
Seeping into the darkest hollows and
Building until, until the clouds are full,
Building until the clouds are filled.
With Heat, then Rain , Heat, Then Rain,
Heat, then Rain, Why can’t we just cool down?
The heat covers everything. Everyone, everywhere.
The Heat is inescapable.
It gets in your skin and it gets in your affairs,
Gets into all of your affairs .
BR)
And As I watched you walk away,
Resigned to leaving it all alone.
Regret and heat hang in the air,
How could we just let it go?
Into Heat, then Rain etc
The clouds have had just about enough.
They need to release their flood.
Sheets of heat lightning flash out a warning,
Its Time to wash all of our sins into mud,
Turn all my sin into mud.
(Rap section)
When the night is waitin like the night before
And your fever is breaking, but it’s still in your pores.
In the fire and flood of the heart and the blood
They’re all washed away, covered in clay.
Your dreams and your longings and all your belongings
And the sins of the day, are now just a stain.
And all that remains of the pleasure and pain
is your heart and your name and the heat, then the rain.
In the heat , in the night, A spark can ignite.
Like a bonfire light, like you’re doing it right.
Like a star, like a sun, like the truth on your tongue .
Like a dream on the street coming true, turning sweet.
Where the girls go up and the town goes down and the heat’s like a wolf just hangin’ around.
And the town goes up and the girls go down and the boys, like the heat, are just hangin around in the heat …
Where the heat leads, where the sweat beads,
Where the clouds meet, where the thunder repeats,
Where the heart and the feet and the floor all meet
To dance off the fever and dance off the heat.

Little Black Suitcase M. Kirby
Down by the railway station, waiting on a train.
Got my whole life in a little black suitcase, settin’ in the rain.
I’m getting out of this stinkin’ town, and I won’t be back again.
You can count on a train to show up on time
To get me ‘round the bend! Oh you can Count on it!
You can count on it, you can count on it!!
2) Down by the crossroads I am trying to flag me a ride.
Got my guitar and my little black suitcase, settin’ by my side.
You can count on your suitcase and you can count on your guitar.
You can count on the boys in this stupid little town,
To break your foolish heart. Oh you can count on it ,
You can count on it, you can count on it.
I wonder if they’re thinking about me, and talkin’ about me an’ all.
While the boys are drinkin’ down at the VFW pool hall
Oh you can count on it! You can count on it!
You can count on it!!!
3) Down by that railway station, still waiting on that train.
Got my guitar and my little black suitcase, settin’ in the rain!!
I’m getting out of this stinkin’ town, I won’t be back again!!
You can count on it!

RUBY …. Steve Anderson
There's a lot of guys who think you’re something
But that other guy, He hurt you so bad
So your pulling yourself together at the quiet end of the bar
Come on now , Ruby, Ruby, oh Ruby, don’t you take it so hard,
Cause there’s a lot of guys who want to get to know you
But that other guy, he’s still on your mind
So you’re pushin’ down the Drambuie,
So the painful feelings don’t start
Come on now Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, don’t take it so hard
Don’t you take it so hard,
I don’t think you’re really trying
He’s not worth all of that crying
Come on Ruby yeah Come on Ru –by

WHITE RABBIT- Grace Slick
One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small
and the ones that mother gives you don't do anything at all
go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing rabbits and you know you're going to fall
Tell'em a hooka smoking caterpillar has given you the cord
Call Alice when she was just small
When men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go
and you just had some kind of mushroom and your mind is movinslow
go ask Alice, I think she'll know
When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
and the white knight is talking backwards
and the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the Doormouse said
Feed your head! Feed your head!

Year Of The Phoenix

2009 –The Year Of The Phoenix M. Kirby
Two thousand, nine was the year of the Phoenix.
My whole life burned to the ground.
It took some time to crawl out of the ashes,
And make it to safer ground.
Oh and it burned, how it burned, I watched it all burn down.
It Burned and it burned, ‘Till it was ashes on the ground.
2) Two thousand, nine was the year of the Phoenix.
I died and came back to life.
I burned so hot, I was vulcanized,
Reduced to Iron and Light.
Oh, and it burned, how it burned. I let it all burn down.
Burn, baby, burn! ‘Till its just ashes on the ground
3) So now it’s time for the first flight of the Phoenix
The fledgling’s wings are unfurled
It’s time to test the wingspan and power
And fly out into the world
Oh, Fly! Baby, fly! Let’s see how high you can go
Fly baby! fly! Just leave the ashes down below
Just leave the ashes (3x)
