up at the crack of dawn

 I'm up at dawn...at the crack of dawn. I been working like a regular dog. to keep my woman and the lights and the water and the phone turned on. I been saying yes sir all day at work. I been saying yes mam at home. I been storing up fuck you's keeping them under my tongue. I need a little time off for bad behavior.

Til I See You Again

 

"Till I See You Again"  - Mary Gauthier

May eternity hold you in the hollow of her hand
May a soft wind enfold you as you travel distant lands
May the moon and stars delight you as the daylight dims
Till the morning sun warms your face, till I see you again

May you lay down your struggle beneath a silver sky
May a summer rain inside your dreams sing a lullaby
May there be no more struggle, no more pain
May you sleep inside the stillness of the night till I see you again

May you never be a stranger, may you never feel alone
May you reunite with family and friends may they walk you home
May love embrace you in a dance that never ends
May you rest in gentle arms till I see you again
May you rest in gentle arms till I see you again

Uncle Lloyd

 I thought of thirty years of Rita

Standing sternly by his side
All the years of hanging in there
And all the emptiness inside

And I thought of how their children
Have children of their own
And how a man at fifty-seven
Winds up living so alone

Darrell Scott- Uncle Lloyd

Don't Be Scared

 There's a life worth living and it's interesting

There's a calm that's real somewhere
There's a jungle stream and band that's playing
There's a tune worth whistling to
Don't be scared

Don't be scared- Daniel Johnston

Going Home

 He will speak these words of wisdom

Like a sage, a man of vision
Though he knows he’s really nothing
But the brief elaboration of a tune

Going Home- Leonard Cohen

Funplex

I'm a pleasure seeker,

shoppin' for a new distraction

I'm a pleasure seeker,

lookin' for some platinum action

I'm a pleasure seeker,

movin' to the Muzak®

I'm a pleasure seeker,

lookin' for the real thing

Chandalabra's in a wonderbra

Dress Barn runway,

a real drawFaster pussycat, thrill, thrill

I'm at the mall on a diet pill

Funplex by the B-52's

Do you remember?

Do you remember when I was a baby

Did I cry, did I cry

I only remember the days I was laughing

When you sang me sweet lullabies

When you sand me sweet bye and bye

"Mother" by Kasey Chambers
