In the beginning
Let there be light
But in the end
There was still light
In the middle
There were angels & dinosaurs,
and they were getting it on
with their star wars.
[Chorus through twice]
And so what?
If you can name comets
With your trash can eyes
You know I'm used to it,
and that's no big suprise
I follow you everywhere
like chasing my tail,
and If this is heaven
I'd hate to see hell.
But I would,
all for you
Yes I would, if I could,
all for you.
The hand of god
The strong arm of time
It's an endless black
It's a void sublime
A jumbled mass swirling fast
That we call stars
but take another look,
and hope you'll find...
Angels & dinosaurs
I hope you'll find...
Angels & dinosaurs
You'll find...
Angels turned dinosaurs.
[Chorus twice, then option back to the first verse]
And so what?
If you can name comets
With your trash can eyes
You know I'm used to it,
and that's no big suprise
I follow you everywhere
like chasing my tail,
and If this is heaven
I'd hate to see hell.
But I would,
all for you
Yes I would, if I could,
all for you.
But if you take another look
over your shoulder you'll find...
Angels & dinosaurs
You'll find...
Angels & dinosaurs
You'll find...
Angels & dinosaurs.

Oh my! That's just the cutest picture! How absolutely adorable! You look like a great father and your baby looks so comfortable. How precious! And I read your lyrics and I think that they sound really great! I could even hear a pacing as I read this and everything! I don't know what the trash can eyes are supposed to mean though. That part confused me. It all looks great! You did a good job!

Now see, I'm suppose to be studying for a mock trial tomorrow, and here I am am reading this def shit that you have posted. I love lyricists. you have just made me have to bookmark this and come back later to read it, and go to your website and listen to some of your tunes while I study. I have to defend a prick that I know is fucking guilty of rape. This shit is too real. Give me music to make it easier to study this MF. Thanks for these lyrics that make my plight lighter. Good work. Glad to have come to your pages.

this is freaking awesome! i really liked it. you have a lot of talant. writing songs is kind of hard for me but i think i have written a decent few. this is REALLY awesome though.
i especially loved these lines:
"The hand of god
The strong arm of time
It's an endless black
It's a void sublime"
really awesome job there...
Peace and Love,
XOXO SammiJo -
Yes, I care, I'd love to tell you how to get the sound going in your pc doll, just let me know when, and I'll run you through it okay, and I'f you'd like, I can arrange to send you a disc or two.
-
Couldn't help it, I was about to go to bed until I saw this featured and the title drew me in. I like thchorus although sometimes I am sure you are misunderstood in your lyrics. I will not lie and say I understand, but I am struck by theses lyrics;
"But I would if I could
all for you
Yes, I would If I could
all for you"
The all says it all.
What a contrast "angels and dinasours" I wonder if it is widely known that there are fallen angels that deceive many into thinking they are angels of light? Don't know and don't care, just know what I know. The frickin' sound is messed up on my PC. I would sure like to hear the tunes to some of your songs. How do I fix sound. do I need a disk,do you even care. I wish someone would help me fix the damn sound. I need a PC Doc. I love your work and this is no different. Keep doin' it and doin'it and doin' it well... -
You're adorable thank you.
-
This is a great song. I can just hear my son's band doing this one! Well done, poet... or should I say, songwriter? Me thinks thee a songwriter extraordinaire. Albeit, I have to admit,I didn't quite get the drift of its message, especially the mention of God in what otherwise seems a fantasy of sorts. But, then, I am 60yo... so go figure. Well done! LOL! ~~BonnieQ

interesting write here, i like the medium here between dark and light, angels an ddinosaurs together, and in the end the lizards were king, reminds me of jim morrison, triumph over the angels of the time to him, hmm interesting, i liked this write
fj - -
oh. i love the design you chose for this. good plans for this one. yes.
-
What? Jenny's been here before me again -- but that's okay - I use her black magic for inspiration to spark the brain's ignition.
Paint it black, add some glitter stars and we'll hang dinosaurs with wings lovingly cut from magazines against the ageless grace of heavenly angels. I shall kneel and pray upon this alter of false sins - comets that flash in the night and know true salvation in indeed held within the grasp of god and dinosaurs and angels. The holy ghost spins in the pinwheeled eyes of madness and the bubbling voice of the messenger reaches even my insensitive ears.
Third stanza rocks. I'm in tune. -
all I can think of is trash can eyes...... sold my soul for less..... somewhere between the angels and dinosours.....
thinking..... showed you the wrong poem to read.....new means new.... but oh well...
-
Would be interested in hearing it. I like the reference to self as god, or at least that's how I read it, and bits of this reminded me of "What Dreams May Come" how he was willing to go through hell to save someone he cared for, in the end saving himself as well. Hmm maybe it's valentine's day, but that was an especially mushy take on this. Anyway, I like the lyrics, very original, nothing cliched.
-
angels and dinosaurs...
well i wouldn't have thought of that combination!
Nyx... -
nice
-
It sort of sounds like a smooth rocky number.. or even John Martyn.. a bit gravely and rich with honeyed words.. Lost places in time..
