HOLY WATER (inspirational lyrics by Philip Rudell)
©by Joe Jaunty
I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Bob"
He always drove me crazy - he was such a fuckin´knob!
His hobby was to put flyer´s up - tellin´folks; "he´s got me beat!"
that he mowed his lawn much quicker than me -
(Yeah)- it was always green..
CHORUS:
"I´m covered with Holy Water
(I´m) carrying Holy Water
(I) shower in Holy Water
My water is wetter than yours..." (rep)
I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Spence"
He was always measuring things - in particular my fence!
On my way to Town sometimes - on my VW Trike
He tried so hard that he almost died
overtake me on his bike...
CHORUS:
(He was) covered with Holy Water
Carrying Holy Water
He showered in Holy Water
"My water is wetter than yours..."(rep)
I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Luke"
He swore his dog was better than mine
(That guy made me puke!)
"My mutt can bark much louder than yours - look at him fetch that stick!"
Well, I dropped him like a sack of spuds - with a well placed Karate-kick!
CHORUS:
He was covered with Holy Water
Carrying Holy Water
Showered in Holy Water
"My water is wetter than Yours!" (rep)
I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Kurt"
he was always playing with his hose - like God´s almighty-squirt!
He claimed that he had better land
(and) that his veggies grew mighty tall!
Spraying down his words and prayed -
like I could care at all...
CHORUS:
Covered with Holy Water
Carrying Holy Water
Showered in Holy Water
"My water is wetter than Yours!" (rep)
I once had a neighbour - we can call him whatever U want...
always trying to do better than me - what´s the matter with some guys...?
CHORUS:
Are they covered with Holy Water?
Carrying Holy Water?
Do they shower in Holy Water?
"My water is wetter than Yours!" (rep)

SNAP-CRACKLE ´n´POP!
/Now - listen up - I´m gonna´tell you some stuff:/
Little Korean Lady, standing tall - she´s 4´5"
she owns a shop at the corner of Madison and 5
Some Afro-Americans bothers her
well, they called her a "whore"...(yeah)
Little Korean Lady got a Little League Baseball Bat
she´s got it - stored...
/No wait - there´s more:/
Now Stan is a man with a plan
he´s got it ALL figured out!
The man with a plan (his name is Stan)
gonna´spill his guts-that´s right!
Walk into that office - tell his Boss off!
(Stan is really Hard Core...)...yeah!
and His plan would have worked 100 percent
if his Boss hadn´t locked that door...
(SNAP!)
Snap, Crackle ´n´ Pop
Snap, Crackle ´n´Pop
She´s gonna´wave that little league baseballbat ´til they drop
but Stan who´s got stuff to say
has to bottle it up...
/and continue:/
Joe got no friends -seeking revenge
- even out the score (he´s got voices in his head)
Climbing high in the sky on a watery tower
with an M-24 (voices!)
They all would have been dead (just a minute before)
/you know/
now they all being rescued due to Joe´s vertigo...
(SNAP!)
Mona got tired of playing house
with a two-timing son-of-a-bitch
for the umpteenth time- nothin´but tears
a seven-year-itch! /FUCK HIM!/
Mona´s got a brand new car
with a gas pedal
(she´s got it floored!) - yeah!
Now Harry, Dick and Tommy - look out!
Here comes Mona - watch her go!
___
Snap, crackle ´n´Pop
Snap, crackle ´n´Pop
if you got no friends
Climb the tower and watch them drop!
Or put your SUV into "drive"
if you had enough...
...cuz nuff is enough...
Now - Jerry´s got a gambling problem
he´s gambling with his life
The chips are down
and he´s staring them - in the face - right?
Jerry is a nice guy
just a little disturbed /you know/
and The Bomb he´s hiding under his jacket
isn´t quite fool-proof as well....
Snap, crackle ´n´Pop
Snap, crackle ´n´Pop
Let´s blow it all up when your number is up!
Let´s go out with a Big-Bang!!
when you had enough! (rep)
...cuz nuff is enough...

"ME!"

"ME" by Joe Jaunty
There´s a rumour on the street
(I figure it is all about ME!)
Someone talking over my head
(try to knock ME off my feet)
Saw a grey old lady
standing by the bus stop
grinning wide - showing off her teeth!
I´m pretty sure it was ME she smiled about
yeah - it was all about ME!
ME - It´s all about me!
Some kid´s buying candy
at the close-by-corner-store
got ME convinced, they were spreading out
just to even out the score!
I could tell by their eyes that sugar
wasn´t all on them minds
They were out to get ME
cuz - I´m a One-Of-A-Kind!
ME - It´s all about me!
Those worker´s planned ahead
I´m pretty sure, digging up that street
whispering behind my back
talking all kinds of SHIT about ME!
Dressed up in those reflecting vests
just to annoy - ME!
I´m pretty certain, they all laugh about it
when they go home and drink their tea
ME - It´s all about ME!
The doctor´s say - I´ll be fine
just as long - I go out and about
get some exercise - walk all over The Town!
But I can hear they whisper
(I can hear them in my sleep)
They want to get rid off ME
(cuz it is all about ME!)
ME - It´s all about ME!
I can hear them all
talk about ME....

OR SO THEY SAY...
-by Joe Jaunty
Got a ticket-runnin-late
blocked at the gate
I guess I gotta´turn around?
It was a Cul (Cool)-de-sac
but my car got jacked
by some guys who just fooled around
I gave them my mind-replied in kind
got bumps to prove it allright!
Just spit it out - after rain comes shine
Every cloud´s got a silver-lining...
Or so they say..
Or so they say!
Think I need a beer
to dry my tears
A "Buddy" can help me hide!
But my Buddie´s warm
like a whorn-out whore
swing the next silver lining!
Gotta´pay the bills-turn on the light
the button doesn´t "play" at all!
After rain comes shine - it will be fine
every cloud´s got a Silver-lining!
Or so they say..
Or so they say!
My head´s a Jungle - in the jungle lives Lions
those critters are getting Nasty!
Living on Dole - like a mole-in-a-hole
my life is a Chaplin-slapstick!
I can tell U folks where to stick it all
I just about had enough!
After rain comes shine
swallow that PIE!
Every cloud´s got a Silver-lining...
Or so they say..
Or so they say!
My Hat is a Cat but the Cat got a rat
and the shoe is on the other foot!
My socks don´t match - but the Cat got a Rat
and my Cat´s got a dandy hood!
I´m in the middle-between
the King and The Queen
jump on those balls!
After rain comes shine-and that´s allright!
Every cloud´s got a Silver-lining!
Or so they say..
Or so they say!

DISCREPANCY
03:15
|
|||
|
Wish I could be any higher
I am somewhat out of place
got wizzlin´feet, stumblin´in the clouds
With my mind set on horizons
in an alley tight and vage
my coat is on - but I shiver all the same
CHORUS:
Have no fear - it´s only water
Have no fear - it´s only land
It doesn´t even matter which way
Look them straight in eyes of envy
let them glance behind them blinds
Discrepancy-
"they´ll" never understand!
------
Is there anyone who wonder -
why our thoughts are not the same?
Who decides - what goes - anyway?
With my mind set on the right thing
at least - that´s how I wing
I guess it all - depends...
CHORUS:
Have no fear - it´s only water!
Have no fear - it´s only land!
keep walking hand in hand with disdain!
Look them straight in eyes of empty
"they" will never understand!
Discrepancy will always be my way...
------
I hope that I will never
be the same
as "them"

Humans say that I am colorblind
(but) if they could see what I have seen sometimes...
Chain me up and "trouble" goes away
Tie me down and tell me to; "stay"
Howaaah!
Let me in on what You think is wrong?
Out here in the shadows I feel numb
Maybe You sometimes make mistakes?
Does someone tie You up - this way?
Howling at the moon
Can You feel it too?
Screaming at the sky
it´s a cold, cold night
Just a stupid hound
(You tell me so)
Howling at the moon
is all I do...
I´m stuck!
Howaaah!
If I snap the chain, make my escape
Will you track me down, find me someday?
Rope me in - maybe bring a gun
I will run so far, run....run, run....
Howling at the moon
Can You feel it too?
Screaming at the sky
in the cold, cold night
Just a stupid dog
(let´s just tell me so...)
Howling at the moon
is all I do...
cuz I´m stuck...
Howling at the moon
can You feel it too?

SHOOT ME DOWN...
03:16
|
|||
|
(by Joe)
You said that I could be the one
if I grew a heart
I tried so hard to be someone that counts
please, don´t shoot me down
please, don´t shoot me down
All the words spoken - in anger - in fear
I guess I regret the one´s
that You choose to hear...
please, don´t shoot me down
please, don´t shoot me down
You said that I could be just like
"Him" before
If I just put an effort to it
tried some more...
please, don´t shoot me down
please, don´t shoot me down
You said - that I could be the one
but I´m not like that - at all...
Shoot me down - Shoot me down
Shoot me down...
I´m not, like that - at all...

YOU SEE ME STRONG (lyrics by Carrol Murphy)
Copyright© 2014. Carrol Murphy. All rights reserved.
---
When it's dark, all alone, hear my demons, call me home,
reach for heaven, find the stairs, one more cut, nearly there
If I jump, can I fly? to another world, no more lies,
just to know, that I fit in, not to judge me, for my skin.
CHORUS
You see me strong, you pass me by,
miss the sadness, in my eyes,
you see me strong.... you see me strong....I don't belong...
---------
If I swim, just sink down, will the pain finally drown?
I'm not as perfect, as you see, further go, than what you need.
Swallow it all, then I can sleep, looks and shape are all skin deep,
you want it all, like a prize, I never win with fashion lies.
CHORUS
You see me strong, you pass me by,
miss the sadness, in my eyes,
you see me strong.... you see me strong....I don't belong...
Don't want to end, I have no choice, don't want to end, I have no voice
/you don't see me... you don't see me..../

BRING ME SAFE /to Alf/
Joe Jaunty (music & lyrics)
/from my closet/
Joe - remember all the fun?
What we did to that yellow car
-we surely had some fun...
Joe - so glad to see you, my friend
It´s been awhile - but I´ve been thinkin´
-time and again
It´s good to have friends...
Got my "Indian" tuned and shined
ready to ride
Would you drop by my place tonight?
We can hear it once again...
Bring me home
Bring me back
Bring me safe tonight
I´ll see you some other day
some other time
some other place
Bring me home
Bring me back
Bring me into the light
Do you think
He - will bring me safe?
Joe- "they" got no vains to put it in
to kill the pain - to feel good again
but "they" treat me well...
Joe - I just wish that we could talk
I know you don´t believe in anything
I just want to share my thoughts...
I play your music really loud
when no one´s around...
Do you think there is a God?
and that He - will lead me right?
Bring me home
Bring me back
Bring me safe tonight
I´ll see you some other day
some other time
some other place
Bring me home
Bring me back
Bring me into the light
Do you think
He will bring me safe?
/rep/

Bring - bring me safe...

SKIN by Joe Jaunty
Someone said - I don´t know who "you never become more than you"
"you can try to peel away the layers - then don´t be afraid what you unveil"
- "you may not like what you unveil..."
---------
Try a prayer, maybe two - find your comfort in them too...
Seek a place to crawl and hide - or shout it out - what you feel inside
it´s only you - there inside
-----------
It´s raining deep - it´s raining wet
although I wear my shades - I can see my skin
It´s raining hard - it´s raining hot - sometimes I feel like something else
like I´m walking in - someone elses´s skin...
----------
Tell me a story - tell me Two - tell me please, what to do
cuz I really haven´t found my place - does everybody else
have a place to feel safe?
shall I walk another way?
-----------
It´s raining deep - it´s raining wet
although I wear my shades - I can see my skin
It´s raining hard - it´s raining hot - sometimes I feel like something else
like I´m walkin´ in - someone elses skin...
