FUNERAL BLUES
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone
Silence the piano and with a muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, Let the mourners come
Let aeroplanes circle, moaning over head
Scribbling on the sky the message: He Is Dead
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves
Let the traffic policeman wear black cotton gloves
He was my North, My South, My East and West
My working week, My sunday rest
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song
I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong
The stars are not wanted now, Put out everyone
Pack up the moon and Dismantle the sun
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood
For nothing now can ever come to any good WHEN I SAW YOU...
I WAS AFRAID TO TALK TO YOU...
WHEN I TALKED TO YOU...
I WAS AFRAID TO HOLD YOU...
WHEN I HELD YOU...
I WAS AFRAID TO LOVE YOU...
NOW THAT I LOVE YOU ....
I'M AFRAID TO LOSE YOU...
YESTERDAY IS HISTORY...
TOMORROW IS A MYSTERY...
AND TODAY IS A GIFT...
THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED A PRESENT...
SOMETIMES LOVE HURTS...
BUT IF IT DOESN'T HURT...
THEN IT ISN'T LOVE...
HOLD ON TO THE PERSON YOU LOVE...
BEFORE THEY SLIP AWAY...
OR ELSE YOU CAN NEVER GET THEM BACK...
I WAS BORN WHEN YOU KISSED ME...
AND I DIED WHEN YOU LEFT ME...
BUT I LIVED FOR THE TWO MONTHS YOU LOVED ME...
UNTIL THERE WAS YOU,
I CRIED MY SELF TO SLEEP...
WHILE I HAD YOU,
I FELL ASLEEP WITH A GENTLE SMILE ON MY FACE...
BEFORE I LOST YOU,I WORRIED MY SELF TO SLEEP...
NOW THAT I KNOW YOU ARE GONE,
I SIT UP AT NIGHT, WAITING FOR YOU TO COME BACK... |  | | |
This is in memory of The Shooting in Littleton, Colorado of April 21 1999. May they Rest In Peace.
MUMMY
Mummy, Johnny brought a gun to school,
He told his friend that it was cool
And when he pulled the trigger back
It shot with a great crack.
Mummy, I was a good girl,
I did what I was told.
I got straight A's,
I even got the gold!
But mummy, when I went to school that day,
I never said goodbye
I'm sorry, Mummy, I had to go,
But Mummy, please dont cry
When Johnny shot the gun,
He hit me and another
And all because Johnny
Got the gun from his older brother
Mummy, please tell Daddy
That I love him very much
And please tell Chris my Boyfriend
That it wasnt just a crush
And tell my little sister
That she is the only now
And tell my dear sweet Grandmother
I'll be waiting for her now
And tell my wonderful friends
That they always were the best
Mummy, I'm not the first
I'm no better than the rest
Mummy, tell my teacher's
That I wont show up for class
And never to forget this
And please dont let it pass
Mummy, why'd it have to be me?
No one deserves this
Mummy warn the others
Mummy, I left without a kiss
And, Mummy tell, the doctors
I know they really tried
I think I even saw a doctor
Trying not to cry
Mummy, I'm slowly dying
With a bullet in my chest
But, Mummy please remember
I'm in heaven with the rest
Mummy, I ran as fast as I could
When I heard that great big crack
Mummy, listen if you would
I'm never coming back
I wanted to go to college
I wanted to try things that were new
I guess I'm not going with daddy
On that trip to the new zoo
I wanted to get married
I wanted to have a kid
I want to be an actress
Mummy, I wanted to live
But, mummy I must go now
The time is getting late
Mummy tell my boyfirnd
I'm sorry but I had to cancel our date
I love you mummy
I always have
I'll know you know its true
And mummy, all I wanted to say is
Mummy, I love you Never say I love you
If you dont really care
Never talk about feelings
If they aren't really there
Never hold me hand
If you're going to break my heart
Never say you're going to
If you dont plan to start
Never look into my eyes
If all you do is lie
Never say hello
If you really mean goodbye
If you really mean forever
Then promise me you'll try
Never say forever
Cos forever makes me cry | | | |

Eternal Life
I am here
Smiling, enclosed and warm
But mummy is crying
I listen
Afraid of haunting voices
And mummy protects me
I see
Shadows of my father
But mummy is listening
I touch
A woman with ambition
Mummy must choose
I smell
The smoke of persuasion
Mummy is burning
I taste
The poison of life
Mummy is helpless
My voice is still here
The world ruins but
Mummy will always hear my cries. |

TOUCH ME
Touch me
I hear my voice say
Your hands glide over my skin and my body
Barely touching
Skimming the milky surface
Shudders escape my lips, made puffy from kissing
At teh pleasure you unleash
I arch my nimble body so we fit together
And become one by the firelight
Ymouth grazes my navel
Your tongue licking it ever so slightly
And my hands explore your muscular chest
The sensations that assault me are enough to shatter my senses
And I feel a warmth in my heart
As you slide gently inside me
You become a drug in my body, heart and soul
Then a solitary tear runs gently down my rosy cheek
When we are transcended past this time and place
And we come one with the heaven's and stars THE END
When I was One
I had just begun
When I was Two
I was nearly new
When I was Three
I was hardly me
When I was four
I was not much more
When I was Five
I was just alive
But now I am Six
I'm as clever as clever
So I think I'll be six no for ever and ever US TWO
Wherever I am, there's always Pooh
There's always Pooh and me
Whatever I do, he wants to do
"Where are you going today?" says Pooh,
"Well thats very odd, 'cos I was too. Lets go together,"
Says Pooh says he.
"Lets go together," says Pooh
"What's twice eleven?" I said to Pooh
("Twice what?" said Pooh to me.)
"I think it ought to be twenty two."
"Just what I think myself." Said Pooh
"It wasn't an easy sum to do, But thats what it,"
Said Pooh, said he
"Thats what it is." Said Pooh
S, wherever I am, there's always Pooh
There's always Pooh and me
"What would I do?" I said to Pooh
"If it wasnt for you," and Pooh said, "True,"
"It isnt much fun for one, but Two can stick together," says Pooh, says he
"Thats how it is," says Pooh. |
