My Music

A song in a minute

Here is a song I wrote in a minute
a man died and they said I did it
his wife accused and the judge just listened
and they locked me up inside for good

After 8 years they gave me a job
sorting mail with a fella named bob
so I was out of my tiny cell
and it was then I heard my bell

So, I pretended to be asleep
and the key I snatched before
without any noise opened up the door
and I was out on the corridor

After a minute I heard a voice
it was a surprise party for the wife’s boss
so, I pretended to be the waiter
and postponed my plan for later

In the morning I was all wasted
I found myself in a shack in Hawaii
with the boss’s wife under the clear blue sky
I scratched my head and wanted to fly

We got married cause I couldn’t stand the tears
the boss’s wife got bigger with each year
but she did cook for me each day
and she was loyal, and had no bills to pay

At 71 (past midnight), she began flying
so cold, didn’t breath, like she was dying
I went outside to get some help
but it was Saturday and everyone were in bed

So I called up the captain and said boss
you gotta help me, and do the most
the boss laughed and I knew why
she was never his wife, and me wasn’t I

I must have been an experiment
of the all mighty god to test my spirit
I was a good husband and a good dad
and my kids are now in NY, Mexico and Baghdad

One opened a beer factory on the cypress hill
the other had a limo service and a Spanish grill
the third is a doctor named bill
but they all loved me, and my late wife surreal

And now I’m old and almost in heaven
I’m nearly dead cause I’m 97
I am talking to god each day now
and he replies me (I don’t know how)

Yesterday, an angel woke me up
I rubbed my eyes and he said hey pop
lets get moving so we won’t be late
there’s a good movie in heaven, don’t hesitate

I went flying up to the sky
I saw some friends as they passed me by
I got a good seat near a cloud
and a medal that made me so proud

Now my body is decomposing
and all is left are the bones
but my soul is flying out there
its first time in my life that I’m alone

I went to places that I never knew
I saw things that I thought weren’t true
I helped a poor girl from Katmandu
and a tribe of cannibals with a flue

But what I like the most of all
is seating on a cloud away from it all
and there I see you from time to time
and remember how you were mine

It all started as a joke, and it got me here
I really wanted to write, so I wont drop a tear
I should really get going, my time is through
I got my TV and some work to do.

A love song

Let me take you to the nuclear reactor
in the heavy water we will swim
take off our cloths and feel lighter
and slowly get closer to one another

let me take you to the nuclear reactor
don’t mind what everyone else says
it will be our own decision
and we will be safe from the pouring acid rain

let me kiss you under the waters
let me take you far away
let me sweep you to an adventure
I will always keep you safe

So let me take you to the nuclear reactor
don’t mind what everyone else has to say.

A poem for a rock

bunch of rocks
in my garden
I picked them up
and put aside
stacked them high
as a mountain
