My Stupid Life  ©W & A(CD) Slater

I'm a rolling stone, and that'll never do
I'm not a stay at home, I've got aptitude
I've been cooped up, fed up,
Looked at like I've got something to hide
I've been wrung out, strung out,
lifted up and dropped at least a hundred times,

But I will not burn
Go belly up and blow the big concern
Yeah I will overcome,
My stupid life has always just begun.

I'm a wayward girl, not in a way that you might think,
This crazy world has nearly brought me to the brink,
'cause without fear I've come so near to knocking
on the devil's door,
And if I'm tempting fate, I might hesitate,
or maybe stay and beg for more,

But I will not burn
Go belly up and blow the big concern
Yeah I will overcome,
My stupid life has always just begun.


(Can't take away my) Dreamtime  ©W & A(CD) Slater

If I had wings, I guess I'd fly about,
And like a bird that sings, I would make that pretty sound,
You know the truth is that I've been going 'round
with my head up in the clouds and my two feet on the ground,
I think about the things that make my spirit soar
And I think about the many things that make my life a chore.
Do you ever get the feeling you could amount to something more
but you just couldn't wait another minute?

Can't take away my dreamtime

When I sit out in the sun under my lemon tree,
I begin to contemplate all the things that bring me ecstasy,
And sometimes a little wisdom comes drifting on a breeze,
And I get busy making plans in a world of make believe,
Imagining that everything's so cut and dry; I wonder why?

Can't take away my dreamtime

You can make me tow the line, demand I answer yes or no,
I can give you what you want with appropriate control,
'cause when all the world's a stage and I"m just acting out a role,
It really doesn't matter anyway.
I'm thinking 'bout the things that make my spirit soar,
Dismissing all the rest as one big crashing bore,
Can't let go of the feeling I can be something more,
And it's just around the corner every minute.

Can't take amay my dreamtime,
My dreamtime.


Over and Over  ©W & A(CD) Slater

Over and over, up and away
Fight for your money, your take home pay,
Got to see it to believe it, And not to be curt,
I'm only here for the money and now Ive got enough.

And I'm on my way, (Yeah) I'm on my way.
I'm on my way. I'm on my way.

Build little beaver, got to make it work,
Build a home on the river, made out of sticks and mud,
Somebodies want to catch you, I wouldn't even try,
You taught me how to live, and what I need to get by,

And I'm on my way, (Yeah) I'm on my way
I'm on my way, I'm on my way.

As I travel down the road to my place,
I think I might come back to see you some day.

Young foot soldier, uniform and a gun,
Learns to kill for his money, don't want to hurt anyone,
Got to see it to believe it and not to be curt,
You know the law of the jungle, is the way of the world.

Over and over (Repeat)


Suspicion  ©W & A(CD) Slater

Thought I heard you talking, about someone today,
And if I'm not mistaken, It's about to come my way.

Ooh, You've got me running and hiding,
Ooh, Suspicious little mind.

And I hear you coming, and you don't know I'm there,
Can my imagination, take me anywhere,
How come I feel so uneasy? How can it be this way?
Only a reputation, Only a pawn to be played.

Ooh, You've got me running and hiding,
Suspicious little mind,
Can't hide the world inside,
Suspicions in my life.
Suspicion.

Thought I heard you laughing, trying to behave,
Some of the best intentions are like a slap in the face.

Ooh, You've got me running and hiding,
Ooh, Suspicious little mind,
Ooh, Can't hide the world inside,
Ooh, Suspicions in my life,
Ooh, You got me aye aye aye aye,
Ooh, Suspicions all of the time,
Ooh, Can't hide the world inside,
Ooh, Suspicions in my life
Suspicion (Repeat)


Rene's Son  ©W & A(CD) Slater

Here is a tale about no ordinary boy,
Had a very active mind but not a lot of joy,
He was so plagued by impediments,
Just to hear him talk, made no sense.

Rene's son (Repeat)

All the girls would pass him by,
And all the boys would make him cry,
He had a heart as big as the world,
could never figure why they were so cruel.

Rene's son (Repeat)

One day feeling thoroughly miffed,
He set out to scale a trecherous cliff,
He'd get even by showing them all,
But he never did survive the fall.

Rene's son (Repeat)


Breakdown In Hollywood   ©W & A(CD) Slater

Breakdown in Hollywood, coming my way,
Breakdown in Hollywood, life in a haze,
Breakdown in Hollywood, coming ready or not,
Breakdown in Hollywood, like a spinning top,

I can't tell you that I'm not having fun,
And I never did believe whoever said 'It's all been done'
I saw you, you were looking very fine,
With your hands in your pockets, walking down the miracle mile.


Breakdown in Hollywood, coming my way,
Breakdown in Hollywood, wise up you say,
Breakdown in Hollywood, all the things you said,
Breakdown in Hollywood, running through my head,

Wild is to whiskey, like sipping is to wine,
And 'some day' is for dreaming, give me 'some day' every time
Wake up calls and traffic squalls add to my discontent,
I get a compromising feeling and work another day for rent,
And if time is money I guess money is time,
Seems the price I pay for freedom is taking up my whole life.


Breakdown in Hollywood, coming my way,
Breakdown in Hollywood, wise up you say,
Breakdown in Hollywood, coming ready or not,
Breakdown in Hollywood, like a spinning top,

Cry like a sunburnt child, wishing anything would stop the hurt,
Feeling so helpless and frustrated, kicked around like dirt,
Every day I'm losing it and every night I count the cost,
Now my hands are shaking and my heart is breaking,
Sometimes I feel so lost.

Breakdown in Hollywood, coming my way,
Breakdown in Hollywood, life in a haze,
Breakdown in Hollywood, down down I drop,
Breakdown in Hollywood, like a spinning top,

Breakdown in Hollywood (Repeat)


Holly Go   ©W & A(CD) Slater

Hey yea yea yea yeah!
I'm in love with a dream, and dream I do,
Every single night that I'm away from you,
I wake so full of longing for something I know,
could never never ever be between you and me,
Those feathery kisses, I feel your touch on my skin,
I see that look in your eyes that invites anyone who's willing in
And I lose control, your need is hypnotizing, I'm mother, sister,
brother, lover, and a partner in this midnight scene.

Remember Miss Holly Golightly,
Free as a bird escaped from it's cage
For her the stars would shine so ever brightly,
One hand on her heart and the other holding a suitcase.

I saw you one evening, you were all alone,
You leap-frogged over fire hydrants in your raincoat
You told me you missed me, I said come by anytime,
Then you tightrope walked on my balcony four stories high.
I yelled 'Why'd you do that', I guess I kind of freaked,
I held you close and kissed your lips,
I remember they were soft and sweet
And ah ah ah ah ah ah ah,
My reason had been shattered by exquisite lust.

Remember Miss Holly Golightly,
Free as a bird escaped from it's cage
For her the stars would shine so ever brightly,
One hand on her heart and the other holding a suitcase.

Like a kid in a candy shop, I gobbled it up,
The world was my oyster and I really couldn't get enough,
Pretty pretty people on the floor,
And you tap tap tap tapping at my door,
Tripping in a monsoon, we went out for tea,
Your passion turned to rage because of jealousy,
I still carry the scars cut by your spikes,
When you smashed your glass against your head,
It made me want to cry.

Remember Miss Holly Golightly,
Free as a bird, escaped from it's cage
For her the stars would shine so ever brightly,
One hand on her heart and the other holding a suitcase.


(It's My) Life and Times   ©W & A(CD) Slater

In the pit of my heart, In the pit of my soul,
Everywhere I look, Everywhere I go,
I feel a new beginning, another phase in my life,
And as I look back at the faces of people who touched me
with their eyes, once twice or a dozen times,
Reaching out like drifters, like lights in the darkness,
I feel that soon I'll be home.

Changes, changes in my life,
Make them, take them, don't think twice,
Need be, intensely sublime,
Hey now,It's my life and times.

I can feel it near, I can feel it whole,
Everywhere I look, every chance I took leading me home,
It's an easy feeling, and things that leave me cold,
They don't belong in here, no no no ,
Don't belong, don't belong deep in my heart anymore,
See an open door looking straight ahead down the open road,
And I feel that soon I'll be home.

Changes, changes in my life,
Make them, take them, don't think twice,
Need be, intensely sublime,
Hey now,It's my life and times.


Into The Light   ©D De Avalon (Reproduced by permission)

The moon glows, the day shows that you're on your path,
Taking in all that you see,
Shining, that radiant glow, Have you seen it all before?
Which way is your world spinning?
Stars in your eyes, stars in your eyes,
What world are you from?

The sun, penetrates so clearly,the water knows just where to go,
Give rise to the highs, melt into love, melt into love.
Stars in your eyes, into the light, forever.

Stars in your eyes, stars in your eyes,
What world are you from,
Into the light, Into the light,
Forever, forever, forever, forever.


Right Here and Now   ©W & A(CD) Slater

Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how
Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how

I feel it all around me, the winds of change,
If we don't shed our ignorance, we are to blame,
We put our heads together, we're in control,
There have been days of better weather,
We won't forget but carry on.
I'm gonna live every day like my last,
There's not a minute to waste,
Go for the beauty, simple pleasures in life,
Any negativity in me, I will erase.

Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how
Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how

I've got a sense memory that won't quit me 'till I die,
When I use my imagination, I start to fly,
I can have anything, my little heart desires,
Health, wealth , prosperity, I create with my mind,
I'm gonna live every day like my last,
There's not a minute to waste,
Go for the beauty, simple pleasures in life,
Any negativity in me, I will erase.

Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how
Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how
Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how
Right here and now, there's gonna be changes made and how
