Aloha, Honolulu, here I come with some friends of mine
Half of them the Hawaiian kind
The other half just need a little sunshine
On the isle of Oahu, the day is just begun
Relax is number one
"Don't rush me haole, there's plenty of sun"
"Did you bring the lotion? You know

Wrap around me and curl, you big beautiful spoon
The thought of your touch and smell just makes me swoon
When you lay me down, my heart is still as a pond
Together like two spoons until dawn.
Sometimes I live in the past, I know that it's true
I'm romantic to melancholy, you

Take a trip 'round this great big world
There are many things that I've never seen,
many places that I've never been but I'd like to.
Global Village, under one sun,
that means one for all and all for one.
This great big world is for everyone.
India, Africa, Canada, and Th

A lifetime of accomplishments of which the dirt knows none,
only in death can one truly return
Return the carrots, the apples and potatoes,
The chickens, the cows, the fish and tomatoes.
In one glorious swoop, let the deed be done
and bury me deep so that I can be one...

My ghost is everywhere here
It hangs on every tree
Lingering with every flower and leaf,
smell of scent and sight and sound
These are calling cards from another time
Familiar days and forgotten phases,
like water trickle down down down
Time is an ocean, and I'm set to

I know you're bitter, but why?
Don't you know that two wrongs don't make a right?
It's not that simple
But everybody's trying to figure it out
I feel so detached today, I don't konw
It's not that simple, It's not that simple
It's all that we can do to try and work it on o

Relentlessly climbing and conquering and swallowing
fresh pain
Melting reemerging and rising up clean
in the pouring rain
Rise up clean in the pouring rain, only to drop down
and decay again
Muscle and sweat and blood and bones
feel good, feel strong!
Don't ask wh

Fall upon me in my quiet pain
fall upon me, again and again
Across wide open fields
and grass down of green
I'm awake but my head is in the air
Wide awake, take me walking into the cold cold air.
Fall upon me like a hundred flowers
Fall upon me like the masseuse of ho

I'm falling, but its OK
Never know just where I'll land
No sense to force plans, I'm flying.
I'm walking, feel my hands and my legs,
They feel good to be moving, side to side
sway, sway, I'm gliding.

I could walk away, I could let this fly
go back home and start again -- Fruitless
I have faith in how things seem to start again,
that tale of your one big chance is a lie, told by consumed men.
And I push, and I push to not give in
I don't recall a place that I would call th

Robin's in the metaphysical section
She's got "Living with the Dreaming Body"
She's sprawled out along the carpet floor
She says my work is like eating cold oatmeal
yesterday's oatmeal, day after day
She says my work is like eating cold oatmeal
day after day, and she's ri

Before your lights quite fail
And you fall spinning singing from the same song
Pass your hand before me
Palm shining, light streaming
Speak to me your lips touch
Crackle light water spilling
tumbling down
Sing to me lull softly call quiver
Dream to me like a flame

Praise The Lord
by Poi Dog Pondering
Wishing Like A Mountain and Thinking Like the Sea
Columbia CK 45403 1990
"Praise the Lord," he said to me.
And he seemed quite happy,
He seemed quite at ease.
And I said "Yeah."
Cause I was just down at the sea
And it occur

You are a butterfly and my eyes are needles
The cold has your breast and my hand is on fire
You resting and reposing
My veins are pulsing
And nothing can cure me, but your pulling touch
I'll stretch you out, and lay alongside you
Run my hands along, devour and divide you.

Sometimes I think I should
Sometimes I think I oughta
If I could, you know I would
Talk to you in a minute,
call you on the telephone
I saw a picture of you and it took me through
so many visions of you I couldn't stand it
but I sat it through.
Another day and it'

Oh the days of wine and roses and the rubbing of noses
Bare feet, new sprouts, and garden hoses.
Skipping stones, while skipping home...
"Look at that tree, it's got a brand new leaf!"
Candle light, candle light -- for no reason
Eating fresh fruit when it's in season.

Sugarbush Cushman lived by the Ruud pond
Way up north in Barre Vermont
Way up high where the maple trees grow,
she says "I'm from Vermont and I loves the snow."
In her floppy french cap, seated beneath the maple tree,
drinking down the sap, not a care in the world
cause i

Somehow I find myself far out of line
from the ones I had drawn
Wasn't the best of paths, you could attest to that,
but I'm keeping on.
Would our paths cross if every great loss
had turned out our gain?
Would our paths cross if the pain it had cost us
was paid in vain

(A Love Letter to Jonathan Richman)
Well the Ancient Egyptians, and the other Africans
The Mayans, the Incas, and all the Polynesians.
All around the world, a long long time ago,
People would walk, where ever they had to go.
They didn't have car keys, and they didn't have roa
