(Here Comes That) Heat Wave

Ev'ryone is in the sun and having fun
Dance and sing and party all day all night long
Tomorrow's gonna get up to a hundred and one (Tum tee tum-tum)
As a rule we hit the pool
But the beach ain't out of reach
Anyway girl you look so fine having a good time
And Santa Claus is swimming cuz the North Pole can't be saved

Cuz it's heat wave, yeah a heat wave
C'mon heat wave, here comes that heat wave, look out!
Here comes that heat wave, hey a heat wave
Yeah it's a heat wave oh yeah

Ev'ry fool is out of school and stayin' cool
No one's gonna work today whatcha gonna do
Tomorrow's gonna get up to a hundred and two (Shoo-be do doo)
Think I'll have an ice cold drink
Not too far hit the bar
Anyway girl you look so good that I know we could
And Santa Claus is drinking cuz the North Pole can't be saved

Cuz it's heat wave, oh yeah a heat wave
C'mon it's a heat wave, here comes that heat wave, look out!
Here comes that heat wave, yeah a heat wave
Hey a heat wave yeah yeah

You and me time to party feelin' free
Oceans rising endless summer come to be
Tomorrow's gonna get up to a hundred and three (Shoo-be do bee)
And Santa Claus is swimming the North Pole can't be saved

Cuz it's heat wave, oh yeah a heat wave
C'mon it's a heat wave, here comes that heat wave, look out!
Here comes that heat wave, yeah a heat wave
Hey a heat wave yeah yeah

Baby baby ...
I feel the ice is slowly melting ...
Sometimes I feel I want to run away ...
You're love is like a heat wave ...
Yeah!

(River Flows Like) Fine Red Wine

I love you woman
We’ve been together for a long time
We’ve had our ups and down
River flows like fine red wine

Woo-hoo!

I remember the night we met
Sharing tequila and partying on
Well times they sure have changed
I believe the best is still to come

The River!
Wheel turning round and round

I remember the day we wed
The look in your eyes just said it all
I knew you love me too
You are so beautiful

Big wheel keep on moving along

I love you woman
River flows like fine red wine
We’ll have our ups and down
Let’s be together for a long time

Tequila!
Let’s go get Mexican food

River flows like fine red wine

Who Can Fool Me?

You can’t fool me
This time won’t be same
I see you play your game
I’ve heard it all before
This time I’m keeping score and
You can give me the runaround but

You can’t fool me
You’re pretty good at lying
I’ll give you points for trying
This time my mind’s made up
It’s rain in a paper cup and
You can try to steal my sound but

You can’t fool me
Although you make rules
But still I know what’s true
Yeah I’ve been there and back
This time I’m keeping track
You can try to lead me on but

You can’t fool me
Although you’re so much stronger
You’ve been around much longer
You want to push me ‘round
I’m gonna stand my ground and
You can try to knock me down but

You can’t fool me
And now you’re playing cupid
You know I’m not that stupid
Yeah I can see right thru
I know what I have to do and
You can try to make me dance but

You can’t fool me
I don’t buy your fantasy
Leave me alone already
You fooled me once before
I’m hungry for some more and
I might even take that chance but

You can’t fool me
No, you can’t fool me
Only I can fool myself
Said I can fool myself
You can’t fool and honest man and
You can’t fool me

The Nine

The nine rode forth from the black gate
Once they were kings of men who above all else desire power
The quest now stands on the edge of a knife
Stray just a little and it will fail
The fellowship is breaking; it has already begun


-- John Szinger, 2007




Angel or Alien

Walking home alone the other night
When looking up the sky ahead I saw a light
I quickly identified it at as a UFO
But what it really was I don't know
Was it an angel or an alien ?
Or was it something else again ?

Hover above the world we weave with our machines
One giant step or small leap it's of our means
For what could be more human than to
Make a thing to do the thing you do ?
But is it a demon or is it a dinosaur ?
Is it something more ?

Walk on said the man in the moon
Why do the stars in the sky ?
Walk on said the man in the moon
Moonchild teach me to fly
They know you've walked miles alone
All that has shone upon soon will be shown
Walk on said the man in the moon
Go home, go home yeah

Twelve thousand years that they've been gone
An outer orbit on that big wheel one time 'round
But they're on their way now, yeah they're coming home
The stars are aligned man in the moon will leave his light on
All night long

And do they come to enlighten and set us free ?
Or to blind us with bling and enslave us with TV ?
And will they bring death to the world of illusions
Ideas categories ambitions confusions
A shooting star is just a rock falling thru the sky
So is a meteor a metaphor or just a lie ?

Look up said the man in the moon
How can the stars in their turn ?
Look up said the man in the moon
Moonchild teach me to learn
They know you've walked dark years in dreams
Look deeper and see that it's not what it seems
Look up said the man in the moon
Go home, go home yeah
