Grey Skies
© Jeff Patch SOCAN
Grey Skies, remind me of those fall times
When dreams died and shadows darkened my sight
But I still saw the love in your eyes
Dark times, barely feeling alive
Inside, unkind, my distance making you cry
It’s alright, I still saw the beauty in your eyes
BREAK
New times, common dreams can be realized
By my side, guiding me to a new life
But what of your dreams, are they reflected in my eyes

When I Dream
© JCT and Joe Bonnell SOCAN
You know I like the way you look
I like your eyes
Your eyes in dreams
Your eyes in dreams
I like the way you hold my hands
And the way
You understand me
You understand me
Babe you’re alive
Keeps me alive
Babe you’re alive
Break
Was I your lover, was I your friend
Was I an escape
For you?
An escape for you
He was the darkness, you were the light
That burned bright
In your eyes
Your eyes in dreams
Babe you’re alive
Keeps me alive
Babe you’re alive
Break 2
Even though you’re gone
You’re still here inside of me
Even though you’re gone
I see you when I dream
Break 3
Your light so bright
Will it still shine on me?
It’s your light that keeps your
love alive in me

Time To Rise

Dawn of the day
Sky of time
River of the dead
Time to rise
Blood of the night
Skin of time
Dancer of the dead
Time to rise
Dreamer of the dawn
At the dawn of time
Sky of the dead
Time to rise
Go get it again
We got it again
Body of the day
Blood of time
Skin of the dead
Time to rise
Singer of the night
Dreamer of time
Dawn of the dead
Time to rise
River of the dawn
Body of time
Blood of the dead
Time to rise
Go get it again
We got it again
BREAK
Dancer of the day
Singer of time
Dreamer of the dead
Time to rise
Sky of the night
River of time
Body of the dead
Time to rise
Skin of the dawn
Dancer of time
Singer of the dead
Time to rise

Preacher
© JCT and Joseph Bonnell SOCAN
On the day I was born
The preacher said to me
Now you’re getting older
What do you want to be?
Now you’re getting older
What do you want to be?
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
The preacher told my Momma
The preacher told my Papa
Cry if you want to
Lie if you want to
Your boy’s got a Gypsy soul
He’s born to rock and roll
Your boy’s got a Gypsy soul
Gypsy Soul
I said Preacher, Preacher
(Baa baa black sheep)
I said Preacher, Preacher
(Have you any wolves?)
Take these chains off of me
(Ashes, ashes)
Take these chains off of me
(and we all fall down)
Preacher told my Momma
Preacher told my Papa
Pray if you want to
Say it if you want to
Your boy’s got a Gypsy soul
He’s born to rock and roll
Your boy’s got a Gypsy soul
Bridge and oohs etc
Angels
Thirst for power and gold will blind your soul
Son please come home while there’s still time
Stumbling down to the gallows
The preacher holds the key
There's a raven on your shoulder son,
It’s time to shake it free
It’s time to make a choice son, so what’s it gonna be?
It's too late for me
I'm just too worldly to see
(Living by the sword)
Hey!
Preacher told my Momma
Preacher told my Papa
Cry if you want to
Lie if you want to
Your boy’s got a Gypsy soul
He’s born to rock and roll
Your boy’s got a Gypsy soul
I said Preacher, Preacher
Won’t you save my soul

The Loon Song AKA Conversation With The Loon Master
© Jeff Patch SOCAN
I see you now almost every day
You turn around and try to walk away
You start to run but there’s no escape
You’re mine (you’re mine)
No more wonder, no more delight
You’ve lost your freedom, not just your mind
The body trembles, the mouth is dry
You know you’re mine (you know you’re mine)
Just when you think you got a hiding place
Just when a look of fear it leaves your face
That’s when I find you and I integrate
Into your mind (into your mind)
Feel it in the brain
When it’s chemically re-arranged
It don’t matter what you think or where you go
BREAK
Hoochie koochie dribble down your chin
And skinny girls who think they aren’t thin
You can run the race but you cannot win
‘Cause you’re mine (‘cause you’re mine)
Instant gravy, processed potato pie
No more truth, just a pack of lies
No one lives, we’re all gonna die
And you’re mine (and you’re mine)
You make me laugh when you beat your drum
And say your mantras over and over again
It does no good ‘cause I’m telling you son
You’re mine (you’re mine)
Feel it in the brain
When it’s chemically deranged
It don’t matter what you think or where you go

Happy Dance
© Jeff Patch SOCAN
When you get lucky do the happy dance
Get down, get funky, and take a chance
Don’t be sad and grumpy, what’s past is past
So get yourself jumping and do the happy dance
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Mini Break
If you like sunshine, if you like the rain
If you like moonshine or if you abstain
When you’re first and when you’re last
Get yourself jumping and do the happy dance
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Mmm get Funky
Mmm get Funky
Mmm get Funky
Mmm get Funky
Break
When you’re wet and when you’re dry
If you’re flirty or if you’re shy
If you’re lonely and need romance
Get yourself jumping and do the happy dance
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Do do do do do it
Mini Break
When you get lucky do the happy dance
Get down, get funky, and take a chance
Don’t be sad and grumpy, what’s past is past
So get yourself jumping and do the happy dance
Mmm get Funky
Mmm get Funky
Mmm get Funky
Mmm get Funky

Lady of the Night
© Joseph Bonnell & JCT SOCAN
She puts on her best dress
Puts on her dancing shoes
She puts on her best dress
Puts on her dancing shoes
She’s going out tonight
She’s going out tonight
She’s running from the light
She knows it’s not right
She’s a lady of the night
She loves to roll the dice
You love the taste of her wine
She’s a lady of the night
She tells you white lies
Says her Mama don’t mind
Her Mama don’t mind
Now that she tells you
She wants to be your lover
And now that she’s older
She’s got all the answers
She’s bolder now
She’s gone colder now
She’s going out tonight
She’s going out tonight
She’s ready for a fight
You know she’s not right
She’s a lady of the night
She loves to roll the dice
You love the taste of her wine
She’s a lady of the night
She tells you white lies
Says her Mama don’t mind
Her Mama don’t mind
BREAK
Now the night has spoken
And now your mind is broken
Alone again this morning
You couldn’t heed the warnings and
She’s going out tonight
She’s going out tonight
She’s boarding on a flight
Will you ever get it right!
She’s a lady of the night
Lady of the night
She’s a lady of the night
Driving you mad

Burdock

Maybe I shouldn’t hold you girl
but you’re here next to me
And I can feel your heartbeat next to mine
Maybe I should let you go
but I don’t know
Well I hope someday you’re going to want to stay
I hope someday I’m going to make you smile
I hope someday you’re going to stay a while
When you’re down and out
Please know that I can ease your pain
When the world gets dark Life’s not easy
Like the stars in the sky
Your life keeps shining on and on
Then the world outside is turning
woo hoo hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh
I hope someday I’m going to make you mine
Ah ooh ooh ooh
I hope someday I’m going to make you mine
Like the stars in the sky
Your life keeps shining on and on
And the world outside keeps turning
Like the stars in the sky
Your love keeps shining on and on
And the flame inside is burning
‘Cause I’m stuck on you
Yes I’m stuck on you
Stuck on you
Yes the flame inside is still burning for you

Did I Dream You
© Jeff Patch and Janet Patch SOCAN
Quiet day
Sparkling rays
Embrace you by the water’s edge
You stir me
Your gaze, your ways
Allure me
Did I see you?
Did I dream you?
Shimmer softly
Evening glow
Gentle thoughts, the sun sets low
You moved me
Our play, our days
Renewed me
Did I see you?
Did I dream you?
You knew just what to do
To come into my heart
BREAK
Soft night
Starlight
Dancing in the evening sky
You knew me
Reaching out
You touched me
Did I see you?
Did I dream you?
You knew just what to do
To come into my heart
You knew just what to do
To come into my heart

Hipster

Hipster
I see you there
with your girly body and your
shaggy hair
You got your tight jeans
and edgy style
know the good bands
on the scene
Scenester
You ain’t real
just a poser,
not the real deal
you got the cool hair
and skinny pants
but you don’t know shit and you
can’t dance
Beard dude
wearing plaid
you got your work boots and
you look sad
Hipster, Hipster, Hipster, Hipster
Millennial
Princess
Never worked a day
You’re mega maintenance
Been helicoptered
Never had a scrape
Won many prizes
but never first place
Jockstrap
At the weights
Think you’re King Kong
And Jungle Jim
When you score
You make lots of noise
You got there
Shooting Steroids
Hipster, Hipster, Hipster, Hipster
BREAK
Hipster
You got the aura
Got the man bun
Under your fedora
Got your moustache wax
In your man purse
The shop windows
Are your mirrors
Hipster
You rule
King of it all
in your little world
Hipster
Enjoy it now
‘Cause pretty soon
You’re goin’ down

End of the World
© Jeff Patch SOCAN
You had your Palin
Not you got your Trump
And solar panels are draining the sun
Spirit science and Mother Jones
A new religion
Coming into it’s own
It’s the end of the world
It’s the end of the world
Darwin’s dying, just watch Fox news
Don’t take them pills
I hear ya Tom Cruise
Gonna astral travel my ass outa here
Escape the zombies
Take my Goop cure
It’s the end of the world
It’s the end of the world
Praise Be
Save Me
Love Me
While I take my selfie – x2
Mini Break
Aliens chillin’ on the TV
Test my chakra
Awaken my chi
What you believe is what comes to pass
Raise your vibration
Give us your cash
It’s the end of the world
It’s the end of the world
Bridge
Praise Be
Save Me
Love Me
While I take my selfie – x2
It’s the end of the world
It’s the end of the world

Disbelief

I…….
I broke on through to the other side
Gonna try……
to break on back on a spirit ride
Don’t got no Mother and
don’t wanta let a brother down
Why…..?
What makes you think you’ll get an answer now?
When all the time….
you know your Gods have always let you down
Don’t got no Mother and
don’t wanta let a brother down
Gimme, gimme, gimme your candy cane
You’re self obsessed but you’re always game
You got your Mother but
you done let a brother down
Hey…….
what will it take to wash that drink on down?
Gonna play…..
your games of chance and drive them underground
Don’t got no Mother and
don’t wanta let a brother down
Break
Gimme, gimme, gimme your candy cane
You’re self obsessed but you’re always game
You got your Mother but
you done let a brother down
Did you say….
you thought He heard you ‘cause you were kneeling down?
When you prayed…
for life eternal on some blessed ground
Don’t got no Mother and
don’t wanta let a brother down

Distant Music
© JCT and Joseph Bonnell
I’m wanted by love
I’m wanted since I broke your heart
And it’s a race against time and I know we’ll get by
It’s a race against time and I know we’ll survive
‘Cause I’m driven by some distant music
I said I’m driven by some distant sound
By some distant sound
BREAK
Driven by some distant music
Driven by some distant sound
Driven by some distant music
As the years have gone by and I take a look back
This road that I’ve chosen was my destiny
My destiny
Yes I’m driven by some distant music
I said I’m driven by some distant sound
By some distant sound
By some distant sound
BREAK
The autumn leaves are falling
His destiny is calling
The moon and stars I gave him
I could not make him stay
