Preface
This is the best of my
dark poetry, six books in all, written during the last 15 years. This book of
songs was put together at the request of a musician friend of mine who was
looking for songs. I thought, I may as well put it online and see if others are
interested.
There are two sections,
the normal songs which could be adapted into any style, and the rap/heavy metal
section. That last section does not mean that the songs really need to be rap or
heavy metal songs, however they appear to be better spoken than sang, or they
are a bit more extreme, in the spirit of rap/heavy metal songs.
If you are interested
in turning these into songs, even modify them for your needs, and perhaps
recycle many good lines from different songs to make new ones, please contact
me and we will come to an arrangement.
Though this is
copyrighted work, you can distribute them around for free with my name and
contact details on them, and even put them online elsewhere as long as you link
them to my website. If you turn them into songs, I will then have to be
recognized as the author, or co-author if you wish to
modify or add to them.
Part 1 – Any Style Songs
It always
comes back to that, isn’t it?
My new big venture will
destroy everything
Poetry to Galvanise a Whole Generation
I am Saint Karen from
New York
I don’t want
to fall in love again!
Permanent Summer
with Palm Trees and Canyons
Whatever it
is you couldn’t stand about me
Los Angeles
does not really exist
Hail to the
bugs, the true leaders of this world
Beyond that Californian Mountain
Tomorrow
will be such a great day all over L.A.!
I cannot be
trusted, I will fail every time
I have lived!
And now I can die…
I Go from One Extreme to the Other
There’s Nothing Worse Than People With
Principles
Oh Gloria, If You Hadn’t Loved Cider So Much . . .
Dear God, Let Me Be Done With It
Come On, Damn It, I’ve Got a Life
to Live
Part 2 – Rap/Heavy Metal Songs (more extreme)
We may still save humanity
in America
The
World is filled with Backstabbers
They’ve
been testing me, like a rat!
Have you lost Faith in Destiny?
Oh please let me be happy again!
Everyone needs to start somewhere
History has got nothing to do with you
Study your
symbolism, for god’s sake!
Desperate for a gun in
America
Let me
buy you out just to shut you up
The
Mormon’s Disney Land in Utah
Notice of Resignation, The Perfect Sample Letter
A Serious Problem with Authority
I’m Going to Find Myself a Whore
I’m Your Inflatable Virgin Mary
Part 1 – Any Style Songs
It
always comes back to that, isn’t it?
(chorus:)
It always comes back to
that, isn’t it?
Oh yes it does
Dear me
I’ve seen it comin’
I always do
What is it this time?
What is this big secret
which will again
Devastate me?
Irretrievably change my
life
To keep me exactly
where I am now
Where we’ve always
been?
It always comes back to
that, isn’t it?
Oh yes it does
Dear me
I’ve seen it comin’
I always do
Oh please!
Can we live this life
without anymore downfalls?
Is it not possible to
live a life
Of
total inaction?
All you need is one day
To destroy it all
When all we have ever
been able to reach
Is the bottom of the ocean
Deeper and deeper
It always comes back to
that, isn’t it?
Oh yes it does
Dear me
I’ve seen it comin’
I always do
No matter how hard you
try
To reach some sort of
happiness
Just for a while
It can never last
You get right back to
square one
Always
It always comes back to
that, isn’t it?
Oh yes it does
Dear me
I’ve seen it comin’
I always do
Another disaster
Another crisis
Some suffering
A lot of crying
Once again completely
lost
Alone in the world
With great unexplored
vastness in front of our eyes
Wishing we could fly
and reach it all
Discover a new horizon
Less horrible than the
precedent
As a law of nature
We can only find
Worse
It always comes back to
that, isn’t it?
Oh yes it does
Dear me
I’ve seen it comin’
I always do
It always comes back to
that, isn’t it?
Yes, it always comes
back to that
It always comes back to
that, isn’t it?
Yes, it always comes
back to that
There’s no way out for
people like us…
There’s no way out for
people like us…
There’s no way out for
people like us.
Reaching an
Crisis Mode
Panic Attack
Here we are
The End of Days
Just like in the movies
It was all true after
all
I can’t think anymore!
I can’t breathe
anymore!
I’ve reached another
Crisis Mode
Panic Attack
Right here on
Dying on the street in
How was that a
surprise?
They were all born here
They all died here
The legends
Drunk to full capacity
Drugged to full
capacity
This is where
Over the cliff
Crisis Mode
Panic Attack
The End of Days
For me to discover now
To understand
To assimilate
To digest
The enormity of it
The enormity of it all
