May I - Pop Goes The Weasel - Why Are People - Here I Am

May I
Oh, please may I
Be your bride today
Surely I
Oh yes, surely I
Will mend your shirt today


Pop goes the weasel
He's such a teasel
And a very naughty boy
He got in so much trouble
He suddenly became a bubble
And a child's (little) toy


Why are people
So cruel?
I don't understand
Why
Is there something
They don't like?
Is it something
That someone did?
Please help me
Understand


Here I am
There you are
Our minds are
Straying too far
You say I'm jealous
I say you cheat
We both want
Each other to defeat
We fight
You hit
I say we've
Fallen in a pit

My Eyes Are Red - When There's Joy

My eyes are red
They start to swell
They're huge enough
So I can't see
I start to dream
I see puppies dancing
Kittens barking
Pink horses
Brown elephants
The alarm goes off
And I have to get up
For another day
Of school
The hours pass on
And my stomach
Tells me, Feed me!
I say be quiet and
Go to sleep
I wish I could do
The same


When there's joy
There's happiness
It's in the air
Grab it
Put it in your
Soul
You will never
Be desolate of'
This wonderful
Thing
Pass it around
To your friends
Your family
You will see
How happy you
Can always
Be

Why Is Life Hard - Take Me Away - Seems Like - There Was A Girl -

Why is life hard
Why is life contentious
Why does everyone
Have to be pretentious
In my heart I know
I don't know who
Else does
There are so few
We come and go
Never finding
Never knowing
I could be asking


Take me away
Take me away
From this state of mind
Where can I go
To get away from
This state of mind


Seems like
You have
Gone and
Left me
Never to
Be seen
Again


There was a girl
She didn't know
Who to pick
So one day
She picked Rick

Heart To Heart - Guys - Love Is - What Are We To Do? - We Go Walking

Heart to heart
We speak


Guys
"R"
Everywhere
But "R"
Not "4"
Me


Love is
Never where
It ought to
Be


What are we to do?
What are we to do?
I don't know about you
I'm going to listen
To the breezes of
The wind
The rush of the
Ocean


We go walking
When the wind blows
Your hair flaps
I close my jacket
Trying to get warm
You see me struggle
With what?
My life or jacket?
We go walking
When the wind blows

Voices Rendered - I Once Had You To Lean On - A Woman Is Sitting - I'm Lost In A World

Voices rendered
Headache


I once had you to lean on
And now you are gone
What am I to do
Now that I miss you
I had a problem
You came to me
I tore you apart
And now you are gone


A woman is sitting
By her door waiting
Waiting for someone
Who took her heart
And loved her all
Through the years
Of their marriage
She will see him soon
Sooner than she
Thinks; Knows
They will be
Together again


I'm lost in a world
All of my own
No one can understand
No one can be confused
I'm trapped in a world
All of my own
No one can enter
No one can leave
I'm caught
I'm surrounded
By people who
Don't know what's
Going on in
My mind
Sometimes I feel
Like killing myself
There's only one thing
Holding me back
The Celestial
Kingdom

There Was A Man - Where Are You? - I See Your Light Shine


There was a man
This man had a shoe
The shoe had a hand
The hand held mine
Mine held yours
Yours held the mans
Now it's Saturn's turn



Where are you?
Not with me
I wish you could see
All I've gone through
What is love anyway?
It's just a word you wanted
Me to say
My heart broke that day
I have nothing to say


I see your light shine
I see your face glow
There's something about you
I want to know
You have a smile
That brightens your face
You can see it
In every place
You say it's from
The gospel you teach
You tell everyone
Who is within reach
There's the baptism
And conversion
But first of all
There are the discussions
Now I have the glow on my face
You can see in every place

My Eyes - I Walk Down The Beach - What

My eyes
See you
In her
Arms
You don't
Know how
Much that
Hurts
I could
Crawl into
My skin and
Hide


I walk down the
Beach
I feel the sand
Beneath
It feels good to
Escape
If only for a little
While
I see long time
Friends
I see long time
Relatives
They start to fade
Away
And I'm brought back
To reality


What
Can
We
Do
To
Enjoy
This
Night
Of
Our
Youth
Under
The
Stars?
