Apart
[CHORUS]
I never do anything that pleases you
So maybe we are better off apart
I don't wanna argue anymore
So maybe we are better off apart
[VERSE 1]
You used to spend time with me
You would never leave
But now the time you used to give
You spend with your friends
Lately I've been feeling you're taking me for granted
You do not appreciate anything I do
[B-SECTION]
That is why I'm leaving you
Sorry cannot fix it
You'll regret everything
You'll be looking for me
You never listen to me
You never really loved me
I've done everything I could

Snakes In The Grass
Snakes in the grass
sliding and slithering
furtively so slow,
can attack so quickly
but at least you know.
The real snakes in the grass
sidling and creeping
slowly so you won't see,
approach from out of nowhere
lest they be
noticed at all.
They watch the fall
then slither away
and take it all,
your peace, your harmony,
your way of existing
as they are co-existing
right in your sight.
These are the snakes
that speak with forked tongue

Observation II
Observation, Orion, sat, sea, vet, vets, Ben, boat, boats, boot;
With your works at hand to be seen by others in this town!
But, try to wake up from this negative world to know the truth.
Observation, boots, soot, sort, soon, vain, train, rain, strain, stain;
With twisted words in the churches to blindfold my people! !
However, it is right to know the truth.
Observation, brain, brains, trains, rest, nest, best, bean, beans;
Down to the river side in this village,
But, somebody dropped in the bomb to kill many! !
Observation, ear, era, are, tear, tears, tea, eat, ate, bait, sate;
Words of love and works of peace!
Bringing in the truth to satisfy the hearts of many;
For, Rome was not built in a day.
Observation, seta, vent, it, is, in, sin, tin, bin, bins, tins, bone;
Dancing with the tunes to expose your body! !
But, someone needs to tell you the truth about this muse.

Too bad that all the people who know how to run the country are busy driving taxicabs and cutting hair.

Fridays Child
(v. morrison)
From the north to the south
You walked all the way
Though you left your left your home for good to stay
Oh you built all all your castles in the sun
And I watched you knock em down
Knock em down each and everyone
Fridays child cant stop now
Fridays child cant stop now
And I watched you before you came to old
Told you a long time before it ever came to be told
Youve got something they dont wanna know
See youve got to hold on hold on and never let go
Ooh fridays child cant stop now
Dont stop
Ooh fridays child cant stop now
There you go rainbows hangin around your feet
And your makin out makin out with everyone that you meet
Even havin a ball and stayin up late
And watched the sun come up round notting hill gate

Mirror
Oh! Mirror the most loveable, cunning queen
You reflect in mostly whatever you have seen.
Face is the mirror of the soul
Literature is the face of the society as a whole
Oh! Mirror, you have to reflect me as it is your goal.
But why do you really fail to show my soul?
Whatever I do
In front of you
You do that ditto
If I lit a cigar, you lit too without nitto.
Even you can reflect the fire
Even you can make caricature
Out of me without any failure
But why do you really fail to show the fire
The burning sensation of my mind
And the sound of anguish which is in the wind?
Oh! Mirror, you are such a beauty! !
You have so much unparalleled quality! !
