If You Crossed Elvis With Michael Jackson You'D Get Michael Presley Or Vice

A BRIDGE OVER THE RIVER QUIET

‘Tis the infancy of yet another day
And I hear it crying for its bottle now
But I know the sun is no child anyway
It can be a sadistic son and it will teach you how  

I live under a tunnel on the highway’s right
Yet wrong I may ever be
I found an old mattress the other night
so discomfort doesn’t bother me

Today yesterday is but an artifact
An ancient find to hunters of the past
But it seems the sun and Satan have some sort of pact
Alas, whatever it is will probably hold fast 

I’m lucky enough to live with my lover
She’s agreed to live free along with me
And often when it rains we needn’t run for cover
The umbrella is our love to be

The term “shelter” means different things to different people I know
Shelter to some might mean a mansion in France
To people like me and my lover “shelter” means just somewhere else to go
Moved by an emphatic embrace and the lives we each enhance

To us rain, cold or snow doesn’t mean we get up and go
It’s the tortuous sun we know will eventually come
So we weather the weather knowing all we need to know
For my lover and I may be homeless but neither of us is dumb

Now let’s get back to the infant son and the fear of it’s adolescence
Because as we know children can often be rambunctious and rude
In the heat of mid-day we suffer an adult son’s insolence
And being fully grown it only treats us kindly when its in the mood

If You Crossed a Flamingo With a Duck What Would You Get

A BRIDGE OVER THE RIVER QUIET

‘Tis the infancy of yet another day
And I hear it crying for its bottle now
But I know the sun is no child IN any way
It can be a sadistic son and IT will teach you how  

I live under a tunnel on the highway’s right
Yet wrong I MAY ever be
I found an old mattress the other night
so discomfort doesn’t bother me

Today yesterday is but an artifact
An ancient find to hunters of the past
But it seems the sun and Satan have some sort of pact
Alas, whatever it is will probably hold fast

Sick Son

Visiting time was over it was time to say goodbye, i had to turn my head so my son 
wouldn't see me cry. It broke my heart to leave him there, looking so little and alone as i 
turned and walked away that night I heard my son moan,in anger and despair i ran to my 
son's room and asked what was going on, they said ma'am you need to leave the room we 
need to operate then and there i thought to my self had god decided my son's fate?

In Memory of Mark Madoff

The Sins of the Father

By Elton Camp

The Law of Moses explains the reason why
For the father’s sin, his son should not die
As far as what I know, it surely does not seem
Mark Madoff knew his father’s Ponzi scheme

Those once rich people who their millions lost
Are trying to recover their money at any cost
They participated in a dubious, high-risk game
And now they look to others to take the blame

Returns old Bernie promised couldn’t be right
Their lack of judgment got them into the tight
They surely knew, truly honest it couldn’t be
And that it would finally fail should foresee

Perhaps Mark got tired of endless accusations
And to his own character, all the recriminations
With years ahead full of seemingly endless strife
Perhaps that is why the innocent son took his life
