My Rock and Roll Friend - Gone
They broke the news 
to me today 
    That my friend - who loved rock and roll 
          had left this mortal coil 
We used to burst into song 
   ...

My Soul Is Rock and Roll
I drumbeat your heartbeat
Sweat beating off body heat
I red dye your blue sky
With thunderbolt electrify

Play until my fingers numb
The fine hairs of your eardrums
And rapture into a new verse
Onto your flawless miss universe

My voice caresses the airwaves
All I want is for you to believe
When you...

Rock and Roll
Rock and Roll

Feed me things
That keep me awake
I feel alive
What a perfect date
False friends
Within my circle
False visions
I can't escape
Line after line
Star amongst the sky
Strung out, supernova
Reaching for that first glorious high
Tears welling up
Filling my guitar moon
No more strings to pick
No music to brew
I was born...

Premium Member Rock and Roll
a deck of cards 
a roll of dices
monopoly
you go to jail
an other chance
you hopscotch the streets
or should I say the side walk
as for ever you liked the games
of chance and scrabble
your brain to understand
the meaning of all 
the avenue looks pretty good
from the stoops with...

Premium Member Rock and Roll Ride
We tuned our guitars, we're ready to play our tune.
On a rock & roll ride.Guitar slide to the moon.
Heavy metal, hard rock & roll.
There's enough music to sooth the soul.

We got enough time, to reach the moon.
We got enough time, to play our tune.
Heavy metal,...

A Rock and Roll Odyssey
I had a disagreement the other day
with my pal Floyd who passed my way

He brought his new sculpture for me to see
Floyd's a fine artist, on that we agree

"Wow" said I, "It's an Iron Butterfly"
"He'll soar with The Eagles right up to the sky"

Said Floyd...

Oh, No, She's Stopping Now. (Song To a Rock and Roll Beat)
I heard drums kick in. Now I hear that music. Wait, What's THAT?!
(Sung to HELLO, I LOVE YOU by the Doors.)

Oh, yeah, she's swaying, so get out of her way.
Oh, no, she's stopping now, she's looking my way.
Oh, yeah, sashaying and she won't be defied.
Oh,...

That Was Rock and Roll
Bill Haley gave us 'Rock Around The Clock'
showed us music in a different way,
Chuck Berry sang 'Johnny B. Goode'
and Buddy Holly said 'That'll Be The Day'.

Elvis went to 'Heartbreak Hotel'
and came back as the king of pop,
Jerry Lee sent us 'Great Balls Of Fire'
while Danny...

My feet are on the Rock
And my name is on the Roll
When I gave my heart to JESUS
He became my cornerstone

Yes, an angel wrote it 
In a book of solid gold
My feet are on the Rock
And my name is on the Roll

Mr Rock and Roll
Here comes Mr rock and roll
who thinks its cool to be alone
I wonder if he thinks the same
Seven years to the day.

Walking down the street again
trying to find some friends to see
wondering why
No body interesting in you today.

When that day comes around 
The words in...

Premium Member IT'S ONLY ROCK AND ROLL
IT’S ONLY ROCK AND ROLL

“I know it’s only rock ‘n’ roll”
The music genre that emerged
In the early to mid-fifties
Called rock music in mid-sixties

With a back beat and a dance rhythm
I know it’s only rock ‘n’ roll
“I wanna rock and roll all night”
To this edgy style...

I Grew Up On Country Music
I Grew Up on Country Music
When Rock and Roll was king
My friends all liked the Beatles
But, that was not my thing
I liked to hear the fiddle
To hear the joy burst from the strings
I Grew Up on Country Music
When Rock and Roll was king

I remember me...

Premium Member Rock Concert Crowd
Silhouettes in fume thump to a doom, 
They stomp with the rhythm of drums,
They point to the sky and spread open wide, 
Their wrists and fingers and thumbs,

These thousands of people joined at the hip, 
Joined by a common desire,
To lose themselves in the roar...

Premium Member You Were Always On My Mind
Maybe I didn't listen when you told me
Your heart was gentle and kind
Maybe I didn't understand, but you could
have shown me...

All the reasons you were going to move on
All the feelings that were finally gone
All the chances I had actually blown!

Maybe I didn't know you
because...

Premium Member Echoes of the Angel's Fallen
Invocation to the Muse

From the gleaming skin of life’s underbelly, 
sin unreconciled, formed from Nephilim seed,
fleet footed jokers mask pawns into flight;
To the epistle of the Most High.
For in the beginning, the true and only God,
In natural progression sheds 
His most prized adversary.
Begin, now, that...
