Not about how beautiful it is
or how blessed we are,
not about how crafty it is,
in jamming its cruel knife.

or how amazingly it is decimated,
not about our love or spite.
Just talking about life.
Should i...

Talking About Body Parts On a BusWas talking about body parts out loud on a bus
The reaction of passengers was utter disgust
There was shock on their mugs
They thought I was on drugs
Giggled out loud as their ears they did clutch

You Know What I Am Talking AboutWhether You can do it
is hard to see
I dared You to see if You can do it
I know You can do it
But part of me thinks You can't do it
So it's a challenge now
Is it for me
or is it for You?
Who knows?
But whoever...

What Is Wrong With Talking About Other PeopleTalking about other people can hurt you and them
Even if you meant no harm
You could be guilty of a serious sin called, “calumny.”

I'M Not Famous Or Interesting But It Hasn'T Stopped Me Talking About MyselfI wonder if I'll have anything interesting to say again
As I stand in limbo between each interaction
Acquiring nothing in the way of collateral for conversation
Should I be called upon to pass the time
I regularly think I'll fix this, I'll read the papers (I did try)
No...

You’re going to be eighty-one, eh?”
“Yep, eighty-one on the fifth of December.
It’s a fairly easy day to remember, as you'll see,
I could surely use a tune-up or at least a tweak.
The mind great, but the body’s...

And she is always available.
Her phone line is open.
She stands in the street and yells at speeders.
I have asked her not to, but she gets a kick out of it.
She is...

That's What I'M Talking About
If God was in me
would you defend me?
or would you come to kill me
like all these new cats would do
And if God were in me
would it offend you?
if I were not the image
you created for your own benefit

break it down
it tells me God is...

Talking About LoveThey say love is like a roller coaster,
full speed ups and downs
and flips to turn ya right over
Full of cheating, lies and misbelieving
knowing it's hard to let someone get close

and it wasn't right
made me wonder...
