Give me some of that ole raz a ma taz

Air check backbeat block chords Fusion Bridge
Get down with in

Kicking the can to the curb
So upturn
Boy, I am focused
Got my open-toe shoes on
And one glitter glove
In step of rhythm I am
Kicking the can to the curb

Life in the fast lane
... is go, go, go,
Fleeting in vain ...
Take the one that's slow
100 miles per hour
Pedal to the metal,
One foot has the power
To let that needle settle
Time goes by fast
It goes fast enough,
Speeding right passed
All the good stuff
Rush, rush, rush
There is time to lose,
With stop signs lush
They're there to use
Take a break ...
With life, superb,
For your own sake
Pull over to the curb.

There she lies, all bruised and bleeding.
She always gets up.
There's no conceding.
She'll never comprehend the reason.
Was it too easy because she was seasoned?
Another's strong emotional reaction kicked her to the curb.
Now she's in traction.
A broken system in the dust.
Whom can one truly trust?
Regardless how cloudy some days seem to be,
the sun will break thru eventually.

In case you curb desires, then you win
As your mind is devoid of any bad greed
By suppressing peevish ideas, you clean
Your mind and grow there peace-flowers
Only by overcoming our mind, we succeed
In doing great acts of valor and real merit
We must boost our confidence with skill
And that is possible if we are sagacious
All the negative ideas must be fully banned
Wishes harmful in any way must be stopped
Every possible right thing must be carried out
None must suffer and we must also not suffer
Slavish tendency and superiority complex
Are all very bad things to be by us rejected
We must keep a balanced approach finely
To live on this beautiful Earth with people
We must accept every verdict and attempt
To march toward progress via wise ways
On our path may come hurdles to hinder
Our greatness lies in winning over them.

At the curb
Without its mother
Rusty creature
Up to your knee
New born from the wild
Of unwanted chances
Hobbles on training wheels
Pink-perked handlebar ears
Hand written sign
FREE
Dangling by string
Around its neck
Cottonwood freckles
Snowing seed from the spring
Dots the little thing
The mailbox
And manicured lawn
Camouflages
A hesitation
At a honking horn
From our new neighbor
With young kids
Waving to the old
Out the window
Creature
Waits
Looks
Obedient
To the end or another beginning.

Curb side flowers
Are never alone
A life that was loved
Eternity shown
A place to remember
A marker now set
A life that’s cut short
We never forget
Your very last moment
Of time in this world
Emotions of anger
Finally blurred
Now I just miss you
And times that we shared
If you still look down
Always I’ve cared
These flowers fight the wind
The sun and the rain
I smile through the hurt
I smile through the pain
Curb side flowers
Really show love
For someone your missing
Someone above

Snow was sick to death of doing all the work
While the merry little rat-men sat around
Farting, eating, snoring, farting, and laughing
Snow had decided to not clean or cook or
Do any of that other garbage today.
Matter of fact, she went on the hunt for mushrooms.
She was gathering them about when a nice crone
Came upon her, and invited her to eat a nice juicy apple
The crone had the eyes of one of the dwarfs
This made her mad, so she snatched the apple
Out of the old woman's hand, and smashed it
Into her face.
The old woman fell down, dead.
Oh, gee. A heart attack?
Snow felt powerful now.
She could Kill people?
She lay in wait for the Rat-men that night
Knowing she was capable of much more
Than merely kicking them to the curb
She had brought along all of the old crone's apples
Ready to kill.....

TRUMP IN THE NETHER NETHER
If irate American born Mexicans were to rally together,
Around the world, they could perhaps cunningly tether,
Possibly calm, an uncaring, inhumane disliked leader
Maybe curb the actions of this Mexican bleeder,
Or, banish him forever to the land of nether, nether!

There once was a car with feelers
Feeling all the curbs
This sound of scratching
Would get on your nerves
Now cars have lost their feelers
Giving it up to computer nerds
They can park by themselves
With no worries about hitting the curb

Curb An Herb That Does Disturb
What we need to do is to try and curb,
The use of what is a hullacinatory herb;
Harm may cause;
Must loosen bras;
Can create confusion as it does disturb.

Trump had preferred to eat a certain herb;
When he did caused him to hit crucial curb;
Heard horn honkers,
And he went bonkers;
Driving hard bargain many would disturb.

Curb The Herb With Verve
Instead of controlling and then try and curb
California has named Marijuana as State Herb;
When there went;
Became impotent;
Smoking and use of are each correct verb.

What we suspect is almost always never what it seems,
So why make assumptions we put in place and believe,
Some things we know beyond the shadow of a doubt,
And even then we're still trying to figure it out,
I've had it, I'm done...control can take a backseat,
I'm finished trying so hard, when it's almost never what it seems,
Curve ball after curve ball, I surrender,
I'm gonna let life happen and just get it together,
If you care, you show it, you know the difference,
Words without actions are beautiful from a distance,
Don't take it serious, keep an open mind,
The truth always comes out in its place n time...
