thru truckloads of his personal communiqués broadcast

They called out "Nutmeg'" hurry up,
Fred is onstage and doesn't want another flop,
I'd been taking dancing lessons overnight,
hoping my under eye bags wouldn't cause too much fright,

Fred in his usual top hat and tails,

You have heard this one said often
Have you ever ‘Drowned in a kiss’?
Have you ever felt your ‘Heart soften’?

Have you ever been struck, by a ‘thunder bolt?’
This one sounds...

There’s a sound and smell that brings back
memories of the long ago,
of those short hours between the work and bed.
The family would gather
in the front room for awhile.
We were relaxed, contented and well fed.
Sometimes we’d...

Christmas bells, can you hear them ringing?
all night long, carolers singing.
A magical night,
your eyes shut tight
waiting for Santa’s magic sleigh to land!

so today, it’s the right day.
And sleep seeds dreams,

Goth Girl, ebony black, manners slack, hit the sack
Gothic, Hispanic, remote chic, slick, sick
Goth Girl, non- conform, nonsense, hence

There is lousy luck at a slot machine.
We play roulette after blackjack.
The table games are just as mean.
Below the dealer’s ace, there is a jack.

Lady Luck disappears this...

If you will say it back
Display the spirit of Christmas
I shall display it back 
Santa’s sleigh for Christmas
Displays a very full sack
If you got what you want for Christmas
What would you...

My horse prances.
And she dances,
As she spins around
She looks graceful
And so tasteful
Her hooves hardly touch the ground
Her long eyelashes
She seductively flashes
As she lifts gently in the air
Her thick mane flowing
From a breeze that's blowing
She dances...

A trip to the Alps in the shimmery...

Stuck in your box of ease
Fear holding you back from being free
Holding to comfort so you'll never fail

So throw off the chains of easy
And mix...

He forgets that he’s a puppet; while out there on the...

Getting bored by the waves and their screech

It was so much fun just talking at our hangout

Soon, we noticed a couple who...

At any rate, Super Glue works all too well,
as I tried to fix my seashell,
it was applied very carefully,
an operation done dutifully 
until Aunt Rosie called on my phone, 
asking for a one-hundred dollar loan.

To eat, and then I snarf my food

I am running late
I don,t know if he will wait
Do I really care if he goes?
Its a blind date after all you know

Why do I always allow my friends?
To talk me into doing these things...

My childhood friend lived in a different city,
him I hadn’t met for long, that seemed an eternity.
A year before he rang up to say he’d one day come,
we’d revive the old memories over warm rum.
