I don't know about Archbishop Justin Timberlake, 
He’s jazzing up the church, 
Making Jesus controversial, 
Leaving life in the lurch. 

It’s fine to have excitement, 
About any religious thing or assumption, 
But when you poke...

I've always been a mellow
type of fellow
Laidback like dem seats
in that Cadillac
Yeah! Real chill like that
sleek '73 Deville
Even as a little boy
the jukebox was my toy
Sweet rhythms of life
abating all ills and strife
A manchild in...

Mary had a little lamb

The birth was quite a sensation

It should go down in the history books

She needed a lot of sedation

Pinocchio had a very long nose

It grew when telling a lie

Geppetto couldn't keep it...

in her eyes he sees champagne dreams of love 
the soft adagio plays a velvet tune of jazzing blow 
right atop the hearth, she's fitted like...

A super seismic year
Eargasmically one to revere

Sweet pulsating sounds
Bebop starting to slow down

The birth was quite a sensation
It should go down in the history books
She needed a lot of sedation

Three little piggies went tripping along
To the butcher, they were the target
Who was bent...

You've all heard the expression

“He shoots straight from the hip!”

The official dictionary translation...

Actually I would hope this applies to yours truly

No jazzing, no messing around, no hidden agendas

What you see is...

Among The Creations

 
I am blessed for being a God’s creation
Along with the grown-up trees, I build my own foundation

And I whisper to the mighty wind
To bestow me a seed alike wunderkind

[MARISHKA]
Lights, go, down.
Blood, goes, 'round.
Lets, get, started.
Lets, jazz up.

The lights go down and the moon goes up

falling apart
I do not notice it

too late to do anything about it now
when did the three pieces of gingerbread fall off?
Where are the missing wind...

If you have a shower
There is one thing that is certain – 
You either have a door of glass
Or else you have a curtain.

The curtains may be see-through
Or designed to be opaque,
Available in such array

The music of love

Your voice a silken stream of violins
a sea of sound swishing on my calm shore
An overture of blissful laughs and grins
As playful tempos strum your tuneful score

Something I've always wondered about
A subject near and dear to my heart
Why don't sheep shrink in the rain

Maybe their wool is non-shrinking
Sounds quite...
