I do not sing any of the new songs. But I can sing Let the Little Girl Dance.
Teen angel, I’m sorry, It’s now or never, everybody’s somebody’s fool.
Alley-oop, itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polka dot bikini and chain gang.
Poetry in motion, Georgia on my Mind, Little Ole Lady from Pasadena.
My foot is tapping in my car as I drive to I am Woman, Let it Be,
Ain’t no Mountain high enough, Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves!
We’ve Only Just Begun, Call me, Raindrops Keep Fall’n On my Head
Yesterday I noticed I was driving 98 miles per hours to the 70’s songs.

Hooray!
Wet grassy feet fill my soccer cleats.
Hot sweaty teens run fast track meets.
She skis down sugary mountain tops.
He begs his coach to play shortstop.
Footballs, field goals, fumbles.
Touchdowns, tackles, tumbles.
My mother keeps warm with hot brown drinks,
as I learn to skate on chilly rinks.
A sadly splintered hockey stick, from a two-quick hat trick.
A winning catch is cradled in a well-loved mitt.
Tiger wins with a hole in one.
Miniature golf is much more fun.
Double dribble the whistle blows.
Excitement on the court grows!
Busy balls dunked in their hoops.
"Hooray" the three cheers for the ALLEY -OOP!

more or less to "Ally Oop"
I like to take a dump in my mommy's back yard
(Take a dump. Take a dump.)
Sometimes it's soft, sometimes it's hard
(Take a dump. Take a dump.)
The one thing that's invariably true
(Take a dump. Take a dump.)
The best fertilizer is my poo!

GEWETE.
Hoe jy nie in die lug bly hang nie
jou koue greep , harde hale
en tussen die droe takke le jy vir my en glimlag
en daar skiet die hemel oop
oplaas `n warm wind
wat streel streel jou koue asem weg blaas
en hoor nou net die kore van `n oggend lied
bring die lente stuk stuk terug
met eens die verlede lank klaar verby
en sit ek weer in die oggend strale
ek hou jou briesie op `n afstand weg
lag lag fluit die lente blare
skoon is die lug met aand sterre skitter
diep asems en tande kners
stok styf span die rug want
skielik hoor ek jou nog sag sag vir my vluister.

Alley Oop and a girl name Ooolah
danced the wigglin’ wooly-boolah
Doc Wonmug was called
Oscar Boom just stalled
Told Doc, “Ooolah’ll get by with a doula”
‘Cause Doc was a time travelin’ nut
With a full fuzzy beard and bare butt
(so we are told)
Hey, he was old!
—Couldn’t trust him to deliver a mutt
Oscar and the doula got by
Alley Oop watched on with a sigh
out came a cave man kid
with a slip, slide and skid
which Queen Umpateedle caught on the fly
King Guzzle said, “This is so cool!”
Grand Wizer said, “Send ‘im to skool!”
but old rhyming Foozy
just made up a doozy
about Dinny, the dimwitted fool
So things are just ducky in Moo
I hope things are ducky for you
if not, read the funnies
or POtree soup punnies
and smile! —whatever you do

Jag musiek
Verworpe noot van harts-musiek
Het jy by my in die kerk versoek
Ek het gesing die Eng’le-lied
Vir daardie Engel in die Boek
Verlore is my sang-talent
My toekoms wonder ideal.
Maar die blomme het hul saad gegooi
Vir jou is daar weer ietsie mooi
My toekoms bly steeds oop, maar toe
Oopte vir veranderings, en toe om net te proe
Tot dan ten minste, so sê ek
Die nag sal kom wat ek vertrek…

Voëlvry
Niks wat hom keer
die voël in die lug
sy vryheid word meer
en vryer word die vlug
Strek jou vlerke oop
En pak die lewe aan
Staan op en loop
Die harde lewensbaan

Jy by die see
In my drome sien ek ‘n duidelike beeld
Van jou en hoe jy wandel langs die see
en die aandwind huil alweer verveeld
net voor die eerste ster sy glimlag gee
Donker kaalvoet spore sink diep in
nog dieper in die nat en koue sand
Ek verlang nou, en ek wens, besin
Ag, was jou spore maar in my hand
Die lang spore ry loop kronkelend
Soos wat jy vlug, en soos wat jy jaag
Weg van die bruisende gety
Oomblikke later – Die maanlig skuif verby
Die laaste sonlig weerkaats jou gesig
Al blink dit nogsteeds, steur dit nie jou sig
Jou een oog is oop, en steeds is hy droog
Tog wil daar trane uit alby oë kom.
‘n reguit ry spore vleg deur joune in
Iets jaag jou steeds
Of wie volg jou spore, waar het dit begin?
dalk kan dit ek wees?
Jou spoor is nog nie in myne gevlek
Die strand lê nog ver vorentoe uitgestrek…

Summertime in Malibu
Laying on the bed completely naked,
Watching the moon and drinking my Martini,
How I wish to have you at this moment, my summertime.
Without change anything except our bodies,
Our lips, our way of standing by one soul,
Hoping for a unseen love so beautiful, so pebbly off,
For a night and a day I can fall into these mountainous thoughts, and carry myself away into this nothingness
As they say it...
Ah, where are you, summertime? Where?
Under the widen edge of my bed, transfixed by more
Revelation, to your eyes closed, where the spirit
Wept in the darkness, telling me I am so unappeasable
To be carried without wonder?
No tears came from my eyes: the lovely flood of living,
When I froze the tranquil wave of the waiting
Pain of this imperial love that he had given
From inside me, I closed my legs --Oop!
My eyes and I go to sleep.

Sassy Betty Boop
Said: "Don't take away my boop-oop-a-doop."
Innocent sexuality caused male obsession.
Womanly charms had them lined up in succession.

VANITY’S INSANITY
I have corroboration concerning my mental state
Let’s just say it ain’t great
I have confirmation concerning my cognitive skill
Let’s just say it’s lucky for me stupidity doesn’t kill
I mean one must begin with the premise that life’s all about choices and consequences
While I tread water trying to hang onto my senses
One must, in order to agree with me
Not possess a doctorate or a degree
Just common sense which I seem to severely lack
And it only gets worse when I sadly look back
Back when every request by anyone I'd deny
And the result is that I think something squared with an “r” is a pie
No, I don’t know nor do I care to know what kind of fruit
And not only that but the point about me being ignorant is moot
My left hand only knows what my left hand is doing
While a pain in my right hands tells me troubles a brewing
No doctor has ever referred to me as being narcissistic or vane
I however, at this point in time, have been diagnosed as being completely insane

COMICS
Remember the comics?
Sunday morning
Paper at the door
After breakfast
Sprawled on the floor
Reading the comics
The characters
Both colorful and exciting
8 full pages
Variety inviting
Loving the comics
Hoople and Martha
Tracy and his Tess
Every Sunday
They’re in such a mess
Laughing at the comics
Mutt and Jeff
Mutt so tall
Jeff like Stan Laurel
Vacuous and small
Needing the comics
Sunday’s rest
A chance to renew
Popeye Alley Oop
Blondy Valiant too

A WAVE
Love
A nest
A love nest
Just two people
Care for each other
Just two in all the world
The rest? Like wild animals
But the two put out vibrations
And there is visible evidence
Have they made a difference? But of course!
The local savages are curious
How strange the nest-people are acting
They actually share their food
And are constantly hugging
They seldom yell and scream
Talk by the campfire
“Should we kill them?”
“Let them be!”
Says Oop
Love?
