Floop Goop Suprise

Kanoodle the poodle,
eats blue beans and noodles.
With sticky grey peas,
while he swings in a tree.

A brown fish on toast,
a pink bubblegum roast.
On crackers with cheese,
whilst dancing with fleas.

Red floop juice and blue goop,
makes a purple floop soup.
white fish eyes and black flies,
we've made a floop goop suprise.

as the floop goop cools off,
he starts licking his chops.
He feasts by a tree
then falls fast asleep

ZzZzZzzzzzzzzzzz....

Slam 1 - Big Mister

its funny how  you mention my plethora of girth
this coming from Mister looks like hes given birth
whose idea of excersise is lifting a fork
while drinking straight gravy and munching on pork

See, working at Mcdonalds aint a problem, its true
coz further down the menu they make salads too
so dont even try to give me your flack
Mister Quarter pounder with fries, choc shake and Big Macs

Mister bucket of chicken with pride and with flair
who can eat the whole lot and not want to share
Mister cheese sauce on salads runny eggs and a steak
so dont even try to mess with my weight

i loves ya big brother, Mister 200 plus pounds
you say uv got looks i say thats profound
last time i looked i can run down the street
Mister tries to look down but cant see his feet?

so the next you try and mess with my groove
remember big Mister i got all the moves
so dont try to beat me, it'll end up the same
you may have the looks, but bro ive got the game

Slam 3 H8r

the big slamac was hillarious
especially coming from a slob
make fun of working for maccas
bro at least ive got a job
the ice cream truck touche my friend
but at least i could keep up
unlike your little jellybean
brother buy some viagra
i find it hard to take advice
from a brother with no class
or from a man thats forced to take
two trips to haul ass
who was so fat his photo
kept falling off the wall
who went to jenny craigs
saw their lunches and ate them all
so before you try to fool yourself
the scales know your real weight
so eat your word big brother
like they're a peice of chocolate cake

Love Birds

I wish i was a lovebird
 never lonely, one of a pair
 locked in a cage with the one i love
 someone who is always there

 Somebody i can sing to
 who's song is as pure as mine
 to spend every waking hour with 
a better pastime i am yet to find

 to climb my perch and ladder
 surronded by the bars
 to be hung up high away from harm
 How lucky we lovebirs are

 I wish i was a Lovebird
 for when my lover dies
 I will gladly leave my life 
to be right by her side

Slam 2 Let Dat Flubber Fly

f ar out that was harsh
a nd you say that im soft
t hat response was pathetic
b oy the gloves are now off
o ut of all the things that
y ou could have said

h aving burgers after salads? man,
u r out of your blinking head
n obody eats kfc like you do
g o dunk your fried chicken in a
r attatoullie stew
y ou can say you got some talent

m aybey that is true
u nfortunately we all know that
c himpanzees do too, so
h eave them arms up in the air, and

l ets try excersise
o verall it wont do any good, boy
l et that flubber fly

Oh To Be Free

The people I love try not to show,
But they see me dying and they know.
The battle that takes place...in me,
With my addiction, Oh to be free.

Fifteen years trapped inside,
Thousands of lonely teardrops cried.
Without my addiction, What good could I be?
Thoughts conflicting, Oh to be free.

Desperate to prove I'm right not wrong,
Knowing that i can never really belong.
With my addiction, Much bigger than me,
Wishing it would end, Oh to be free.

Ever consuming, lives destroyed
its been here so long its so hard to avoid
I run try to hide but it still finds me
my head in my hands, Oh to be free

how can i find motivation to breathe
let alone find the courage to finally leave
my pastimes of old, to find the old me
while I’m fighting my addictions, Oh to be free

The Hypocracy That Is Me

feirce, furious, rageful,
passive, meek and mild.
infuriated, vicious,
gentle like a child.

irrationally enraged
patient, quiet and calm.
murderously violent,
kind with open arms.

a rabid livid maniac
affectionate and sweet
desperate and demented
benevolent up beat

awful, brutal, bloodthirsty
thoughtful and generous
relentless savage wild
humane fun boisterous

Nasty evil horrid
courteous and cavalier
vile Disgusting mean
attentive debonair

insane trapped forgotten
gallant noble free
some of the words that best describe
the hypocrisy that's me

Counting My Kids

6 beating hearts, 
both loyal and true. 
belonging to only, 
my 4 and my 2. 

12 eyes see my soul 
1 trust from the start 
1 000 000 memories 
6 smiles touch my heart 

8 years of cuddles 
and countless to come 
Inisde 48 fingers 
and 12 little thumbs 

stomping stampeding from 
12 little feet 
laughter explodes between 
200 teeth 

6 gorgeous heads 
sporting 1 button nose 
each with their own share 
of 6 and 0 toes 

no number to measure 
all the joy that i gain 
only 1 way to fix it 
start counting again

The Mighty Never Fall

Be he perched atop of Everest
Or on the Forrest floor
Screaming out in agony
The mighty never fall
Send forth you army to dissipate
The spirits beckon call
Call on your creator if you must
For the mighty never fall
Hold high your sword or spear or bow
Like many have before
Strike hard through all your enemies for
The mighty never fall
Dig deep strike swift don't blink an eye
Until no one left at all
Battle on soldier of fear
The mighty never fall
Show no mercy it's for the weak
Let out a mighty roar
Toast the fools who've fallen short
For the mighty never fall

Sunset Memory

As I stood atop a hill 
where water meets the sky
I watched the sun descend 
and what wonder met my eyes
The clouds bore through the horizon 
pouring splendour way up high
Its brilliance was confirmed when I 
was joined by passers by
We all stood there in silence and saw 
the peach, the gold the greys
In awe we stood and with one glance
we knew what each would say
Waves smashed the rocks below us
lights bounced between sky and the sea
The cool breeze danced around my face
for the briefest of moments it hypnotised me
Its grandeur second to none with its beauty 
As far as the eyes can see
Its vastness incomprehensible, 
yet there it was, in front of me
The lights from the land burnt bright, as darkness 
Doused the lights from the sky and the sea
the nights chill sets deep like the moments before
thats my sunset memory
