The Koala Did It

The koala did it I heard him say
He left his fingerprints at the scene that day
And was underhanded in what he did
The case is broken that’s why he hid

It wasn’t me who stole the car
Driving it away so very far
And you can see when we’re together
We are nothing alike as you can gather.

Koalas have fingerprints similar to humans.

Colours

Psychedelic colours burst across the sky
Mood rings blink on and off as I fly by
Count the bright stars as they travel with us
It's just nature showing that it doesn't make a fuss

Dream of past lives that you have lived 
As you smile at your memories for what they give
Your cosmic travelling will be a sight to see
What wonders will their be in the future for you and me!

My Friend the Magpie In the Morning Sun

Each morning I hear the warbling
As she sits in my tree
She greets the day in happiness
And when I go to water my plants 
She follows me closely 

I fill her bowl with cool water
Next I see her taking a drink 
And she will take my offered bread
Then she sits in the tree
To warble the day in.

Relax and Laugh

Let’s relax and laugh and sing
Get to it now and make
Your thing
As a medicine it is great
Use those face muscles smile and meditate 

Endorphins will be injected
And for others they will be infected
Add things up in your head
There is more good than bad instead 

Take the time to pucker up
You never know your luck
Life is full and remember the good times
Toss the gloom and it will be divine.

Paradise

Float away on a golden sea of dreams
Lie on a tropical beach in paradise as it seems
Whisper as the cool breeze is on my face
Have no care for the modern times rat race

Sip the cool juice in your mouth as it slides down
See the sea birds whirling as they make their sound
Count the waves as they slip on the white sands
Know there is nothing left that in your life demands.

The Dark Woman's Warning

When I close my eyes it’s there again
A nightmare that could only offend
The dark woman stands with her hooded eyes
Draped across her face in her disguise

And she points at the word written on the stone
In blood with large letters so it be well known
I gaze across in the torchlight to make it out
As I wonder if the writing was a warning tout

But as the words became to me quite clear
I cringed back at what it said in my fear
For it said something that stabbed me in my head
“Your fight is over for you are now dead.”

Dancing On a Saturday Night

If you saw me dancing would you join in
Just come on over and jive right on to begin
When the music plays my feet just move along
So natural it's like they know every rock 'n' roll song

There doesn't need to be a party I swear it's true
And the dance steps you go with is totally up to you
Over the years the dances may have changed 
But it's the beat that keeps your feet arranged.

The Whisper

At the end of the evening 
I closed the doors
And took a breath of air
At the front of my place
The crowd had left and I was left alone

The world was going to sleep
And a quiet settled over all
It’s when I heard the whisper
You are not alone
I shouted Who was there
But I heard no more that night

I heard the whisper again
When I was feeling low
And couldn’t see tomorrow 
It would come again
You are not alone
Who or what it was I didn’t know

So here I am again
When the world seems so low
And I wonder about tomorrow 
My guardian angel would whisper
You are not alone
And I find a way to carry on.

Goin Home

I’m on a one way ticket goin’ home
To the place where I am known
No more travelling around for me
Home is where I want to be

I can see it out there up ahead
All the love in my heart led
And there I’ll rest away from harm
No more roaming no longer alone.

Dealing

Old Sin permeates the air
It doesn't go away in despair
To deal with it is a chore
You will want it to go away even more 

The longer it is around is the reason
When not dealing with it makes it poison
But Old Sin gets harder you know
When all you want is for it is to go.
