                                               insanity                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 i think i think too much

sometimes i think i don't think at all 

i think i think too much

playing mental gymnastics i go spastic bounce off the walls

 

i think i'm heading towards the brink

my thoughts race so fast i can't catch a wink

i think i'm heading towards the brink

towards being committed to the care of a shrink

 

insane not me the voices in my head agree with me

the grip of the devil keeps my head level

insane not me i'm sane as sane can be

sane as reality allows me to be

 

i'm not insane just because i'm confused

a live wire with too short a fuse

i'm sane as sane can be sane as the rest of my family

He! He! Ha! Ha! they're the splitting image of me

I like the words a lot except this last line (quoted above) ... I reckon there must be a better line, and I think the correct term is 'Spitting image' (without the L)

Im thinking that this guy is a schizophrenic with a split personality.  thats why i used the word splitting

what more can i say

 

easy and breezy airy and light

baby when your loving me it feels so right

your love takes me to paradise round trip every day

our love's a celebration what more can i say

 

i can tell you how it feels being kissed without demands

lying in the arms every night with a one man marching band

i can tell you you're fantastic i can tell you this much

desire raises the roof floors the ceiling whenever we touch

 

touching my body your love touches my heart

air brushes the inscription till death do we part

touching my body your love touches me deep

at night i count my blessings as you rock me to sleep

 

your love takes me to paradise round trip everyday

our loves a celebration what more can i say

 

i can tell you how love feels how love turned my world around

how love lifted my spirit lent me strength when i was down

i can tell you how love heals the magnitude the depth

how love sweeps me off my feet with each and every breath

Body shot

 

take care of your body it's fuel injected

pumping in leaded just gets rejected

tune up inspection your idles too low

the timing is off it stops when you go

 

you're revving the pedal too much too fast

flooding your engine the lines full of gas

no get up and go you creep and you crawl

if you don't change your habits your muffler will fall

 

it's dragging already hanging on hinges

ready to drop dead from your binges

your tires are worn tattered and shabby

your body is rusted corroded and flabby

 

you need an alignment to set yourself straight

some minor refinement to steer your own fate

take care of your wheels don't wear down the thread

speeding past the limit you're gonna end up dead

shadows of fear

 

seems lately nothing goes right

snagged by the blues i'm feeling uptight

can't see the light dwelling on the past

fear of the future hits me full blast

 

hung up on hang ups hung up on troubles

when life gets too good troubles seem to double

stuck in a rut nothing seems clear

trying to dodge those shadows of fear

 

shadows of fear will eat you up spit you out

poison your spirit plague you with doubt

one thing is certain one thing is clear

nothing can haunt you like shadows of fear

 

trying to make it day after day

those damn shadows of fear stand in my way

they mirror every move every step i take

like a second skin their grip makes me flake

 

use your head like a tool don't play the fool

dodge those shadows of fear baby stay cool

[Fern carle]

godsend

 

dear god

return to me my sanity one day at a time

cleanse me with love with spiritual wine

that saturates my life

dulls the sharp edge of realities knife

 

instill in me integrity

willingness and strength

the desire to succeed 

courage to ask for what i need

 

dear god i beg of you

lead me to the path of my truth

walk me through my fears

break down my walls and release me from the dam of my tears

 

mold me and shape me

etch your inscription on my soul

illuminate my smile 

integrate me whole

 

teach me how to live

how to give

set me free

please God show me what it means to be me

 

[Fern carle]

forever and a day

 

easy and breezy airy and light

baby when you're loving me it feels so right

ghosts of the past your loves blown them out of sight

now the forecast for the future looks sunny and bright

 

clouds of fear disappeared when i took the risk

opened up my heart to happiness

clouds of fear disappeared when out of the blue

i fell head over heels in love with you

 

the sun began shining loves rainbow splashed the sky

my pulse began racing my spirit spread its wings to fly

my emotions started whirling twirling to and fro

as the breath of your spirit sifted through my soul

 

i knew in my heart baby i knew

for the rest of my life i'd be loving you

loving you so strong it blows you away

loving you like there's no tomorrow forever and a day

lori linguini

 

lori linguini wore a string bikini

cause she was steaming screaming hot to trot after the meatballs of maurie manicott

a hunk of a chunk of a man built like hercules

with a fromage 

ou la la!                                                                                                                                                                                                                           that dangled past his knees

a fromage that lori desperately wanted to squeeze up tight in her noodle delight

deep squeeze ti appease her appetite

never ceased

the mere mention of mauries name turned lori into a horny beast

made her long to knead mauries dough

drown in his kiss

as his el dante erection filled her with bliss

ful

lori was on cloud nine in a heavenly state                                                                                                                                                                       when maurie finally approached her asked her out on a date

maurie swaggered over

flashed his pearly whites and winked

nonchalantly asked lori out for appeteasers and some drinks

penis coladas lori secretly wished with maurie as the main dish

but on the night of their date maurie was two hours late

trying to make up for lost time maurie peeled rubber and booked

booked on over to the pasta nook

where he proceeded to get sauced

drank like a fish

made lori laugh so hard she thought she would pish

emotions swimming half stoned

maurie tipped the waiter a fin and tried to coax lori home

(which didn't take much doing

fantasies of mauries doughnuts were already brewing)

anyway

when they arrived at mauries house

walked through the door

mauries libido started to roar

like a lion in heat maurie kissed lori swept her off her feet

flesh on fire maurie fingered lories senses

until she was gasping for air

panting defenseless

nerves hot wired lori sizzled from desire

as mauries monsterous head headed down her tunnel

lori gripped mauries fromage tighter than the tight end of a funnel

deeper and steeper maurie blew lories mind

when it came out the other end where the sun don't shine

which made loriie scream

waking up hornier than hell from a gut wrenching dream
