KW, Episode V...

[karaoke'd this gem on Fri., got a poppin' ovation fr. the audience. =p they actually started hootin' w/ approval after the 1st couple lines, hehe...]


*******************

what day is it,
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
i can't keep up, and i can't back down
i've been losing so much time...

'cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do, nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people and
i don't know why i can't keep my eyes off of you...

all of the things that i want to say
just aren't coming out right
i'm tripping on words, you got my head spinning
i don't know where to go from here...

'cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do, nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people and
i don't why i can't keep my eyes off you...

something about you now
i can't quite figure out
everything she does is beautiful
everything she does is right...

'cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do, nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people and
i don't know why i can't keep my eyes off of...

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to lose, nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people and
i don't know why i can't keep my eyes off of you...

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive...

Caught Mr. and Mrs. Smith last night w/ Sharon and Cecille. Despite it being devoid of much of a plot, very entertaining w/ the liberal utilization of heavy artillery and the Pitt / Jolie chemistry definitely had the flyin' sparks. The ending didn't do much, kind of abrupt and pretty lame actually...

Also, pretty funny havin' the opportunity to break a guy sittin' next to us out of his REM. S and C were crackin' up at my attempts, as I finally got the guy to realize it's time to go w/ an authoritative slap to the side of a left knee...

KW, Episode IV...

[i did a rendition of Matchbox 20's Disease at the ML last night, and the audience loved it! man, think i'm truly addicted to entertaining / rockin' the ppl...it's my disease! and it's all pretty exciting, 'cause during this entire process i'm developing / discovering my own signature style that'll be a symbiotic potpourri of my inpirations musically and spiritually. and eventually i'd like to get to the point where i'm gettin' the crowd tipsy consistently, and not just 60-70% of the time...]


**********************


feels like you made a mistake
you made somebody's heart break
but now i have to let you go
i have to let you go...

you left a stain
on every one of my good days
but i am stronger than you know
i have to let you go...

no one's ever turned you over
no one's tried
to ever let you down,
beautiful girl
bless your heart...

i got a disease
deep inside me
makes me feel uneasy baby
i can't live without you
tell me what i am supposed to do about it
keep your distance from it
don't pay no attention to me
i got a disease...

feels like you're making a mess
you're hell on wheels in a black dress
you drove me to the fire
and left me there to burn...

every little thing you do is tragic
all my life, oh was magic
beautiful girl
i can't breathe...

i got a disease
deep inside me
makes me feel uneasy baby
i can't live without you
tell me what i am supposed to do about it
keep your distance from it
don't pay no attention to me
i got a disease
i think that i'm sick
but leave me be while my world is coming down on me
you taste like honey, honey
tell me can i be your honey
be, be strong
keep telling myself it that won't take long 'til
i'm free of my disease...

yeah, free of my disease
free of my disease...

i got a disease
deep inside me
makes me feel uneasy baby
i can't live without you
tell me what i am supposed to do about it
keep your distance from it
don't pay no attention to me
i got a disease...

i think that i'm sick
but leave me be while my world is coming down on me
you taste like honey, honey
tell me can I be your honey
be, be strong
keep telling myself it that won't take long till i'm free of my disease
yeah well free of my disease
free of my disease...

KW, Episode III...

[i really shouldn't have stopped by the Maple Leaf tonight since this is my Air Force wknd., busy building up pallets for next month's 2 wk. excursion to Hawaii, but i did anyway. yeah, the bug hit me, and i felt helpless to stop it...not that i particularly tried to fight it. =] finally decided to perform the Goo Goo Dolls' "Black Balloon," a song that i'd performed a few times and fondly recall fr. my karaoke adventures on Lackland AFB in San Antonio, TX. at the time, i didn't know what this "black balloon" represented, but now that i do it seemed to add a deep, visceral dimension to it since i know people, some who are quite close, that have succumbed to this "balloon." and it felt like the crowd definitely sensed that, and at the end showed their warmth in the form of a hearty ovation, w/ people actually standing up in appreciation. to this point, my amazement at the effect of uncluttered, heartfelt, soul nourishing music on people especially in a such an intimate venue still hasn't let up. and i suppose it's that passion that keeps me coming back.]


***************


baby's black balloon makes her fly
i almost fell into that hole in your life
and you're not thinking 'bout tomorrow
'cause you were the same as me
but on your knees...


a thousand other boys could never reach you
how could i have been the one
i saw the world spin beneath you
and scatter like ice from the spoon
that was your womb...

comin' down the world turned over
and angels fall without you there
and i go on as you get colder
or are you someone's prayer...

you know the lies they always told you
and the love you never knew
all the things they never showed you
that swallowed the light from the sun
inside your room...

comin' down the world turned over
and angels fall without you there
and i go on as you get colder
always someone...

and there's no time left for losin'
when you stand they fall
comin' down the world turned over
and angels fall without you there
and i go on as you get colder
all because i'm...


comin' down the years turned over
and angels fall without you there...

and i'll go on now and lead you home and
all because i'm
all because i'm...

and i'll become
what you became to me...
