It’s clear to me that the past is gone. Ain’t no use crying about it The new crowd will swiftly push us aside I use my voice as best I can I’m not about to be silenced This melody is coming straight from the heart Something tells me Time is gonna go my way I’m out of my shell And doing things my own way It all changes when there’s no-one above you Feel like an orphan so late in life The river flows and it never ever dries. Suddenly you’re in the driver’s seat Don’t have a clue about your destination See the world through someone else’s eyes Something tells me Time is gonna go my way I’m out of my shell And doing things my own way You’re a jerk until you’re a genius There’s a price to pay for being famous Something tells me Time is gonna go my way I’m out of my shell And doing things my own way

Girls 03:37 video
Girls on the road, Girls in the air Girls in the cold Girls everywhere Girls who don’t feel so safe and sound Who get abused & passed around Girls making music. Girls who are homesick I SING THIS SONG FOR YOU Girls fixing cars, Girls closing bars Girls robbing banks Girls driving tanks Girls who feel they have no choice Those faraway girls who have no voice Girls making money Girls in a hurry I SING THIS SONG FOR YOU Girls who aren’t sure ‘bout being men or women, never mind about just being children Girls who are fathers Girls who are mothers I SING THIS SONG FOR YOU

Destiny 03:20 video
In darker corners of my haunted house Some evil spirits are playing cat and mouse And in a corner of my tortured mind Some parts of me are simply trying to unwind Oh destiny Where are you leading me If I can choose I’ll go to satan’s den Oh destiny What’s down the road for me I know I’ll leave but I don’t know when I like it here although it’s getting bad Of god exists he must be pissed off mad! We’re ruled by psychos and billionnaires We’re on a crash course to god knows where Chorus There’s more behind than there is in front I’m not as sharp and my knifes are blunt And though I feel I still have lots to say Destiny will surely have it’s way Chorus

I’m whipping out my Visa Ready to spend time with you. In wild anticipation Of your latest Pay-per-view And I go ouh,ouh,ouh Maybe I’m crazy I go ouh, ouh,ouh I gotta be crazy Crazy for you I’m crazy for you Best seat in the house for a show that I know so well You say you’ll take me up to heaven but heaven is expensive as hell And I go ouh,ouh,ouh Maybe I’m crazy I go ouh, ouh,ouh I gotta be crazy Crazy for you I’m crazy for you I’m whipping out my Visa Just like I did yesterday You say you missed me I don't believe a word you say And I go ouh,ouh,ouh Maybe I’m crazy I go ouh, ouh,ouh I gotta be crazy Crazy for you I’m crazy for you

The world is cold The night is dark In this empty hole used to live my heart My mind is numb, my emotions blurred How does a soul stay afloat in this cruel world Take, Give, Love What's my reality made of Without you Without your love (2x) I see my reflection in the mirror of time And loneliness is now a friend of mine I will learn, I will learn, I will learn to walk with pain and sorrow I hope the sun will shine on me tomorrow Love, Lose, Cry And I still don't know why CHORUS The void takes up so much space I don't think anyone can ever take your place The night is cold, the world is dark I regret some words I said, it really broke my heart but It's too late now, there's nothing I can do I know I'll manage to go on But I'll be missing you Love, Take, Give From now on, I have to live CHORUS

Your secret is out now It’s all over the news There’s no place to hide We all know you lied Your secret is out For decades of anguish For the tears and the pain It’s time to pay up now We know what you’ve done Your secret is out Pity’s not in the cards Your remorse is a farce And you know Your excuses are lame You’ll take all the blame All the blame The cloak has been lifted Your luck has run out  And though you’re quite gifted And kept to yourself Your secret is out The victims have spoken And the picture is clear The silence is broken  They’ve nothing to fear The secret is out. Chorus Solo Chorus

Crazy planet 03:21
Living here is quite insane        In Smoggy cities  Under acid rain Where does our future lie? The shooting frenzies The countless dead Right wing lobbies pushing lead Violence is on the rise Its a crazy planet It’s a crazy place We call home Ya got rapists and racists,  All over town There’s greed and violence,  all around Right before our eyes Malnutrition, senseless waste The Uber rich  gone in outer-space Will we ever get wise? Chorus I’m sitting here  gazing at the stars Wondering how we’ve done so far? Can we trust our fate? If your not blind,  I think you’ll see Our messed up planet  needs therapy And it just can’t wait

Woke up this morning Thought I was going to die No valid reason so I wonder why… Each day goes by so very fast I dunno which one might be the last Not asking anyone to  understand Don’t need no help Don’t take me by the hand Don’t need to cry cause I’m not sad And I don’t need pity ‘Cause things aren’t bad. Chorus: Time and time again Life has hurt me Love has saved me Medieval times, I was A troubadour Sang for kings and queens When not at war I fell in love with the jester’s wife But I don’t think that’s why I lost my life In fifteen decades I’ll be up on Mars Seeking love while gazing at the stars There ain’t no doubt that life will hurt me Question is, will love come and save me Chorus Solo In ancient Egypt I was a King Tut fan A great ruler, and a brilliant man I was obsessed with Ankhe’s  smile The King found out and tied me to the dial. Early 20th I’m in Montparnasse, Having lunch with a Polish lass I told her she was always late  And that our love would never radiate Chorus

about

Here's another bunch of tunes that are the fruit of pandemic isolation and post-pandemic madness. We're going from Laurel Canyon 1969 to your basement computer in 2022 and all points in between.
Sweet Rosie takes the lead on some of those tracks
and she never fails to turn them into magic!! Thanks rO! You're the best!!
