Don’t you think that
It’d be nice
all de time
to have all wheel drive
all de time?

When you’re in the woods
and you gotta go bad
It’d be just fine
to have it all de time.

All wheel drive
all de time

And when on de beach
and you gotta go teach
You wouldn’t mind
to have it all de time.

And when you go out
with your valentine
and you say to them
Won’t you be mine

’cause I have
All wheel drive
all de time

Don’t you feel special
my valentine
’cause I have
All wheel drive
all de time

Yes, I have
all wheel drive
all de time

You don’t mind
if I have all wheel drive
all de time

No, you don’t mind
if I eat the rind
in my watermelon pie
all de time

It’s like
all wheel drive
all de time

It’s the very same kind
that makes you blind
and you can’t find
the waves of sine
or remember the words
for Auld Lang Syne.

‘Cause you don’t have
all wheel drive
all de time

So it’s a shame
for who’s to blame
except yourself,
now you’re outta the frame

I’ll say it again
it’s such a shame
and maybe you’ll do time
for your crime

‘Cause you need
all wheel drive
all de time.

Yes, all wheel drive
all-a de time.

Heavy

Heavy hands, heavy heart,
heavy eyes in the dark
If I knew how, I’d give it up
Wait for – embrace, incremental change
It feels so slow, so strange

But you know me, impatiently
running, knotted at the feet
Yeah, you know me, sensitively

feeling every tiny beat
the rhythm of my life

Corrupt hands, upended cart
When did I do my part?
But I forgive, I now forgive
And stand looking forward to the prize
giving and sharing this new life…

Love is Hard

Love is hard
Love is deep
It will pierce your soul
It will make you weep

Love is hard
The price is steep
It will take your heart
It will make you weak

Yet- you would give it all
For a little more
’cause love is air
And even more

Like rain on a sunny day
Nourishing your soul
Love is life
It makes you whole.

Sourdough.

Yeah, you don’t
hear me say it enough
Yeah, I know
it is you that I love

Open the door
for my distinct pleasure
Give me more
more than I can measure

Ohh sourdough you rock me
You make me eat so hasty
your chewy crust mocks me
with your texture and tasty… pleasure

Awww yeah you
make me salivate too
Damn, it’s true
Never too much of you

Piled so high
layered with turkey and cheese
I can’t lie
Mustard makes me beg, PLEASE!

My Panini
grilled, hot, melted I love you
I’m not skinny
but baby, I don’t blame you

Ohh sourdough you rock me
Your inside is white and pasty
your chewy crust mocks me
with your delicious and tasty… pleasure
