Bring me a Banana!

I've been going quite crazy
time has just been going by me
but that's okay
what can I say?
I enjoy seeing things in different ways!
It's been constantly rainy
creeks and streams are just plainly
filled to the brim
water sloshing in
Sloshing to the suburbs
Now the children can swim!
Come caliky kids complainy
talk to the hand and don't say we
don't have a good time
we bump up a rhyme
stick it in some music
and it's surely done fine!
Ooo talyman bring me a banana!
Jump up and down and sing Paanjiii
Sing but the thing is I know we
will be ridiculed
when you're sparkling bejeweled
but you're filled
but you're filled
but you've never been fooled
Ooo talyman bring me a banana!
Silence just slipped in beside me
told to me a secret that I can't keep!
That we're moving to the moon
We're getting there soon.
So pack up your jammies
and be there by noon!
Ooo talyman bring me a banana

Where would we be without gravity?
if every thing fell up, even the sea?
well, that would be the end of you and me
That's were we'd be without gravity
What would we do without the number 1?
There'd be no calculations,
no adding a sum
even a computer would end up dumb.
You know we really need the number 1
What would you do if there was no time?
Never been invented or came to mind?
Other than not being,
well.. you'd be fine.
Never know what your missing without time
Where would you be if there was no space?
There'd be nowhere to show your face.
You could peddle like mad
but still get no place
No your going nowhere without space.

Darkness covers the city tonight.
You stand up for all that is true and right
Espionage, secrets, treason and spies
you know how to live with terrible lies
you spy for your country
you spy for the right
the night is dark and the crimes are many
Your life is on the line.

It was a sticky day in the southwest
The heat was dragging me down
The sun was just setting and I was through sweating
When I pulled into town
The local innkeeper, bartender and baker
all extended to me
An invitation to stay over for one day
I had only to agree
It was later that night when I saw her
as I was enjoying a drink.
My world unraveled
My plans and travels
and I could no longer think
Rosalina Campaloni Dainty
How could you touch my
Life this way
I cannot continue no I'll not be persuaded
to live without love
After this day.
I awoke a patient in a hospital in that same town
seems I'd been side swiped by a bottle
and had taken two days to come around
after this i inquired of her, that women that I had seen,
her name was Rosalina Campaloni
and she came and went like a dream.
Rosalina Campaloni Dainty
How could you touch my
Life this way
I cannot continue no I'll not be persuaded
to live without love
After this day.

Away away away
Today's the day
The Day!
We will find our way
to the treasure at Spaniard's Bay
So tie the main mast down
and gather the men around
I think that we finally found
the map that leads the way
to the treasure at Spaniard's bay
Now stay my friends and see
What will become.
And rely solely on me
and we'll find...
a way...
to Spaniard's Bay
The sun's upon the sea
and we've got a favoring breeze
Steady we make our way
to the narrows at Spaniard's Bay
Because there's treasure at Spaniard's Bay
See my worthy friends
Now this is where it ends
Beyond where those rocks lay
Is the entrance to Spaniard's Bay
And there is treasure in Spaniard's Bay
Look at it all!
It's so beautiful!
We'll all be rich by this time tomorrow!
Away away away
Today's the day
The Day!
We will find our way
to the treasure at Spaniard's Bay
Now we have found what we're looking for
We'll stop here and look no more.
---------------------------------------------------------
Two seasons now and it's come to naught
We've been lured and now we're caught
in Spaniard's Bay
We can't get away.

Was born on a derigible to Russian foreign operatives during the 2nd World War. An accident over Germany's Black Forest left me alone and helpless. I was rescued by a band of kindly squirrels who raised me as thier own. Two years later I was discovered by a band of travelling gypsy minstrels, I was ravaged by scurvy and rickets but they took me in and taught me music. I still had scurvy. ... more
