Do The Perp Walk lyrics
Everybody likes a show
but nobody likes a crook
Don't do the crime
Unless you want everyone to look
i hope you paid your taxes
white collar crime's the worst
In another land, and another time
they'd just throw the key in the river
with a splash
Do the perp walk
its time to dance
Here's how you do it
How you do that dance
Get ready to get funky cause
You're under arrest
Put your hands in the air
Know your rights
The cuffs are gonna be snug
Keep your mouth shut tight
until your lawyers come until the paparazzi get their shots
Do The Perp Walk and join the fun
with Jesus,William Wallace,The Wives Of Henry 8th
Harvey Weinstein, John Gotti,all looked great
Bernie Madoff, Martha Stewart accessorized in cuffs
in their country club county issued suits don't look so tough
who does justice serve anyway?
the cops and the press
advertisers and big pharma
hope there is no stress
as you get marched around like a farm animal

Keep Watching The Skies
lyrics by Greg Gray
Tell the world
Tell everyone
Take a warning
Above and beyond
Hear me calling
From the top of the world
Everyone of you
Wherever you are
Everyone that's out there
Listen to my voice
I'm calling out a warning
Wherever you are
Watch the skies
Tell the world
Keep watching
Keep watching the skies

Breaking The Bind
Greg: music
Don: vocals, lyrics
I opened my mind to the possibility
I opened my mind
How far could I fly?
I followed my heart to a new reality
I followed my heart
How long did I cry?
I fell far behind to the probability
I fell far behind
I tried and I'm tired
I followed my guts and my superstitions
I followed my guts
I:m stuck in the mud
I checked with my head and got some partial agreement
I checked with my head
How little did I find?
I.ve made up my mind on my abilities
I'm leaving the past , I'm breaking the bind
I'm leaving the past , I'm breaking the bind

Boredom Is a fetish lyrics
it's a ghostly presence
hiding underneath the
back seat of my car
its a nagging feeling
that won't let me get very far
its a ghastly nightmare
everybody thinks its just mundane
its a lack of context
that only makes it seem so plain
thats what they say
thats what they think
who cares what they say now?
it's a ghostly presence
attempting to gain my attention
its a nagging feeling
just craving my full affection
for all the gold in china
for all the wasted memories
i own this parcel of the universe
don't try it to take it away from me
embrace the magic of this moment
for it will never come again
boredom is a kind of fetish
does that mean you're going to let us...oh!
move onward

Apoyo lyrics
12-25-22
I woke up in a sweat
Didn’t know where I was going
Are we nearly there yet?
Or will we get there in the morning?
I needed reassurance
I needed comfort and relief
and from the shadows he appeared
and I didn’t even need to believe
His language was rather foreign
and his dress was out of place
but his aura just seemed to be glowing
His name means apoyo
His name means apoyo
when I thought all hope was lost
I looked a little deeper
i know everything has a cost
and that nothing is ever cheap

The Rain The Rain lyrics and credits
Greg: music
Don: vocals and lyrics
2 days later and five hundred miles away
it seemed like a different story
a few good nights of rest
should do the trick
let time work its magic on me
even when I dream its raining
I used to know the sun
I thought that we were friends
it sure sounds like I am just complaining
pitter patter deep in my brain
i may be dreaming but its still raining
some time after the flood
the news told a tragic tale
like scripture come to life
and noah said to me that forty would be nothing
its too late to pack your bags
round em up
don't delay
get the birds
and all the creatures
round em up
don't delay
you can forget the bankers and the preachers
even when I dream its raining

Part Of Us lyrics
It was a test of the time I remember
it was a beast of a moment
and just a big old mess
it was a hell of a thing that we went through
but we did it, we came through it
for the rest of our lives we remembered
we went east to encounter
ourselves and revealed
It was a part of our shared time together
and we did it, we came through it
part of us, part of us
it was the best life to have , nothing better
for a moment I blew it
and made a tangle of many things
it was temporary set back for sure then
but we managed, we came through it
all the sorrys I said I really meant them
my timing was so bad and I knew it right away
its in the past now let's just consider
we made it, we came through it
It was a test of the time I remember
it was a beast of a moment
and just a big old mess
it was a hell of a thing that we went through
but we did it, we came through it
part of us, part of us
