There Are Red Roses
help me the dishwasher's on
and i love you too much
help me . . . something is wrong
(such and such and such)
oh for a taste of your touch
oh for a taste of your touch
that be too much that be too much.
this is how you write a song
when you're not knowing what you're doing
let your fingers touch the strings
let your minor thoughts be brewing
i write songs i write songs
i never thought it was a special talent especially
i never thought i was special
any bud can do it if theyre honest naturally
it doesnt take a scientist
even a scientist isnt always a genius
doesnt take a rock scientist to know all we need is love
john lennon was right
there are red roses there are red roses there are red roses
on the table tnite there are red roses there are red roses
there are red roses but i cant eat them for dinner
this is the part when i'm stuck this is the part
when i dont give enough
i am trying to do something in my life
w.out some meaning w.out some meaning
i would rather be sharp than a butter knife
i would rather be dreaming . . .
has anybody ever told you what happens when you die?
has anybody ever told you what happens when you lie?
recently i have learned
what john lennon meant by instant karma
i learned it from this dr. named gabor mate
instant karma means we suffer immediately
like if we tell a lie
we become narrower right away
(narrower right away)
how long can i keep going with this song?
my fingers keep playing different chords
here's a weird one, o-o-oh
here's a weird one.
this is yr mind
it's how it thinks
when you drink...
i'm drinking a martini...
there are some people out there who will listen to this
and find genius in it
and i think that's stupid!
if you gave anyone a guitar and tell them to play some chords
they'd say the same bullshit
but in all honesty
this is how the good songs get written... written
and in all honesty i feel as tho my heart's been bitten...
sittin at a table
im hopin i am able
that i am able
to make beauty out of guitar strings and some wood
