NEW: "10 Years (After The Twister)"

The idea for this song came from the title of a recent Fort Worth Weekly article. I remember being 10 years old myself when the tornado hit, and of course it seemed larger than life. It was not just some cloud; it WAS Destruction, Death, & Chaos. I wrote this song to say "I'm over some of my tornadoes. How about you?" 


Lyrics:

Ten Years
After the Twister,
Cowtown is put back together.

Ten Years
After the Twister,
I am almost put back together.

And I have so many problems,
I'm such a nervous
Wreck.

And I have so many problems,
But at least I'm out
Of the Twister's path.

Ten Years
After the Twister,
Fort Worth is put back together.

Ten Years
After the Twister,
I am putting myself back together.

NEW: "Honey & Money"

I took the Veggie Tales song "The Bunny" and made it even more sour, dark, and bluesy.



Lyrics:

The Honey,
The Money,
Oh! I want some money.

I don't want my mama
Or my papa,
Just some money...

I don't want no food-stamps
When I get hungry.
Just give me
A big bag of money.

I don't want no health-care
When I feel funny.
Just give me a big bag of money.

Honey, honey, honey, honey,
Honey is money!

& Money, money, money, money,
Money is honey...
Mmmm.

NEW: "Doctors & Nurses & Patients, Oh my!"

I wrote this one just the other day, and I decided it had to be posted immediately. Its my attempt to show just how fun & funny it is to be in a loony bin, and how EVERYONE in there seems a little off: Doctors, Nurses, AND Patients...



Lyrics:

Doctors and Patients
Are trying my Patience.
Doctors and Patients,
Oh my!

A patient asked me once,
"Would you like to try the Punch?"
And without warning, he gave me
A big ol' black eye!

Well, doc! Doc! Doc! Doc!
Patience, patience, patients!
Doc! Doc! Doc! Doc!
Patience, patience, patients!
I got no more patience,
Oh my!

Well Doctors and Nurses
Should buy us all hearses.
Doctors and Nurses,
Oh my!

They should buy us all a hearse,
'Cause our condition's gettin worse,
And we're reminded all the time
We're gonna die!

So have the courtesy
To buy that hearse for me!
Oh you know I'm just a dirt-poor white guy.

Nursie! Nursie! Nursie!
Hearses! Hearses! Hearses!
Nursie! Nursie! Nursie!
Hearses!
Nurses buyin hearses, oh my!
