Arthur and Robin Hood<br />
Grandma's House,my house,your house and the little engine that said it could and<br />
the wicked witch of the West<br />
Some things you just can't ignore<br />
it's all just a question of scale<br />
My oars slice silvery water cut in two split the shimmering moon right into twi light<br />
Red tailed hawks soar so high up above<br />
Out paddling way past the civil hour for conversation bar hour 2AM<br />
the magic hour for making movies of a dry drunk who's way over his limit<br />
Sorcerers and Vampires as real as day come out to play here in Californi AY But<br />
there's no real silver bullets<br />
Is it better to have one best day or a string of ho hum drums you don't even play no<br />
more<br />
ANYWAY as you say AS IF WHATEVER just happened though I notice YOU<br />
DON'T SAY<br />
WHATEVER much anymore as a way out as if WHATEVER never happened<br />
ANYWAY.<br />
Old enough to be almost anyone's mother and nobody's baby<br />
Yeah I moved away to a planet where we're listening for sounds and signs of rain<br />
Talking to birds who tell me<br />
don't make the same mistake twice again Measure Once Cut twice have jumper<br />
cables handy<br />
free on the road again after miles of a bad back road what about a balance beam<br />
to calculate the many errors in judgement I made of anyone or anything even proving<br />
to myself by tightrope walking<br />
Old enough to know I ain't in charge of anybody's feelings<br />
and it ain't nobody's business if I do<br />
(Just don't ask me what's in it for you)<br />
Not much call for lone wolves or shape shifting wind walking clouds these days<br />
Who's to say? Could make a picnic, drink a toast under the Mulberry trees out of the<br />
heavy weather storm I've been chasing. My love is not a fragile thing.To think,silly me<br />
I chose this suit of clothes<br />
from an old suitcase long ago the years incarnate only to learn this one thing<br />
how to draw a map of the world that would bring me back to you. Out of the<br />
underworld with the pomegranate and golden thread A new Spring. We'd still be<br />
ahead of the game enough to make our own rules wouldn't that be something ,baby?<br />
(and I 'd still be loving you.This song line is 11 couplets long times 2 once removed<br />
equals me skating a figure 8 on a Northern lake with the loons.)<br />
(A talking blues ,a talkie ! It is an orchestral blues I hear and there are<br />
moments ,movements within,transitions with the droid alter ego helium child voice.<br />
Yucca Valley,California)<br />
