Music Is My Medicine
When I’ve had enough, and I can’t go on
And all the right oh it seems so wrong, oh I
don’t give up, no I don’t give in I just
turn that dial and start listening to my song
My favourite song
Cos music is my medicine
I take a dose every day and let it chase my blues away
Hey - hey, hey, - hey hey
Yes music is my medicine
Reggae, funk or rock n roll
Country jazz or old time soul - oh oh oh oh – oh 0h oh oh
When I’m feeling low and I can’t get up
And the darkness oh it just fills my cup, oh I
don’t give out, I don’t give in, I just
lay on back, with my earphones in and I’m gone
Really gone
When the needle drops, oh the pain it stops, and the healing starts to flow
Cos music is my medicine……

Livin’ It Up On Love
Feast your eyes upon this world
Realise what its worth
Recognise the truth, that you're the living proof
Don’t open up the door, blow off the roof! - And start …
Livin’ in up, livin’ it up, livin’ it up on love
Livin’ in up, livin’ it up, livin’ it up on love – Lo-o-o-ove.
It’s what youre looking for
Don’t give up do it, live your life
The way you wanna do it – live your life
Don’t give in to it live your life
The way you dreamed it should be
There’s a fortune at your feet (streets paved with gold)
And everyone you meet (is warm not cold)
Fate’s got your name, written in its book
All you have to do, is take another look – and start …
Livin’ in up, livin’ it up, livin’ it up on love
Livin’ in up, livin’ it up, livin’ it up on love – Lo-o-o-ove.
It’s what youre looking for
Don’t give up do it………

You’re not your body, you’re not your brain
You only think you’re dancin’ in the rain
You’re not a woman, he’s not your man
There’s so much more in this master plan
Avatar, Avatar, you drive your body like you drive your car
Avatar, Avatar, oh can’t you see that’s what you are
This earthly body, it’s just a suit
It may look handsome it may look cute
But there’s no limit to you and I
As Jimi said “excuse me while I kiss the sky”
Chorus
We’re all just actors, in a play -rewriting our scenes every day
It’s like ‘The Matrix’, a made-up world - A movie set into which we’re hurled
An Avatar, an Avatar, A supernova superstar!

Spirit (Won’t Break My…)
Can’t put a mask on my heart
Or vaccinate my soul
No, no heavy mob, could do the job, of taking inner control
Of my soul, no, no
They ain’t gonna break my spirit
Nothing’s gonna stop, nothing’s gonna stop,
Nothing’s gonna stop, stop me dancing
No one’s gonna rob, no one’s gonna rob,
rob the love from my heart
They can take away my job, and try to steal my freedom
But oh my God! they’ll never stop me believing
To my soul, no, no
Nothing’s gonna stop, nothing’s gonna stop,
Nothing’s gonna stop, stop me dancing
No one’s gonna rob, no one’s gonna rob,
rob the love from my heart
Won’t break my spirit!
Not my spirit, my spirit, my spirit, my spirit

Happiness Is In Your Hands
Happiness its in your hands – if you choose it
Happiness its in your hands – if you choose it
Clap your hands, Clap your hands, Clap your hands
Clap your hands,
Joyfulness is at your feet, - if you choose it
Joyfulness is at your feet, - if you choose it
Stamp your feet, Stamp your feet, stamp your feet
Stamp your feet

The Speed Of Love
Can’t hang onto fear no longer
Let hate and doubt grow stronger
Gotta let go of all that heaviness
Feel togetherness lift me up – fill my cup – and start
Vibrating at the speed of - l, l, l, l love
Vibrating at the speed of - l, l, l, l love
Vibrating at the speed of - l, l, l, l love
At the speed of love
No more judgement gonna weigh me down
Like a ball and chain prison bound
Gotta cut loose the old and feel the new’s balloon
Lift me up – fill my cup – and start
Vibrating at the speed of - l, l, l, l love
Vibrating at the speed of - l, l, l, l love
Vibrating at the speed of - l, l, l, l love
At the speed of love

A Mile In My Shoes
Take a look, take a look at my life x 2
Hey Politician, can’t you see my problems
I don’t see why there’s so many of them
Its just so obvious from where I’m standing
Why are my shoes so hard for you to stand in
Hey Protester, can't you see my problems.......
Got so much pain, trouble and strife, why won’t you stop messin up / my life…
And walk a mile in my shoes, you’d understand my views
Just walk a mile in my shoes
And see why I choose what I choose
Hey there woman, can’t you see my problems…..
Hey now man, can’t you see my problems…..
Chorus x 2

Fear
There’s a virus going round – of epidemic proportions
It’s causing unrest and social distortions
It’s a plague – changing how we behave
Yes Fear (Fear!)– its here
Forget about the bugs – they’re small
Compared to the panic – that’s got a hold of us all
We’re losing control of our senses
Giving up our only defences
Yes Fear (Fear!) – it’s here
No mask is gonna save us –
because the hand they have played us…is
Fear - Its Here
The ultimate pandemic - a global epidemic
Socially systemic – globally endemic
Fear – its here
The more we keep our distance, the weaker our resistance
Its clear – Its fear

Human Touch
To live this life, beneath a mask
Is more than one should ever ask
To never hold, kiss or embrace
Is building us all a hellish place
We need it oh we need it, we need it oh so much
A world full of care and human touch
We want it, yes, we want it, we want it oh so bad
Cos life without love, will only drive you mad
I want it – human touch
A child is born, it takes a breath
It knows no fear of life or death
It feels the touch and knows the love
Skin on skin, not hand in glove
Chorus

Meditation Is The New Rock n Roll
Meditation is the new rock n roll
It heals the body and it soothes the soul
Opens your mind to a whole new show
Takes you places that you just wouldn’t go
Meditation - is the new rock n roll
The new rock n roll
No need for drugs or, alcohol
All you need’s a little, self-control
And you will fly, up above
Full of joy and, perfect love
Meditation is the new rock n roll
It heals the body and it soothes the soul
Opens your mind to a whole new show
Takes you places that you never would go
Meditation - is the new rock n roll
No more just hippies and, Buddhist monks
Are getting high on the, real funk
Now everybody is now, out to prove
You don’t need needles to get in the groove

The Creator
You are the creator of you own reality
I said you are the creator of your own reality x2
You are the one, you have the voice
You say the word, you make the choice
You are the creator of you own reality
I said you are the creator of your own reality x2
There’s no one else you’re in control
Don’t have to rock when you wanna roll
You’re in command, you are the boss
So, pick the best, forget the dross
You are the creator of you own reality
I said you are the creator of your own reality x2
Create!
Put it on your plate

Funk Drunk
If you’re feeling oh so weary, teary, in a mood
Worn down and wondering just what you’re gonna do
Don’t turn to the bottle or bottle it up inside
Get up on your feet and with one soulful stride…get
Funk Drunk! – cos sometimes we all need.. to get
Funk Drunk! – smoke some musical weed
Funk Drunk! – from 7 until 4
Funk Drunk! – til you just can’t funk it no more!
Funk - Drunk
When you just can’t face another single day without some fun
But you can’t afford a getaway to some place in the sun
Don’t try to drown your sorrows in some seedy lowdown bar
Just pop your cork and walk that walk to some drums, bass and guitar ….and get
Chorus
Funk drunk! - You gotta walk that walk
Funk drunk! - You gotta talk that talk
Funk drunk! - Get down to the one
Funk drunk – Get off your face on fun! K!

Love Or Fear

Love Or Fear
With all the things I do and say, I try to ask myself each day
These three things before I start, like all of us, to play my part
Does it bring on a smile, or a tear
Is the road ahead blocked or clear
Will I do it for love, love or fear
Oh, its so easy to pretend, that we’ve no choice, oh and to defend
All the crazy things we do, but next time ask, I beg of you
Does it bring on a smile, or a tear
Is the road ahead blocked or clear
Will you do it for love, love or fear
Does it bring on a smile, or a tear
Is the road ahead blocked or clear
Will you do it for love, love or fear
