When I was a little girl
I played my music all day long
Lined my stuff animals up and
Made them listen to my song
It went like this:
Lai lai lai lai lai...
When I was a little girl
I played my music all day long
Dress in something grand
Take the stage and face the band and then
We’d play this song:
Lai lai lai lai lai lai lai…..
And the light shine from above
Just doing the thing I loved X2
Lai lai lai lai, Lai lai, Lai lai, Lai lai lai lai
When I was a little girl
I played my music all day long
Simply take a bow and
show the people how I played
I played this song:
Lai lai lai lai lai lai lai……
And the light shine from above
Just doing the thing I loved
Just doing the thing I loved
Lai lai lai lai
Lai lai
Lai lai
Lai lai lai lai X2
Lai Lai Lai Lai.

Happy
03:41
|
|||
I see you coming up the mountain, with some broccoli
You make me happy.
You make me red rice and it tastes so nice
You make me chai, you’re such a good guy
You make me happy.
CHORUS:
And when I’m sad I’m glad to be with you
Even in my foul moods
You give good lovin’ no matter what
You make me happy.
25 hour mountain power
Got no hot water but we’re happy.
You massage me when I’m in pain
You run for groceries in the pouring rain
You make me happy.
CHORUS (mad)
You give me lovin’ no matter what
You give good lovin’ no matter what
You make me happy.
You’re so good looking and you’re good at cooking and
Your body’s hot but your tempers not
When its cold outside you chop the wood
Your hands are always warm and they feel good
When they’re on me
You make me happy.
CHORUS (bad)
You give me lovin’ no matter what
You give good lovin’ no matter what
You give good lovin’ no matter what
You make me happy. Happy.
Lai lai lai lai….
You make me happy.

Northern Life
05:12
|
|||
Picking blueberries down by the river
And then we’d go for a swim
Watching all the funny shapes in the clouds
As they rolled by
And the trees looked like they were falling from the sky.
Laughing spinning round and round
And the world looked like it was falling upside down
Easy living, marbles and mud pie
Lying in a field, or chasing dragonflies.
CHORUS:
Growing up in Thunder Bay
Northern Life Northern Way
In our fort, smoking our first cigarette
Oh my my my did we get sick
Got caught by my big bad brother
Who threatened to tell our big bad mothers.
CHORUS. CHORUS.

Sidewalks & Raindrops
04:54
|

Sidewalks & raindrops
Stolen glances from behind
Wet window pane.
And the thin man in the overcoat looks
Underloved and overworked
Has he ever been happy?
The lines on his face etch a sad story.
Sidewalks & Raindrops
Blinkin’ neon and buzzin’ Freon
Tired glances from behind
Stained coffee cups.
And the waitress in powder blue looks wilted
Her manufactured smile, slightly jaded
Has she ever been happy?
The lines around her eyes paint a sad story.
Sidewalks & Raindrops
The fan above my head keeps spinnin’ and I
can’t help wonderin’ have I?
Have I ever been happy?
The lines that I write here right now….
Tell a sad story.
Sidewalks & Raindrops
Sidewalks & Raindrops
Sidewalks & Raindrops

Rhythm of Circumstance
04:05
|
|||
Somewhere between the mountain tops, I’ll be dancing
Behind a waterfall, I’ll be laughing
Can you see?
Can you hear me?
Somewhere between here and there, I'll be waiting.
Between the hands of time, I’ll be dreaming.
Of you,
Can you feel me...at all?
But you don’t see
Why won't you hear me?

Mushroom Song

|

If I were a little girl I’d pick a flower for
That boy of whom I just can’t seem to get enough
Flower in your hair so pretty boy you make me smile
Dance with me I’d like to float a million miles higher
I’ll wait here a million years
And if you don’t come I’ll wait another million
All the stars fell from the sky and landed in your eyes
Let me dance awhile in the colours of your smile
I’ll wait here a million years
And if you don’t come I’ll wait another million
Father time is riding high on us he’s laughing down
Cuz the mountains that we built too high to dance around
Eras come and eras go thus flow the laws of time but
Hearts beat differently,
No reason or no rhyme
No reason or no rhyme
I’ll wait here a million years
And if you don’t come I’ll wait another million
Heeeeee lai lai lai lai lai….
Lai Lai Lai Lai Lai.

Cruel Your Heart
04:34
|
|||
Got the sound of that train horn groanin' through my head now
It's 10 feet thick and I watch your back
fadin' away down that railroad track
The sound of the wind whistlin' though the hole in my ribcage and
I'm standing at your six, your backbone swing
draggin' away my heart on a chain
Cruel your heart cruel your heart
Cruel your heart now baby cruel your heart
Old hound dog howlin' through my bones
rattle roll weep and moan
dragged down on my knees baby please come home
Raven caw rippin' a hole right through my eardrum
tells me flat just a matter of fact
the road is told he ain't ever coming back
Cruel your heart cruel your heart
Cruel your heart now baby cruel your heart
Rattle roll weep and moan
Rattle roll weep and moan..
the road is told he ain't ever comin' home...

What ya gonna do when the water runs out?
When the air runs out?
What ya gonna do when the food runs out?
I guess our luck run
LUCK RUNS OUT
I guess our luck runs out
ONLY PLANET THAT WE GOT
I guess our luck runs out
ONLY PLANET THAT WE GOT
What ya gonna do?
WHAT YA GONNA DO?
When the mountains are bare?
No plants no where NOWHERE
No room to spare DESPAIR
Ain’t no life nowhere
Brothers and Sisters
I guess we ain’t got a prayer
I GUESS WE AIN’T GOT A PRAYER
What ya gonna do WHAT YA GONNA DO
When the flowers die
And the bees don’t fly
WHAT YA GONNA DO
What ya gonna do? WHAT YA GONNA DO?
About that hole in the sky?
When the rivers run dry?
WHAT YA GONNA DO
ha ha ha ha ha….
Guess we’re all gonna die ALL GONNA DIE only planet that we got
We’re all gonna die ALL GONNA DIE only planet that we got
All gonna die ALL GONNA DIE only planet that we got
Only planet that we got.

Leaves

Leaves fallin’ from the trees
Fallin’ down down down...
Sally’s hangin’ from the ceiling cuz she
Couldn’t put up with any more bad feelin’ and
Rick swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills
Take away forever the winter chill
Now their hangin’ out
In the local cemetery where the
Leaves keep falling from the trees
Ooh lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai
Where the leaves keep falling from the trees
Ooh lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai
Ch chhhh
Hah hah
Sabrina shot her arm full of holes
Dug herself deep so the story goes
Now she’s got a bad bad habit and she’s
Hookin’ down on sunset strip where the
Leaves keep falling from the trees
Ooh lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai
The leaves keep falling from the trees
Ooh lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai
Ch chhh
Hah hah
Leaves falling from the trees
Fallin’ down down down...
Jack fell from the 35th floor
Fell feet first couldn’t take it anymore
As he fell down down
The last thing he saw before he hit the ground were the
Leaves falling from the trees
Fallin’ down down down...
Leaves falling from the trees
Leaves falling from the trees
Falling down down down down...

Step right up folks
Don’t be shy
Life is a roller coaster ride
Make sure you’re equipped
With your very own barf bag
As we go up and down and all around
On this crazy roller coaster ride
Just when you thought you reached highest ground
Everything turns upside down
And you fall down down down
Upside down.
Lai dai lai dai dai dai
Heeeee ya da tee day
Yadda yadda da tee day
Yadda da da dee
Yadda da da dai …
Life is a motorcycle ride
Laugh all you want
You may swallow a few flies
As we go up and down and all around
On this crazy motorcycle ride
Just when you thought you reached the highest hill
Oh no, you take a giant spill
And you fall down down down
Upside down
Yaddai da dai dai dai
Heeeee ya da tee day
Yadda yadda da tee day
Yadda da da dee
Yadda da da dai…
Merry go round
Your flotation device is located directly in front of you.
Have no fear. Life is strange.
Life is a little crazy.
