Snow in San Anselmo
The deer cross by the lights The mission down in old San Rafael A madman looking for a fight A madman looking for a fight The massage parlor's open The clientele come and they go The classic music station Plays in the background soft and low Plays in the background soft and low The silence round the cascades The ice crisp and clear The beginning of the opera Seem to suddenly appear Seem to suddenly appear The pancake house is always crowded Open twenty four hours of every day And if you suffer from insomnia You can speed your time away You can speed your time away Snow in San Anselmo My waitress my waitress my waitress Said it was coming down Said it hadn't happened in over thirty years But it was laying on the ground But it was laying on the ground |

Warm Love
Look at the ivy on the cold clinging wall Look at the flowers and the green grass so tall It's not a matter of when push comes to shove It's just an hour on the wings of a dove I dig it when you're fancy dressed up in lace I dig it when you have a smile on your face This inspiration's got to be on the flow This invitation's got to see it and know It's just warm love It's just warm love And it's everpresent everywhere And it's everpresent everywhere That warm love .... To the country I'm going Lay and laugh in the sun You can bring, bring your guitar along We'll sing some songs, we'll have some fun The sky is crying and it's time to go home And we shall hurry to the car from the foam Sit by the fire and dry out our wet clothes It's raining outside from the skies up above Inside it's warm love Inside it's warm love And it's everpresent everywhere And it's everpresent everywhere That warm love That warm love........ And it's.... |

Hey kids dig the first takes
Ain't that some inspiration When Sinatra sings against Nelson Riddle strings Then takes a vacation Seen some hard times Drawn some bad lines No time for shoeshines Hard nose the highway I was tore down at the dead's place Shaved head at the organ But that wasn't half as bad as it was oh no Belfast and Boston Put your money where your mouth is Then we can get something going In order to win you must be prepared to lose sometime And leave one or two cards showing |

We were the War Children
Born 1945 When all the soldiers came marching home Love looks in their eye Tennessee Tennessee Williams Let your inspiration flow Let it be around when we hear the sound When the spring time rivers flow when the rivers flow Rod Steiger and Marlon Brando Standing with their heads bowed on the side Crying like a baby thinking about the time James Dean took that fatal ride, took that ride Tennessee Tennessee Tennessee Tennessee Williams Let your inspiration go Will you be around to hear the sound When the spring time rivers flow, rivers flow And Steiger and Marlon Brando Standing with their heads bowed on the side Crying like a baby thinking about the time James Dean took that fatal ride, took that ride And we were the Wild Children Back in 1945 When all the soldiers came marching home Love looks in their eyes, in their eyes |

Did you ever hear about the great deception?
Well the plastic revolutionaries take the money and run Have you ever been down to love city? Where they rip you off with a smile and it don't take a gun Don't it hurt so bad in love city Don't it make you not want to bother at all And don't they look so self righteous When they pin you up against the wall Did you ever, ever see the people With the tear drops in their eyes? I just can't stand it, stand it no how Living in this world of lies Did you ever hear about the rock and roll singers Got three or four Cadillacs Saying power to the people, dance to the music Wants you to pat him on the back Have you ever heard about the great Rembrandt? Have you ever heard about how he could paint? And he didn't have enough money for his brushes And they thought it was rather quaint But you know it's no use repeating And you know it's no use to think about it 'Cause when you stop to think about it You don't need it Have you ever heard about the great Hollywood motion picture actor Who knew more than they did? And the newspapers didn't cover the story Just decided to keep it hid Somebody started saying it was an inside job Whatever happened to him Last time they saw him down on the bowery With his lip hanging off an old rusty bottle of gin Have you ever heard about the so-called hippies Down on the far side of the tracks? They take the eyeballs straight out of your head Say son, kid, do you want your eyeballs back Did you ever see the people With the tear drops in their eyes? Just can't stand it no how Living in this world of lies |

It's not easy bein' green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves When I think it could be nicer bein' red or yellow or gold Or something much more colorful like that It's not easy bein' green It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things And people tend to pass you over 'Cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles On the water or stars in the sky But green is the color of spring And green can be cool and friendly like And green can be big like an ocean Or important like a mountain or tall like a tree When green is all there is to be It could make you wonder why But why wonder, why wonder? I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful And I think it's what I want to be |

Leaves of brown they fall to the ground
And it's here, over there leaves around Shut the door, dim the lights and relax What is more, your desire or the facts Pitter patter the rain falling down Little glamor sun coming round Take a walk when autumn comes to town Little stroll past the house on the hill Some more coal on the fire will do well And in a week or two it'll be Halloween Set the page and the stage for the scene Little game the children will play And as we watch them while time away Look at me and take my breath away yeah You'll be smiling eyes beguiling And the song on the breeze Will call my name out and your dream Chestnuts roasting outside as you walk With your love by your side The old accordion man plays mellow and bright And you go home in the crispness of the night Little later friends will be along And if you feel like joining the throng Just might feel like singing Autumn song Just may feel like singing Autumn song You'll be smiling Eyes beguiling And the song on the breeze Calls my name out in your dream Chestnuts roasting outside As you walk with your love by your side And the old accordion plays mellow and bright And you go home in the crispness of the night |

Well, the summertime has gone
And the leaves are gently turnin' And my love, I wanna take you To the place heart-a-yearnin' Will you go? Lassie go And we'll all go together In the wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will you go? And I will build my love a tower At the foot of yonder mountain And visit by the hour From a lonely wooden tower Will you go? Lassie go And we'll all go together In the wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Come on At the foot of yonder mountain I will visit by the hour With the lily of the valley Go, will you go? Lassie go And we'll all go together In the wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will you go? Lassie go Will you go? Will you go, will you go? Will you go? Lassie go |
