Rufus (the fern)

My name is Rufus and I come from the woods
I'm a very large fern but I'm ever so good
I've been wishing for a very very very long time
That someone come along and dig me up

I want to go to the city and see all the sights
I want to go to the city maybe have my name in lights
But firsts things first someone gotta come gig me up
And up till now well I ain't had such luck

Well one cold day someone did come dig me up
and so I was sitting in the back of their big truck
The wind was blowin all through my leaves
And at that very moment I still could not believe...

I was going to the city going to see all the sights
I was going to the city maybe have my name in lights
But up till then I was not to optimistic
But deep down in my roots well I surely did wish it

Well we got to the city and I got put in a pot
And let me tell something man well the city is Gosh darn hot
But don't you worry cause they did not forget
to water me lots so that I stay wet

I was going to the city gonna see all the sights
I was in the city but still no name in lights
but don't you worry cause the worst fear for a fern
Well the worst fear for a fern is for a fern to burn

A couple days later after coming from the country
I got moved once again cause I did not look to comfy
Well they put me with some a my old friends
And I was so so excited to see 'em all again

Well finally in the city with all the sights to see
I didn't need my name in lights no that were not for me
Cause I had the sights of the city and all my friends to talk at
And let me tell you something, there ain't nothing better than that!
...At least for a fern there ain't!

The Mirror Man

The Mirror man sees you everyday
Look's right at you everyday
stares you down till you look away
The Mirror man sees you everyday

He's just like you in everyway
He does what you do or say
Jumps when you jump and plays when you play
The Mirror man sees you everyday

Don't complain about the Mirror man
Cause he's doing just the best he can
To be like you or I am
He sees you everyday the Mirror man

So ROK on Mr Mirror man dude
I've no copyright, you can't be sued
Poor old soul to the mirror glued
ROK on Mr Mirror man dude!

Bet You Didn't Know

You take the cork from the bottle put the bottle on the table
Take a glass from the self but only if your able
Pour the contents in the glass and drink it on down
How smooth it goes

You take a meal from the fridge and put it in the oven
Give the oven tender lovin as you turn her on and up
Go and set the table as you wait for your supper
Oh how good it smells

When you've done eating put the dishes in the sink
Go and get the bottle and have another drink
Maybe take a seat and kick up your feet
Digest for awhile

Make yourself comfy put the pillow behind your head
And don't forget to pick up the book you still haven't read
Turn to the spot where last night you dropped off and
READ READ READ

Bet you did not know
I bet you did not know

After one chapter you put the book down
And you walk to the kitchen where the dishes have drown
In the soapy soapy water you made for their bath
You are a murderer

Well you didn't even ask if the dishes could swim
No you just plopped them all in on a peronal whim
To get them all clean you is stinking mean
You my friend are a murderer

Well you've got them all clean now so put them away
Back in the cupboard to await another day
When the door is opened and the dishes can play
Play with their friends the food

The fork and the knife and the spoon and the bowl
And the glass and the plate and the mug with the ear hold
And now that I mention it I didn't even ask if
They all have names

Bet you did not know
I bet you did not know

Well back to the bottle from which you had a drink
I bet you didn't even realize give a damn or think
About any strange worlds other that your own
If so my friend you are all alone

Miss Communicate

Some waves are large
and some waves are small
and sometimes there aren't waves at all

Most things are beautifull
Are they not?
And yet all things of beauty seem to have been caught

All words have been spoken
at least once or twice
and yet the ones I hear aren't so very nice

All words have been written
so many times
Used in communication to speak our minds

To the man on the corner
Wearin big black shoes
He seems so amused
As we miss-
Communicate

Some things are real
and some things are fake
and the latter of the two always seems to break

People fall in love
And then they fall out
and then they wander around wondering what's it all about

And the man on the corner
With his umbrella standing there
He doesn't seem to care
As we miss-
Communicate

Wake Up

You wake up in the morning and the dream is all gone
Is this reality? Where did I go wrong

Could I go back in time with the knowledge I have now
Maybe change the world for the better but I wouldn't know how

It's a pity we only learn from the things we do wrong
In this case the Human race ain't so very strong

The clock is ticking on ever so fast and our fate will come soon
And I don't want to be last

Maybe you think I'm morbid talking of such things
When there are so many other things to talk about

Sometimes I feel like the world is coming to an end
But I don't know why...I just cry

Kazru



Lovely is the rose
when she closes her eyes
No one really knows
what she dreams of at night

Full of will and reason
wisdom and truth
There is no one I'd rather believe in
than you or mother earth

Dear lady of the white rose
You are so composed
of all the great qualities
that your namesake does hold

Kazru I some how need you
to help me sort out
the clouds drifting by
In my memories

All the sky has fallen down
around me, surounds
Apocalypse comes
to be crowned

All Mighty Thunder Cloud

All mighty thunder cloud
You blow us all away
You grow so tall so fast
You block the light of day
You blind us with your lightning
And deafen us with your thunder
As to your origins
Well man has long since wondered
We deemed mortal man
Have no sense of patience
Give us answers now
To your beauty and your violence
On this day deemed bad luck
You are glorious
SUN
Sunset lights your steady sides
As you pass us by
Oh mighty thunder cloud
You blow us all away
All mighty thunder cloud
You blow us all away
Of the mighty thunder cloud
I have nothing more to say!
