More you than me

It's more you than me

Like the fishes in the sea

When they hold out for school

We better get back to the cool

Oh it's more you than me

I've got an African doll

It's a voodoo for the soul

I've been meaning to break free

Oh it's more you than me

Have you heard the church bells?

The virtues they extol  

so why can't you see?

That it's more you than me

Amulet

 Amulet, oh amulet

Are you for sale or let?

It's the way you dangle like a charm

Just out of reach, fall into my arms

Swinging like a chandelier

Once so far, now so near

I'm in love with you Amulet

Oh Amulet, you're like Juliet

And I'm your Romeo

Come down from your balcony

And we'll go home-o

No I don't want an Emu, I want an Amu

But it'll have to be an IOU, I won't forget

If you want us to walk in our dancing shoes

Dear Amulet

Oh Amulet, oh Amulet

I can see how it's dangerous for you

To stand there so alone with vacant eyes

Like a warehouse with no goods

Empty as a pocket, oh my poor Amulet

Once you were filled with eyes and ears and legs

Once there were boys and girls and now

There's only pigeon eggs

Well if all the world's a stage,

Then your's hasn't been written yet

Woe betide those who've tried

To write-off the Amulet

You're going to make a come back

I can see it in the stars and I'll bet

You'll make a bloody good theatre

And you deserve another go-get

So let's raise a toast

And make a boast

Of our Dear Amulet

Joke 621

 What type of behaviour do fishmongers exhibit?

Selfish behaviour

House of love

 Put one brick upon another

 For your father, for your mother

And build a house of love

Put one brick upon another

For your sister, for your brother

And build a house of love

Build a bridge across the valley

Throw your TV into the alley

And Let's build a house of love

Build a bridge across the valley

Let the train run forth and sally

And build a house of love

Yes it's a coming out the dark

It's a burning with a spark

So let's build a house of love

Let's leave behind the darkness

Turn on the heat of the furnace

And let's build ourselves a house of love

Yes, you know this could be our finest hour

And it's all in our hands, within our power

So come on let's build a house of love

I heard an owl call

It was a roll call

To build a house of love

I heard an owl call

Gather one an all

Let's build a house of love

Everything has changed

 She sits alone in her room

Contemplating her doom

I walk along I hear an owl

I think I hear a baby howl

The mist fills the road

Like a broom

Sweeping up everything

On its loom

And silently the world 

Has rearranged

Yes it seems like

Everything has changed

Oh yes I can feel it

Everything has changed

In the park is all so dark

On the stage it's turned over a page

And the night has turned on it's light

Yes everything has changed

Everything has changed

Everything has changed

Everything has changed

It's like a needle and a thread

I'm half alive

But I'm also half dead

I've got this real drama

In her polka-dot pyjama

And I've got

All the shots

Of love and rage

And everything has changed

Everything has changed

Dingos eating honey

 You make me feel like the world's unsafe

You tell us all that we can't trust ourselves

You've undermined my faith in humanity

You stir and instil a sense of fear

And before you came it wasn't near

So get the hell off the radio and tv screens

And don't darken the doorway to my dreams

Oh Trump and Elon you all are liars

Sitting up there in your towers on fire

Get out now, I won't bow to you

Because you're the big man with the big world view

Oh get off now it's your funeral pyre

And you built your castle on AI wires

And thought so thoughtless

It's not thought through

Because you only asked an intelligence

That just wants to please you

You got rocks in your brain, and you ain't worth mud

So just wash down my drain with all your spilt blood

And dissolve in the sea and never come back to flood

Our thoughts and our times with your brand of crud

River Mouth Smile

 below the delta

Interminable, intermingled

In the sadness of a thousand water webs

Caught again

The fly is hungry for the gold

Of flow and ebb

That gold thread just beyond its reach

And in the silt, of muddied eyes

It sees the thousand skies

And sands of a thousand islands

All being built beneath the delta

In the mangroves

Below the delta

Where the river leaves its pith

And anger

On its stolen safari through

The land, roving near and far

In its meander

Leaving but a scar

And a smile

On its river mouth

Below the delta

And I am there in my dreams

Washed up between you

And the shore

Washed up between you

And the sea

Knowing not which way to turn

Will the river want more

Want more from me

Or will it set me free

Below the delta
