I JUST DON’T CARE

Music by Sebastijan Duh
Lyrics by John Greaves

THERE IS SOMETHING IN HIS EYES
THAT I SHOULD RECOGNIZE
BE SMART BE COOL BEWARE

EVEN THO I REALIZE
IT’S PROBABLY UNWISE
I JUST DON’T CARE

MY FEET ARE OFF THE GROUND
MY POOR HEAD IS SPINNING AROUND

PLEASE JUST LET ME FANTASIZE
HE’S NOT LIKE OTHER GUYS
IT’S REAL LOVE I HAVE FOUND

LOOKS LIKE THE WRITING’S ON THE WALL
NO USE IN FIGHTING, NONE AT ALL
WHO COULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT I WOULD FALL
SO HELPLESSLY ?

IF YOU’RE THINKING I AM DUMB
TO FALL UNDER HIS THUMB
DUMB MAYBE BUT I’M HAPPY

MONSTERS

Music by Julien vega
Lyrics by John Greaves & Julien Vega

Ladies and gentlemen
Now is the time
Dusk has fallen
And long will be the night

Are you ready? Behold this most
Awful terrifying sight
Dear guests Please welcome...
The monsters!

Monsters
We are monsters
Monsters
Wild monsters

See these ugly faces
The power in their jaws
There’s evil their gazes
And no pity in their claws

Come closer don’t be shy
Chains about their necks do lie
Just watch them do their stuff
Scream when you’ve had enough

Nasty monsters, ugly monsters, freaky monsters, mean monsters!!!

THE LYRICIST’S LAMENT

Music by Sebastijan Duh
Lyrics by John Greaves

I was asked to write a song
I said “Easy,” it’s “easy peasy”
Just find a word at the end of the line
Then you gotta make it rhyme
With love and stars above
It won’t take you very long

But I found out that I was wrong
Wasn’t thinking, had I been drinking?
Words don’t fall like rain from the sky
But a lot of little jewels
Like tiny molecules
Could grow up to be a song

Try to sing it using verbal dexterity
You can wing it schmoozing perfect sincerity
You could be climbing a stairway to heaven
Once you’re up it you’ll be stuck like a puppet on a string

So we’re coming to the end the conclusion
No illusion,
This little story’s hit the end of the road
And it’s just a bunch of sounds
To please the ear
So nice to hear
And you got another job
Done and dusted

FARMER GIRL

Music by Julien Vega
Lyrics by John Greaves & Julien Vega

HERE ALL ALONE IN THE CORNFIELD AT NIGHT
THE SKY’S FULL OF STARS
AND THE MOON’S SHINING BRIGHT
IF ONLY I COULD FLY OFF LIKE A BIRD,
FLY AWAY, FLY AWAY, LIKE A BLUE BIRD.

Chorus

I’LL BE DANCER TWIRLING AROUND
AN ACTRESS, A SINGER, A BEAUTY QUEEN CROWNED
MY FACE WILL BE SEEN IN EVERY MAGAZINE
FROM PARIS TO L. A.
FROM NEW YORK TO BOMBAY
FARMER GIRL, FARMER GIRL, FLY AWAY ! (DREAM AWAY)

MY MA AND PA BOTH WORK HARD ON THE LAND,
I DO MY DAMNEDEST TO LEND THEM A HAND,
I COULD NOT STAND ALL THE STRUGGLE AND STRIFE
FARMER GIRL, FARMER’S WIFE…NOT ON YOUR LIFE.

Chorus

I JUST CAN’T LIVE LIKE A BIRD IN A CAGE
EACH DAY THAT GOES BY SEEMS MORE LIKE AN AGE
INTO THE NIGHT SKY AWAY I WILL FLY
FLY AWAY FLY AWAY LIKE A BLUEBIRD

I’LL BE DANCER TWIRLING AROUND
AN ACTRESS, A SINGER, A BEAUTY QUEEN CROWNED
MY FACE WILL BE SEEN IN EVERY MAGAZINE
FROM PARIS TO L. A.
FROM NEW YORK TO BOMBAY
ALL THIS I’LL ACHIEVE
CALL ME NAÏVE
BUT I BELIEVE
DREAMS CAN COME TRUE

WONDERFUL NIGHT

Music by Julien Vega
Lyrics by John Greaves & Julien Vega

The snow is falling, it’s a beautiful sight
New York shimmers in the winter light
Everything seems just right
This is such a wonderful night

Lovers on the ice
Hold each other tight
Under the moon shining bright
You may call it nice
I call it magic
Here in New York
It’s a wonderful night

Can’t you see
It’s not reality
It’s a dream that someone else is dreaming
A perfect fantasy, that was never to be
Clearly heaven sent but not meant for me

My glass is half empty tonight
Promise please to make it right

The snow is falling, it’s a beautiful sight
New York shimmers in the winter light
Everything is still alright

I can touch it, I can feel it, I can reach it

This is such a wonderful night

Snow falls...
what a wonderful night!
New york dazzles it shi-nes
with a billion lights
Streets are white
Eyes are bright
It is such a wonderful night!

Sil-houettes skate on the rink,
While chil-dren are making snow men,
and lovers hold each other tight
Some-thing in the air,
a kind of magic,
enfolds New York,
What a won-der-ful night !

From my win-dow
it seems like a snow globe
all this little world glows
but I'm no part of it
i'll spend the night all a-lone
dream that my prince final-ly comes
that we kiss, and dance, and fly
to the moon

I'm cold and so lonely to-night
but at least I can try to en-joy the sight
Wonderful night,
New York shines bright
with a billion lights
it is such a wonderful night

IN THE HERE AND NOW

Music by Julien Vega
Lyrics by John Greaves & Julien Vega

I LIVE IN A KIND OF DREAM
BUT A DREAM THAT SEEMS QUITE REAL
AND I’M ON THE BRINK
BECAUSE WHAT I THINK’S OUT OF SYNCH
WITH WHAT I FEEL

BUT HEY I DON’T GIVE A DAMN
WHAT I THINK IS NOT WHAT I AM
GONNA SHED MY SKIN
AND I’M TRADING IN
EVERYTHING I’VE EVER BEEN

AND I AM NOT AFRAID
NOT A BIT CONCERNED
AND I’LL BE FORGETTING
MORE THAN I HAVE EVER LEARNED
SLIDE TOWARDS THE EDGE
STEP ACROSS THE LEDGE
ALL MY BRIDGES BURNED

TO BE IN THE HERE AND NOW
KNOWING HOW TO HEAR AND FEEL AND SEE
STEP OFF INTO SPACE
ISN’T THIS THE PLACE
I WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO BE?

No Dice (It’s Time to Leave)

Words and music John Greaves

Not prone to exaggerating
No more than my conscience allows
I tend more to understating
Rather than looking a fool

Don’t like giving the game away
I keep my cards close to my chest
Just in case it’s my lucky day
I don’t want to spoil my chances

Joking apart this poor old heart is
Worn out on my sleeve
It’s time to leave
I’m no percentage player
I’ll tear off every layer
And later I’ll be cleaned out
Washed up mangled,
Hanging on the line to dry.
