Holy Water 03:46
HOLY WATER © 2012 Joe Jaunty (inspirational lyrics by Philip Rudell, Fergus Falls, Minnesota, USAl) ----------------- I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Bob" He always drove me crazy - he was such a fuckin´knob! His hobby was to put flyer´s up - tellin´folks; "he´s got me beat!" that he mowed his lawn much quicker than me - (Yeah)- it was always green.. CHORUS: "I´m covered with Holy Water (I´m) carrying Holy Water (I) shower in Holy Water My water is wetter than yours..." (rep) I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Spence" He was always measuring things - in particular my fence! On my way to Town sometimes - on my VW Trike He tried so hard that he almost died overtake me on his bike... CHORUS: (He was) covered with Holy Water Carrying Holy Water He showered in Holy Water "My water is wetter than yours..."(rep) I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Luke" He swore his dog was better than mine (That guy made me puke!) "My mutt can bark much louder than yours - look at him fetch that stick!" Well, I dropped him like a sack of spuds - with a well placed Karate-kick! CHORUS: He was covered with Holy Water Carrying Holy Water Showered in Holy Water "My water is wetter than Yours!" (rep) I once had a neighbour - we can call him "Kurt" he was always playing with his hose - like God´s almighty-squirt! He claimed that he had better land (and) that his veggies grew mighty tall! Spraying down his words and prayed - like I could care at all... CHORUS: Covered with Holy Water Carrying Holy Water Showered in Holy Water "My water is wetter than Yours!" (rep) I once had a neighbour - we can call him whatever U want... always trying to do better than me - what´s the matter with some guys...? CHORUS: Are they covered with Holy Water? Carrying Holy Water? Do they shower in Holy Water? "My water is wetter than Yours!" (rep)

© ALL OVER AGAIN (by Joe Jaunty) /from a real life story by Cathie Fredrickson/ ---------------------------------------- Same thing - same thing - same all over again... It was the middle of the night, I got a call from an Indian girl... drunk at the Native Casino - all alone in the world! /Same all over again/ The wind was pickin´up real fast - rooftops were comin´apart... floodin´Red River - hittin´Fargo hard! And I thought to myself; Oh, no - not this shit again... That telephone call, turned me right awake! But the sheets were begging me to; "Stay! Stay! Stay!" I could tell by the tone of her voice, that she was over The Edge... But I decided to lay down on my bed... I went right back to sleep - instead Same thing - same old thing - same all over again... It would have been a good three-hour drive - in the pouring rain... cross the state to the next one, to the Red Lake...(Minnesota Red Lake) But I made other plans - didn´t show up by the Seven Clans a decision I regret to this day... The Highway Patrolman found her by the Farm station road "She had put up a fight", he said - and that was all she wrote... Tried to get a ride with some guys from Bagley, nearby... "It took her awhile", he said - " to die..." I dream about that Indian Girl (every night) - All Over Again...

Blood Red 03:17
BLOOD RED © (by Joe Jaunty) 2012 Kiss the floor goodnight - kiss it one more time Don´t make a move or U need a kiss-of-life... U thought that I would cry - U counted on a lie But count on This - tonight you´ll Die! /BLOOD RED - BLOOD RED/ Weak brain - narrow mind - call it "to align" call it what U will - that´s fine... Lay down on the floor - I will hurt you some more! I´ve got a stick full-of-fun - SCORE! Sticks and stones may break my bones - but words will never hurt me... See a pin - pick it up - see a bone - let it lie I´ve got a bone to pick tonight... /BLOOD RED/ Toss the dime - decide - twirl it in the sky... put your trust in Lady Luck (she´s allright) U got a 50/50 chance - let´s see if U can dance... I dare U to try - the odds are high! /BLOOD RED/ Sticks and stones may break my bones - but words will never hurt me... See a pin - pick it up - see a bone - let it lie I´ve got a bone to pick tonight... /BLOOD RED/

Mary 03:44
MARY (by Joe Jaunty) /original song written in 1988/ There was a little girl - playin´on a field (wind blowin´through her hair) I was hiding behind a willow-tree (she didn´t feel the stranger being near) Saw her pretty little dress, flyin´in the breeze saw the smile on her pretty, little face Unawhare of what was going on that she was a child on a killin´field... Mary... I - branches and leaves gently swept aside (tender whispers in the trees) She turned - and she saw me standin´there! (a moment, Sir, to seize) I asked her name, strokin´her soft across her hair she told me - her name was "Mary" Just like a princess dancing on a meadow just like a little story-book fairy... Mary... She - wondered who I was - and I told her! I told her - I had a surprise... "We´re gonna´play a little game on the meadow" "gonna´play, little girl, that you´ll be dead..." Her eyes just teased "what a funny game!" as my fingers touched her neck... She didn´t scream, Sir, it was funny... I could do all the things - that was in my head Mary OH, Lord Do You think? She´ll ever forgive me?

COURAGE by Joe Jaunty © 2012 "I wish I was dead", he said with a smile "I turn ninetyeight when the warm summer wind hits fall I outlived everyone - and that´s no life... I would give everything that I have - to bring them back..." "My thoughts sometimes, cruelly, play me a prank that I´m still a young man - deep inside... But those wrinkles on my hands - have reached out and touched life... come what may - I´m not afraid to die..." CHORUS: He said his middle name was "Courage" I could see that he was almost blind... yet - he saw things much clearer than You and I... Yeah - his middle name was "Courage" he walked here for quite some time now - Living forever is not on everyone´s mind... --------- "I can see the sun - when I squint and close my eyes... and I can feel the mild breeze - but I´m cold inside... seems like only memories can keep me warm... Time does that to you when You´ve lived for as long as I..." "The doctors says - that my heart - is just fine - /what do they know?/ and that it will go on - and on -´til the end of time But that young man behind the counter - who sold me this gun... he just took a good look at my face - (and) never asked me why..." CHORUS: He said his middle name was "Courage" I could see that he was almost blind... yet - he saw things much clearer than You and I... Yeah - his middle name was "Courage" and he walked here for quite some time now... - Living forever is not on everyone´s mind... Living forever - is not on everyone´s mind...

WOMAN ON A MOUNTAIN © Joe Jaunty (2011) You say that I look OK - you´re looking at a photo... just taken the other day (truth?) I look kinda´silly, don´t You think? cos it´s hard to believe - that someone like You would even give me a second glance cos when I look at myself - it cuts - like glass... You say that I make You feel like You can almost walk on water... but God hasn´t me convinced - (I guess) I´m still a doubting atheist... So it´s hard for me to see and to really believe that what you say has any substance at all... cos when I look in the mirror - I can´t find - anything at all... I - can hear your heart beat all the way from the mountains........ and it makes - me wear my feelings on a sleeve - like a kind of outfit......... cos I can hardly believe - when You say - that I´m the one.............. Your hands are touching me like the rays from the Sun............ You´re a Woman On A Mountain - and I´m - nothin´ at all... You say that I make You feel like a reflection in a window a dancing gentle breeze on the meadows of Your heart........ but I can´t help to believe - sitting by myself I kind of thrown away all the keys.......... like a pearly, covered cabinet open up; please........ I - can hear your heart beat all the way from the mountains and it makes - me wear my feelings on a sleeve - like a kind of outfit........... cos I can hardly believe - when You say - that I´m the one........ Your hands are touching me like the rays from the Sun you´re a Woman On A Mountain - and I´m - nothin´ at all... Yes, you´re a Woman On A Mountain - and I´m - nothin´ at all...

SHOES 03:53
SHOES by Joe Jaunty (original) © 2012 Intro: I got shoes that that choose to follow me around. Instead of takin´a step and dare to try - that path on the wide horizon. I think my laces are kinda´tied, cuz I stumble all the time. But now I´m taking off the shoes - and I walk barefoot all the time. Yeeeah - I´m kickin´off my SHOES and I walk barefoot - All the time! --- My Mama often told me (I remember that she sighed) She said son: "Why don´t You try a different kind-of-line?" Well, I didn´t quite understand what she meant, but that´s all right cuz now I figured out my own way to avoid that thin, blue line... CHORUS: I got shoes, shoes, shoes that follows me around... they´re different kind of sneakers - they all snuck up from behind! But in void of all those shoe-wears - I guess I´ve drawn the line cuz from now on I am walking BAREFOOT all the time! /YEAH!/ I´m kickin´off my shoes - and I walk BAREFOOT all the time! --- My dad did always mention: "you gotta´make you´re mark in life! It doesn´t matter where U go - just walk in a STRAIGHT LINE!" But I´ve come to realize - that line curves all the time... So I´m putting my shoes on a shelf - and walk barefoot all the time! /YEAH/ I´m putting my shoes on the shelf and walk BAREFOOT all the time! CHORUS: I got shoes, shoes, shoes that follows me around... they´re different kind of sneakers - they all snuck up from behind! But in void of all those shoe-wears - I guess I´ve drawn the line cuz from now on I am walking BAREFOOT all the time! /YEAH!/ I´m kickin´off my shoes - and I walk BAREFOOT all the time!

DUMB-ASS-FOOL //Lyrics & Music by Joe Jaunty// My head is an apartment bitterness is my grey wallpaper Just a one-room-apartment The only tenant is me... It´s based in the downtown in the center of everyone´s attention (you might think) that I am used to it by now but it gets worse day by day... U maybe think that U are ugly but I´m pretty sure - I´m uglier than you U may think that you´re a fool but I´m pretty certain (that) I´m dumber than you... If U think that U are ugly Hey! Take a look at this face! (and tell me) ain´t I just a waste of space? I´m the fool of fools The number one dumb-ass-fool! My head is an apartment I decorate my walls with crazy thoughts There´s nothin´much goin´on... I scare the neighbours off one by one... (and) if U try knocking on my door I will tell U off - Don´t come around here no more! /KEEP THE FUCK OUT!/ /U maybe think that U are ugly.../ (rep) My head is an apartment the walls are thin I can hear people talk about me I close the door and shut them blinds and pretend - that I am fine... If U think that U are ugly I´m pretty sure - I´m uglier than You! If U think that you´re a fool HEY - Look at me! I´m a Dumb-Ass-Fool!!

DELIRIUM TWEEDLEDUM(b) by Joe Jaunty /Sing-Along-Drunk-Song/ I can see a birdie in the sky! It´s sitting on a branch - just over there! And just a while ago, when I was walking underneath that shitty tweedle-dee-dum did a Pee! I can´t seem to find my other shoe... it´s really quite annoying - tuddledoo... I´m pretty sure I once had two - but no matter how I look there is only one there on my other foot... And I can´t find the strings on my Guitar! I think some bastard turned it upside-down! Coz no matter how I play it - I can´t hit a single note! Just yesterday I was a fuckin´Poet! My bottle is as empty as my head (those drummer-boys can really wake the dead) The only way to Shut-em-up is to drown them with my friend /My Best Friend!/ So - Fill ér up - and here we go again! Yeah, Fill ér up - it´s Party-Time again...
