Wishing Well lyrics and music copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

I've gotta a secret, I shouldn't tell. Gonna go to heaven in a split pea shell.
My lovers heart is wishing well, and I'm a prince placed under a spell.
Oh. her hearts my wishing well

I've got a secret, kinda hard to admit. This old wishing becoming a habit
Every since I seen your face, the amount of my wishing's been such a disgrace.

There is a wishing well, deep in your soul, just like the days of old.
Throw this penny, let it cast its spell, you never know whose pretty face you'll see reflected
in the waters of that old wishing well.

I've got a secret not to be missed
Cause I'm the frog who'se puckered his lips
I'm wishing for her every day, may I'm wishing her life away

I've got a secret, I shouldn't tell, I'd throw a million pennis in this well.
I'm wishing for her everyday., come here, pretty princess kiss my blues away.
Oh her hearts my wishing well.

Maxine lyrics and music by Jon Gindick copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

She flashes like a diamond    her skin’s an invitation,
Her perfume is a billboard, her lipstick is a lions roar
She walks like Bo Diddley plays guitar
wriggling those hips, blowing kisses at all the cars
Tight red shorts make a valentine, long legs, bubble behind

Maxine                           Is that you?
In the clothes you wear   when the rent come due

Maxine and Lola were Standing around. Lola says man I hate this town
Miss my Ma, Miss my Pa, Wanna go back home to...Omaha
Just then ‘nother Benz pulls off to the side. Lola goes to give the gentleman a midnight ride
Maxine stands on that sidewalk alone, needs a hundred dollar bill for a 30 day home

Sirens pierce the soul of the night, dented old pickup pulls off to the right
Guy with a face like a trash can lid, on that soft squishy seat maxine slid
She knew from her feeling what was coming next, told herself if was for the best
They found her later, in the morning rain, blue eyes bulging from a crimson stain

Some girls are rich, some girls are broke. Some girls get married, some girls won't.
Some girls are straight, some are bent. But girls just want to pay the rent

When We Die, We All Come Back As Music
lyrics and music copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

When we die, we all come back as music. What else could we possibly be?
But emotional vibrations that,    sing a special language in a way in fact
that expresses life’s deepest mystery.

I might come back as a bass riff,   rumblin’ beneath the melody
I might come back as a yackety sax, or a piano laughing when my lover strokes my key

Or you’ll feel my soul in a guitar humming   Or a harmonica wailing the blues.
My reincarnation of choice may be some hot chicks voice. Maybe I’ll be some song writers muse

When we die we all come back as music . You can feel the ghosts around you even now
Some fool’s having fun in that snare drum and when you come
they will find a place too for you somehow

When we die we all come back as music. You can feel the ghosts around you even now
Does matter i f you never played or even listened. Your souls vibration makes a beautiful sound
You souls vibration makes a beautiful sound. You’ll join us in glorious sound.

Bird on a Wire
lyrics and music copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

Bird on a wire, singing a song, his own private choir singing along
Nevermore, nevermore will I fall in love

Sunlight come knowing on my pain, reminding me I'm alive again
Nevermore, nevermore will I fall in love

Never again my friend, will you find me on the mend
Nevermore, nevermore will I fall in love
He's been at it since the break of day. Sad Bird won't you fly away
with your never more, nevermore will I fall in love

I Love You More lyrics and music copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

You were crying at the graveyard tears for your other man
I didn't want to put him the ground but I had to make you understand
I love you more, yes oh yes, I love you more
You can't deny it so don't even try it, I love you more

The judge said I was guilty, sentenced me to death row,
Now I'm chained charged shuffling down that old hallway,
and there's one thing I want you to know
I love you ,more, I love you more, yes oh ues I love you more
You can't deny it so don't even try it, I love you more

Ok, I didn't really kill him, I just made up a plan
That's the kind of thing you fantacize when your baby love another man

Bye, bye, baby, I'm walking down that road
Why you had to love that other man so much is something I'll never know
When I love you... (chorus)

Jealous Kind of Guy
lyrics and music by Jon Gindick copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

How could this happen to me. I'm the one who always to be free
But baby when you say you'd rather talk to him at night
When you touch his hand

Cause baby you turn me a burn me to a jealous kind of guy

May the problem is mine, do you have to look so fine?
Cause baby when you get that certain look into your eye
When you touch his hand it makes me want to die
Do you need attention, do you want to fight?
Cause baby you turn me a burn me to a jealous kind of guy

Insecure, I guess it's true, But I'm so in love with you
But now I suspect you enjoy this little game
Maybe for you it's the equivelent of fame
To see if all men everywhere will love you justthe same
And I'm the lucky boy who's the bull'seye for the pain
Cause baby you turn me a burn me to a jealous kind of guy

Mystery of Your Love
lyrics and music by Jon Gindick copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

First time I ever say you baby that's when I knew. There was a mystery connecting me to you
Some kind of energy deep within your eyes got me thinking all about you much to my surprise

I want to hold you in my arms and kiss you while the moon is shiping through the window.
Pull you in through my desire, tortured skin alive with fire
Press your softness up against me, Your sweet flesh breathes against me.
You sweet breath is music playing

Oh you've got to understand. I am just a desperate man
Lost in the mystery, lost in the mystery of your love.

Everyday when you walk by me, how I hope that you will try me
Give me just a look a circumstance, come on baby, give me half a chance
Because this dreaming has no meaning, if its only meaning dreaming
Got to get your loving light into my darkened rooms tonight.

All night long I;ve been pacing, wondering what it is I'm facing
All wants your Holy Fire and to know your deep desire
What I want has no words, just your breath into my ear
Just your arms around me tight. Just your loving every night.

School lyrics and music by Jon Gindick copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

Intials carved by a Davy Crocket knife. Initials carved into my life. Initials carved into some old desk somewhere I was there you were there We were there in school...

I stared out the window and I forgot where I was at. Maybe I went flying, like an acrobat
Maybe the world was a jungle in my head. Maybe I was hearing music from the living and the dead

Chorus
School! Get your little world erased. School! Compete or be disgraced. School! So much boredom to face.
I was there, you were there,we were there, we were there, in school...

She made me stand in front of the class. She asked me are you stupid? And everybody laughed.
She made eat soap and stay after school, She told my mama things, things Ididn’t do
Maybe she was unhappy, maybe I did annoy, but it ain’t cool to take it out on dreamy little boys.

Yes, I learned to read, and yes I learned to write, I learned to play my music, and I learned to fight
I still think back to the days of teachers rule, and I thank the music that survived those early days of school!

Ghost Dance lyrics and music copyright Jon Gindick (c) 2009

Dance to the reaper, dance to your death, dance to moment you take your last breath
Dance to the days, the end of flesh, dance to the life you still have left

Dance to the heart, dance to the soul, dance to the dreams that took control
Dance to the Maker and the Things he made, dance to the world where the music played

Clap your hands,, turn breathe real deep, turn around, shout and leap
All hold hands, all walk away ,you'll dance across the clouds some day

Dance to the music, dance to the beat, dance the good fight for the love wee seek
Dance for tomorrow when you won't be there, dance as though you just don't care

Dance to the reaper, dance for your life, dance your lovers your husband and wife
Dance to your mommy and your daddy too...
Keep on dancing til the dancing's through. Keep on dancing til the dancing's through.
