Ivory Towers
Verse
Country losing all of it's power
Still views the world from it's ivory towers
All such a country can require of men
Is that they quickly tire
And live on mindlessly content
Zombies for the government
1st Chorus
Where souls sleepwalk and minds go sour
Sacrifice to the Ivory Towers
Verse
Here staring blankly at a page
I met my early middle age
Thinking a thought then I thought again
This is no country for young men
Here memories mushroom into mist
Might have been they half exist
2nd Chorus
And automatic stanzas run
Their course beneath a clouded sun
Bridge (x4)
Perfect frame for apathy
Stretches from sea to shining sea
Verse
Country losing all of it's power
Still views the world from it's Ivory Towers
All such a country can require of men
Is that they quickly tire
And live on mindlessly content
Zombies for the government
Chorus
Where souls sleepwalk and minds go sour
Sacrifice to the Ivory Towers

Story
I 'd spent 2 days at Sony (MGM Studios) pitching a TV show by day and partying hard with the Sony "Boys" by night. I was very tired and my back was really hurting after the very ruff flight back to Las Vegas. As I passed through the door of my house I paused and took a Soma for the muscle spasms and 2 Tylenol 4's for the pain. 45 minutes later the pills kicked in masking the pain and quieting my back muscles. I picked up my old acoustic guitar and played this song. The words and music streamed out perfect, complete and full of emotion. Tears rolled down my face. She never picked me up at the airport, she never answered her phone, I never saw her again. Church Windows is not a country song it's a heartbreak song. "Oh I know this feeling, If you don't then God spared you. I wish He would've spared me too". If your heart is broken this song can help mend it, it helped mend mine, it was a gift at just the right time.

Church Windows©2014
I’m sittin’ here on a bar stool
N’ I’m feeling just like a damn fool
Broken heart, broken down again
She’s gone up and left me
Said she needed somethin’ new
Beating heart, beating blue
Bleeding heart, bleeding blue
Bled so empty I feel hollow
You can see right through me to tomorrow
Ever see a morning sky so blue
Ever see a mourning guy so blue
Chorus
Like a church window
With the sunlight shinin’ through
But all my stained glass colors stained blue
Like a church window
With the sunlight shinin’ through
But all my stained glass colors stained blue
All my colors they’re blue
“Where’s that little lady” everyone says to me
I wish they all knew
Then I wouldn’t say “She’s gone away”
Oh I know this feeling
If you don’t then God spared you
I wish He would’ve spared me too
Lord you could’ve spared me too
Chorus
Like a church window
With the sunlight shinin’ through
But all my stained glass colors stained blue
Like a church window
With the sunlight shinin’ through But all my stained glass colors stained blue
All my colors they’re blue, all my colors they’re blue
Now listen to this old picker pick it blue...
“Where’s that little lady” everyone says to me
I wish they all knew
Then I wouldn’t say “She’s gone away”
Oh I know this feeling
If you don’t then God spared you
I wish He would’ve spared me too
Lord you could’ve spared me too
Spare me lord......

BLOOD
On a cold grimy street in the heart of Chicago
An old man is passing the time
Dreaming about what he might have been
Warming his bones with more wine
All day long in the Factory's of China
Young stand working hands to the bone
In the corner they get only six hours sleep
Cause you've gotta have that new Phone
And we've all got Blood
It flows thru me and you
And mine is red and
You Know yours is too
In a third-floor apartment somewhere in Berlin
Two lovers lay awake thru the night
Whispering promises, building up Dreams
Hoping they all turn out right
In a tiny grass hut down in Kenya
A woman is nursing her child
And baby look's up with those worshiping eyes
And oh how it makes mother smile
And we've all got Blood
It flows thru me and you
And mine is red and
You Know yours is too
Ya we've all got Blood
It flows thru me and you
And mine is red and
You Know yours is too ….......BREAK................
Somewhere a zillion Light Years Away
On a planet very much like our own
A man is gazing out into Space
Thinking thoughts that aren't his alone
And we've all got Blood
It flows thru me and you
And mine is red and
You Know yours is too
Ya we've all got Blood
It flows thru me and you
And mine is red and
You Know yours is too

Red Bud City

Mescal Sal and her pot head pal left California
Via San Diego southern border
The head said she had friends down there and Sal said she’d go anywhere, anytime
The price was right and the price was right . The price was right, the price was right
Sal used her thumb and her thigh for a ride
And the head told stories to pass the time
Seven cities of gold along the sea, Spanish galleons,
The way it used to be, used to be, used to be, used to be
The sun flamed up and the sun burned down
An’ the next time the sun came around
Reflecting rays of red, as far as you could see
Down through the valley, up to the walls of the city, Red Bud City
Chorus
Red Bud City sure is pretty, in the summertime
Running through the rows, without any clothes, well it sure feels fine
An’ I’d like to take you down, but I can only get down in my mind
Red Bud City sure is pretty, in the summertime. Summertime... Summertime...
I met young Stoney in my outlaw days deep in Mexico
At a Oaxacaian club where they pay Sal to peel, sexy and slow
She said fifty a block man, you take it across
But I was listening to rock and watching Sal toss her clothes away
All away, she goes all the way, all the way. She goes all the way, all the way
It only took two days to press those blocks
But it took two weeks to catch that fox
But she wouldn’t come back state side with me
Cause here she is nothing and there she’s the queen of the city, Red Bud City
Chorus
Red Bud City sure is pretty in the summertime
Running through the rows, without any clothes, well it sure feels fine
An’ I’d like to take you down, but I can only get down in my mind
Red Bud City, sure is pretty in the summertime. Summertime... Summertime...
Red Bud City sure is pretty in the summertime
Running through the rows without any clothes, well it sure feels fine
An’ I’d like to take you down, but I can only get down in my mind
Red Bud City, sure is pretty in the summertime. Summertime... Summertime...

Story
In 1989 I became good friends with a UFO "Back Engineer" at the Nevada Test Site Bob Lazar (Google Him). It's all true!
Lyrics
Fire and lightening
Up in the sky
Up North from Vegas
They're flying high
It's the alien highway
Would you like to take a drive
Park the car, listen, look and see
The secrets in the sky
Like fire and lightning
The fly up in the air
And when you see the truth
You may want to blow out of here
Fire and lightening
Up in the sky
And when you know the truth
You may want to run and hide
Say hey, let's go play
Out at Area 51
Fuckin' with the men in black
Can be so much fun
Look over the groom mountains
See how bright they shine
They know we know what they do
Why do they still need to hide
Like fire and lightening
They fly up in the air
And when you see the truth
You may want to blow out of here
Fire and lightening
Up in the sky
And when you know the truth
You may want to run and hide
So come on baby
Let's go take that ride
Up the alien highway
Where the UFOs fly
Park, move over closer
See the secret in my eye
I'm your alien lover
And you're my human bride

Lyrics
I've traveled this world
Searching for that special pearl
I might never find it
I don't care, won't mind that
All the people that we meet
Are walking the same street
What is time
Can you feel it
I can feel it as my face grows old
We all know life's a journey
Lose your body
Gain a soul
Know the way
I can't tell you
I won't even help
The journey is the lesson
You must learn it for yourself
Don't go to fast
Take it slow like good sex
Don't carry too much with you
You may just get there last
What is time
Can you feel it
I can feel it as my face grows old
We all know life's a journey
Lose your body
Gain a soul
Gain a Soul
Life's colors fill your mind
White light so divine REPEAT..
Know the way
I can't tell you
I won't even help
The journey is the lesson
You must learn it for yourself
Don't go to fast
Take it slow like good sex
Don't carry too much with you
You may just get there last
What is time
Can you feel it
I can feel it as my face grows old
We all know life's a journey
Lose your body
Gain a soul

I wrote this song while on a video shoot in the beautiful state of Arizona. Winter at the Grand Canyon!

Chorus
I”m goin’ to see her I know she is home
I’m goin’ to see her Arizona
I’m goin’ to see her I know, I know she’ll be home
I’m goin’ to see her Arizona
I first met this lady so young and so fair
Her smile and her walk could take her anywhere
Love in her heart an’ a soul full of truth
An’ the drive she’s been given, she can drive it over YOU!
And in her mind, she knew exactly what the game was
Time to reach and greet her Arizona
Chorus
I’m goin’ to see her I know she is home
I’m goin’ to see her Arizona
I’m goin’ to see her I know, I know she’ll be home
I’m goin’ to see her Arizona
And in my mind, I know exactly what the game is
Time to reach and greet her Arizona
I first hit the highway so far, so long......
That highway hypnosis only broken by this song
When I reached her state line my mind was “BLOWN FREE”
That Grand Canyon state lay right in front of me
An’ in my mind I know exactly what the game is
Time to meet and greet her Arizona
An’ in my mind I know exactly what this game is
I ‘ve gotta meet and beat her Arizona
Chorus
I’m goin’ to see her I know she is home
I’m goin’ to see her Arizona
I’m goin’ to see her I know, I know she’ll be home
I’m goin’ to see her Arizona.............

I Love the Colorado River. I've spent many Days & Nights Fishing, Camping, and Shooting Wildlife Videos on the River. The Canyons are Breath Taking. If you are on the River when it Rains you will see a Thousand Water Falls cutting the Canyons Walls. It's Where I Want To Go, Where The River Flows.

It’s where I want to go
Where the River Flow
You can see
The SEA
Around the next bend
And I’ve been there
With You
I was walkin’ along the Shore
Toes in the Mud
Oh God it felt sooo’ good !!!
I came upon you laying there in the Sun...
NO TAN LINES......ha..oh... baby.... Awoh...ha ha... Yeah...
It’s where I want to go
Where the River Flows
It’s where I want to be
Just You and Me
It’s where I want to go
You can see the sea.......You and Me........
[LEAD SOLO]
It’s where I want to Go
Down The River Flow
It’s where I want to be
Just You and Me
It’s where I want to go
Where the River Flows
Just You and ME
Floating free...
FLOATING FREE...
FLOATING FREE...

This is my (Dr.Insanity) original version of Place Your Bet. Which do you like most?
Sons of Insanity
Lyrics
Scared, at times we all get scared
And crazy, we're all somewhat crazy
Playing games with our lives
Doing things we know aren't right
Chance the game with a crazy bluff
Do you have enough to lose
Place your bet, place your bet
Man on the street, can't afford to live
Why should I care? Because I've been there
As a kid selling drugs
Doing gigs in all those bad clubs
The game of life is tight
Man, you've got to do it right
Place your bet, place your bet
Luck and skill, winner's in any game
Betting money or your life, are you right
Spending time on your gods
When you die are you gone
Do you know what's right and wrong
And are you strong
Place your bet, place your bet
If you cheat at the game
Will it help the odds
If it don't bother your conscience
And you don't get caught
'Cause you cannot buy time
Who's to say where's that finish line
So maybe it's not cheating at all
Sort of like dealing draw
Place your bet, place your bet
Sons of Insanity
Lyrics
Man o' man, I'm the only wreck in town
I'm lying on the ground so that I don't fall down
She said "Let's go to that rock show. How does that sound?
Well I told her "No" that I couldn't go
She looked at me and said "How does it feel?"
"To be the only one left alone on a night like this?"
Well she turned my head around
I saw the night stars falling down
I saw the sky turning red
As a thought went through my head
It was teenage love that pulled me through the night
It was teenage love that made me feel alright
Say "Hey now girl, why you lookin' so down?"
"Your the hottest babe in the whole damn town"
I said "Let's go to that rock show. How does that sound?"
Well she told me "No" that she couldn't go
I looked at her and said "How does it feel?"
"To be the only one left alone on a night like this?"
Well she turned my head around
I saw the night stars falling down
I saw the sky turning red
As a thought went through my head
It was teenage love that pulled me through the night
It was teenage love that made me feel alright
It was teenage love, we made teenage love
It was teenage love that made me feel alright
