Innner child goes wild outside the cage

G* Don´t let the bastards get you down
G Your fragile smile turned upside D down
D7 Something in life detests a C frown
Am/C Don´t let the Am* bastards get you G down
We are all one or some would say
Unique in the same goddamn way
How easy to forget to play/pray
We are all one or some would say
Life is death so be not proud
Don´t jinx it saying it out loud
One in a zillion face in the crowd/cloud
Life is death so be not proud
Hear me now there´ll come a day
When you swallow what I say
Digest it add it to your way
Hear me now there´ll come a day

Day Without Dopamine
03:09

G F
A day without dopamine like a shower without soap I mean
A life with out hope or dreams no way to cope it seems
Eyes on the prize long term ties to the lies strong firm
Don´t blink soon feed the worms don´t think to read the terms
G F
A day without dopamine like a shower without soap I mean
A life with out hope or dreams no way to cope it seems
Faith hope and charity pray grope for clarity
Cage rope barbarity rage cope polarity

Green Grass of Michigan
05:06

I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
When I left it was a total sin
Now it´s better than I´t ever been
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
I could go to Californi-ay
Or maybe Colorado, USA
Free to choose if I only can
Going back to good old Michigan
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
Tired of being thought a criminal
After all it´s only natural
Better than the stuff cooked up with chemicals
Hemp for victory it´s only logical
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
Lived all around the world far from my kin
Catch myself thinking time time again
I miss the green green grass of Michigan
You can´t go home boy that´s what some will say
So much has changed since you went away
Not giving up not giving in
But I´m going back to good old Michigan
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
Tired of being thought a criminal
After all it´s only natural
Better than the stuff cooked up with chemicals
Hemp for victory it´s only logical
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
I miss the green green green green grass of Michigan
I miss the green green green green grass of...Michigan

Facination feeling like a little kid
Smokin´pot what a special kind of stupid

Control freaks can´t enjoy gettin´ high
Can´t go with the flow gotta controlify
See the fear of flying in their dreary eyes
Control freaks just can´t stand (us) gettin´ high
A C G5 G *(open 1st and 2nd string and vice versa)
Twisting reality into funny little knots
Helping us connect the cosmic dots
All those worries going up in smoke

Laughing uncontrollably at my own stupid joke the kid inside awoke holy smoke
G5(open) C*(3rd fret 1st & 2nd string)

Think twice ´bout stupid things you said and did
Shifting points of view fresh perspectives

G5 C*
Don´t be tokin´ if you are afraid to move
Don´t be smokin´ if you´re afraid to change your view
Don´t try nothin´that might take you to the brink
Don´t try nothin´ that might just make you think
G5 C* x 4 harp
G5(open) C*(3rd fret 1st & 2nd string)
Smokin´pot is a special kind of stupid
Gettin´ high what a special kind of stupid

VERSE
F#m E D E
How many psychiatrist does it take to change a lightbulb
Just one that's all it takes but the lightbulb's gotta wanna change
Scary the stranger the drama the danger experience comes at a price
Wanting control resisting the flow (when) a little faith would suffice
CHORUS
A G F E
Gotta wanna change gotta wanna change got to want to change
Gotta wanna change gotta wanna change got to want to change
VERSE
F#m E D E
Five long years rinse repeat round and round who's right
Hearts and minds set on victory everybody loses the fight
Take care of ourselves take care of each other in our own twisted way
Some call it love I'll call it a draw time to call it a day
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
BREAK
B* (*pOOr mE cHORD) A* G* F#*
Change is death change is life two edges of the same knife
Baby is born baby grows baby forgets baby knows
Change is love change is loss who is to say who´s the boss?
Prepare for the worst hope for the best all Chachi in charge of the rest
(E chord)
CHORUS
A (50%) G F E
I don't wanna change but I gotta change God I need a change
I don't wanna change but I gotta change God damn I need a change
(75%)
Gotta wanna change gotta wanna change got to want to change
(150%)
Gotta wanna change gotta wanna change got to want to change

White Guy
02:48
|

I would tell you what I think but I´m just a white man
Callled me a Polack growing up in Michigan
Hitler killed my family don´t call me nazi Aryan
Gotta work on my tan cuz I´m just a white man
Really not complaining if I do they´ll blame me
Counsel me and cancel me do their best to shame me
Social reconditioning tone me down and tame me
I´m really not complaining if I do they´ll blame me
I oppressed my older sisters as they picked on me
I oppress those who say I have no culture no ethnicity
Those who think they´re without sin quick to cast the stone
Call me racist call me bigot if I dare to moan
So quick to cast stones
Life has been so easy cuz I am a white guy
My skin has no color I got no vagi-gi
I´m guilty of oppression, priviledge genocide
Born the way I identify I am just a white guy
So you´re looking for a fight you came to the wrong place
I´m a lover not a fighter I love you why the long face
Human rights for everyone no matter things like sex or race
So you´re looking for a fight you came to the wrong place
I am just a white guy
I am just a white guy
I am just a white guy
Let´s get together and feel all right

Inch by inch give up the fight
Suckin´ down those Marlboro lights
Slowly day crawls into night
Forget about what´s wrong or right
No one here to hear me holler
Plug-in electronic squalor
Holds me tight by my blue collar
One more day and one less dollar
Touch me now and see ya later
Just a crooning complicator
Life is cruel but I don´t hate her
I´m Luke Skywalker she´s my Vader
BREAK
That´s all well and that´s all good
Least of all did all I could
Peter Pan plays Robin Hood
Poor me so misunderstood
My heart´s a dove my mind´s a hawk
LIfe I love the plank I walk
Chicken Little hear me squawk
Damn sure aint no one to talk
You don´t get me I don´t care
Little children stop and stare
Smell my bad blood like a bear
Shall we play some truth or dare?
BREAK
In God´s image pretty bad
God damn I just became my dad
Oh shit he´s dead don´t be sad
Just think of all the fun he had
Maybe there´s some higher place
Some greater good some humane race
I wouldn´t know but just in case
Faith and dreams of mystic grace
Nights are short and days are long
Keep the peace hit the bong
Hum away this stupid song (´bout)
Human rights and human wrongs

SELFISH JEAN 2022
(The) best damn curves money could buy
Baby blue contacts in her eyes
Bleach blonde hair and a year-round tan
Huntin´ for a six-million-dollar man
Miniskirt mini top loved to dance.
Gave the guys a flash of London and France
Pretended not to notice all those pryin´ eyes
Feelin´ pretty proud though she was really shy
Her name was Jean Selfish Jean
A love machine Selfish Jean
Never quite got her m-r-s- degree
All those years at university
Those boys were nice but not for her
She saw the Ivy League and pedigrees in her future
Less than a grand in her savings account
When drinks are free who cares to count
She´d land that guy they´d have some fun
Find a good lawyer when it was done
Her name was Jean Selfless Jean
Long and lean Selfless Jean
BRIDGE
She met him outside a bar
Luggin in his amp and his guitar (she said)
Call me baby if you ever get real far
Jesus Christ I could use a superstar
She wasn´t always gonna be 23
Someday she´d wither like the autumn leaves
But for now she was sexy hot as the sun
And ol´ mr. Right yeah he would come
Her name was Jean
A dancing queen
Long and lean
A love machine
Her name was Jean
Selfless Jean
My sister Jean
Her name was Jean

SHT Musik Valencia, Spain
Like the Lettermen segment from whence comes the name of this project, these are my stupid human tricks. They are simple
home recordings done almost always as a one-man band.
Mostly the songs are about the human condition, my personal trials and tribulations with inner demons and addictions, and anything else that I find interesting or amusing.
