The Greatest Ever Day

five years old a little man
presents from mom presents from dad
its the greatest ever the greatest day you ever had

put on your socks put on your shoes
take a walk around the zoo
hear the big birds squawk hear the small ones coo

and the elephants go: brrrrrrrrrah!
and the monkeis they go: ooo ooo ooo!
and the zebras go: neigh!
and you got a drum and then you played!
on the greatest ever, the greatest ever day

joshua play your drum
and when you're older buy a six string --learn to strum
for happiness sounds like purrrrr um purrrr um purrrr um purrrr um

and the elephants go: brrrrrrrrrah!
and the monkeis they go: ooo ooo ooo!
and the zebras go: neigh!
and you have a drum and so you play!
on the greatest ever, the greatest ever day

you come home late put on pj's
you and mom and dad around board games
the perfect ending to the greatest ever day

when the elephants go: brrrrrrrrrah!
and the monkeis they go: ooo ooo ooo!
and the zebras go: neigh!
and you have a drum and so you play!
on the greatest ever, the greatest ever day

What is your song idea?
For Joshua's 5th birthday he opened lots of presents in the morning and then went to the LA zoo with mom and dad. He saw monkeys, giraffes, elephants, and zebras. In the shop he got a drum and played it all the way home. Then he went to Hermosa Beach and ate bread in his favourite restaurant! At home we played board games before going to bed. 'This was the best day EVER,' he said! :-)

This Pill Is A Placebo

My head is pounding.
I blame it on the night before.
You say it's the outside.
But the outside was rather nice.

You should see the things that I can see when I look deep down inside of me.

You're mad at the country.
Who the hell gave them right?
They should all go elsewhere.
Well, elsewhere could be very nice.

There's good and there's bad.
There's an evil feeling on this land.

What is your song idea?
-You know, everybody's got some one to blame, because they don't want to look inside themselves.
-And what do you see inside yourself?
-Inside myself? I see everything. I see it all. I see the good, the bad, the evil, the whole thing.

Living Musically

when you whine
it rots my teeth
when you complain
it sounds so sweet to me
for everything is musical
when you are living musically

sing a song
or stomp your feet
in time (or not) with the beat
for everything is musical
when you're living musically

la
ooo

go ahead and bellow
or just be mellow
grab a bow and play me the cello
for everything is musical
oh everything is musical
everything is musical
when you're living musically
when you're living musically

What is your song idea?
I am a choir teacher and deal with all of the complaints and issues that students offer: "I'm tired", "I don't want to", "Why do we have to...?", "You played our notes wrong", "we don't know this song"...along with the nonstop talking about EVERYTHING unrelated (boyfriends, clothes, makeup, girls, other teachers, etc.). I would love a "quit whining and sing" type of song to play for them...or sing to them when they whine. :)

Peter, Happy Birthday To You

surprise, surprise
hold your breath and close your eyes
because this ain't book club

he's a one man british invasion
and today is a very special occasion
peter, happy birthday to you

in your youth you played pro soccer
and you sired three beautiful daughters
peter, happy birthday to you

and now your sixty growing older
gorgeous grey hair off your shoulders
laughing with your friends
who love your accent
we love your accent

because all americans love your accent
we bought you a puppy, oh wait
we actually didn't
peter, happy birthday to you
peter, happy birthday to you

What is your song idea?
My boyfriend, Peter, is turning 60 on March 28th. We are going to surprise him at a party when his daughters show up. Funny song would be great that captures the following. He is very proud of his 3 beautiful daughters (as well as his full head of gorgeous grey hair). He is a big Chelsea soccer fan and Giants football fan. He is from England (30 years ago..but hangs onto his British accent since Americans love it). His passion is golf and he wants a puppy so badly for his birthday (not happening)

Surpirise 60th birthday

Bowie

words and music by D.E. Healey

we were teen-aged and strange
impatient and afraid
all mirrors and tears and radios

we were bright we were brave
but going through a phase
all freak all cheek all chic all pose

but we played records, baby
we made tapes
we heard a voice that came
from outer space

it said "Hey, it's OK."

CHORUS:
he was the sun
he made us stars
we played pianos
we played guitars
no two of us the same
ooh how we sighed
when they asked if we knew his name

we dressed up and we danced
took an inch, a mile, a chance
all eyes all ears from head to toe

we sang our voices horse
all through the throes of youth of course
the thrilling highs the crushing lows

but we made records, baby
we made tapes
and the backing band they came
from outer space

they said "hey, it's OK!"

CHORUS


What is your song idea?
How David Bowie is awesome.
