DORA by Tom Jensen
Nicknamed Dora the explorer
For being such a horror
You showed me a good time
Then made me lose my mind, yeah
If this squirrel had a nut
He’d store it in your butt
Don’t you turn your back to me
Before I’ve gained your trust
Once they kick your dick in the dirt
All the money in the world
Won’t buy back your self-worth
Or take away the hurt
You can try to hide the fact
That your whole soul got jacked
But there’s no use trying to catch
What has slipped right through the cracks
No more fight left in the dog
No more corn left on the cob
Looks like the thief has just been robbed
And he knows the cops in on the job
Seems you don’t know…
What you’ve been missing
Until what was working…
Suddenly isn’t
Try changing your mind
While you’re serving time
In a solitary prison
Not bound by chains
Though what remains
Seems utterly insufficient
Alone at sea
Drifting hopelessly
Yeah, and you call it fishing…
Save that worried mind
Not for what you’re afraid to find…
But rather on what you’ve been missing
Take some advice from me
To help yourself break free
From this invisible prison
Just to catch a break
You’ll just have to take
Something when it isn’t given
Embracing heartache
Was your greatest mistake
That you keep on reliving
In this game you’re playing
And not participating
That don’t lead to winning!
MONUMENTS By Tom Jensen
Time… is always of the essence…
Though we don’t know
if it’s always been present…
Oh, but of course it’s a gift…
Well, I guess that depends
On what you do with it
When it’s yours…
Was it something significant?
Though we know that sometimes
there is elegance
even in remedial chores…
It’s who you’re with
And not what you do
That’s led me here
Standing in front of you
And beside you –
Always behind you
Because you know
You’ve let me live
Right inside of you…
For year after year
You’ve been there
To say you care
I think of time as a monument
A shrine to the moments
that we’ve shared
Time… is always of the essence…
Though we don’t know
if it’s always been present…
Oh, but of course it’s a gift…
I love you more than
Classic Rock n’ Roll
The last time I felt like this
Was so many years ago…
It’s who you’re with
And not what you do
That’s led me here
Standing in front of you
For year after year
You’ve been there
To say you care
I think of time as a monument
A shrine to the moments
that we’ve shared
DISCIPLE OF DIRT By Tom Jensen
Just what will break the spell?
So many claim to know
Yet so few tell
Why is that so?
Maybe it's just as well?
To just let it go...
Ah what the hell?
There's only one way to know
Whether to buy or sell
On which road to go
There's only one man in the know
Though long ago he fell
So what's a disciple of dirt
Like me to do?
No one left to follow
No one to lead me
A blind detective
In a world full of clues
Only able to be captured
No one to free me
So many choices
Yet so little time to choose
I want to hide away
Where no one can see me
So much to gain
But even more to lose
I'll rest in the safety that
No one else will ever be me
So what if my book of poetry
Lies dusty on the shelf
My inspiration's been lost and found
By someone else
My dreams about tomorrow?
Ah who the hell even cares?
Every day we all take
A good look in the mirror
And wonder if it's time
To face our fears:
Are we burned up?
Are we burned out?
Or maybe there's no flame at all
With no desire to climb
There's no risk to fall
So we stick to safe ground
Like a hamster on a wheel
Lacking love and hate
So there's nothing left to feel.......
LOVELY INFINITY by Tom Jensen
Have a lovely infinity
Were the last words
you said to me
A little piece of poetry
Now there's a lot in a little
A lot of thought in that riddle
That's the reason
behind the rhyme
When your ears hear
something pleasing
As gears start turning
in your mind
Something that'll get you thinking
Forget or forgive a problem
Other than smoking and drinking
We know that's not gonna solve it…
I don't have a drinking problem
I've got a drinking solution
I live in a world
With so much pollution
I live with it in my blood
As dirt runs through my veins
I pour it in my cup
And I drink it up like rain
I don't have a drinking problem
I've got a drinking solution
I tried to give it up
But I figured what's the use?
If and when I put it down
I'll just pick up something else
I've learned from my past by now
I just can't control myself
My heart is beating far too fast
Yet my love is for a false prophet
I aimed for first but finished last
Now I'm hooked on getting off it
I started drinking
to drown my sorrows
But I gave it up
When trouble learned to swim
I treaded water for so long
I never noticed how deep I was in
I've chosen some wrong selections
So don't ask me for any directions
I can only tell you where not to go
I can't explain the ways of the world
I can't show you where to dive for pearls
I guess there are just some things
You have to know
`
I keep my eyes peeled for angels
While I'm living in the world of sin
I can't tell you where I'm going
Only where I've been
ON THE ROCKS By Tom Jensen
(for female vocalist)
When he calls you up
You drop everything
As time itself stops
When the telephone rings
He inspires the love song
You’re whole body sings
The moment that he talks
Your heart begins to soar
For he gives you wings
But somewhere
it all went wrong
Along with
so many other things
Now you’re cold as ice
and on the rocks
Told yourself
you don’t care anymore
Doesn’t matter
how many presents he brings
Heart wrenching pain
is now your companion,
your refrain
Your rock of Gibraltar,
your new ball and chain
Feel like a jilted bride
left all alone in the rain
As all your ideals
have just been
flushed down the drain
When what you found
at the altar was just
a crutch and a cane
Yet ever since you let him go
You’ve longed to return
To the face, the arms,
you used to know
Guess that’s just
how this story goes
Now you want him back
But what’s inside
you won’t let it show
Yes, ever since
you let him leave
One single memory burns
One that changed
your previous beliefs
You dry your eyes
and hide your grief
You realize the tables turned
Your heart's been stolen
and he’s the thief
Heart wrenching pain
is now your companion,
your refrain
Your rock of Gibraltar,
your new ball and chain
Feel like a jilted bride
left all alone in the rain
As all your ideals
you’ve just flushed
down the drain
When what you found
at the altar was just
a crutch and a cane
CAN'T HAVE THAT by Tom Jensen
The latest polls show
That when the people say "yes"
Our leaders say "no"
I was taught that it was us versus them
Now I’ve learned that them is us
But I’m not talking about your Average Joe
Just of those who try to buy our trust
Here’s a list of things the peasants want
Well surely they can’t have all that!
Just give them these stale loaves of bread
And then we’ll raise the tax!!!!
Society at large...Oh, we're not too pleased
Politics to the core...has become diseased
All I need is one believer
To inspire me to dig just a little bit deeper
Society at large...Oh, we're not too pleased
Politics to the core... has become diseased
All they need is one good reason
To get me off of this charge of treason
Society at large... Oh, we're not too pleased
Politics to the core... has become diseased
When I hear the word lobbyist
My right hand reaches for my gun
When it comes time for talking politics
People get paid to keep us dumb
