[Lyric] Peace Is Live (Fred Small)
[Chorus] Peace is the bread we break Love is the river rolling Life is a chance we take When we make this earth our home Gonna make this earth our home [Verse 1] Feel the cool breeze blowing through the smoke and the heat Hear the gentle voices and the marching feet Singing call back the fire, draw the missiles down And we'll call this earth our...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] The Dancing Light (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] I remember her when she was shining bright Deep in her dark eyes there shone a dancing light She always used to say that she was not the marrying kind Until she met the man who changed her mind [Verse 2] He was beautiful and Lord he was strong Knew where he was going, rising like the sun And he believed in her and listened to her...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] Survivors (Fred Small)
[Speaker 1] It's definitely changed my life To be able to say to somebody else "This happened" And then to hear them say "This happened to me" [Speaker 2] It's hard for me to believe That, that my mother didn't see something in my face Or didn't know that something was going on [Speaker 1] There's still this part of me inside that says "I'm bad,...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] Jaguar (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] In the emerald cathedral In the valley of clouds In the span of the branches Two eyes keep the watch Where the hummingbird dances And the snake hesitates With the calm of command The jaguar waits [Chorus] The chain saw is whining the bulldozer roars Monkeys are screeching in flight The spires of the Arawak cut down at one blow Where will...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] Everything Possible Live (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] We have cleared off the table, the leftovers saved Washed the dishes and put them away I have told you a story and tucked you in tight At the end of your knockabout day As the moon sets its sails to carry you to sleep Over the midnight sea I will sing you a song no one sang to me May it keep you good company [Chorus] You can be anybody...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] Lifeboat (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] The times were lean, your eyes were bold And we fell right in together like beggars on the road And as the months turn into years with the passing of each day It gets harder all the time to find a reason not to stay [Chorus] And when I need a lifeboat to keep out the sea You are canvas and oak and you cradle me And when I need a lifeboat...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] Hot Frogs on the Loose (Fred Small)
[Spoken] In other news today, officials at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee have issued a warning that tiny radioactive frogs are on the loose. The fugitive amphibians are brownish-green, one-and-a-half to two inches long with skinny legs and apparently healthy, except that they can set off a Geiger counter with radiation levels...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] The Distance (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] We pass through these rooms without speaking Where the light throws a pattern of lace You say you don't know if you are leaving But there's no shadow of doubt upon your face And you tell me there is no other And I know you well enough to know it's true And well enough to know you need a lover Who can give what I never gave to...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] I Lost That Pretty Little Gal of Mine To Title IX (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] I lost that pretty little gal of mine to Title IX I found her in the stands but I lost her at the finish line She was so soft and sweet But now I find I can't compete I lost that gal of mine to Title IX [Verse 2] Sure, I put my money on Billie Jean But that damn King has taken away my queen She learned a new topspin Now she won't let me...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] Warlords (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] In a dry world in a barren world Water, people need water In the desert night around the dying light Fitful sleepers dream of water And peaceful tribes rule their lives By water And seething hordes raise their swords And kill for water In a world of drought Water is lord of all [Verse 2] In a driven world in a plastic world Oil, we drill...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] Housewarming (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] Brick and wood, mortar and plane Labor's love, a little faith You can see the structure taking form Ancient tools, a new design Taking care, taking time We've seen so many houses fall before [Chorus] We are building a house growing tall before our eyes Stone on stone watch it rise We are building a house with our hands, with our...Learn MorepopFred Small[Lyric] The Last Time I Had Autumn (Fred Small)
[Verse 1] Northfield Minnesota frost upon the plow The barley and the soybeans are at the feed lot now Leaves as dry as paper crumble 'neath my tread Colors of October like memories of the dead [Chorus] And the last time I saw autumn's fire was a thousand years ago I put my faith in autumn – seasons come seasons go And every sign of autumn now is...Learn MorepopFred Small
