cats and dogs
by
James
if
i were a dog i'll bark all night long and wake up the neighbors
(animal
sound)
if
i were a cat across the street i would say meow
(animal
sound)
tell
me why, tell me why can't it be
if
i were a cow i would say moo to people like you
(animal
sound)
cause
you've been bad, made me sad, i'm going mad
tell
me why, tell me why can't it be
if
i were a fish swimming in the sea what a joy to be
(animal
sound)
if
i were a king to you i'll bring anything
tell
me why, tell me why
tell
me why, tell me why can't it be

Umalis
ako ng bahay ko naghanap ng trabaho
Nandito
ako sa Quiapo, raket dito
Bote,
diario, bakal, tubo
Umalis
ako ng bahay ko naghanap ng pangako
Nandito
ako sa Delano, galing barrio
Pitas
ubas, gulay, prutas
Pagkat
parating tagkulang
Pitong
anak ang iniwan
Kinalat
sa buong mundo
Ang
pawis at dugo
Umalis
ako ng bahay ko naghanap ng trabaho
Nandito
ako sa Saudi, Hongkong, Japan
Umalis
ako ng bahay ko naghanap ng pangako
Nandito
ako sa Denmark, Italy, France
Nandito
ako...
Umalis

Bantay

Drama
by
James
i
know its gonna be forever
you
and me are gonna be together
but
when we she closes her eyes she thinks of me
i'm
not the man i used to be (hey, hey)
i wish
i wasn't angry at you
when
you couldn't find where you put my right shoe
i
wish i was a friend to you
i'd
paint your life in shades of blue
i
wish i wasn't nagging you
cause
deep inside im in love with you
now
i walk alone in pain
you
were my seatmate on the train
things
will never be
don't
matter much to me
Soda
and Chips
by
Alex
I
saw you standing on the corner
with
your soda and chips
I
came over and said hi
You
smiled at me and you gave me
your
soda and chips
Blew
me a kiss and then said bye
Why
did you buy
food
you'll never ever try
Ba
ba ba bye, ba ba bye bye bye.

Faces

Cool
air, chill night
Heartfires
burn warm tonight
It's
just right
Tonight
Gems
in flight, cold as ice
Orion's
belt shines bright tonight
Moonlight,
starlight
Perfect
moments
Quite
delights
It's
just right
Tonight
1+1=3
by
James
a
hundred hours on the phone was something new to me
a
thousand thoughts we shared of birth, school, work
and
eternity
you
made me comprehend that life is good if you let it be
still
i try to ask myself why one plus one is equal to three
each
day i wake up
i
see you my darling
its
a wonderful day
don't
let it slip away
makes
me wish you were here with me
back
to main
