Movie Star Boy - lyrics

I'm prolific ha!  I think it's the heat wave and a specific type of "sun high", which I love...the lazy hazy crazy days of summer.  A song I wrote today - a true story.  I've thought about this boy...where did he go?  These lyrics are influenced by my some of my favorite musicians, Pink Floyd being way up there.  I think the style is all my own - see if you think a song is in here, in the lines.  Happy Birthday Rick Wright, way up there.

As always, no one try to take these lyrics as I will find you with a little help from the Neptune Pink Floyd  forum, thanks.

Movie Star Boy

Movie star boy, movie star boy
Where is the joy?
Out in your yard
Your black and white dog
Standing on guard.

This is your life
Your common-law wife
Is laughing outside
Your daughter turned one
I know you  tried
Movie star boy.

Last summer you sang
With friends at the shore
You had a guitar
Your skin was so tanned
I walked past, you smiled
Angel faced child
Movie star boy, movie star boy.

And now you stand wearing jeans
In your rented yard
Your shiny black hair
Your face worn with care
Should be on the big screen
Should really be seen
So young and ignored
Restless and bored.

Why don’t you just run
To Hollywood town?
This girl brought you down
Your daughter will know
Just send them the dough
I live down the street
I can’t understand
Movie star boy, movie star boy
Why can’t you see
What it means to be free?

We don't know anything

Today I woke up with the feeling of how little we know about our world.  Really we don't know anything.  Think of any topic...like birds flying.  What are they doing and why do all species have different sounds?  Is each frequency, each wavelength part of a huge pattern in the world?  I think so.  What are the seasons about, and why are we here?  We don't know, nobody does.  We can believe and go by our intuition...that's all.  I know love feels good.  Love isn't upsetting and unhealthy - that's not love imo...I don't know what feelings of unhappiness are about - but those feelings are not about love.

I wrote more lyrics at the beach a few days ago.  Actually, Jupiter entered Leo on that day...but I felt like it was Mars.  This one is about someone who existed in an alternate reality and we could not go on.  If I have true love, it's not like this little rhyme I made up in a childlike moment.

Mars Enters Leo

You came to me as I sat
On my throne of sand,
The hottest day ever
In the land.

I could not see your eyes –
The sun was too bright
And besides, they were shaded
And framed just like night.

We talked about nothing
Yet everything was there
Hidden and showing
Like my hat hid my hair

And beach curls blonde
Fell in wet strands around
My listening ears
As I sat on the ground.

But we talked about nothing
I wouldn’t go there
Back to the time
When I really cared.

Blame it on the lion
And the planet of war
Combined together
On a sandy shore.

Songs and solar return

Hello, welcome to my new year!  As the title above suggests, astronomy is involved and I just had a birthday a few days ago.  I've joined Neptune Pink Floyd - the newsletter and forum.  Having been a member on various forums throughout the last 12 or more years, I can honestly say so far the Pink Floyd forum members are some of the best fans I've encountered.  They are educated, articulate and most of all - they love the music.

Here's David Gilmour videos from back in the early days.  Oh my lord - he's positively angelic!! Something I'll refrain from saying over at the forum...want to be professional ha!






I wrote two new songs at the beach - copyrighted by me and people out there don't try to use them because I have the Pink Floyd forum to back me...the lyrics are mine!  For DG...Piscean (with moon in Aries same degree as my Aries moon)


The Difference Is Night And Day

Come on sun in your lonely dance,
Come on full moon in my midnight trance –
I want to see my way in the dark
In the light, in the dark, in the light,
In the dark
All in one day – what can I say?

I want to walk with him in the park –
Mix up daydreams with dreams in my sleep
Enter my heart with secrets I keep
Open my mind with probes made of love
I want to see what happens above –
In the light, in the dark, in the light
In the dark
All in one day
All in one day
What can I say?
All in a day.

If we see Venus and lightning strikes –
I can’t tell daydreams from dreams at night
Don’t tell me the difference –
I don’t want to know
My love has to go
Where I want to go
All in one day
What can I say?

What can I say?

Wings of Glass

When a slow boat passes
Near metallic shores
And nine seagulls stand
On silver sand
With white feathers blown
In a warm south breeze
That’s where I’ve known
Clear memories.

When sharp sounds drift
On wings of glass
And blue meets blue
And love is new
Through sunglasses
I see your dark shape
And I’m still thinking
Of love we make.

When a sailboat passes
Near glitter shores
And nine seagulls stand
On silver sand.

A new song for you!

Happy Canada Day, all you stereotyped plaid shirted, beer swillin' & champagne snobs regarding Canadian literature, we have much to be thankful for...like...er...um...ahem...er...Just joking!  Yes, we have several good things about Canada.  We know how to fight against oil pipelines - but this time let's not cave in to pressures of the East...and I mean the Far East, too. I don't want to think about it.

Instead, here's a new song I wrote this aft at the beach, in between swims.  Most of my inspiration is at the beach in summer.  See if you like it.  My strength is my whimsy.  This one is dedicated to Floyd, and to David's Strat guitars.


  Aliens – Alliance

Come on now sweet sorcerer
Your muses we will not ignore
You climb into my dreams at night –
You know, my angel, that’s all right
You hang around my bed with me –
And tell me ancient history

Of crystal caves
And men of stone
And women kind
I’m not alone.

Come on, love, and tell me more
With that song I so adore
I won’t ask you anything
In case it sounds like just a fling –
Your hold on me is more than life
A thousand times of man and wife

Beaches pale sand
And water waves
I feel you’re here
In countless ways.

You hang around this world with me
And maybe we’re a tragedy
Let’s just play a favourite song
And let them say we don’t belong
I won a pillow on a website
So climb into my dreams  tonight.
