UNDER A CANOPY Song lyric 076

Under a canopy, I formulate my opinion.
It may not pay dividends but it’s my own dominion.
Under a canopy, I assess my observations.
They may not be accurate but from positive derivations.

Living in a world of our own,
Peering through the foliage,
Taste another beverage

Living in a world of our own,
In my natural domain,
I intend to remain.

In my element I repose,
You’re so elegant I suppose.
It’s irrelevant who I chose.

UNDESIRABLE ALIEN Song lyric 097

Always amenable, cordial and polite,
Tactful, diplomatic, a perfect socialite,
Confidential knowledge to keep discreet
Mendacity and malicious lies could defeat
An undesirable alien who stands no chance,
A humble man segregated by circumstance.

Because of the system contempt that it breeds,
Peaceful co-existence between races and creeds
Relies on reappraisal to keep the peace.
We wonder will hostilities ever cease.

Crestfallen since disaster struck
Always feeling down on his luck
Persecuted sporadically, he doesn’t belong.
It makes no difference when love comes along.

UNINTENTIONALLY INACCESSIBLE Song lyric 071

Bone china ornament placed
On a polished teak cabinet,
Family heirloom and pride
Of place, valuable trinket.

Free spirit haunting the universe
Realises its existence.
Tormented, separated
By tantalising distance.

Love seems internationally quite acceptable.
We’re both unintentionally inaccessible.
