Old Brown Banana

I had a ripe fresh banana
You had an old old brown banana
You took my ripe fresh banana
And left me your old brown banana
I do not know how you thought
Or even if you thought at all
That I would not know the difference
Between a ripe fresh banana
And an old brown banana
Maybe you have bananas
Instead of a brain
Mushy gushy mashy and smashy
That old brown bananas gonna deteriorate someday
I had a ripe fresh banana
You had an old old brown banana
You took my ripe fresh banana
And left me your old brown banana
I do not know how you thought
Or even if you thought at all
That I would not know the difference
Between a ripe fresh banana
And an old brown banana
Maybe you have bananas
Instead of a brain
Mushy gushy mashy and smashy
That old brown bananas gonna deteriorate someday

A Circle

I think wise I'm living inside a circle
Lots of love I'm living inside a circle
Why am I here?
I don't know
Surely not to live in fear and pain
I think wise I'm living outside a circle
Lots of love I'm living outside a circle
As above, so below
As below, so above
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Why am I here?
I don't know
Surely not to live in fear and pain
I think wise I'm living inside a circle
Lots of love I'm living outside a circle
A circle
A circle

Material Possessions
01:44
|

|
Everybody has material possessions
And everybody wants material possessions
But in the grand scheme of things
It doesn't really matter
It's all gonna disappear anyway
Some will say yes
Some will say no
I'll say I really don't know
Uh-oh!
Everybody has material possessions
And everybody wants material possessions
I like what I have
I like it a lot
But if it goes away I understand
Impermanence happens
It happens a lot
No one is free from this lot
Everybody has material possessions
And everybody wants material possessions
If only we'd see
That we can share
Then greed would be like an ingrown hair!
This song too
Will disappear
But for now we'll share some cheer!
Everybody has material possessions
And everybody wants material possessions!

I am living a dream
Nothing is as it seems
My dream is real
My dream's unreal
I'd like to dream with you
I am directing my dream
Everything is as it seems
I dream of love
I dream of life
I dream of happiness with you
Let's become aware
Let's, oh, let's care
For all of life
I am dreaming many dreams
They are bursting at the seams
They keep me wise
They keep me kind
They reach further than time
Let's become aware
Let's, oh, let's care
For all of life
