Stars/Time/Bubbles/Love Lyrics
BUBBLES
(Chris Dedrick/The Lamplighter Publishing Company/SOCAN)
Blowin’ bubbles outta the window
Chewin’ bubblegum and blowin’ big bubbles
Gettin’ gettin’ ridda ridda all my troubles,
Watchin’ the tadpoles glubba, glubba in the puddles
Soap bubbles carry my dreams up high
Bubble gum kinda keeps my heart from gettin’ heavy and cryin’
Ma ‘n’ Pa are arguin’ again,
today I lost my best friend
The kitty has a little cold,
‘n ‘ grammama is getting older
My tummy has a little pain,
‘n’ when does Jesus come again?
Blowin’ bubbles outta the window
Chewin’ bubblegum and blowin’ big bubbles
Gettin’ gettin’ ridda ridda all my troubles,
Watchin’ the tadpoles glubba, glubba in the puddles
Soap bubbles carry my dreams up high
Bubble gum kinda keeps my heart from gettin’ heavy and cryin’
Blowin’ bubbles outta the window
Chewin’ bubblegum and blowin’ big bubbles
Gettin’ gettin ridda ridda all my troubles,
Watchin’ the tadpoles glubba, glubba in the puddles
Soap bubbles carry my dreams up high
Bubble gum kinda keeps my heart from gettin’ heavy and cryin’
KIJE’S OUIJA
(Chris Dedrick/The Lamplighter Publishing Company/SOCAN)
There was a gentleman from way up north and Kije was his name.
And he got strange answers from a magic board ‘cause Ouija was his game.
Kije’s Ouija, Kije’s Ouija Board
Kije’s Ouija, gee, we should’ve believed, believed before
I took my favorite lover way up north,
we packed our boots and skis
And we found as a lodging Kije’s magic house-
there he sat with a board upon his knees.
Kije’s Ouija, Kije’s Ouija Board
Kije’s Ouija, gee, we should’ve believed, believed before
Then he asked us would we like to sit and learn about magic,
My Ouija board will set you straight on all that’s happy or tragic.
We sat right down to scrutinize the weird old indicator
Neither did we understand or believe it.. till later
Kije’s Ouija, Kije’s Ouija Board
Kije’s Ouija, gee, we should’ve believed, believed before
It told us that some wise old angel had prepared for us a special treat…
..that everyone who kicked a little dog would surely lose his feet.
And everyone who shook his fist in anger soon would be shaking in bed,
And every single time a curse was said
someone’s tongue would surely drop from his head.
Now many more like this the angel will send, but you could do yourself much worse.
Just push a couple buttons, let your favorite bombs completely cover over the earth.
Now the angel’s curse has come and gone, but everyone knew that.
We didn’t need a Ouija board to give us any clue
that the way we lived was far from right,
the first curse came to reckon.
No one dares to ask old Kije ‘bout the second.
Kije’s Ouija, Kije’s Ouija Board
Kije’s Ouija, gee, we should’ve believed, believed before.
STAY OFF YOUR FROWN
(Chris Dedrick/The Lamplighter Publishing Company/SOCAN)
Stay off your frown, baby
I’m gonna be a long time around, baby
Ya got no reason for downs, baby
You better get on off of your frown
Yours in peace I’d like to be
Gimme a chance to make you happy
I know livin’ together ain’t easy
But a smile or two could set us free.
Stay off your frown, baby
I’m gonna be a long time around, baby
Ya got no reason for downs, baby
You better get on off of your frown
I’d like to hear you sweetly whisperin’ soft to me, kind lady
You know, why should we try to be lonely
when a kiss could taste us happily.
Stay off your frown, baby
I’m gonna be a long time around, baby
Ya got no reason for downs, baby
You better get on off of your frown
Frowns can drown your love sound
Stay off your frown, baby
I’m gonna be a long time around, baby
Ya got no reason for downs, baby
You better get on off of your frown
STARLIGHT
(Chris Dedrick/The Lamplighter Publishing Company/SOCAN)
Starlight, liking you and me
In a cloud of milk, in a marble sea
See the smooth, and listen to the light;
You can choose a heaven in the night.
For a star has touched your heart
and given mine a start
Under starlight, liking you and me
In a cloud of milk, in a marble sea
Thank the sky, and whisper to the wind;
Gladly die…now I’ve touched your sacred skin.
Star, starlight you ever send
Love, if night could never end
Under starlight.
Starlight, liking you and me
In a cloud of milk, in a marble sea
Thank the sky, and whisper to the wind;
Gladly die…now I’ve touched your sacred skin.
Star, starlight you ever send
Love, if night could never end
Under starlight.
I’M A YOGI
(Chris Dedrick/The Lamplighter Publishing Company/SOCAN)
I’m a yogi, and I’m doin’ my yoga
And the world looks better standin’ on my head
Touch the natural earth
Have a happy rebirth
Be a yogi, a yogi
Pick a way, any way to grow old and look it
Take whatever bird of life you’ve fattened up and cook it
Buy a pretty flowery flowing dress
And get yourself some makeup
To cover up the aging body
You’d rather not try to wake up
I’m a yogi, and I’m doin’ my yoga
And the world looks better standin’ on my head
Touch the natural earth
Have a happy rebirth
Be a yogi, a yogi
Think with me, and meditate and touch the real earth
Lose yourself, reincarnate love for all you’re worth
To get in tune with mother earth
We’ve got to keep her blue and green
Kill a flower, kill a fish
And kill a river, what’s it mean?
Save a dollar, while you kill your brothers down the stream,
Smother up the aging land
You’d rather not try to wake up.
I’m a yogi, and I’m doin’ my yoga
And the world looks better standin’ on my head
Touch the natural earth
Have a happy rebirth
Be a yogi, a yogi
THAT’S ALL PEOPLE
(Chris Dedrick/The Lamplighter Publishing Company/SOCAN)
That’s all, people,
No more from Prospect Avenue
That’s all people,
You can’t buy me for another year or two
Sing…you could sing your heart away,
Dance…on the edge of a leaf of paper,
You can live and cry and buy and take my life away.
Stars, Time, Bubbles and Love are Vapor.
That’s all, people,
No more from Prospect Avenue
That’s all people,
You can’t buy me for another year or two
Sing…I will sing a silent melody
Dance…I will move within my papa’s smile;
I will live and cry and create a newer harmony
Stars, Time, Bubbles and Love
are behind my trial.
That’s all, people,
No more from Prospect Avenue
That’s all people,
You can’t buy me for another year or two
That’s all people.
