SUNSHINE HILL
Pack up your picnic pack your cares away
I've already called and told them you're not coming to work today
Can't you hear the morning calling?
Come on out to play
We're on our way to Sunshine Hill
Call your friends and I'll call mine
You bring the music and I'll bring the wine
We'll be laughing and we'll be singing walking side by side
There's only one cloud formation hanging up in the sky
And it's pointing out the way to Sunshine Hill
Bring your body and bring your mind
We'll rub them together and make them shine
Some are lying in the grass some decorate the tress
Some roll up and down the hill and some just sit and sneeze
Until we all get tired the sun will never go down
But we'll come back to Sunshine Hill

BABIES
Babies! Babies! Babies! Babies
Babies in the cradle
Babies on the floor
Babies on the ceiling
Babies out the door
Babies in the water
Babies in the sky
Rocking in the tree tops
Babies multiply
Babies in the antique store
Babies on the roof
Babies in the jailhouse
Babies on the loose
Babies at the microphone
Babies in the wings
Babies sitting all by themselves
Thinking of baby things
Babies! Babies! Babies! Babies
Baby constellations
In the baby galaxies
Forming baby universes
Making baby yous and mes
Babies as idea
Babies in the womb
Baby in the flowers
Babies gone too soon
Babies reach for candles
Baby bearded gnomes
Babies in the bushes
Babies without homes
Babies on the down low
Babies on the sly
Four and twenty babies
Baked up in a pie
Babies! Babies! Babies!

GOLDEN SOCKS
Your Golden Socks and your cotton oxen
Are standing still in silhouette stillness
Grazing in groups on the green grassy hilltops
Somewhere near we hear the sound of a church clock
Sadly recording with each little tick tock the passing of moments we'll barely remember
They say it's September when we start to look back
I don't ask questions I don't know why
Every day I wonder if I should laugh or cry
And Sally gets mad if you don't like her new songs
But they all sound exactly
The same as here old ones
You bite your tongue when you just want to tell her
Or maybe sit her down and show her some new chords
Or maybe just see if she wants to try out a capo
I don't ask questions I don't know why
Every day I wonder if I should laugh or cry
Just like a halo of bumble bees
Buzzing the top of a tobacco tree
Tired and weary right down to their bones
A hundred will drop dead for every sweet drop of honey
Just like Humpty Dumpty
And here comes Nancy smiling and happy
Light radiates from wherever she's standing
Down-home and loyal articulate and wise
Beckoning you with joy and surprise
Reminding you of what you're here for
I don't ask questions I don't know why
Every day I wonder if I should laugh or cry

THE PIPER IS GONE
There's a silver jacket on the back of a chair
The same old one that you sat on
Tell me why'd you leave it there
And there's a secret message written on the wall
Saying the pied piper is gone
Tell me why'd you write that there
Boweevils and Botangles
Bojingles and Bojangles
Cuties and bananas
Car keys and sunglasses
Are moldering in the bowl
Tell me why'd you leave them there
My favorite glass lies shattered on the floor
The broom and dustpan still hanging on the door
Tell me why you'd leave it there
Standing on a chair trying to reach the stars
When I used to walk to heaven up the bedroom stairs
Why'd you leave me here
Tell me why'd you leave me
The Piper's left and gone away
