Flying High and Free

Flying High and Free

I’m a ginger cat flying high and free
Up in the sky just her and me
The wind’s in our fur the clouds overhead
Chasing the sun where the wild hearts tread

Soaring together our love in the air
Flying to places without a care
With my Bengal queen the world feels right
In this little plane we own the night
Over mountains tall through valleys of green

Every turn we take it feels like a dream
Together we laugh as the engines purr
In our cockpit love nothing can deter
Soaring together our love in the air
Flying to places without a care

With my Bengal queen the world feels right
In this little plane we own the night

The Ballad of Teddycat and Bengal Love

AKA… Why I can’t make kittens anymore

Oh Teddycat you roamed so free
A ginger flame for all to see
Through alleyways and moonlit nights
You danced beneath the silver light

[Verse 2]
She was a queen so wild and rare
Spotted coat with regal flair
Her gaze entranced your daring heart
A fleeting love that lit the dark

[Chorus]
But now the stars have turned their gaze
The playful nights
A fleeting phase
A litter born from love unplanned
Now fate will guide the surgeon’s hand

[Verse 3]
Oh Bengal queen you left your mark
In Teddy’s soul
A blazing spark
But consequence has come to call
And shadows loom
The curtain falls

[Bridge]
The vet awaits
The end draws near
Teddycat feels a twinge of fear
Yet through the haze of what must be
He purrs
Resigned to destiny

[Chorus]
But now the stars have turned their gaze
The playful nights
A fleeting phase
A litter born from love unplanned
Now fate will guide the surgeon’s hand

Wheels on the Crumblin’ Road

(Verse 1)
I was king of the pedals, the crowd used to roar,
Flew down them highways, left ‘em beggin’ for more.
From the Rockies to Jersey, my name lit the sky,
A champion racer, damn I really could fly.
But the truth caught me spinnin’, like a chain off its gear,
Took my medals, my glory, left me drownin’ in tears.

(Chorus)
Now I’m ridin’ alone, on this crumblin’ road,
With a heart full of tears and a heavy load.
No finish line waitin’, no victory call,
Just the wind and the wheels where the shadows fall.
Oh, I’m searchin’ for peace, for a spark in the dark,
Ridin’ miles and miles to heal this broken heart.

(Verse 2)
They called me a hero, put my face on the news,
Small-town dreamer in red, white, and blues.
But I cheated the game, thought I’d never get caught,
Sold my soul for a crown, and it cost what I got.
Now the towns turn their backs, and the women grow cold,
My story’s a whisper, just a tale that’s been told.

(Bridge)
Late at night, when the stars cut like glass,
I hear the ghosts of my victories past.
The cheers of the faithful, the love that I lost,
The weight of my sins, and the bridges I crossed.
I pump these old pedals through the rain and the pain,
Hopin’ somewhere out there, I’ll feel clean again.

(Verse 3)
There’s a diner at dawn where the truckers don’t stare,
I sip bitter coffee, feel the weight of despair.
But the road keeps on callin’, like a hymn I can’t quit,
Each mile’s a battle, but I’m carved out of grit.
Maybe redemption’s a town I won’t see,
But I’ll ride ‘til my legs give out under me.

(Chorus)
Now I’m ridin’ alone, on this crumblin’ road,
With a heart full of tears and a heavy load.
No finish line waitin’, no victory call,
Just the wind and the wheels where the shadows fall.
Oh, I’m searchin’ for peace, for a spark in the dark,
Ridin’ miles and miles to heal this broken heart.

(Bridge)

Adios, AOC & Ilhan

Adiós Amigos

[Verse 1]
Ilhan oh Ilhan where did you go
Dancing in the moonlight but the tide said no
Your dreams sailed away on a paper canoe
Alexandria cried but the sea laughed too

[Prechorus]
Coconuts whisper
They’re spilling the tea
The palm trees are swaying
They gossip ’bout we

[Chorus]
Adiós amigos
The ship’s leaving town
The anchors are heavy
We’re sinking down
Adiós amigos
The tide doesn’t wait
Pack up the drama
It’s time to vacate

[Verse 2]
AOC AOC your speeches so bright
But now the stars giggle in the tropical night
The parrots repeat what the headlines scream
The mangoes are sour
The guava lost its gleam

[Bridge]
Ilhan
Alexandria
What do we do
Deportation conga
It’s coming for you
In Somalian: Waxaan ku ordayaa badda dhexdeeda (I run through the ocean)
In Spanish: Pero el sol nunca olvida (But the sun never forgets)

[Chorus]
Adiós amigos
The ship’s leaving town
The anchors are heavy
We’re sinking down
Adiós amigos
The tide doesn’t wait
Pack up the drama
It’s time to vacate
