1.
Well I’ve held hands with Radha In the east hills at dawn But, on the coattails of Krishna Isn’t where I belong That was before Ni Lamani Though the child is still young Now I’ve become Mouse Lee And my end has begun So if you go down to Vrindavan My friend you’ve gone far Where Krishna and Radha have gone Kusum Sarovar
2.
I miss the fingers of love Wiping the tears from my cheek Soft is the down of the dove Please let us not speak the name Just as luster rusts, we return to dust I miss the ones I’ve never met I miss the ones I won’t forget I miss how time kisses the dawn How I do miss those who are gone I miss the colours of fall Greens and grays of the rain Sad as a thimble is small To leave without saying goodbye credits

Gray of morning, is inspiring In the House by the sea just before the sun Living bores me, life is tiring Fortunately, endings eventually come Should we all sleep, as the walls weep We in turn owe them gifts of chamomile Once the tea steeps, let us all drink From the breasts of dreams as infantiles I invite in, other Indian Share my bed, my dreams and our recipes Some are knapping, obsidian Alvin’s Arrows quiver and rest with me Gray of morning, is inspiring In the House by the Sea just before the sun Living bores me, live is tiring Fortunately, ending eventually come

Choking Vine 05:38
I don’t believe in time, though I believe I’ll hold your hand in mine, before I leave Tomorrow there will come, a ship of brass With room for only one, and sails made of stained glass There grows in a bell jar, a choking vine With nothing for to mar, can only pine We’re swallowed by the day, and by the year The pendulum sways, there’s nothing left to fear I been in bed with thieves, of broken hearts And as the doves will grieve, when torn apart I’ll miss you once you’re gone, but until then Your memory is fond, yet my heart is pending I don’t believe in time, though I believe I’ll hold your hand in mine, before I leave Tomorrow there will come, a ship of brass With room for only one, and sails made of stained glass

Prince Vic 04:47
Prince Vic’s interview, Prince Vic’s cologne Prince Vic is onto you, Prince Vic is alone Prince Vic is known for Prince Vic’s quirks But, buttons are missing from Prince Vics’ white shirts And I’ve got bad news for you darling Prince Vic is going home The gesture you made was charming But, Prince Vic is leaving alone Victor is gone, Prince Vic remains Right is wrong, Prince Vic complains And in Prince Vics’ parade, Prince Vic was hurt Now buttons are missing from Prince Vics’ white shirts And I’ve got bad news for you darling Prince Vic is going home The gesture you made was charming But, Prince Vic is leaving alone Alvin arrived at Prince Vics’, parade While one thought crossed through his mind He said I’ll shoot down Vic with an arrow barrage And Mouse Lee observed from the stage
7.
Canon Beach 03:45
I wrote your name near mine They washed away with the tide And time turns us to glass But, glass breaks just as does the tide Canon Beach’s sands Are a soft as I remember your hands When I had this dream But, my dreams end with heavy sighs Canon Beach’s Sands
8.
In the elegant halls of Mr. Mouse Lee Here you will find his madness, you can’t touch a thing On the decorative walls, here you will see Ornate glasses and plastics shellac everything Life is a bore so I don’t think we’ll be staying long And when Mouse Lee dies and tears come in waves I’ll miss his quirky mouse magic, and rich cooking And when Mouse Lee lies in some unmarked grave In a quaint pine casket, I think we’ll sing Life is a bore so I don’t think we’ll be staying long Never forgotten the magic of Mr. Mouse Lee
9.
Between what is not and is Something dies where nothing lives Disappearing sail and mast Mirror and the Hourglass Vanquished by the sieving sand Seconds hold the minute’s hand Where go all the moments passed Mirror and the Hourglass Into the reflective maze Fix your stare, watch your gaze Motions your mime reenacts Mirror and the Hourglass Pull the key out in reverse Hide it in tomorrow’s purse Sharpened swords, blades of grass Mirror and the Hourglass Comb your hair so subtly For you may end violently So, bend your neck but, not too fast Mirror and the Hourglass Neither hurry nor delay Where you’ve been, where you will stay When the curtain falls at last Mirror and the Hourglass
