high on wax

topic posted Thu, January 24, 2008 - 9:45 PM by  nommolucas

thought i had my life
all-a- figured out
thought i knew what love
was-all about
and then i had to watch
that damn- vid-e-o
and then my wife said
she didn't- really know
if i was the one
after- all these years
i thought our son had calmed
her- many fears
now i've got tears and
doubt- in my head
and now, it's true i
question- ev'rything
and now i don't have
anything- with which to cling
i'm losing all my focus, don't
have- much to sing
about- but
one thing's for sure can't
take- no more facts
ain't nothin' left to do
but get- high on wax

this job's all well and good
but- i still feel
somethin's out there waitin' for
me- 'on the real'
is patience really a virtue?
i can't say
should i still follow
the- te this way?
if anyone's got answer's
please- let me know
for why should we reap
what- they do sow?
or should i make it up
as i- go along
is there really any truth
be-yond this song?
our kids are taught to answer and
not- to question
life may be a quick-
succession of
busy nothings but
one thing's for certain
life really does tax
nothin' i can do 'cept
get- high on wax

    High On Wax

    The needle moves closer
    to dark, silky skin
    slowly, almost sultry
    gently gliding into
    that long
    long
    groove

      hey there mr. b,
      what d'you say?
      when you get
      high on wax
      who do you play?

        Where to begin?
        With what smooth track?
        With Zeppelin?
        Roberta Flack?

        From Aretha to Oleta
        From Floyd to Styxx to Yes
        From the shtick of Arlo Guthrie
        to Will Ackerman's finesse

        I've a fix for all my problems
        I've a pill for every pain
        Every drop of stress or worry
        Every ounce of daily strain

        See? The needle's on the 'table
        and my skins are lined with tracks
        every telltale indicator
        says I'm getting high on wax.
