Lyrics:

Song To Mom
(19780) Peter Black

Oh Jean
Your picture hanging on the wall
Taken so many shades away
Before the starting of it all
After the potter glazed the clay
You must have fired the finer side of me

Oh Jean
My brothers are with me too
And all my sisters and all the girlies too
After all, for tonight
Aren't we the chosen few?
Can I help it now if I'm relatin to you?
After the potter glazed the clay
You must have fired the finer side of me 

Oh Jean
More than any picture on the wall
Went ahead and did it
Created it all
Seeing let's me know I see
How it is you pushed me
Brought me through that sea
After the potter glazed the clay
You must have fired the finer side of me

Oh Jean
Your picture hanging on the wall
Taken so many shades away
Before the starting of it all
After the potter glazed the clay
You must have fired the finer side of me

my mom: Jean Marie 1932

 

The Best She Could
(1992) Peter Black

She came protected in a monied world
When she wore her heart on her sleeve it was a flag unfurled
I'm telling you that she was a she
And she didn't use needles, that I guarantee

She always did the best she could
To try and change the world for the good
Yeah, Mary Payne tried
Yeah, at least, Mary Payne tried

She was kinda manic about the food she ate
Always a whole food salad and it always tasted great
She was always out there in an exercise
That she could be so vulnerable was hard to realize

Her sex was an alter free from sacrifice
She always looked oh so clean, and she always looked nice
She gave of herself and her time and her bread
Now who could believe how she got dead

I got friends that been junkies, I got friends that are gay
But for a miracle none of them had gone away
Life is full of contradictions, I know life is unfair
But that she should be the first to go finally made me care

Yeah she always did the best she could
To try and change the world for the good
Yeah, Mary Payne tried
Yeah, but Mary Payne died

 

 

Here It Comes
(2006) Peter Black

Here it comes, here it comes
Here it comes, here it comes

Racing across the field, it's on the run
Here it comes, the morning sun
The morning dew bejewels the grass
The day is here, ain't life a blast?

Time to send the kids off to school
Find the stone, hone the tool
Time to begin the daily chores
Mow the grass, sweep the floors

Time to prepare the mid day meal
Time to take it all in, all you can feel
So it goes on through the day
Help plant the crop, stack the hay

Safe at home and fully fed
It must be time to be headin for bed
Snuggle close, give a hug, steal a kiss
It surely don't get much better than this

The star filled blanket fills the night
All is good, all feels right
Yet you can still feel it on the run
Yes, here it comes, the morning sun
