HOP

When you hop around the world
Millions of people you meet

The duration has a lot to say
You make friends for eternity

But when you skip to the next destination
The world is not that simple

Newer people on the horizon
Old ones in the fray

As your circle of life gets bigger
The distance with the loved ones grows larger

In this day of the information age
You’d think things are easy to say

Stuff changes with the time
Can’t be stuck on a speed bump all the while

No matter how many people you hold
At the end of the day you'll be alone

Drifting is a part of life
Cause life is lead in phases alone
 
No need to lament the loss of one
Round the next corner, another is found!

KING KENNY


He hails from Scotland
Home of the scotch

Arrived from Celtic
To the banks of Mersey (His home forever be)

Bob saw a vision in 1977
A sound investment of 440,000!

Taking the role of shaking the Kop
Swaying Liverpool all the way to the top
As if scoring goals was not enough
Accepted the mantle of coaching the club

Absolute glory achieved on the front
Bidding goodbye after so many cups

The club turned to others to pull his work forward

Everything achieved in that space of time
Except the coveted Premier League prize

Then came the yanks with promises galore
Took everything, even the Anfield floor

Two decades passed without sheer luck
LFC staring down the barrel of a gun
In such times of terrible crises
Stars moved for trophies elsewhere

But all was not lost
The club had been bought

Entered John Henry
Spoke like a visionary

Lead the legend back to his home
Boosting the kitty with millions in store

The fans elated, the players fearless
Singing in unison, "You'll Never Walk Alone"
The other clubs shaking in their very bones

The legend spoke, the legend showed
The legend brought in some fresh imports

What followed in 6 months
The whole world did see
Off with bad memories
Wiped the slate clean

Few hours from now the season begins
We’ll overturn any situation

Hope restored back in our hearts
"Come on, you Reds, let's make the start!"

Glossary:
Kop – One of the most decorated, passionate of football stands across the world inspired by
The Battle Of Spion Kop
Celtic – Celtic Football Club
Mersey – River Mersey, Liverpool
Bob – Bob Paisely; one of the greatest managers in LFC history
John Henry – Current owner, LFC
Anfield – LFC Stadium
Red – LFC fan

THE WORLD


What's going on with the world?
Today you're sleeping, tomorrow you're not

The world witnesses a fanatic blown
Taking thousands for his illicit cause
This stirs a furore in people's minds
Thousands again, blown out of kind
The darkest day in the history of mankind

The water in the seas going round and round
The tsunami comes, the riots die
The earth quakes and screws the world
That’s the time when the bombings rest
What evil wants, nature does

There is not much place left in the world
The odds against us are all to none

Mother nature, are you really mad?
Mother nature, are we that bad?
Mother nature, why am I so sad?
Mother nature, let us create a new fad...

With all the hope we pray to you
To find something better to do
A species god-only-knows-how-old
Is begging to be... undone

HAPPY


Everything is just right
Nothing can go wrong
The price you paid was worth the wait

Your mind acting like a broiler
But you pull up the strength to conquer

Take inspiration from the environment
Arrest desperation on the horizon

The moment we call happy
No way is it at all sappy

Imprinted in the back of the mind
Cherish the memory till the end of time

Things that make you elated with joy
Share it with the right one, no need to be coy

Whining will give you no sense of relief
Happiness will give you a blissful sleep

Its up to you what you choose
In memory of a grey goose!

The Road, My Friend

A loner is a loner is a loner

Cruising down the highway
At the speed of 99
The outside a blur
The inside a blah

Its all the road that leads to what
The road to love
It's the broken one

The road to lust
It's the chosen one

The road to hate
It's begotten me

The road to life
It's a nece-ssity!

The road don’t judge like a woman scorned
The road don’t stab like a jealous foe

The road can give any reason to hate
Even pissed off drivers ask for a rebate!

Road rage is just a phase
Every passenger has a ghostly face

Things relating to another life
The throttle makes you forget those bites

Shift into 5th, let her rip
The engine roaring into bits

All the horses bursting with life
Thumping their power without a fight

Blare the music through the roof
Scare the poor dog going ‘woof’

The hair on your neck standing up
Everything else falling in the plot

The world seems right from behind the wheel
Anything is possible if you feel
All the horses and not the Kings men
Can even get Humpty together again!

HO HUM DE DUM

That guy’s got a Porsche
Ho hum de dum
A girl stood you up
Ho hum de dum
Your neighbour cracked a rib
Ho hum de dum
The pope is a git
Ho hum de dum

Ignorance is bliss
What don't touch you, don't affect you
And what does affect you, might not touch you
For the shit that definitely touches and affects you
Ho hum de dum

Your love's been a waste
Ho hum de dum
The girl is still great
Ho hum de dum
You find a new mate
Ho hum de dum
Life isn't that great
Ho hum de dum

Whatever happens may be for good
That don't help when she stirs you up
Stares at you with utmost disgust
Gazing away, far, far away
Let it go beyond the fray

You're not a bad guy
Yet many women make you the fall guy

The world is on fire
Ho hum de dum
The situation is dire
Ho hum de dum
The glaciers are melting
Ho hum de dum
The activists are pelting
Ho hum de dum

Turn the tube and all hell’s broken loose
Some schmuck, for his inane cause
Planted bombs that are set off
Sorrow and grief everywhere
Wait a few days it’ll all go away

They blow the trumpet
Ho hum de dum
Break the phone set
Ho hum de dum
Left maybe right
Ho hum de dum
Wrong is surely right
Ho hum de dum

No matter what happens normality ensues
While people on the left are still getting sued
The media's on fire reporting the truth
What remains to be seen is if it is true

You read this rhyme
Ho hum de dum
Thought it was grand
Ho hum de dum
Maybe it was bland
Ho hum de dum
Just go take a hike
Ho hum de dum!

INDEED

They say a friend in need is a friend indeed
But the friend who does the deed is not in need

I get out at 2 am
There’s a truck on the road
I see it miles away
He’s probably heading home

He must be in a hurry
Cause he cuts all my space

I swerve to the left but it’s too late
I’m thrown off the ledge
But the truck’s pulled away

At this dire-needy-hour
You call upon your friend

He comes in a haste worried about you
Ready to paste one to the guys who did this to you

This is a man who does not fight
Come the hour he's breaking his own rules

Such is a bond between two friends
Even though there's only so much one can tell

People who do not have such friends
Tend to make fun calling them names

Never will they understand the friendship deed
Till someone helps them indeed!
