DANCING PLUMBER
One day the toilet was messed up
I called a plumber.
He came over said what’s the problem
I said I don’t know take a look
He said okay, give me a second
He danced

Still I Fly High / R.I.P. David Thomas
Even tho dad you died
Still I fly high
You can talk about him all you want
but you don’t know him so what’s the point
but still I fly high.
To this day thinking of you is like
brings memories that make me wanna cry
but still I fly high
I look myself right in the eyes
but still I fly high
Is it you or me that makes me think you can still
give me a high five
Still I fly high
Still I fly high
Still I fly high
Still I fly high
So they talk about you that’s cool
but they don’t know you so they are the fools
but still I fly high.

Still I succeeded
Do you like to see low down
Like something heavy on my back
Do you feel my pain
When everyone just gain on me
I succeeded
Can you hear the bad thing
That people say about me
I succeeded
They spread many thing
Lying over and over it just make believing
I succeeded
Cry every night want to take
Things off my chest
I succeeded
