Mustn't Grumble
Mustn’t Grumble
Thinks he’s the bee’s knees
One big bumble

Mustn’t grumble
Staggering on
He’s bound to stumble

And God's whole house was swathed with hues untold.
All about the orange glowed, crimson leaves displayed.
The ceiling now was light with blue.

Will be watching all your moves
One day you'll see it proves
That the one from the past
Was always first to give h...

The Clown
The Clown
This make-up’s dried upon my face,
gone cracked with age and wear.
I can’t remove this absurd mask.
You’ll never know how much I care.
The girl with pretty eyes will smile,
the clown, so sad, will sigh.
Another chance has passed away.
Another star lights the sky.
You see the clown and laugh at him,
I turn away and cry,
