Front and Center

"Total Recall" kind of sucked
But one part of it I dug
Was how Mary's front and center
Had an auxiliary milk jug

I'm a big ol' fan of fun bags
Even on a Martian whore
And she had a nice pair of jubblies
With bonus fifty percent more

Like solitaire, had tri-peaks
A trifecta of skin sacks
Her name should have been Wendy
'Cause she had the triple stacks

On second thought, though Arnie can't act
And I forget half the plot
I remember the trey of zongas
I guess I liked that film a lot.

FRONT AND CENTRE
Give Our Regards To The Earth’s Core

I want your close proximity
Front and centre right here with me
A good short leash so you don’t stray
Bound and shackled baby every day

Oh yeah I know you wanted to be a star
Lookee baby well here you are
A stage right here for you to perform
And a one man audience that adores you

That’s how I feel baby about you
Give it time, you come to love me too

I clubbed you down and dragged your hair
I m a caveman baby welcome to my lair
Don’t think of it as captivity
Just a better chance to get to know me

You’ll see I’m a sweet sweet guy
But relationship issues have made me shy
You’re the temple before which I kneel
you’ll understand better when your wounds have healed

and realise just how I feel about you
Give it time, you come to love me too

I’ve been stalking you so long that I know it can’t be wrong,
Baby yeah your’re gonna love me too
Stop screaming in my ear baby nobody can hear
Baby yeah your’re gonna love me too
I got a suit of human skin that I look fantastic in
When you see it well you’re gonna love me too
Baby baby acquiesce, yeah you know it’s for the best
Baby yeah your’re gonna love me too

That’s how I feel about you
Forever, forever, I’m gonna keep you front and centre
That’s how I feel about you
Forever, forever, I’m gonna keep you front and centre

Front and Center

Turned on, to Caragh Avenue
Everything flashed red then back to blue
Slow motion scene, you'd not rehearsed
Remnants of a scream, could still be heard

All my life I've been waiting to arrive
Least that's what you told me on that night

Cast back, three hours before
Sat in O' Shea's, eyes on the door
So if you pour me, another hour glass
I swear this time, I wont drink so fast...skylined

All my life I've been waiting to arrive
Least that's what you told me the night you died
I guess some people never get their day
But tonight my friend you're front and center of stage

Front and Center

By Steve Durand

Dedicated to my wife, Jan, in honor of our 25th wedding anniversary

Inspired by this place:

http://www.hawaiiweb.com/maui/html/site ... _tree.html


In the center of Lahaina
Down on Front street by the sea
Near the old Lahaina courthouse
Is a special place to me

Many years ago I went there
And by luck I chanced to see
A sublime young lady sitting
Underneath the banyan tree

She came there seeking shelter
From the harsh Hawaiian sun
And the moment that I saw her
I knew she was the one

I took one look at her
And she took one look at me
Then and there we fell in love
Underneath the banyan tree

And once we were together
The days flew by without care
As we enjoyed the fragrance
Of hibiscus in the air

As expected of young lovers
We truly were carefree
As we shared romantic evenings
Underneath the banyan tree

We got to know each other
As we watched our lives unfold
We talked about our dreams
And what might our futures hold

Finally I asked her
Darling, will you marry me?
And that spring we had our wedding
Underneath the banyan tree

Now many years have passed
As the balmy breezes blew
Our love has multiplied and deepened
As the banyan tree's roots do

All this time we've stayed together
And we've raised a family
And to think that it all started
Underneath the banyan tree

As we grow old together
And reminisce about the past
We find it so surprising
How it all went by so fast

So I sing this serenade
On the anniversary
Of the day that we first met
Underneath the banyan tree

Good morning brothers and sisters
I'm here for my piece of the pie
I want you to do what I tell you to
and for now you can reach for the sky

Rent-a-cop stay on the floor
put the closed sign on the door
leave the bills in the bottom drawer
Cause I'm here for a bigger score
Yes I'm here for a bigger score

I want to have all your attention
don't even think of calling the cops
till that tumbler drops
till the vault's been breached
and my goal's been reached
and the credit default swaps

Push-poll my way across the nation
to get real financial regulation
I'll rob any bank that I can enter
to get this issue front and center

For years they figured us for fools
didn't care who they abused
bought the right to rewrite the rules
to 'heads they win or tales you lose'

Now payback time it is a bitch
Let's stick it to the very rich
take two fistfulls of their cash
and watch this motherfu*ker crash

Push-poll my way across the nation
for real financial regulation
I'll make a homeowner of every renter
to get this issue front and center
