(Here's another special Emmanuel Endorphin series bonus re-post that does great justice for the series I feel. To someone who shares my great admiration for the happy little treehugger! (giggles) ) Happy Accidents By: Noah Eaton 7/11/03 So I started by making the culdesac, my own Hollywood & Vine Carrying the sights and sounds like lunchboxes Taking advantage of collecting the whole set in time This has to be Rosie The Riveter's secret adventure But my new venture has never been so much better It's an original sin to be fettered But it never hurts to be spill the colors in this matter... I'm simply a contradiction living in harmony Don't expect anything from me, Just watch me make another happy accident, I've got no routine, no objective Cause I want to use both of my legs And see what kind of dances I can invent... I'd never boast, I'd never tote But I could rock this boat like a tiki host, I can get the cats coming in packs like Sammy Davis Jr. And keep them entertained in my Dean Martin demeanor Or meet me on the African Queen and we'll go for a saunter Morning Glory, you could be the next Katharin Hepburne You could accomplish much more than you think But you've got to be willing to sink in the drink... I'm simply a contradiction living in harmony Don't expect anything from me, Just watch me make another happy accident I've got no routine, no objective Cause I want to use both of my legs And see what kind of dances I can invent... Yeah, I still watch re-runs of "Joy Of Painting" Picking up the last pieces of a third eyes philosophy And Bob Ross comes keep whispering in my ear, "Happy little trees need a couple little friends" neighboring And you know that we don't make mistakes We have happy accidents, and there is no shame In spilling the paint over the big picture frequently You just have to perform a tad of cabin-ectomy So now my sole purpose is to simply tie in the loose ends While making sure there's plenty of cloth still to wedge I've got the pacified nature and eyes of Mr. Bill But I've also got a hippy-spirit to spill I've got insecurities, but I've got determinations I'd always be Tonto if you asked to play cowboys and indians I come in peace along with my opinions If you can't share them, then what's the use of breathing? I'm simply a contradiction living in harmony Don't expect anything from me, Just watch me make another happy accident I've got no routine, no objective Cause I want to use both of my legs And see what kind of dances I can invent I'm simply a Discovery Channel junkie With a Cartoon Network personality I can set fire to my guitar And have my octaves screaming Seeing what I can create alongside God... "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" Mother Teresa |

"I'm simply a contradiction living in harmony Don't expect anything from me, Just watch me make another happy accident I've got no routine, no objective Cause I want to use both of my legs And see what kind of dances I can invent" ~ and you, my living contradiction, dance your way further into my heart with every poetic dance that you choreograph! Love you, my Angel friend! EA |
